Best Answer

A good graphics card for low details on games is the nvidia 8800. I reccammend you don't get this just to be safe. To get normal to high graphics get the nvidia 9400. For high to best Graphics, get the nvidia 9800. For best Graphics, get the 260, 280, 285, 275, 290, (all nvidia).

That usually happens when your PC do not have enough video memory to handle that much graphics. Either try installing a graphics card or check whether the game files are installed right.

Can a desktop PC with i3 processor 6GB memory and 1TB hard drive be used for gaming?

You did not mention about any graphics card. First of all, you should use a good graphics card for gaming purposes.. 6 gb of ram is good enough to run hi-end games on very high (or ultra) settings, but without a graphics card, intel's inbuilt hd graphics neither run hi-end games on high settings, nor can use upto 6 gb of ram. This config will be good for gaming if you add a pci-e graphics card.

the answer to this question is entirely dependent on what you want to do with your computer. for instance for web browsing on board graphics is good. basically your graphics card is good if you get good frame rates (typically 30 ish) in whatever application you want it to run. for infromation on graphics cards you don't already own refer to forms and benchmarks to see if the card you want will provide the performance you want. if you would like to know what games can run on your computer google "can you run it?".
