The computer keeps changing the color bit back to 8bit every time it restarts?
Sounds like a faulty video driver. You probably need to download and install an updated video driver. Without knowing what kind of video hardware you have, it's difficult to be more specific than that.
Does a xfx radeon hd 4870 x2 2gb pcie fit in a antec nine hundred two chassi?
Yes it does, i have one inside my antec 902 case, but its a tight fit.
A giff is an acronym, meaning it's short for something. It means Graphical Interchange File Format. I hope this comes to use for you.
Your lucky I found your question my friend, because I have the best answer and a perfect website with great deals for that stuff. Well the website is called tigerdirect.com. They have an nvidia 9800 which is a great gaming card for the low pice: $99.99. Also there is the nvidia 260 or 265, the nvidia 280 or 285, and the nvidia 295. These cards are better and can run any game on full graphics but the price is higher. I hope this is handy info for you and it comes in great use.
Do you still need a graphics card if the motherboard has a VGA port?
If your motherboard already has a VGA port, you do not need an additional graphics card. However, depending upon what you plan to do with your computer you may want one. Some motherboards come with fairly low-end graphics chipsets so if you plan to do much gaming, 3-d graphics or the like, you may find the onboard video is insufficient. The good news is that you can always add one on later if you discover you need one.
Can you upgrade your 2.5 shader version to a 3.0?
you would ned a new graphics card to do that with shader 3.0 support if you don't already have it
Can you take a PS3 graphics card out and put it in a computer?
No. The "graphics card" in a PlayStation 3 is integrated into the motherboard.
Upgrade options for your Dell Dimension 2300?
The upgrade options for a Dell Dimension are very limited. Consider putting the money towards a new computer instead. You would likely receive far better results for not much more money. If you truly wish to upgrade, here is what you can "max out":
The Dell Dimension 2300 supports a maximum of 1 GB, using two 512 MB PC133 SDRAM modules.
The Dell Dimension uses Socket 478 a maximum FSB of 400 MHz. The fastest processor you could thus run in this system is a Pentium 4 @ 2.8 GHz. Make sure you buy the correct one, as there is also a 2.8 GHz Pentium 4 with a 533 MHz FSB. If you put this one in your system instead, it will run at 2.1 GHz
There are no AGP or PCI-E slots in your system, so you are extremely limited in video card performance. You can find some cards based on fairlymodern chipsets, but they will cost more than their PCI-E counterparts.
This one actually isn't too bad to upgrade. As long as you have a BIOS dated 2002 or later, you can use practically any IDE / PATA drive on the market. SATA is possible with an add-in PCI card, but you probably won't see any performance advancement over PATA.
Intel graphics media accelorator for mobile 3d settings?
controls open GL 3d settings for gma. asynchronous flip-turn to on to disable v-sync-on will improve performance off will try to correct tearing in video. triple buffering turn to off for better performance on for better quality .depth buffer bit depth. 16 bit to improve performance though some games and applications require it to be set at 24, so i recommend leaving it at default or 24. force s3tc texture compression-turning this on will improve performace by compressing textures and using less video memory on rendering textures. leave it off for slightly better quality. force fxt1 texture compression is the same.driver memory footprint. turn to high if you want to draw more system memory to slightly improve performance but no better quality no matter where it is set. so i recommend it to be on high unless you don't have a lot of ram memory. texture color depth 32 will improve quality. 16 improve performance though 32 may be required for some games and applications so i recommend setting this to default or 32. lastly anisotropic filtering will improve quality when set to on, you will get better performance with this turned off. I hope i was of some help,

Yes, GeForce was a family of video cards released by NVidia. There were 4 GeForce families i think, each with their own ranges of models (GeForce 2 MX for example). Now NVidia uses notation similar to ATi's system.
Is business PC better for gaming in terms of graphic card CPU etc?
No. Business machines are usually only used for clerical activities, and as such are often equipped with low-grade video cards and CPU. Anything to save a buck.
Can you upgrade or replace graphic card on tablet PC HP Pavilion tx1250ee?
Well from what I looked at no. If you had a desktop tower it's always much easier to do. What processor do you have? If you have Intel I'm guessing you have an Intel HD 3000-5000. If that's correct then no, because that graphic card is built into the processor so no you cannot. If you have an NVIDIA or AMD it could be possibly replaced .
What kind of graphics card does a hp pavilion a6500f have?
the HP a6500f has an onboard NVidia 7100 128mb...(bla, could be better)
What motherboard is used in the hp m8120n?
Intel P965
More detail (supplied by moneypress.com):
If you have an ATI video card, you do not need an NVIDIA driver. Ubuntu includes a "Restricted Drivers Manager" that will automatically download and install any proprietary drivers it detects your card needs.
There is no way to upgrade the memory on a graphics card. The "limit" of memory is the maximum amount of shared video memory that the graphics card will occupy in the system's RAM. The best way to get better graphics performance in this situation is to buy a similar NVIDIA card and SLI them together.
PCI-e card cannot be used on the 4600 motherboard.
How much memory is on your graphics card?
If you are asking me then 256meg dedicated... if you want to know how to find out and you are running windows
start->programs->Accessories->System tools->System Information
Select components from the left hand side.
Click on Display
on the Right you should see "Adapter RAM" that's how much you have.
What criteria affect how much video RAM is needed for a video card to hold one frame buffer?
The screen resolution(in pixels), the number of colors, and the enhancements to the color information affect how much video RAM is needed for a video card. Pg 389 of A+ Guide to managing your pc, 6th edition.
What is the difference between Intel 946gz express chipset and ati radeon graphic cards?
the Intel is integrated into the motherboard and the radeon is separate is the visual difference....the latest integrated gpu's are still weaker than cards from 2001 from companys like ati or nvidia......
What is a virtual graphic card?
This is a misnomer, for a built in or on board Graphics's Card. This is where Graphics's Card is built into the Main or Motherboard as a Graphics's controller chip and sharing the on board RAM. These are for entry level systems or Servers. If you want proper performance get a good Graphics's Card, you won't be glad you did until you see someone's system with out one.
