New graphics card?
« on: June 20, 2010, 03:07:57 pm »
I want to upgrade the graphics card in my computer at home, but since the motherboard is on the wrong side of the tower, it can only be a single slot card, and there are capacitors sticking up right above the slot
Any suggestions? I'm not exactly sure what card I have in my computer right now

Get a non-sucky motherboard is the first step.

It was issued to me and its the only computer I can have hooked up to our network, and we can't fuck with the motherboard. Even if I got a "non-sucky" motherboard, it would still have to be backwards to work in my case.

Become an admiral and issue good computers.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.
