    Graphics card upgrade

    in Technical

    Posted

    Hey Faubio,thanks for the url,i always appreciate a good heads-up.unforunately i bought my current computer about 6 months ago,which was about 2 months before i discovered SL or i would have gotten a more compatible unit.and now that the SL bug has bitten me hard i sure am longing for a more graphics intensive experience with a better,more consitant frame rate and less lag/packet loss.my computer is a gateway SX2800-01 running an intel eaglelake card and a power supply in the mid 200's.Sl runs ok but it sure could be better lol.thanks again for the url and the model recommendation. LP

    MAJOR LAG

    I dont think its just you or your system settings.Ive also noticed an increase in lag the last week or so,even in areas or clubs where I used to have no problems at all.now im getting slower frame rates in some places and more lag than usual.I read somthing that said that LL had a web server system go down two saturdays ago.I was in world at the time with a friend around 4 or 5 pm. SL time,and we both crashed at the same time.after finally getting back in world I not only got a bunch of chatter from different people saying that they just crashed,but everything was rezzing in strangely for a couple of days after that and then cleared up.this might have somthing to do with this problem.also LL has been running rolling restarts area by area with a 5 min. warning that your area is shutting down,so maybe this part of a system wide upgrade.this has had me wondering also why this seemed to be happening,so Im glad to hear its not just me and maybe part of a bigger problem.

    I want to upgrade my graphics card to improve my SL experience. I am considering * INVIDIA Geforce 9400 GT * For one reason my tower is a slim line and this is designed as a slim model to fit such towers.Will this card run SL with better graphics,less lag,and less packet loss.And is it compatible with SL operating system? I'm also considering * Geforce 8800 * but i'm not sure if this will fit my tower housing and inner space available.Any info on the tech aspect of these issues will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, LP
