Almost 3 years ago I bought a computer, where the highest restrains would be for gaming. This is now in repair shop for the third time(with 3 differents problem) in less than 1,5 years. The 2 first times it took over 3 weeks to get it back, and from the looks of it it might take that if not longer this time too. So they say that if it takes more than 3 weeks, I will be able to get another computer from them instead. So now I'm browsing their shop for computers in the same price range my old one was in(or a bit below since they might give me one based on performance and not the exact money).
I don't remeber what prossesor my old machine had, but the Grafikk cards was NVIDIA Ge (something) 9800*2 ,( I had 2 of them), dedicated RAM is unknown and I can't chech since the repair shop has it. Total RAM is 4GB, but I plan on adding another 4 if they can fix the computer in time.
On their shop I found 2 computers who both had the 3GHx Intel Core i5 - 2320 prossesor and 8 GB RAM, but the cheapest one had a NVIDIA GeForce GT 545 with 3072 dedicated memory, while the one that costed a bit more had a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550TI with 1024 MB dedicated memory. What is the difference between these 2 and is dedicated RAM so little importent that it even with 3 times the amount the other one is more expensive? And how are thsoe compaired to my old computer?
I'm also looking at one slightly more expensive(almost the same as I paid for my old computer 3 years ago). This one has a 3,4 GHz Intel Core i7- 2600 prossesor. A NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560TI with 1280 dedicated RAM and a total of 12 GB RAM. It also has support for Direct X 11.
I relise this might not be the correct forum to ask these questions, but I don’t know where else to ask, and I have absolutly no ide what all these letters and numbers means expet big numbers is probably good and I know about RAM and storage.
So if anyone that understand this gibberish could help a girl out with some input, I would be very greatfull
