    Can anybody please help me out. Please advice me on which graphics card to buy for under 150 euros. I mean Pci express card. Someone I know is getting it for me from this place-
    Graphic Cards PCI Express from XFX - computeruniverse.net

    Please if somebody has some time to check this out advice me which one to go for. I guess 10.1 support and hd support would be gr8 and also it should go with quad as well as dual (in compatibility).

    thanks in advance.

    Looks like 9800GT is the best card for you.

    Yeah, and you don't really need DX10.1 support. Virtually no proper 3D game out there requires DX10.1.

    Are there actually any games with DX10.1? :| I remember Assassin's Creed disabled a DX10.1 feature in an update and the performance got worse.

    Yeah, I think there are some DirectX 10.1 games but practically all of them can revert to DirectX 10.

    I would recommend an HD4850 if you cand find a deal. You won't regret it.

    ATI seems to have an edge on video card performance atm. HD4830 and HD4850 would be my picks, but if you're sticking with XFX, better go with a 9800GT

    IMO the XFX 9800GT is one of the best looking cards with a stock cooler.

    Yeah, honestly, ATI is the dominant company when it comes to 3D graphics at the moment. I would go for the 4850 instead of the 9800 GT or GTX.

    Hi, you should create your own thread on your question. :)

    Sounds like you need an upgrade, but first, what are your computer specs, and what's the game you want to play??

    That doesn't mean anything, honestly. We need to know your computer specs, not just the brand name of the PC. Compaq has been making Presarios for ages. :(

    In any case, Need for Speed : Undercover has the following MINIMUM requirements :
    Frankly, you should aim to have at least an Intel Pentium Dual-Core or better processor and a NVIDIA GeForce 8800 / 9600 or ATI Radeon HD 4650 graphics card. Would be good to have at least 2 GB of memory too.
