Brehs..I'm looking for an upgraded video card and looking up information shyt might as well be Chinese. I'm using a raedonHD5670 and I want something with a decent size gap in quality...but than some shyt might not be compatible with my PC? :wtf: is this bullshyt?

make sure your motherboard has a pci express x16 slot...i would be surprised if it didn't. that's the only thing that would be a problem as far as compatibility.

i'm working with a gtx 560 ti right now and it is running Far Cry 3, Crysis 2 at max graphics. i have a 3rd gen i5 and 16 gigs of ddr3 ram, 1600 mhz.

Thinking about adding a wireless card to my desktop.

I looked up some on Amazon and I'm like :dwillhuh:
[ame=http://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-TL-WN951N-300Mbps-Wireless-Adapter/dp/B0034CL2ZI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1356752580&sr=8-1&keywords=internal+wireless+card+for+desktop]Amazon.com: TP-Link TL-WN951N 300Mbps Wireless N PCI Adapter: Electronics[/ame]



I've never seen anything like that before. Do any of yal have something like this? Or do yal just rock with a usb adapter?

Another thing I'm curious about is, possibly using my wireless adapter in addition to my ethernet connection. Is that possible?

I use this to free up my other usb ports. Plus they are faster
