What video card do I need on a Dell Inspiron 1545 playing Fallout 3?

I have a problem when I try to play Fallout 3 on my Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop. I tested my computer with the System Requirements Lab and he told me that I need an upgrade. I have a Mobile Intel (r) 4 Series Express Chipset Family.  He said that the Minimum that I need for my computer is Direct X 9.0 c compatible video card with 256 MB RAM (NVIDIA 6800 or better/ATI X 850 or better).  I looked this up, but I can only find ones for desktop computers. Do you know what I should get the video card and what one is for my computer?

Generally, you may not get a new video card for your laptop, but if you can contact so that they can install it for you, unless you know how to install mobile video cards yourself.

I looked towards the top of your machine and it looks like you have the possibility to have a 256 MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD4330 for your machine. That would probably be it. I don't know what type of processor you have, but this card should work for you. Integrated Intel cards are not good for games at all.

Good luck.

  • Pavilion a6530f: what video card installed works for Windows 10 and a 300W power supply?

    I have a6530f a desktop Pavilion PC.  I am currently running Windows 7 and am interested in upgrading to Windows 10.  I get and error message when you try to install the W10.  "NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430".  I think I need to improve my video card.  Can what video card I install that will work for Windows 10 and is rated for the power supply 300W in my lap?  I'm not very techie.

    Many of these inexpensive graphics cards for Newegg.com should work with Windows 10. Just watch for those who require a 300 watt power supply system or less.

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s3720f: what video card should I buy?

    I want to add a new video card (not too expensive) for my old HP Pavilion Slimline s3720, but I do not know what video card to buy, because there are far too many choices. I know that the new card must be low profile with a half support so it can fit into the currently available in the motherboard slot. I hope that Conect my Dell UltraSharp 1708FP 17-inch LCD flat monitor VGA on this new card to get the best resolution and graphics. Can someone give me a recommendation indicating which card to buy? Please be specific. Thank you.

    The slimelines should never require a lot of video.  Your 2008 model circa was Vista.  Updates drivers ended with WIN 7. It's a miracle you got WIN10 without drivers available is another story.  Another factor is the skinny 160W PSU. That limits your options if you have a.  The common consensus is that either.  added heat from a graphics card, the likely additonal to a new power supply really outweighed costs.

  • Video card GeForce GTX645 and two monitors Dell

    Just place an order for a Dell XPS PC 8700 with a GeForce GTX645 video card. I'm trying to figure out how I'll be able to connect my two Dell monitors to the video card. My monitors are a Dell 2407WFP-HC 24 '' and a Dell IN2020M 20 ". I'm fairly certain that the 24 "monitor has a DVI - D connector, and I think (but I'm not sure) the 20" monitor also has DVI - D.

    It appears by looking at the specs for the GeForce GTX645 there a port DVI - D and DVI - I port. If this is the case, how can I connect two monitors using DVI - D video card?

    -Larry

    Yo is not an adapter to hook up 2 monitor DVI - D DVI - I and DVI - D + HDMI + [...] video card.

    DVI - I mean it is a compatible port DVI - D AND you could plug an adapter DVI / VGA for use an old monitor (VGA d - Sub 15 pin)

    DVI - I simply means that the DVI connector has some extra pins (on the right, under the direction, my mistake) with the data (if necessary)

  • How can I tell what video card will be compatible?

    Hi, I think I need a new video card, but I don't really know what the new card will be compatible with my computer, a m9077c of HP that works with Vista.I see there a Nvidia Geforce 8500 gt in there now, but looking for new to buy, I see things like (86JYAHG PVT XFX GEforce 8500 GT 450 mhz 512mbgddr2svideo/dvi/vga/pci-express16) for $35 , but then I just see alongside plain old GEforce 8500 gt for $111. What is the difference? I want just a replacement, it doesn't even have to be of the same brand, as long as this will work as well or better. How can I say that it will be compatible?

    You are the very welcome.

    Make sure you first uninstall the drivers for your card current video and then instead of restarting the PC, stop it and install your new card.

    Please post back and let us know how you like your new video card.

  • What is the cheapest video card that will work in a Dell Studio XPS 8100?

    Map of 5770 in my Studio XPS 8100 seems to be dying.  The screen keeps have corrupted and I can't do anything until I restart, then it happens after a few minutes.  I have a corsair cx430 power supply installed.

    The only weird thing I've noticed is that when it is started in safe mode the display seems to work perfectly.

    This machine is my server machine, so I only need to make a minimum of working directly on the machine.

    I think I should just replace the video card.  What is the cheapest video card / lowest which will work in my 8100?

    Thank you

  • Update video card: 630i Desktop - need advice

    I have a Dell XPS 630i Desktop 5 1/2 year, which usually is going very well, with enough power for most of the cases.  Recently implemented a 125 GB SSD as drive operating system.

    Anyway, in these last days, we got some random video artifacts appears sporadically on one or two of my two monitors Viewsonic (DVI for both of the Nvidia 9800GT 512 MB video card).  A small section of the screen will have the weird characters, sometimes a bunch of screen Flash, etc.  And a few times that there was a BSOD crash, with the video driver (nvlddmkm.sys) be responsible.

    I tell myself that there must be a bad video card or driver.  I have updated to the pilot the most recent on the Dell site (R213185, 181.30, Vista 64, A04) and well.  But I have this vague feeling that it is a hardware problem.  If it was a driver problem, why now after all these years, he suddenly would be problems, no recent changes to the system, etc..

    I used the tools of diagnosis from Dell, which has tested the performance of the video card, memory, etc, and no errors were detected, which is encouraging.

    I post here, to seek advice, in which case the video card end up being the problem and need to be replaced.

    1. If I decide to replace it, what are some good recommendations for a new map of video for this system (Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40 GHz, 6 GB of RAM).  I don't want exaggerated and pay for potential performance of video card I would not be obtained with the old motherboard, CPU, RAM, etc.

    2. the current system is sufficient for most cases, with the main shortcoming being the slow performance when you are working on my of Canon DSLR Raw files in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop, watch a HD video from camcorders or other sources, etc.  In this regard, replace the video card would provide a substantial improvement in this type of performance?

    3. I'd rather than replace the entire office by something more recent?

    All thought, popular point of view.

    Don

    Video card drivers can become corrupt and simply uninstall them and their update with a new driver may solve the problem.  It is more likely a hardware problem, a driver problem, even if the 9800 GT is an old map.  If he wasn't pushed hard with the game over the years, then it can last a long time. XPS 630i is a good system and with the Q6600 it is still worthy and can perform very well.  If you were to replace the video card, I'd just get something simple like the GTX 650 HERE, which would exceed the performance of the 9800 GT and not market much.

  • What video card is officially supported by Adobe for Mercury motor/GPU rendering?

    Hello

    At work, we have a couple new i7 machines that run the last CC using Adobe Premiere. Today, I noticed that the machines are made video on the CPU. There is no dedicated graphics card inside the machines that use the color first.

    We would like to buy Graphic cards for these machines to reduce rendering time.

    Question 1:

    What card is officially supported by Adobe for Mercury motor/GPU rendering?

    Question 2:

    Are supported new generation series Nvidia 1000 already? Are the new series AMD already supported (Sapphire Radeon RX 480 for example).

    Question 3:

    How our users will benefit rendering on video cards mentioned above, instead of rendering on the CPU.

    I know it will be difficult to predict because it would need more information, but I'm looking for a rough estimate that I can introduce to our users.

  • Satellite Pro L40 - what video card

    The boss plays the Knights of Baphomet iii and he crashes an hour and 40 minutes. The game recommends a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 or equivalent - I think that the lack of any video card is causing the problem.

    Is the recommended card good or is there one more suited to laptops and this one in particular.

    See you soon

    Graphics card can not be upgraded.
    What is overheating?
    If you can play nearly two hours, I assume that graphics card can handle with this game.

    To be honest, L40 is not portable game and you can't wait for the performance fabulous graphics card.
