LOL. With such an answer, I'm certainly not asking you anything computer related
wait wait hold up what i meant what if it can support that DX 10 or 11 then you can run most games on high settings because since most PC games are still in DX 10 and 9, so if you have support for DX 11, which is tesstallation making a big improvement in game design, and 3D effects. so if it has support for DX 11 then you can exspect that you can run just about any game from any games in the past till about maybe 2016 or longer. but also in the consideration of your CPU and RAM since as time goes on you will need more RAM for your apps, and your CPU to run them.
this is why i didnt why i wantto get into detail because i get worked up about this.
and yes there is a big difference from a dependent video card and independent video card, like i said if you free up what the dependent card is using then you have a better improvement in your gaming/preforming experience. why ? because DEPENDENT VIDEO CARDS uses one of your CPU and some amount of RAM, for example if you have a dual core and like 4GB of drr2 ram then it would show like 4GB of ram but 3.5 of USABLE ram if you right click my computer and click properties. but for the cpu you can't tell but i know it uses the CPU because there's nothing else that can do the calculations. so as you can see if you have a dual core and you are running a game then it kind of becomes a single core. and also FOR INTEL USERS, if you do not already know intel uses hyper-threading which means each core has two threads where you and input and output data, so in a simple term if you have 1 PHYSICAL core, you get VIRTUALLY 2 cores. so do the math n*2=?. also its improves CPU perfomance from 20%-30%.
but nonetheless you COULD free up those if you add a dedicated video card.
sorry for the late reply, i have a lot of things going on this summer.
and to the rest of you guys thanks for the replies very helpful.
i learned a lot from you guys and saved me from making a mistake.
thanks to all of you.
