My computer


Ok, I'm getting a new computer and here's the specifications:

Acer Aspire

Pentium core 2 duo E4300 (I think thats about 3.8 GHz)

2gb DDR2

320 GB

DVD-dual

Vista premium

and I believe a 128mb graphics card.




Now I'm wondering if I should spend the extra $200 on a 256mb graphics card. I plan to use it for some pc gaming, and I hope to have a game like halo 2 on medium settings.

So my question here is if I should get the graphics card. Can you help me?

1.8 ghz it is realy, unless you are talking about combind..

but yes i do suggest a stronger card. Some games accualy require you to have 256mb on your card now right?

anyway I have a stronger computer with a nvidea 7900GS and so far it works great (almost all stats on crysis on high for example)
