Your opinions please!
Dear friends,
I am not into games,but i decided to buy a replacement for the Nvidia GE Force 8400 GS card i have with a new Graphics card for my Desktop PC! I got one card (75.9 $)shipped to my address, an ATI HD Radeon 5450 and it would not install in the first place!Is the price too high or reasonable? I am asking this b'cause the prices in USA, Europe and South Asia differ a lot and wanted to know whether i am taken for a royal ride! Do you think the old graphics card is sufficient enough? As such, i have no probs. with it!
Then i lugged my Desktop CPU cabinet to a techiee and he pointed out that the date of manu.was March 2010 ( almost a year back)and asked me whether it came completely sealed or not. The Package was not sealed when it was shipped out to me! He said this is nothing new in our Country(INDIA), and he too could'nt install it! So, i returned it to the shop.
Now, i want your opinions, regarding a graphics card for a non-gamer! I sincerely appreciate any informed opinions and a thousand thanks for the answers!
with regards,
