Hi Guys

I have Asus RD vm motherboard with intel 2.66 dual core process and 1 gb transcend ram running Windows xp. Will Ati 4870 graphics card work with this board? Also let me know if I can play Crysis if I install this graphics card.

Thanks in advance.

There is no mobo such as Asus RD VM ( is it R.D. special edition mobo ?? :p ).
Mention your mobos full model name correctly or give a web link.

If your mobo has pci-e x16 slot then you will be able to use cards like HD4870 though note that you will require a good psu like corsair VX450W @ Rs. 4K for that :p

Yes the model number for my mother board is Asus P5RD2-VM
You can have a look at it at the below link

^^ The link you posted above is not correct as it pointing to some where else with some core i7 and core i5 mobos :p

BTW, is this your mobo :

According to the specs ( found on some other sites ) your mobo has 1 PCI Express x16 slot - so you will be able to use HD4870 but your cpu may bottleneck the gfx card ( what cpu do you have - mention the model name - use cpu-z to get the info ) and you will need a powerful smps like corsair VX450W @ Rs. 4K for HD4870. So I would recommmend you to go with HD4670 or a 9600GT instead ( provided you had some good psu )

Nividia GeForce GT 230M is a DirectX 10.1 graphics adapter based on the GT216 core. It has 48 shader cores and based on 40nm fab process.

You will be able to modern games mid to low settings @ 1024*768 or 800*600 resolution with this lappy :p

Alianware has some good gaming laptops based on GTX260M. Check dell india website site for pricing and availability. :p

Alianware has a laptop based on 2x GTX260M running in SLI and it's the best laptop for gaming IMO and the price is around Rs. 1.6 Lakh I think.

BTW, You will not be able to change the gfx card later on in case of laptops.

Crysis will give around 12-15 fps on your rig @ 1920*1200 resolution with all settings at very high and with max level of AA and AF with dx10 and 12-15 fps is very little to play a fps game.

BTW, as you are a new member and your post count is not so high you are not able to create any thread in Bazar section ( read the rules ) :p

^^Is ur CPU a Core 2 DUo?

Well, then upgrade to 2GB or 3GB RAM and grab a HD5670/HD5770 instead of a HD4870. Then u'll be able to play all games.
