So I am getting my father to get a new computer finally. He is one of those people who does not like to spend money, try's to save as much as possible. He has asked me to research his new video card and motherboard. Let's start with the videocard.
The way he described it is that he is most concerned with the best possible quality image for the lowest price. I told him there are many details with cards, once you get your price range and model, they are basically the same, but its performance in different programs and games that change. I told him videocards can be from 40 to 1000+ bucks. I know for a fact if he can pay lower then $100 he will be happy.
Now I remember there being quite a bit of sites that do reviews on cards, I remember at least one site that you could choose the make, ram, etc and it would list all reviews and compare cards. What are the best sites for reviewing videocards and there prices.
I am thinking for him it does not need to be amazing, he watches some downloaded shows, and browses the internet, so not much, but I told him he should probably get a card with at least 1GB of ram for future use. And if possible I don't want him to get a better card then mine (i have not updated yet and I have a 8800GT still). lol
So that was alot detail bugged together lol Any help would be great.
