ok so i have a 6 month old dell optiplex gx620 and it works just fine but i can play games. i cant even play warcraft. i think the problem is that i dont have a video card...just an intergrated one. i want to get a good one, not great, but descent. i think i may need to upgrade my power supply from 305 watts to 400-550 watts. would this be hard to do? what video card do you reccomend to me in the 100-150$ range that is good.

Like the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) moniters radiate harmful radiations that damage the human body. Do LCD Moniters also radiate these kinds of radiations??

I have 4 RAM slots on my computer. I have 2 1GB sticks of RAM in it. If I want to add more memory, do I have to do it in pairs or could I just install one 1 GB stick of RAM?

Thank you

I have an ATi Radeon Xpress 200 Integrated video card. It uses 128 mb of my shared memory.

I was wondering if there is a way to adjust how much memory it uses. I would like to bring it up to at least 512 mb.

I also looked in the Bios; I didn't find anything there.

Thank you

https://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/WishList/MySavedWishDetail.asp?ID=6325948 <------- go there to see what i am talking about. the main thing im concerned about is the Mother board and the actual casing of the computer. other than that rate how good you think this computer will be. (please do not complain about ati, unless you can give me a newegg link to a better ATI card.)

It's not really for me, but I told my buddy I'd ask my expert friends if he's making the right choice.
