I'm interested in buying a graphics card(pcie) for my pc. but i'm not sure which is good on a value for money and performance.
I'm from Singapore and these are the pricing for some of the cards from hardwarezone.com(prices quoted in singapore dollars):
sapphire radeon x1550 512mb ddr2-$146/$149
SAPPHIRE Radeon X1600PRO HDMI 256MB-$215/$235
SAPPHIRE Radeon X1650PRO 512MB GDDR3-$149/$190

My budget is within 200 bucks but will not mind paying a little extra for it. besides, i hope it can last for a long time before i consider changing.

On a dell laptop, you can hit Function & F8 to toggle your laptop display with a connected projector. But what if your F8 key has quit working? Is there a software program I can use to toggle between the laptop screen and the projector screen? As of now I can't display my laptop screen on the external projector. Any tips?

I recently bought a EVGA 7950GT KO Superclocked 512mb Video Card. I know this is a higher end card, but i still seem to be having problems getting high settings on some simpler games. I know when i first installed it i had some power issues, and had to buy another power supply. When i first installed it said it needed to reduce quality to make sure my system was not damaged. I now have a new power supply, so how do i see/ makesure my video card is running at "full power" as it were? Thanks!

I have a HP Compaq, pre-made and such.
I have one really annoying question, I have a 24pin socket on the motherboard for power but it came with a 20pin connector in that socket when I got it, it does work, so it obviously is doing its job.
I have a better psu than the one that came with it on order, and that has a "20+4pin" connection for both types of motherboards.
When it comes and I install it should I use the 24pin connection or should I just plugin the 20pin connector.

And what do the extra 4 pins do in these motherboard power sockets anyway?

Thanks,

Daniel
