I am buying this monitor-
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824005097

I have a NVIDIA GeForce 5200 graphics card. It has a different connector than DVI. I need to know if this will effect the qualit of resolution and what type of converter cord I need and where I can purchase it. The monitor and my card are female. I was told that I may need to update my system altogether for optimum performance but I am hoping this is not the case. Any and all help regarding this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have some questions, i bought Guild Wars Nightfall like 2 weeks ago, but my video card couldn't stand it (Intel 8245G Graphics Controller of 64Mb), so I'm planning on buying a nvidia geforce series 7 video card (7600 GS PCI of 256Mb or 7300 LE of 128MB to be precise) so i wanted to know if it's good enough to run Guild Wars. I'm using a Dell OptiPlex GX260 with a processor Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.0 GHz and 1 Gb of RAM. So the questions are:

1. Is my pc good enough to stand the video card?

2. Is the video card good enough to run the game(I don't want it to run at high performance, just run it good medium or low quality i don't care) because with mine it keeps crashing since it's not good enough?

3. Are there any other good video cards that are same price or near to that (7300 LE is $35 and 7600 GS is $65)?

4. Also, is it too difficult to install it?

k, so those are my questions, i would thatnk u a lot if u can answer them :P

I have two HDDs already, but I want to install a third one. Would the PC read the HDD if I connect the CD-Rom IDE cable to it?

I am ditching my HP motherboard and Processor. I picked up a AMD Athlon 64 x2 2.8Ghz dual core CPU and now I need to find a motherboard. I am looking to spend $100-150. I have 3GBs RAM 2x1Ggb + 2x512mb and a radeon x1900GT. Running 3 HDDs, 1 SATA 2 ATA, and 2 DVD Burners both ATA. I don't need two IDE ports, i will probably ditch the burners and get a SATA one. Any suggestions on a good motherboard for those specs?

I want to buy a USB camcorder to transfer video onto my PC, because my PC has no Firewire ports.

Ineed to find out whether my PC has USB 1.1 or 2.1 ports, because I've read that 1.1 ports are useless to transfer video (I mean real video, not image stills), but USB 2.1 may work out fine. I need to be able to transfer from camcorder to PC to further upload to Youtube, but I want to avoid having to spend money buying a new PC which includes Firewire ports.

BTW, I checked my PC's BIOS (system setup screen) and there's no info about what version my USB ports are. Same with control panel/system/device manager/Universal Serial Bus Controllers/properties. No info in there either. I use Windows 2000 professional.

And of course, I couldn't tell, by looking at either my PC's USB ports or the USB cables I use for my cable modem and my laser printer, which kind of USB interface my PC has, because I'm not very computer-savvy, hardware-wise.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
