What video card will enhance the gaming on my HP 8530f Desktop?

I am looking to upgrade my new computer's video card as it will not play tiger woods golf game which surprised me. It said that there was not enough video memory. Any help would be appreciated.|||Is this the HP m8530f Media Center Desktop??? If so, it has a PCI-Express 16x slot, which is occupied according to the page listed in the sources. You can get any PCI-Express card these days, though, with some problems with nVidia, I'd probably go with an ATI card (http://www.amd.com/us-en/). Which card is the best? Depends on what your wallet can spend without burning a hole in it. There are so many current cards out there on the market right now you can go with almost any today and be good. I'd go with a card with at least 256MB of video RAM on the card to play a lot of today's modern games.



IF your desktop isn't the m8530f, you'll need to find the specs on HP's website, to find out what graphical card slots you have. There are 3 main types these days, the most current/recent is the PCI-Express (black slot(s))which is replacing the AGP slot (Looks like PCI, but reversed and brown colored), and then finally the old legacy, PCI (just plain PCI, white colored).|||when did you buy your computer, if it was 4 years ago or later than you need a new computer because technology advances so quickly, buy a new computer cause even the cheaps ones now day have like 2gb ram, i was looking at a toshiba laptop for 400 pounds with 4gb ram and 260gb hard drive



hope i helped|||Whats your budget?



Graphics cards range in price from $40 to over $500
