I don't know much about computers so here it go's.
I bought flight sim x and the game isn't performing well it freezes all the time, it takes forever to load, it's almost unplayble. So i'm buying a video card.
This is what I'm getting

Before I buy it do you guys know if this works on a laptop and is it easy to install a video card? I mean I don't have to start taking shit apart right? I'm clueless when it comes to computers

how do you install a vid card on a laptop? :eek3:

 

wait .. on a laptop?

Video cards are integrated into the mobos on laptops. All video cards seen for sale are for desktops.

I'm not sure what your current connection type is either. (PCI-E, PCI-E 16X, SLI, AGP, PCI)

 

Thanks. So do these things just plug in or its more technical

 

I have a desktop also. But you lost me with the rest

 

did you build the desktop or buy it pre-made?

 

since no one else asked,

what are the game requirements? you might have another issue with directx or something so check that first before you drop 200 on a vid card.

 

if it's slow to load and laggy in game i'd upgrade ram

 

It was pre-made. Bought it like 5 years ago.
