Asus Nvidia GT240

I bought this graphic card recently...
some people says it is a average GC...but some says its a poor performance GC..
can anyone give me the actual rating of this GC...

Is it necessary for me to buy a new GC... I just use this GC about 2 month...
it is such a waste if I buy a new one...but it does have lagg and performance issue with games that comes with heavy graphics specs...

What games do you want to play?

GT240 is a low-end gaming card, so basically, If you want to do some gaming then get at least GT240. GT240 is about the same performance with HD5670, which also a low end gaming card.

Gt240 is good for a low resolution like 1280x1024 or 1200x900. Above that, I'm pretty sure you need MORE than GT240. There's tons of cards out there, better and worse than GT240. But we choose a card based on our current specs, so we must know first, what is your CPU? RAM? MOBO? PSU? Monitor? Budget?

After that we could suggest you a proper card that suit your need...

What games do you want to play?

I'm currently playing mass effect 2...
other games i've played is COD MW2, and Battlefield 2....

and I'm looking forward to play MW3 and battlefied 3....and of course mass effect 3... 😉
but I've played the games low-medium graphic specs to prevent lagg and slow down....

do you think my PC can run MW3, Battlefield 3, and mass effect 3 later????
