Hey all,
My son asked Santa for Spore this Christmas, and I noticed that Spore won't work on his video card. All of his other hardware seems to be in order, so I'm thinking I should be able to get things working if I just pick up a newer video card (won't be brand new as he has an older system).
My question is, which card would be the best that will fit into his system, and will it in fact be able to run Spore?
Spore's specs say that it requires a 128 MB video card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
My son's system specs are as follows:
Intel
Pentium 4 CPU (2.80 GHz)
512 MB RAM
His current graphics card is an Intel 82845G, which won't seem to run Civ4 so I'm doubting it'll run Spore. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks!
