I currently have an older ASUS motherboard (M3A78-EM) with an on-board AGP graphics card Radeon HD3200. The Windows Experience rating shows 3.9 for Windows Aero, although the Business Gaming figure is 5.3; all the other ratings are 5-6. Should I be trying to replace this GPU?
I do not do any high-demand gaming at the moment, but I do use Sibelius 6 which demands a fair bit from the GPU in detail.
This style of integrated AGP was only popular for a few years, so it seems to be hard to find a replacement. Wikipedia says a PCI replacement is dodgy, and besides I don't think I have the right slot: I have 2 white slots and a longer blue one, not a short red or green one.
Maybe I just need more RAM (currently 4GB).
Suggestions?
