how can i measure?

 

[unknownofprob]

tape measure would do, go inside the case and physically measure dimensions.

 

[manjula baghel]

ok i will do that currently i have this card http://www.flipkart.com/sapphire-amd-ati-radeon-hd-5450-1-gb-ddr3-graphics-card/p/itmd4f6rxn5cj4gf

i have another idea i have an petrol pump and there is acer veriton its specs is pentium e6600 dual core 3.06gh , 2gb ram,500gb hard disk .intel intergrated graphics. but its only problem is its processor so what should i do exchange it with my current pc or search for low profile cards.

 

[unknownofprob]

what did you want to exchange?

 

[manjula baghel]

cpu

 

[unknownofprob]

as long as it is the same socket and is supported by the motherboard, go for it.

 

[manjula baghel]

can i exchange the processer of this cpu's

 

[unknownofprob]

if you know both motherboard of the new rig and old, check the sockets and then on your current motherboard, check if that CPU is compatible.

 

[manjula baghel]

can you suggest me a graphic card for acer veriton

 

[manjula baghel]

my inspiron 660s have socket LGA 1155 and acer veriton has socket LGA 755

 

[unknownofprob]

that won't work, two different sockets are two different CPU architectures. Unless you swap both the motherboard and CPU over, it'll work.

budget for card?

 

[manjula baghel]

50$ to 110$

 

[manjula baghel]

is pentium e6600 is good or better from i3 for gaming ?

 

[unknownofprob]

the i3 is much better, little comparison.

 

[manjula baghel]

but i cant exchange processors so what could i do

 

[unknownofprob]

you may be able to change the cases over, if one is larger.

 

[manjula baghel]

yes i will do that can you suggest me graphic card
