would this graphic card work with 2nd life

ATI radeon 3100

and if so how well will it work?

maybe... i would not bother buying it tho

dident know it was a fire GL


maybe theres someone who plays second life and uses it that will come on and say it works

And someone might just do that...........but that does not mean it will work on your computer without some workarounds. Or it may not work to your satisfaction. Osgeld gave you an honest answer.........so now you want someone to tell you it will work satisfactorily. It may..........it may not.

That's about as honest as one can get.

i have a limited ammount of cash and want to get a toshibaall the toshiba cpus in my range have the intell 3100 or ATI radeon X3100

it will cost a assload more for 1 with a ATI radeon HD 3450

I believe those both are onboard graphics chipsets. Nortorious for having big problems running SL. It's entirely possible that someone has been able to make theirs work.......but that does not mean it will work for you.

Get it at your own risk...........the answer's the same. It may work, it may not.

I have an onboard ATI 3100 in my laptop and SL works just fine on it. I have a Toshiba with 4 GB ram and a 320 GB hard drive. Hope that helps.

thats what i needed to know thanks

i would not bother buying toshiba either, if the shoe does not fit, then thats not the computer for you now is it?

there are plenty of companies out there willing to give you a decent card in your laptop for the same price, the fire gl 3100 is basicly a bottom of the barrel ati card from like 7 years ago, its, quite honestly, pathetic

one can have a pretty pimped out dual core intel with 4gb of ram and a nice geforce for less, and with a name brand

ive had my share of Toshiba laptops in my days... they are the apple of the PC world

they are for the business person wanting to seem hip

or the total hacker, who can take their laptop and quadruple its potential with some bell wire and a iron

noone in between, they are overpriced, run hot, and always underpowered

then what type should i get with out putting out a few grand for a laptop that can play second life

what gpx card should i be looking for at least for a Gforce

i know that just about any ATI HD would work

what about a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M

or a NVIDIA GeForce 8200M

whats your price range

700$ max before tax but i would like to know about the 2 cards

both those geforces are on the low end of things, if i had to choose, i would use the 8200m

heres a couple of alternatives

for 50$ more

sporting a geforce go 7300, altho it only has 1gb of ram and you will need to upgrade that asap

or for 100$ more

which has a geforce 8600m GT, which would be killer

and has 2 gb of ram, if you can save your money a while longer, i would take that battalion, max out its ram, and get the 800mhz / 2.4 ghz chip, which puts you around a grand (1,074 to be exact)

HP will gladly sell you one with a 2ghz cpu, 4gigs of ram and a radieon HD for 800 also

I would just wait abit longer and spend your money on something worth while, so your not spending another 700$ next year

my wife did that a few years ago before we started dating, ask her how much she loves her outdated and slow desktop, and her broken e-crap i mean machines she pissed 400$ tween the 2
