Subject: Games using 3D card

Question
I have a computer using P4M800PRO-M motherboard with integrated Unichrome Pro 3D/2D graphics and video controller.
I bought some computer DVD game that require 3D graphics card in order to play the game. Can my computer play all the DVD games as the seller of the DVD told me that certain game needs special graphics cards. I have one AGP 8X/4X slot provided in the motherboard which the board is not installed.
Please advise,
Thanks,
alvin.

Answer
You can add a second video card to your system, check the motherboard manufacture about adding a second card and a second monitor. Sometimes you have to disable the onboard video when you add another video card to the system.

The games will give the minimum requirements and recommendations for the video card that will give the best results.
