First of all, if ur smart enough, u should already know if u have AGP slot or not on ur comp, secondly, that graphic card sux, and third u can order it online, it's faster and cheaper than the store

He might not be a SUN-LESS geek like you, who opens up the guts of his compter every day to MARVEL at what a L33T machine it is.

SECOND(ly - what the fuck is secondly??) - For games today, it runs fine and satisfies a 3D gamers need. See, not every has this sick and nasty compulsion to get ATI ALL-IN-YOU-ANUS 1000000 PRO, simply because GuRU3d.com says its the greatest and gives you 1000frames. Of course you realize the human eye cant even detect frames even close to 40.

Accept for that pesky "no returns" or "restocking fee" thing that most CHEAP online stores run to recoup the cost of providing discounted product. Had he bought online, he would be SOL right now.

Hey ED - I bet he checks the guts of his computer for an AGP slot next time. Will that make him a sun-less geek too?

Bazooka_Joe 11-04-2002 12:46 PM

How do you not check if your PC can maintain a part before you buy it??!! Do you buy tires for your car that only fit on a motorcycle?!

11-04-2002 01:16 PM

When I first got myself a REAL video card, I didn't know what AGP or PCI was.

It's not such a LEAP of logic to think someone doesn't know EVERY component of their machine. AND, I can easily see if this person assumed PCI and AGP were simply two different types of cards you could go with.

And no, checking your computer for system parts will not make him a SUN-LESS GEEK. Checking his computer obsessively, and then hopping on a forum and attempting to deride someone for not having "simple" intelligence, in an attempt to validate himself WILL make him one.

Thats where i stood im gonna trade it in and get my girl a gift

Ed - its all perspective. A year and a half ago, I could tell you the difference in agp, pci, usb, and pbj. But after making a mistake or two and doing some research, it all makes sense and now seems stupid not to know (no offense meant to those that dont). BUT, I also know that all pcs are different and you should look 'under the hood' before you go buy fuel injection for a carborated engine.
