I currently have a G210 g-card and I have a m2n68-la Mother Board with a 300w power supply and was wondering what cards can it hold.
i am going to be buying a 700W Power Supply Unit so i can buy a more powerful graphics card.|||With a 700W power supply and that motherboard, you can put any modern PCI-Express video card THAT WILL FIT into your computer. Slim towers restrict you to low profile cards, and some of the most powerful video cards are so long they may not fit into your case.
Other than that, your choice is only limited by what you can afford. If you're not a hardcore gamer, the GeForce 9800 GT series or the Radeon HD 4850 series are quite nicely priced around $100 and can run pretty much any game (the most demanding might need lower video settings, though)|||Your motherboard supports graphics cards which are built to fit in a PCI Express x16 slot.|||The motherboard you have can support One PCI Express x16 graphics card. 700w power supply will be needed if you buy a high end graphics card. Even a low end card might run with the 300w power supply.

Gigabyte nvidia gforce g210 n gigabyte 8500gt turbo force..which one is better?
I would say the GeForce 8500 GT. also in the sources I'm gonna put a link comparing mid-range graphics cards.
Required power supply for BFG G210 PCI-E NVIDIA graphics card.?
Got a new HP Pavilian p62065uk!|||350watts. It will run ok on the standard psu.
Is a Geforce G210 Rubbish?
I just purchased an average computer last year and I don't want to buy the top end computer parts, just something cheap and good but I want to play the game "The witcher 2" on minimum graphics without 5 FPS. also when I checked if my computer meets the requirements, the site said I might need more than 2.8 GHz. Any tips please?
Minimum: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
I Have: AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 630 Processor -pass
Minimum: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
I Have: 2.8 GHz (The site gave me the "!" sign here)
Minimum: 1 GB Windows XP / 2 GB Windows Vista and Windows 7
I Have: 4.0 GB -pass
Minimum: Windows XP SP2 / Windows Vista SP2 / Windows 7 (32/64-bit)
I Have: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit -pass
Minimum: 512 MB RAM, supporting Pixel Shader 3.0 (NVIDIA GeForce 8800 or ATI Radeon HD 3850)
I Have: GeForce G210 -pass
Minimum: 8 GB for game and 8 GB bonus content
I Have: 769.3 GB -pass|||is it rubbish? no not really; though for gaming purposes it is probably best described as average.
The game site is probably not reporting your hardware correctly, possibly seeing two cores (hence the two lists for the processor) and ignoring the others as the game is not going to use them. Like most multi core processors if it is not needed the CPU throttles back on the other cores to save power, and this is maybe why the site gave you the caution "!" sign because the second core was not really working hard.
As to cards to buy, depends how much money you want to throw at it but the best gaming card at the moment for the money versus performance is the NVidia GTX560Ti though it is not cheap and may need you to change your PSU if it is not powerful enough.
I would suggest one of the GTX450 or 460 is perhaps the more budget concious choice, good enough for most games and wont break the bank.|||The G2(X) series of cards are nvida's prior generation, bottom of the line.

...to get some nice charts on where your card is in relation to other cards on the market.
Your CPU speed can be lower than the required as long as you have enough RAM and your video card can pick up the slack.
Look into the G460 series, they are cheap and have over double the power of your current card.|||Yes, the GeForce 210 is useless- It's just a low-cost card for everyday work.
The GeForce 210 is fine for web browsing, e-mail, word processing and watching movie clips, but it's much too slow for gaming. It's performance is approximately equal to the Radeon HD 4350.

As you can see, it's nowhere near the minimum cards- Radeon HD 3850 or GeForce 9800GT (which is just the renamed 8800GT)

Your processor is fine, better than the CPUs specified. Why it gave you the exclamation point I'm not sure- but no worries on that count.
You DO need a graphics card upgrade. At least a Radeon HD 5670 to meet the minimum requirements. The 6670 is even better, but it's only 10% faster so that might not be worth an extra $25 to you...

Both of those cards will run on a stock 300 watt power supply (the official recommendation of 400 watts is overinflated). So open your computer case and read the label- if yours is at least 300 watts, you'll be fine with either of those cards.
To install any cards better than those, your computer needs at least a 400-450 watt power supply. Anyway, the 5670 can play on minimum, so that's the most cost-effective choice.

NVIDIA GeForce G210 512MB MXM graphics card?
Hello Everyone,
I have an HP Touchsmart computer and I am looking to upgrade from the stupid Intel HD graphics card. I contacted HP and they said that the NVIDIA GeForce G210 512MB MXM graphics card would fit into my expansion slot.
I was wondering if anyone knew if they was a goo graphics card.
Thanks.|||Sub par. Low. According to a review on Amazon.com for that card (which that NVidia website directs you to for one of the only two sellers) someone said it was good for "light" gaming. So... I wouldn't expect too much out of it graphics wise. Maybe play some games on low-settings? But again, don't expect too much out of it!

Will a silent g210 graphics card work in a compaq presario sr1915an?
coz when i turn the comp on with monitor plugged into the g cards port it says NO SIGANL DETECTED! everythings connected properly. any ideas how to fix??|||Graphics cards are very sensitive to static electricity. If you didn't follow the proper procedure during installation it is possible that you damaged the card even before you started your computer.
Also try to remove the card, power up your computer with video connected via the on-board graphics and enter the BIOS settings. Verify and change the settings (if any) so that PCI is the first option for graphics. Usually for computers with integrated graphics (on-board) you have to first disable those before you install a graphics card.|||Did you plug the monitor cable from the onboard video into the new graphics card? is it a HDMI or DVI ? Change the input source on the monitor to HDMI if that's the case.
It should work if you have a pci-e slot.
