Graphic Card Upgrades - What To Look Out For
When most people consider doing an upgrade to their existing PC buying a new graphics cards often seems the way to go but there are some considerations you need to take into account.
How Old Is Your Games Collection
One of the first things that you’ll need to do is a take a close look at what you use your computer for and at the collection of games that you’ve got. Find out whether the majority are in 2-D or in 3-D
If the majority are older titles then you simply will not need a high end high memory card and will be better suited with a budget card especially in an older system. Surprisingly one consideration you need to take into account is your current processor speed. Take care here before you buy anything. Getting the latest upgrade when you’ve got an older chip in your computer will be a waste since the two won’t be compatible.
Does Your Motherboard Support The Card Type?
Bear in mind that different types of cards have different slot types so you need to ensure that the card you buy is correct for your mainboard.
Depending on your mainboard there will be a choice of suitable card types; Pci slot, AGP slot and Pci express slot
Do You Have Enough Computer Memory?
In a lot of cases upgrading your computer graphics will mean a memory upgrade too!
Graphics cards will be available with different gpu’s and varying amounts of memory, and if your computer system only has a small amount of memory then you will run into a big snag as there will be insufficient memory to allocate to your system hardware and your computer may become vey unstable and crash or your computer will end up slower than before.
Is Your Power Supply Good Enough?
Newer cards drink a lot more power than their older counterparts so you need to be aware of this as well, the older the power supply the smaller it may be, and it may only be around 300w plus or minus, so depending on if you have already added additional hardware to your system, this may cause a power drain which can make your computer very unstable indeed. Also don’t forget thatmany of the new breed of graphics cards may need an additional direct power connection so you need to check to see if you have a spare connector (that will reach the card) available.
Is My Case Big Enough?
Sometimes a cases internal layout can cause space problems when fitting a new graphics card or the layout out of the main board may simply not be conducive for larger cards and a newer card will simply not fit!
Typically newer cards are much longer and much deeper than older less powerful cards. With newer cards working a lot harder they tend to generate a lot more heat so onboard cooling has been increase. This tends to lead to a thicker card as well so you may need to move other Pci cards to accommodate a larger graphics card.
A graphics card upgrade is worthwhile but does need some planning, but if you mainboard is based on the older AGP graphics standard you will more than likely be better off buying new if graphics performance is what you require.

Need a carrier for a PCI card w/ USB interface to Laptop?
Can't seem to find one, but I'm sure there are small single-board PCI equipped boxes out there that, via USB, allow you to attach a PCI card into a laptop via USB. Would expect requiring a "wall wart" (external power module) to power it. Anyone?
They are quite expensive:

Acer Aspire M3 AM3970 Review (Slash Gear)
The mid-range desktop is a dying breed. With most consumers opting for laptops
anyway, the primary reasons for choosing a desktop at all are to get below the
$500 mark, get maximum performance for gaming or other media applications, or
simply to have a semi-permanent installation with a larger screen than you an
get while mobile. [...]
