Thread: Which DVD Writer To Buy

I recently upgraded my motherboard to an NVIDIA GeForce 7025/nforce 630a with 2GB Hynix RAM. Most of the games like FEAR, NFS: MW are running fine but some games like Resident Evil 4 and Doom 3 are running poorly, even at low graphic settings. Earlier I had a Gainward GeForce FX 5900 XT 128 MB, and these games were running fine. Is it because of the integrated graphic-card? Please help and kindly suggest a good DVD writer.

Yes, this is a result of migrating to an integrated graphics platform. The onboard GPU is nowhere near as powerful as the GeForce FX 5900XT card. I suggest investing in a new graphics card. Even a GeForce 9400GT will give you a nice boost in performance over anything you have experienced. If you want something more powerful, look for cards based on the GeForce 9600GT GPU.
