Oh thanks.
I have one issue, i dunno much about comps but, I have a PCI express 1 slot on my motherboard where i can put a PCI express graphics card... My question is can i buy a PCI express 2.0 graphics card and still be able to put it in the 1.0 slot? or do i need a 2.0 slot?
PS: how about this card? http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...0&Sku=B52-9826

the card is ok however i would recommend buying from newegg.com
you can put the card in the PCI.e 1.0 slot, as long as this "1.0" number doesn't mean bus speed, probably it doesn't mean that
i would recommend changing the motherboard as well, if the mobo is using old 1.0 PCI'e expansion slots than it's probably weak as hell

Yeah i meant putting a PCI Express 2.0 graphics card into a PCI Express 1.0 slot.
I'm using a motherboard called ASUS M2A-VM, it has Expansion slots : PCI Express x16 x 1 • PCI Express x1 x 1 • PCI x 2

Would that run SC2 at max settings ?
Get a i5 750 instead. It's cheaper and faster.
