Well i'm looking towards a new graphics card cause mine is crap (intel integrated 950)

So i'll like to ask:

Does every motherboard have a slot for a graphics card? My computer is Compaq Presario V300

What do you think is the card I should get (I wanna get Nvidia): Please get me the average price range of the card you're suggesting :D

I just need it for some light gaming new runescape graphics, Sims 2, webcam (5 megapixels), etc.

Thanks.

Sorry for double post, can't edit

Mistake: My computer is V3000 not V300, typo error there, and it is the earliest model, with Intel Pentium Dual Core processor

And I've did a little research and was wondering if my laptop should have a graphics card slot even if it came with integrated graphics (bought it last year jan)

90% certain you won't be able to upgrade your laptop graphics.

Get CPU-Z, goto the Mainboard tab and tell us if it is AGP or PCI-Express. Also, is your case a full sized ATX? or Low Profile?

Laptops usually can't hold good Graphic Cards, it's advisable if you want good graphics, get a PC :D

Yeah, googled it and saw many people saying they can't upgrade too. About the AGP or PCI, I don't see it in the Mainboard tab? What is it?
