To play Duel Board games, I would recommend ANY gfx card, preferably at least 10 years oldÂ

To play other games.... I have no idea... I don't care for other gamesÂ

Slide on a pair of nvidia 6600GT (128)'s.

Don't cost too much anymore, and will make Doom 3 pant-wettingly scary.

Or for CW, yeah, any post BBCB gfx should do the trick.

Shouldn't this be in unrelated? It is a question, but it has nothing to do with the game as nearly all (ones that can support a gui anyway) graphics cards seem able to support Java.

hey dumbfuck the question forum is for ANYTHING AT ALL

No, he's right, it should be in unrelated.

Anything at all means 'even the most newbie of CW-related questions', rather than 'what's this itch on my bell-end'.

Imho.

Get a pair of 6800 GT's or wait for ATI's SLI option.

SLi is pretty much just a marketing ploy

How so? It's not necessary, but it does improve performance.
