I'm not sure what you are asking. pc4life said: by the way what OS is best for gaming? hat do you prefer? Click to expand... I would suggest either XP or Windows 7. The real advantage with W7 is running the newer DirectX 10 and DX 11 capable games with the proper video cards.

Atomic Rooster Omnipotent One Messages 11,161 Location USA Jun 9, 2010 #8 I couldn't tell ya how much memory is on the video card. They average 512mb. It depends on the card. With that setup, XP is all you need.
