Hello, This is my PC Specs: Gateway Model: DX4850-27e Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit Service Pack1 Intel Core i5 Processor 2300 1.5 TB Hard Drive 6GB ddr3 RAM Here's a link to my PC i found.. http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=DX4850-27E-FB-R I just wanna know what Graphics Card is Compatible for my PC and Good for this game on High or Ultra Settings. I can play right now, I've been playing this a week before launch. I had to mess around with the graphics settings on swtor and made it work out. I think this video card works on my PC but im not too sure about it.. H775F1GD Radeon HD 7750 1GB (128bit) GDDR5 Displayport HDMI DVI (HDCP) PCI Express X16 3.0 Graphics Card. Thank you.

The card you picked, is a PCI Express 3.0/X16, this will work with you PCI Express x16 because they are all backward compatible. The issue is it will only run at the lowest speed with is the Base X16. So its alot of money to spend on a card that wont work at its full rate. Going with a 2.0 will give you the same effect but they are cheaper and a bit more common as th PCI 3.0 is newer. Simple answer is yes and No. it will work but not at its besst it will run slower then intended. But all PCI Express X16 are compatible with each other (i.e - X16,1.0, 2.0, 2.1, 3.0)

I might try to buy it this weekend, but I wanna be sure i got the right one that will work so i wont get ripped off. Edit: So you're saying I should go with the 2.0? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+A...0X16&cp=1&lp=8

I mean you can go from anything like an x16 to a 3.0 connection but it will allwasy run at the lowest speed (x16) 2.0 and 2.1 are the most common now, but that changing AMD has the 7000 series out so its up to you. you can splurge and have a 3.0 so if you upgrade the mother board you will have a great card to go with my only suggestion is to go with a higher bit, basicly the bridge on how much info is going back and forth, i think 256 bit is the next up its big enough that it should compinsate for the loss of speed. but its a higher price tage even if its a 1g. This is ok for the price is Ok, its not going to blow doors down but its enough to run swtor on hig, granted if you had a better pci port but it should work well enough for you. Id suggest in the future like in the next year upgrading the motherboard.

I'm playing the game on low settings, so this card gives me High settings that a BIG plus. Later ill have to upgrade my video card.. way way way later lol. SO i guess my PC has 500 Watts to run this video card cause you suggested it? but thanks for the info.

YEah make sure it has the power, i forgot sorry, the bridge should change the amount of power it uses i was suggesting that you need a bridge like the one it has 256 bit.

Just make sure your power supply has enough juice, bridge is the amount of info that allows to go back and forth. 256 bit is an ok bridge. look for one with that
