So I'm buying a new computer tomorrow. It has 8 gb of ram and it has 500gb of storage. I know that most games requires you to have a graphic card but do I still need one if they are online games? Also, if I have 2 hard drives and each one has an operating system on them what happens?
Most likely yes, in the PC Gaming world your video card is like the heartbeat so to speak.
Yes Laz, you will need a gaming card... Some games "may" run without one but your computer speed. The image, gameplay and other things will be greatly effected. What games are you looking to play and what processor will the computer have within it?

Whats your price range
It has 8 gb of ram and it has 500gb of storage. if your paying over $800 for that your being ripped off
$200 for the pc. I was wondering if I could play online games that are free, nothing to fancy or anything like that

The processor that I have is an AMD A4-5000 APU with Radeon HD Graphocs 1.56Ghz. Or better yet the computer model is ASRock QC5000-ITX. It's a very tiny computer, its like 9x8x2.5in. I have windows 7 on it with 8GB of ram. The games that I wanted to play are just low quality free ones. Nothing too fancy or too high deamanding is the video department.
the processor is very poor, i would assume the motherboard is also of low quality.Quote:

while the games you want to play are of low quality, so is your pc. It will probably still struggle
