1. Hey i have the graphics card NVIDIA GeForce7300...can anyone who has this graphics card or any type of NVDIA Card give me the settings for the best quality and best looking picture...

2. Also the package i got with my pc gave me an NVIDIA nForce 500 SLI Chipset and it's designed for AMD Socket AM2 Athlon 64/X2/SemPron Processors....it's an additional attachment and I think it might be used to improve rendering...so edges around characters and objects look smoother...but i have no idea how to attach it or if what i just said is even true

There aren't really any "best" settings. It's really a matter of taste. With a 7300 I'd me more worried about turning down settings to get decent framerates.

Your SLI chipset allows you to use 2 SLI video cards at the same time. In order to use it you would have to buy 2 SLI-capable video cards (not a cheap prospect). IMO, SLI is a waste of money. Basically, you would probably have to spend about $300 - $500 on video cards in order to make it worth it. Otherwise it's better to just stick with one video card that has the price and performance you want.

Yeah, I'm sorry, but the 7300 is basically like one of the GeForce FXs but with shader model 3.0.

I would reccomend you get something like a GeForce 7600 or 7800. At the very least, a GeForce 6800.

Although GW has system requirements, statistics from one of those "Low FPS" threads show GW seems to like ATI cards more when it comes to framerate.

well im not going to buy another graphics card...waste of money if i really wanted a better picture yeh i could get another graphics card but the picture isn't worth it for the increase in quality....and the framerate doesn't seem to be a problem for me at all...i had problems on my old pc with framerate where the picture would get a lil choppy when doing certain things..and yeh i read up about the video link thingy...it's pointless
