suggestion for my friend's comp.
So my friend has a computer. He has 5 Gigs (WTF? And I have 3...) or RAM. It's a Dell. So with his other specs (pentium 4 @ 3 gHz or something), I figured that his computer would run games quite nicely. Then his graphics card. Ooooh boy. He has an integrated graphics card. Tried playing HL2 at the lowest setting on everything. Got about 15 fps (I'm pretty surprised at this).
Err, should I recommend him a good graphics card? Or should I just keep quiet? If I should, which graphics card? I'm pretty sure he has a 16x PCI-e slot.

And YES, suggest a video card, I'd go for the nVidia 8800GTX since I'm getting that one myself, I have an ATI Sapphire 2800pro but it sucks. (I can't put anti-aliasing on or I get massive FPS drops) |

The biggest problem he haves starts with "D" and ends with "ells are shit".
