Looking around, Amazon has a pretty good deal on a Geforce 450 from EVGA. It's the lowest price I could find that doesnt require a rebate. It's also DX11 compliant and can be SLI'd to ensure longevity for future upgrades. Plus, it includes free shipping


$129.00 plus free shipping.

I would love that card, but is still expensive for me right now. I have inside now my computer a geforce 7800 card in PCIexpress. I look for something better than i have but not to expensive. Help please if you can find one.

Thanks.

Here's one card that's better than what you have now and isn't that expensive at all. In fact, my nephew is running this same card and he's able to play NBA 2K10 on it without issues; although he has to lower some settings to medium. Even then, the game still looks great and at $39.99 the price wont break your wallet either.

That card you have should be decent enough. I have a GeForce 9600 GT and don't plan on upgrading anytime soon. I played 2K10 on max settings with no problems. How much RAM do you have? That makes a difference also. I have 4 gigs.

Get a 9800gt that will run the game at max. The card is a lil more powerful than the 360 so it can basically play anything decently.

You said you have an 8800, then you said you had a 7800.

Select NBA 2K10 since it has the same system requirements as NBA 2K11. Install the software that is required, it is perfectly safe. When it's done, it will tell you how well your PC can run the game.

Here are some video cards that should run the game at max settings.

What Hoozah posted seems to be a great deal. If you spend &10 extra, you can get an HD 5770 for $139 which is slightly better - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product
