best laptop for video editing and gaming 2013 image
Wyllie Yip
Since I have learned the BASIC things in choosing a right processor from my friend that when you buy a processor you should always base the number of cores, theads, cache and the frequency speed.
Question:
Now, what I want to learn is that I wanna know what are the tips in buying Video Card, what are the things should I base before buying Video Card? Because I heard from other people that when I buy a Video Card the Video Memory must be bigger to have a GREAT VIDEO CARD. Now, I have found out this Leaflets from the computer store there is different Video Cards here like GT and GTX and I saw that GTX are more expensive? Why is that? Also, with this let me state an example:
- GF 210 1GB 64BIT DDR3 - 1,200 pesos
- GF 210 1GB 128BIT DDR3- 1,670 pesos.....
... I saw that there is a difference between the two, the BIT, why does 128BIT is more expensive that 64BIT since their VIDEO Memory is just the same? What's the USE of that BIT? Is that one of the tip in buying Video Card?
Another example:
- GT 630 4GB 128BIT DDR3 - 2,775 pesos
- GTX 650 1GB, 128BIT DDR5 - 4,885 pesos...
In this example....I am so doubtful because why is it that GTX 650 1GB is more expensive that GT 630 since GT 630 has more VIDEO MEMORY because it's 4GB than GTX 650 only 1GB? And I see the difference that GTX650 is DDR5, is that the reason because of "DDR5" GTX650 is more expensive than GT 630?
Thank you so much!....your explanation would help...
so that in the near future, when I buy video card...
I already know what is the right Video Card to buy...
Answer
GT (and even GTS) is the low and regular card class, GTX is the extreme card class.
For gaming and HD video editing, a GTX card is a MUST.
For anything else, any GT or GTS card will do fine.
In all modern nVidia cards, the first digit is the series (generation). The latest is the 600 series for desktop cards, they already released a GT730M for laptops.
The next generation of 700 series will be released this year, people say in the 3rd or 4th quarter of 2013....
The second digit is the class, and the 3rd digit is generally zero (0), except for some OEM models and OEM for laptops.
A GTX680 will be better than a GTX670 and so on...
Example of OEM cards: GT635M for some Dell and HP laptops, or GTX555 for Dell Alienware X51 small form factor gaming desktop PC.

The 1GB, 2GB, etc is the amount of GDDR graphics memory on the card.
The generation does play an important role, like GDDR5 is much faster (better) than GDDR3 or DDR3.
The amount of GDDR memory (1GB, 2GB, etc) does not play an important role in the card performance, except when using multiple monitors.
For gaming on a single monitor, 1GB GDDR5 is more than enough, as almost all games will only use well under 1GB.
In your example, the 1GB GTX650 GDDR5 will be a much better card than the 4GB GT630 DDR3.
The 64bit or 128bit or 256bit, etc is the memory interface bandwidth of the card, and is very important in determining the card performance. The higher the bandwidth, the faster the access to the card memory would be.
Gaming cards have 128bit or higher. For best performance in gaming, a 192bit or higher bandwidth is required.
For gaming and video editing, get at least a GTX650 Ti (better than the non-Ti version), or best a GTX660 Ti.

What are some good free programs, games, and apps for windows 8?
Dan
I recently got a new laptop with windows 8 on it and was wondering if there are any good starter programs that maybe recommended.
As for apps I am not talking about the apps in the app store.
Answer
Are you new to windows?
Firefox or google chrome for a browser instead of internet explorer--nobody uses IE, ever. It just sucks and everybody hates it. (Opera or safari would be my 2nd choice)
Office 2013 for word processing, spreadsheets, and powerpoint presentations. (This isn't free, but a lot better than the supposed "free version" open office. If you don't want to pay for this, try downloading it.)
K-Lite Codec Pack for playing any video file.

iTunes for music.
Skype. If you video chat a lot.
Paint (already included) to edit pictures.
