I plan to use this video card to play a video game called heroes of the storm, would this be good video card to use to help my computer play lag free?

Honestly, I can say that it isn't spectacular for gaming. I tried to play the new Far Cry on it and it was lagging so bad that I couldn't play it. It can play games like Skyrim and Fallout. But then again those games aren't that new.

If you are buying it for games, you are gonna want a GTX, this is a GT series.

For me, It's a very good card. I don't do any gaming but use it for video and it does a great job.

If your processor is slow and your ram is small, like say one gig, then this graphics card may not make a difference. Check your hardware performance index. If graphics and video are the lowest scores, then yes absolutely this card will help. Sometimes a graphics and/or ram update can make a PC seem like an entirely new system. Don't go Walmart. Shopping around and doing research can save hundreds of dollars.

It should, as it is a self-contained plug-n-play unit. I have not used it in that scenario, but it has worked perfectly for me as a third video card.

I'm sorry but there is way too little information available to answer this question. Check the specs on the card and the paticular game you are playing, or perhaps ask a more specific question to someone who may know.

To be honest, I have no idea. I am only using one monitor. Bought the card to boost my fps rate in the game I play, Everquest 2. Helped my fps quite a bit. Went from 5 to 9 frames a second to 21 to 55. A very nice improvement. Sorry could not help.

it will work with your components no doubt, and its a relatively small card compared to most so there shouldnt be any worries about it fitting in your case, unless you have really limited amount of room. i got one for my little brothers computer and he was able to play the titanfall beta 50-60fps on high settings..update: as the other guy said, make sure your power supply has enough wattage, and make sure to buy a quality power supply if needed..

I haven't tested it with those games, but I'd imagine you'd be lucky to get 30 fps on low settings with this card. It's not the greatest thing in the world.

I've played League of Legends on it, doesn't lag. I haven't downloaded steam on it yet...But im pretty sure it can handle it..might lag a little I fyou want a gaming laptop, get a lenovo, msi or asus.

System memory has no relation to the video card. You need a PCI Express 2.0 slot for this card to work. It has built in memory. However if you are looking to play games with this, you will be dissapointed, its a very basic video card with on board x264 HD decoding. I put one in my parents computer since they only use the internet and video.

that is one of the games that this card is made for, you better look at the ram, make sure your getting the 4 gig ram card

I am using that video card and it most definitely works. I would recommend a program called ParkControl to give a little boost to the processor. I get 30 frames and up playing online games like DayZ. I hope this helps. I did have to remove the wifi card to make room but as I am using it as a gaming computer I use an ethernet cable to reduce signal lag.

It will be able to run the game 5 times with no problem, you are looking at one of the best video cards out there. Power consumtion is okay, it is a big card

It should work just fine. This card is not too demanding on power needs and your PC has the correct slot connection, etc. it's easy to install. This card doesn't get hot either as long as its not crowded and all of your system fans are flowing air.

This is an all round good card for the money. You can play skyrim with minimal lag, but battlefield 4 deserves a better card like a 256 bit. One milisecond of lag makes all the difference in battlefield. This is for the occasional, not so hardcore gamer.

Get a better card with that system. It would work but it's will be the limiting factor in your PC.

This card should work fine for you and give you good performance. If there its no disk, I do recommend getting the most up to date driver direct from Nvidia. While your power supply does meet the requirements, I would recommend a future upgrade to at least 600w.
