RE: computer graphic card memory

cents is don&#8217;t purchase a computer with an integrated graphics card, especially
with 4mb ram.  That&#8217;s like buying a
car with a governor that keeps it below 45mph.<span style="mso-spacerun:
yes">  The Cache is different from the Ram memory.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  It resides near the processor and
offloads tasks to free up the processor and allows faster throughput.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  256K is what comes with a Celeron chip
and the Pentium usually has 512K.  Don&#8217;t
torture yourself with that computer. 
Just my opinion.  Dave D.

<font size=3 color=black
face=Arial>I am
looking at new computer  and also thinking of buying a good charting 
program. 

Dell told me  this new computer I am thinking of purchasing has a graphic 
card that is 'integrated', meaning unremovable, and also 4mb ram only.
  He 
suggested I check first to see if it may not be strong enough for my intended 
charting software program. 

He also mentioned the cache is 256mb , and I read a good charting program 
needs to work on 512mb cache.    I am thinking of putting 256x2
mb ram onto 
this new computer.       Is Cache & Ram 2
different kinds of memories?  I 
thought I know I lot, but now I really think I know nothing...:-( 

TYIA for any guidances.... 

Have a nice weekend, all of you :-)<span
