So a little about my system to start off
Intel i3 2125 3.30 ghz HD3000
8 GB ram
Windows 7 - 64 bit
A friend has gave me a CGAX-6452LI which appears to be a Radeon 5450 which is a ddr3 1gb version I believe.
My question, which is better. My onboard HD3000 or this 5450?
Searched around on google but they seem to compare the HD 5450 against an I5 processor with HD3000 and then it seems to be mixed reviews
My friend reckons this 5450 will beat my HD3000 but I don't want to install and waste my time if it is on the same level as the Hd3000.
Thoughts and input will be much appreciated, and sorry if I have missed some information you need, this is the first time I have looked at GPU's
