I bought a computer for just under 100 bucks off Amazon a few days ago, to run a 3D printer off of, but I’m trying to get it’s graphics card up to spec to handle the technical specifications of Total War, Rome 2.
This is Rome 2 specifications:
Processor:2 GHz Intel Dual Core processor / 2.6 GHz Intel Single Core processor. Memory: 2GB RAM. Graphics:512 MB DirectX 9.0c compatible card (shader model 3, vertex texture fetch support). DirectX®:9.0c.
This is what the computer supposedly is, they are all over the place in terms of listing the cpu, listing it different in three places, but I’m okay so long as it makes minimum. I’m mostly worried about the graphics card:
(I know it says Pentium D, people who got it says ADM Processor two years back, that isn’t too important, I can afford a i3 upgrade if need be, think he periodically updates this page, I did contact him, says it’s a Pentium Duo Core).
So I’m on the wall with the graphics card. It doesn’t support the verticle processes jigger majigger stuff, but the description for the x1000 series says it does get around doing this via other calculations. I’m guessing no, but I’ll try either way:

Now I know this sucks as a computer, etc etc… All I need from it is to pull off operating a few cutting machines and printers, do some translation work, and ideally, pull off playing this game. Once my cash flow increases, I can just buy a real computer, but that can be several months. I wanna play now.
What is the cheapest cost effective route to go in terms of a decent graphics card ($70 or less) that is compatible with this computer? I’ll be buying off EBay or Amazon.com
Also for Shield Maiden, what does Kangaroo and Wallaby shit look like?
