It's a very helpful/useful utility that compares your computer specs to the system requirements for hundreds of pc games (and anyone who buys/plays pc games knows, finding the requirement specs online can be like pulling teeth).

What do you mean? It shows graphic card requirements as well (and scans your own card as well).

no, i mean i need a new graphics card and when I looked at the side of the box the other day it had a ton of stuff listed about my computer that I didn't even know mattered. it'd be cool if i typed in my computer somewhere and they told me which cards were good for my computer.

Hmm, I think I understand what you're saying. It matters now because there are three types of graphic cards in the market today, the cards that only support AGP 4X, AGP 8X, and PCI Express slots. If you buy a GeForce 8800GT you probably can't put that in your Athlon XP computer that goes along with a motherboard that only have a AGP 4x/8x slot, because GeForce 8800GT is a PCI Express card. Then there's the gaming industry's demand for killer graphics that you can only get from newer cards that support Pixel Shader 2.0 and all types of shit.

But the thing is, there are so many graphic cards variety out there it's almost impossible to list and categorize them all.
