You may be right on the down/upgrade of graphic cards by physically swapping them out and since mine is a HP touchsmart 520-1149d model I have to get a licensed technician to do that in the future when I'm switching or upgrading to a great NVIDIA graphics card but for both AMD Radeon HD 7450A and AMD Radeon HD 6450 are you saying they are of the same card but with different versions and the earlier release version of 6450 is actually an upgrade from 7450A? That dosen't matter either way regardless it's 7450A and 6450 they both deliver poor performance for gaming or other applications as stated in pc-specs website.
My decision to switch is because I understand my current video card can only barely handle Sims 4 and I know problems I have listed will occur frequently.
And how do you explained my DriverTuner (Paid Version) does not detect any new drivers require for upgrade and all drivers are up to date or DriverTuner's not reliable on updates of drivers on-time?
Final question: Will there be a increase in the current recommended system requirements for future Sims 4 expansion packs and will my system specs from dxdiag handle new release NVIDIA graphic cards?
Hi. It says in your report you have the AMD Radeon HD 7450A card, so you should go to the AMD website and download the latest drivers for that card model and no other. I wouldn't trust that paid for program you got as it's clearly not doing it's job properly.
AMD Radeon HD 7450A and AMD Radeon HD 6450 are not the same card. 7450A and 6450 refer to the physical model of the card itself, not the drivers.
There shouldn't be an increase in the current recommended system requirements for future Sims 4 expansion packs, although they do usually require tiny bit more RAM, but your system should handle them fine. And from what I can tell, your computer should handle newer Nvidia cards, but your computer shop technician can let you know for definite 🙂
