How to Upgrade My Nvidia Geforce 6150 Card
Upgrading a video card doesn't necessarily mean spending money to purchase and replace the video card you currently have. Most graphic card makers offer frequent software updates to the drivers for their cards that can improve their performance. Nvidia does this from its driver download website (see References). The upgrades are completely free.
