Well will my computer bottleneck this card? Im thinking about getting a gtx 280 or a 295..i have a q6600 and a Intel mini-atx motherboard with 4 gigs of ram...
I really don't think it will be much, if any of a bottleneck. The Q6600 is a great performing chip. Many of the reviews I've seen use a Core 2 Quad in their tests.
Wow, your right, that did make a HUGE difference. Just that .4ghz mark... you know? maybe not huge, but noticeable. Hmm. So im thinking about buying a new motherboard then also. Any recomendations? Current compy is in my sig, all parts would need to fit that mobo.
or...
id most likely want to do this since i have one laying around..and stock it got better fps either way..
I happen to have this laying around
that mobo doesnt support my ram though does it? because i have ddr2-1200 and it supports ddr 1333 OC? or is that just saying it supports up to 1333 overclocked ram?
and god those cases are small..i hate midatx..i was thinkin somethin more manly like this
okay and now to the nit picky..for my system...gtx 275 or 280..i mean there is a 140gb bandwith vs 170...and some nitpicky stuff but which is going to be better?
