Upgrading PC Crumpets!


The Queen

Recommended Posts

SLRRR, there's no need for a 280GTX or any of the 200 series cards at the moment. Sure, they're great, but there are pretty much no games an 8800GT or X1950

 

I just said that because that's one off the best you can compare that one to the 4870. But a 8800 GT can run crysis very high with high resolutions ?

 

But anyway he doesnt upgrade his graphiqs card.

 

 

Those parts look good :D

I'm annoyed that I can't run GTA IV at all without lag so I think it's time to upgrade. Honestly my processor really sucks even with games like Far Cry at times ;)

 

 

GTA IV isn't optimized its just released because off christmas. But yes your processor isn't that good.

So you won't like hearing that it'll still lag with this upgrade then? ;)

GTA IV doesn't lag on mine. And on many rigs.

 

Alright, it doesn't have full (draw distance has been reduced) (even though it's set to it), but with a 1gb GPU (fits this budget just), it should be fine. Not on Max, but that's what the developers did. Futureproof'ed it.

Hopefully the patch makes it more optomised =) (next few days) Originally set for today.
