Hello,
I'm looking to get a reasonable video card for the occasional game, using a 7600GT right now and just play a bit of CSS gungame, nothing heavy. I'd like to try some newer/better games. even in CSS if I max everything out, it does lag. so I know i need some upgrades.
here are the current specs:
Antec Earthwatts 650w
MSI G31M3V2-L
E5200
4GB DDR2-800
WD TB Black 32/7200
7600GT 256m
samsung 23.5" , 2048x1152 (something like that)
I've been looking at some SSD and WD Black with 64 cache, but having thought about it more, I think it would be better to get a decent video card and another WD Black. That way I can keep it around ~$200.
what do you think? I was looking at some more expensive video cards, but I'm not sure it's worthwhile with my current system.
