New Graphics Card
« on: June 03, 2012, 01:38:18 AM »
So, my video card is dying in my secondary gaming computer and I feel like replacing it since it either has no onboard or I have no idea how to activate it. My question: What is the highest video card (including SLi) that I could install that wouldn't bottle neck my CPU too badly? CPU = Intel Core Duo E8300 @ 2.83. Was thinking GTX 550/560 or one of the newer 6xxx AMDs.

No idea but I know Meeester has a website that compared all the graphics cards, it was in my favorites on my old laptop.

So did you get one, and does this mean you'll be playing BF3 with us?

I got a 6570, which isn't really an upgrade from my 8800. When I have time I might venture to download the 6GB of patches.
