video card upgrade (agp)
Current PC specs: 3200+ 64 bit, 1GB PC3200, Geforce 6600GT AGP, xp
sp2. Playing Battlefield 2 is not a good experience as you can imagine (I can play at 1024x768 but at low avg frame rates), and when Unreal Tournament 3 comes out in Q3/4 I will need to upgrade anyway. I would like to play BF2 and UT3 at reasonable resolution/framerate without replacing my entire computer. Here is my plan.. Replace 6600GT with eVGA 256-A8-N506-AX Geforce 7800GS 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X. Add 1GB PC3200. Will this give me what I want? With such a slow cpu, should I look into a passive cooled 7600? I feel a 7800 may be better paired with a faster cpu (according to a few benchmarks at least); thanks for your help. |
