Looking to upgrade from my current system that yeilds me only about 20 fps on HL2
Any comments, suggestions, or ways to optimizer performance/save money would be apprecaited.
Abit KN8 sli nForce 4
AMD athlon 64 4000+ San Diego
XFX GeForce 7900 GTX (is this overkill??)
Corsair XMS 2 GB PC 3200 DDR
160 GB 7200 RPM 3.0 Gb/s SATA
560W Silverstone ATX12V/EPS12V
Lian Li PC-60B Mid Tower Case
I would, of course, OC most things possible
Is extra cooling necessary?
I have old copies of XP pro and office and that setup looks like around $1500 total.
Can I expect decent to good performance in the most current titles?
