sorry to say but the 2400xt is not a powerhouse of a graphic chip

As Macer1 said your GPU is not the best out there:p

Ouch but sound right, my 8400GS on my Dell M1330 laptop is about the same and just breaks 2023 if I OC it a little. You could OC yours a little and probably break 2000 also but not much higher. But you know thats not as bad in real world as you would think. I have been playing the orange box HL2 series on it and that runs like a scalded cat at full res. It can also run Crysis but all settings at low, so it doesn't look that good.

amd makes a good cpu. and i would put money on the fact that you can Overclock that 2400xt even more....... factory Overclocks are a joke.

download this if you want to overclock your card.

My 6000+ (stock and $111 at Fry's) and 8800GTS 512 (small OC) gets 12K.

Well phenoms rather stink, but what is killing you is your graphics card or chip or whatever is in there...if you upgrade that, you'll do a lot better.

you do realize that 2400 craphics card was like the entry level card of the previous generation.... thats your biggest problem... the cpu isn't as good as it could be but that gpu is just poor, bet it was cheap though :twisted:

Like everyone is saying, the CPU won't hold you back near as much as a 2400 XT will.
