Hi all!
Was just wondering if I could get some feedback on where to draw the line on a card for a Q9550. Do not want to spend extra money on a card that will bottleneck the CPU.
I was thinking 5850 or 5870. The latter if I got the cash. Im not sure If I should wait to see what Fermi brings us. I'm expecting bloated prices and cards that run too hot.
Right Now I have a 9800 GT akimbo OC'd to 675/2005mhz. It actually isnt that bad. I get 20-40 fps on COD waw max settings @1920X1200. But i'm looking to upgrade for coming titles like BFBC2 and the fabled COD slated for late this year.
Any experience/insight would be greatly appreciated!
FYI: I do not have a board that supports SLI/CF and my system is only 16 months old, so I can't justify upgrading to the new platforms
Thanks in advance!
