Hi,
I currently have a dual core Atom 330 with Hyperthreading @ 1.6Ghz per core (but OS sees 4 logical processors). It has 1Mb of cache, which is quite low. I have installed 4Gb of 4-4-4-12 gaming RAM. The board also has the inbuilt Nvidia ION graphics chipset.
Now...my question is...what is the best GPU i can install. If I was to splash out £200 on a top end Nvidia 1Gb board, would this allow me to play CoD4 etc (modern games) on high settings...or is the CPU speed going to be a major factor.
What is the best card I can get for this setup (and use to its fullest potential)...without me spending extra money on a GPU thats going to be held back by the processor.
Regards
Luke
