Hi all,
Just wanted your opinion on a graphics card, I have always used nvidia cards and happy to continue to use them, the problem is i am building a new system and about to order over the next few days but not sure what graphics card to get.
The system: Phenom II955
Asus M4A88T-M
Corsair TX650
Corsair Dominator DDR3 1600mhz 4GB
Coolermaster elite 430
Liteon DVd/RW
Wd 500gb HDD
The resolution that i am using at the moment is only 1280x1024 but with in the next few months i wall be using a asus 24Inch 120mhz display at 1920x1080 so thats what i need to base it on.
The two graphics cards i am looking at is
Asus gtx460 1gb

Asus gtx470

or v2

I will be using this system for gaming, dawn of war 2, crysis and warhead and when the new one comes out, all call of dutys, medal of honor and so on.
The thing is the gtx 470 is about 30 pound more and fits in my budget but if i got the gtx460 i could use the money somewhere else on the system like a better case or phenom II 965 and so on.
What do you think is best keep the same system or downgrade gpu and upgrade other parts.
Whats your opinion. thanks
