I recently took a step to upgrade my Graphics card. I went from a XFX 5850 Black Edition to a XFX 6950 2GB card. I'm not too tech savvy, but i know how to compare spec numbers as well as do some basic comparison searches. If you are wondering what my full system spec's were before the upgrade i will tell you. Keep in mind the only thing i changed out is JUST the graphics card. Here it goes.
Intel Core i7-920 Bloomfield 2.66GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Processor
ASRock X58 Extreme Motherboard LGA 1366
CORSAIR XMS3 6GB 1600 RAM
XFX Radeon HD 5850 (Cypress Pro) 1GB Black Edition
Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s
Sunbeam PSU-ECO750-US-BL 750W ATX12V 2.3 80 PLUS Certified
LG 24" 1080p Monitor
let me know what you think please, as well as maybe some other recommended changes.
