Video Card ordered
by [SoC]Drizzt » Sun Feb 28, 2010 1:45 am
Ok, after all the crap with running a 10 revision old 8800GTX I have ordered a His 5770. Bought it due to price and if I want more speed, just get another one at a later date. Hopefully it will be here Tuesday or Wednesday.

You cannot lift the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men’s initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.†—William J. H.

Card is in and it plays MW2 at 60-85fps at 1600xsomething and everything turned up. Downloading Bad Comp now, and will see what it does tomorrow, if the servers are balancing out. As for a proc, that is my next purchase. If I can find a cheap enough C2, I will go that route, but I am also thinking about going the way of an AM2 setup.
