    Upgrading CPU vs. GPU

    I know there have been quite a few topics on this already, but it's where people already post what they have and I need a straight answer. When should you upgrade your CPU as compared to your GPU? What are the factors that determine you need a better CPU or GPU? Would I even need more RAM...

    Bump, and further update. Turns out refresh rate may indeed be an issue. I'm in COD World at War, and when I have it on 1600x900 with a 59 hz refresh rate, it works, however when I switch to 60 hz refresh, it doesn't. Strange.

    As an update, I uninstalled all Nvidia Drivers and Software and reinstalled them. The issue still persists. Also I am unable to auto config my monitor as the option is grayed out. I don't know why, as it wasn't on my old PC.

    In safe mode, I was able to uninstall everything BUT the PhysX Software because it said I couldn't uninstall it during safe mode. Edit: I also kept having issues uninstalling everything, as when I would install the driver I would have to restart, then when I logged back in Windows would start...
