Hello,
Question #1
Recently I ordered a new video card. (The GTX460 1GB) Before this I had a brand new 470 from MSI that i had to RMA due to it being defective, but while it worked for about 2 days it ran just cause 2 perfectly with max everything, ran Age of Conan with 50 FPS with everything enabled max.
I am not going to lie....I fell in love with the performance.
I was convinced to change my mind and save myself some money and grab the 460 and overclock it a tad, making it about 10% from the 470 in performance(Which didn't sound to right)
Anyway I gave in, and I am waiting for the card to be shipped to my doorstep.
I decided to go back to the green side due to my many problems with my ATI cards. Anyway, I don't feel right...Maybe I'm scared i will lose all that performance? Can someone enlighten me?
Games I will be playing~
Mass Effect 2, Just Cause 2
Waiting to play~
Final Fantasy XIV
Moniter= 19" 1440x900 Basic LCD (If you need more info just ask)
Question #2
System Specs:
AMD Phenom II x4 940 Black Edition 3.0Ghz
Gigabyte MoBo MA78GM-US2H rev 1.0
4GB of 1066 Dual Channel DDR2 RAM
Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 32mb Cache
610(670 Max) High Performance PSU
Soon to be replaced(ATI 5770 1GB)
Antec 300 with 5 fans
(Would love you opinion on what I should upgrade next with my system...)
Will probably OC my Processor to 3.2.
Maybe my Ram needs to be upgraded?
Thank you (sorry for the long read)
