the 7600GT is like a 6800GS. so i guess it should run it smoothly, but dont quote me on that

Dthltr · 25 Mar 2006 at 17:59

It depends if your friend is going to run cod2 with directx7 or 9. For DX7 it should be fine with fps of over 100, but if he wants to run it at DX9 then he might get fps of 50 or below on some maps such as Matmata with the dust on.

syke · 25 Mar 2006 at 18:09

he wants it for decent games..music and general use for just himself. DX7 id say.

Runningkid · 25 Mar 2006 at 18:45

well coz i put in a SLI board in it, u can always down taht and some otehr bits to get a 7800GT as they are onli 176 now

xirokx · 25 Mar 2006 at 18:46

tell him to wait and get an extra £100 so u can get a x2 3800 and slightly better graphics card......

syke · 25 Mar 2006 at 19:35

If you want to get it even lower, swap the DVD-RW to a standard DVD player (e.g. Samsung SH-D162 DVD-ROM (Black) - OEM (CD-002-SA))

Ill pass that on..looks a good spec

Explicit · 25 Mar 2006 at 19:52

Updated to include mouse & keyboard

xirokx · 25 Mar 2006 at 21:30

So no to OC'ing.

syke · 25 Mar 2006 at 21:58
