Pentium D, huh? Your room was be burning.
Get a nVidia 7900 or something to that effect. Even then, Oblivion will be taxing your system. On the other hand, HL2 and CS:Source will be quite nice and I believe you'll be able to ratchet the seatings to pretty high level. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

8600 is the replacement for the 7900. I thought the 8600 was more expensive than the 7900, so I recommended the 7900. However, they are around the same price once I checked the interweb. It looks like a good card for the money.
8600 GT: ~$125 7900 GT: ~$120 Testing/Benchmarks: http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2970&p=6 http://www.anandtech.com/printarticle.aspx?i=2975 Really? My suitemate's pentium d setup was burning hot at a steady 50 C without any load... There's nowhere I can't reach. |
