look at my sig and Jolez... its 5400 RPM...

 

General.......yes there is something wrong with my card, it is too outdated and doesn't deliver the performance I would like to have in the games that I play. If I have everything set to performance I am getting decent fps but the quality isn't as good as I would like, and my computer could make better use of a performance card like the 9700 Pro.......so one day when the prices get low enough and I am able to save enough............

Thanks!

 

ok then... do whatever. It's always good to upgrade the video card though dont get me wrong.

 

See my sig

wait, I just see I still have to update it... :uhoh:

I'm a big Intel fan and I hardly ever sell or throw away used parts, unless they're FUBARED (which doesn't happen very often), which is why I have quite a few machines at home.
