My System is Pretty Old, But I need to upgrade to be able to play CSS (Atleast 30fps!!min)
Right now i have the following Specs
1.7Ghz P4
512Mb Samsung Generic PC133 Ram
80G WDC Hard Drive
XFX Geforce Fx 5200 (OCed Right now at 300/450)
Intergrated Sound
My Budget is 200 CDN(After Shipping + Tax)
So Basically I am looking at a Geforce 6600GT(EVGA)
or a ATI 1600Pro which is slightly cheaper(about 20 dollars)
The main game i am going to play is Hl2, and CSS
Will gettting a 6600Gt or 1600Pro boost my frame rates for now? (Right now i am getting 15 - 25 fps in CSS which is not good, sometimes drop to 10 in firefights, very unplayable)
If it can get me a min of 30fps, then its fine...
Also I want to play games like COD2, Bf2, or maybe Fear
Really don't need alot of eye-candy..I usually just want to run games at 1024x768 at low or med...Even 800x600 is good enough for me..
Thanks
