philbar71 Fully Optimized Messages 4,533 Location Suffolk, VA Feb 7, 2009 #2 it depends on what card you get, there are a lot of 9800's but a 9800GTX+ will not be bottlenecked by a e2200 but the 4870x2 will be bottlenecked.

Why not a HD 4870 or HD 4850.... But the HD 4870X2 would SEVERELY bottleneck a e2200 at low resolutions

OP OP T TekBubs In Runtime Messages 114 Location In my pants. Feb 8, 2009 #4 Wait, low resolutions? What if I play at 1680x1050 widescreen?
veg1992 Golden Master Messages 19,993 Feb 8, 2009 #5 That's considered low for an HD 4870X2.... 1080p and up wouldn't be considered "low" for an HD 4870X2... In your case you really need no more than a HD 4850
