I upgrade my system and I stated with the new CPU cooler and then I overclocked my Quad Q6600 to the 3.2 GHz , I also added ddr2 800 ram up to 4 GB . now I have this old Graphic card that only have 512 memory and that is not suitable for my 1080p plasma so I needed to upgrade my GPU . mu main concern is that the GPU with the 3.2 GHz quad cores should not be bottle necked . well someone have suggested me the nvidia 580 or ati 7970 but I think that will not be the correct option . look like I have to buy the GTX 560 Ti or HD 6870. As the RAM memory is concern I guess only 2 GB is enough. But before that I took any step further to purchasing this GPU , I like to ask you people here that most of the benchmark is base on the FPS game like the BF3 and that is not the type of game that I will going to play , I would rather play the games like the
- Prince of Persia
- Elder scrolls
- Assassin’s creed
- Civilization
Correct me if I am wrong here but isn’t it the GPU requirement for such game is lower than the FPS games. I mean I can just settle for the a 550 ti/560 or 6770/6850 and will not see any kind of difference . the problem I s that I am on budget and I have the silent PC that I use it for home theatre, microatx , so I am looking to avoid the unnecessary heating and noise as I don’t want the calculation power , although I don’t want to compromise with the gaming Quality. I am looking for the upgrade that can last for the 3 Years on the context that I only play the game that is available on the discount and most probably in 3 Years I will be playing the games like the or AC revelation or civ5. But I like to play the game on its maximum quality . so what will be the best card for me that will not bottleneck Overclocked Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 at 1080P . I s there anyone here can help me on this I will be really appreciating this
Thanks in advance
