CPU: DualCore Intel Pentium D 930, 3000 MHz (15 x 200) RAM: 2048 MB (DDR2-667 DDR2 SDRAM) GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT (256 MB) I wanted to know if my setup can play Call of Duty 4 with all the settings on and on high.
more or less any c2d(pentium dual core works as well since it's based off of core 2 duo) for the CPU for the video card - HD 3850, HD 3870, GeForce 9600GT, GeForce 8800GS, GeForce 8800GT, GeForce 9600GSO all of the above would work well and are all over twice as powerful as the 8600.
Are you saying his pentium d is based of c2d? That is far from correct, the pentium d series were horrible unless overclocked alot. Your current setup should be sufficient to run the game on at least medium. The 8600GT is more or less ok for the time being. Best thing to do would be to buy and play the game, then see how you think it looks. DeFuZioN
No, pentium D's were based of P4 architecture and suck. I think he's meaning the Pentium E2140/2160's which are based off conroe and cost like ~80$
Hey guys, back again. Was thinking if this would be any better than my current CPU. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16819115028
Yes, a lot. I'd guess you'd have to replace your mobo while to use it though. And you should probably get new ram if you're going to bother doing that
Aww shaiz, I have to change my muthaboard? Any cpu that wouldn't require changing motherboards? I was also thinking of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130318 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817139006 I'm open for suggestions.
Depends on what mobo you have now. If you can find out what you have now, it'd be much easier to tell you
I think this is the one I have a Intel Lakeport-G i945G for a chipset. It doesn't give me the mobo name. http://www.nivo.co.za/product/293
