Question for the computer humpers

[MrShovelFace]

So i am thinking about upgrading my card because of slow performance

(and the fact that my power supply can handle a lot more at this moment)

but i first want to evaluate if my video card is the limiting factor in all this

AMD Athlon II X4 635 processor (2.9 Hhz)
4g DDR3 of ram
Windows7 (64 bit)
Nvidea 9200 video card

I am really only comfortable getting an Nvidea card because i know the heirarchy to a degree but if my video card is holding me back which one should i get? and explain why

Yes, your video card is definitely the slowest in that setup. So unless you're only playing on 640x480 or lower resolutions you should get a new one.

I'd say the GTX 460 would be a good one, as they are fast enough to play everything (but Crysis 2) on 1920x1200 fluidly and they're said to be pretty quiet. And also not that expensive.

Nothing can play Crysis 2 on Very High. They just put it there to mock you.

GTS 450... yeah it might be £100... But its fast, comes with a progam that lets you see its temparature, change how much strain you want to put on it and shit like that.
Also I have it, meaning it has to be awsome!

Since I know you you are always expecting a new comp next week or upgrading something

[MrShovelFace]

the last time i upgraded my computer was a year ago FYI noct and that was a direly needed upgrade from a 2.1 duo core with nvidea 6200 (there hasnt been a computer in 7 or so years that could use that card that)

Crysis 2 does not really demand much of the computer ;'(

I had expected my rig to run at medium or high, disappointed when i could run it in very high. Well hopefully the dx11 patch will fix this

Wait, you get disappointed when your rig can run the game on the max level?

lol.

[H4rdn3ssKill3r]

Silly ninja its not max...

you can get a file that lets you configure it and the BEST pc ever can only run it at max and I mean MAX at about 5FPS.
