I do want to run HIGH resolutiuon
Also, I won't have to upgrade for a while. The processor is my primary focus. I'm hoping for something faster that the 990 yet also OC's safely & reliably. Primarily, it's a semi-delusional wish list. PS can do that that to a person. I don't splurge on much, but a PS dedicated machine is an exception. I'd rather have MORE than I need than be under-powered. I've got $2,500 set aside already - I would be just fine at that price point if I chose not to save/spend more.

lol! Good times eh? I'm IT tech paying for my 2/2 apartment and living with my fiancée and 8mo daughter... And let me tell you, Miami is one expensive city to live. I was in NY a month ago and C.O.L. Is around the same :-(. I just don't have the expenses to go all out like I use to, atleast not yet :-).

Also as a friendly reminder, don't resort to personal attacks on these forum. I was at Cedar Point today with friends. Just got back at 11 PM to read forums. I'd imagine the 460 would be perfect for running the game though. I've been more worried about people thinking they can use a DX9 card with the features we've heard already. |

And I don't see why anyone would recommend a card thinking it will be SLI'd when someone states they are on a budget. :/ Last edited by Bags; 2011-07-20 at 10:49 PM. |

(Okay only post off topic I'll make. I went in 2007 when they were building it, so I rode it the first time today. The tunnel launch was amazing. I've never seen it in a roller coaster). It was 99 F in Sandusky though. I think it scared people away so we only had 1 hour 15 minute waits basically on all the coasters (Even millenium force. Then again to be fair we were there when it opened). Fun fact a prius can take you from Kalamazoo Michigan to Sandusky Ohio and back with a single tank).

Meh, my lone 460 will have to be enough because I doubt my 500w PSU can do SLI. And SLI ain't too budgety if I have to buy a new PSU. Though my next round of upgrades will probably include a PSU.
I love staying at a hotel in the park whenever I go, as you get in very early the next morning. Maverick = thrice in 30 minutes, Millennium = quatroice(?) in 30 minutes. |

I'm running my 80% 630w, watercooled E8400 @ 4.0Ghz, 4GB ram, 2x velociraptors Raid0 in adaptec hardware raidcard 256MB ram w/ battery (those 3 things are worth more than my whole computer, lol) and HD4850 512MB. the only plausible upgrade routes are... A) buy an i5 2500k + P series mobo + ram and keep my card (even though it's old tech) or B) buy a GTX 460 1GB, run the system for it's necessity and upgrade in the next year. So for right now instead of dishing out the 400, i'll pay 160 for what I need and when it comes time to upgrade (ivy bridge will be out by then) i'll cop that and get a much better performance boost having already the GTX 460 1GB. Makes perfect sense right?

For the most part I believe most gamers have moved past any DX9 gen card. There is likely many XP users that have DX10/DX11 cards on XP, but are limited to DX9 since XP has no support for that. My 7900 had trouble running the original PS with full detail on 1280x1024 (SLI helped me bump it up). Those users on even x1900/7900 will likely have trouble running this game even on low I bet.
