| 804333 | 2009-08-27 00:03:00 | Ignore Solmeister, there are plenty of people buying second hand with lower specs than that still. (Desktop I mean, not that server) Gee thanks PCT?!...You really think he would get more than around $400 for that?...why dont we see a show of hands eh?... Who here, would pay more than $400 for an exstremely overclocked 2006 CPU with 4Gb of RAM and a video card from 2007?.....get real! |

| 804337 | 2009-08-31 05:58:00 | Someone here should be able to answer this. If I got a 64gig SSD and installed windows on that how much better would gaming be if i had games installed to say a wd 640gig with 32mb cache? Worth it? |

| 804338 | 2009-08-31 06:57:00 | Depends what game it is. With most games you won't see that much of a performance increase really. | Blam (54) | ||

Who here, would pay more than $400 for an exstremely overclocked 2006 CPU with 4Gb of RAM and a video card from 2007?.....get real! gpforums.co.nz Q6600 sells for around $200 8800 GT around $80ish Ram $80 if good brand It doesnt matter if the card is from 2007, my old 7900 GTO could run most games today (tf2) at 60ish fps max settings, 1440x900 res. Also, the 8800 GT/X was the fastest single card back in 07, beats the ~9600 etc |

| 804340 | 2009-08-31 07:15:00 | TF2 is not an intensive game though, its designed for everyone to play. Is my cpu really extremely overclocked? Im sure it could be overclocked further. And Ram isnt a great brand, supertalent, cheap as chips at the time. Have had it post at 1300ish mhz though which is pretty good for ram that cost me $120 for 2 gig like 2 years ago |
