New Rig Options
 

I'm sure many of us are considering upgrading or buying a new PC for CoD.

So, what would you choose?

If my q6600 @3.0ghz should fail to run CoD (with a 8800gt video card), I'll consider the new i7 2600 3.4 Ghz, for a video card I'm oriented to purchase an Hd 6950 although I prefere Nvidia. At the same price Hd6950 (268€) is more powerful than GTX 560 (263€). GTX 570 would be my first choise but to much expensive 4me (358€). Prices are related to my reseller, I haven't done a market survey.

It really depends on how much are you willing to spend.A AMD cpu pc would certainly be cheaper and will perform similar to a intel cpu.Flagship Nvidia gpu's are faster than the faster ATI single gpu's but they are a bit more expensive.64bit OS if you intend to use more than 2gb of ram something you obviously would need to run this game.

Are there any AM3 boards for SLI?

Could be coming out in March, nothing right now

The AM3+ plus boards?

I have a
i7 920
6 gig of ram
1tb HDD
and just ordered a hd 6950 today

Now I would choose Intel I7 2600 CPU, Nvidia 560Ti GPU, maybe Hd 6950, 64 Bit Windows 7. But since it is now effectively impossible to buy a modern PC until late April/May I will probably wait to see what the Bulldozer AMD CPUs will offer.

Wot?? No WinXP?

How dare you sir for not including it!



j/k

I believe they will have the nVidia 980i chipset - not sure what socket they'll be
