Default 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.
Ciao

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.

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.

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