I saw another bloke in the forum state he got excellent results from that card. To be honest i was looking at that and a few others, but was really considering the gtx590 lol.. solely cause i love nvidia. But with both requiring PCIe v2 ill need to upgrade the MB too, which means a new cpu... and ram rofl. Well, a top of the range card aint needed then

cheers

im running hte game mac graphics with a well below specs than the provided.
out of my quad core 2.5 and my 3gb ddr2, only 35% of CPU is used and1 gig of memory is being used. still plenty of space for cod to get better.

Those where the details I didn't look at.

Maybe O/C then!?

I'm running maxed out except SSAO is off at 2560 x 1600 and while the FPS dips into high to mid 20s on occasion even then the feel is still fluid enough for the game to remain perfectly playable. At 1920 x 1200 it's far smoother of course, just needs decent FSAA (forcing it via the NV CP does nothing, even with the latest full-screen patch, and the game's own x8 is lacking effect).

I did that when it 1st come out lol (had to be done)

could only overclock the cpu from a 3.0 to a 3.24 (216 fsb x 15 multi) before it became unstable or no boot, and didnt really make a difference, which was a shame. Also chucked the voltage up on the card to see, but made no difference either. NM, im lookin forward to a new build

This ones lasted a good few years, the next one will last for ages i should say
