I had 17" CRT monitor running at 1280x1024, Its small as hell!! you should try it at 1024 x 768 if you still plan on using it.

maybe 10 fps? you have a low end card running at 1280x1024 and you switch you a high end card running 1080p

and... maybe the 5870 won't even fit in your "Mercury ATX" Case cause the "Mercury PSU" you have there is crappy. Buy a good Case too that can fit a 5870.

Ah, we have come to Crysis :toast:

Don't bother about Crysis (or Metro 2033 for that matter) The difference will be somewhat large, since that you only have 2GB or ram.

sry JP.........im not a gr8 guy like u!!

Yeah, sorry about the outrageous comment, but I don't get how you can claim to like a piece of hardware, that you haven't laid hands on before.
You usually like/hate hardware that after you bought it and it has provided with the kind of thing you were looking for, or not.

And I was loosing my head trying to help you, while you wandered spamming here and there, never really giving any idea what are you really thinking of doing. You change your opinions/ideas faster than cleverbot changes a conversation matter.

And about the 2x2GB DDR2 1066MHz upgrade, no, it won't. Well, at least not a lot.

How can 10fps be a huge deal for you? At what FPS are your games running??

@ lyndonrakista - +1 on th conclusion. That is what really needs to be done.

NO NO and NO, only 2 x 2gb ddr2 667 is needed. 1066 is only for Overclockers like an aftermarket CPU Cooler
