Need help with Combat Arms

[minnymolly2]

All my pc specs are way past recommended when i did CANURUNIT except graphic card, which plays at good frames, about 20-30, almost no lagg, but how about this graphic card update, and I'm on like a 40$ budget, cause i ahve to beg mom to buy lol, and still maybe =\

BFG GeForce 8400 GS Video Card - 512MB DDR2, PCI-Express 2.0, (Dual Link) DVI. VGA, HDTV at TigerDirect.com Please replay as to how well that would run Combat arms without recording with fraps, and how it would run while recording fraps

aww bro, finally i found another person who plays combat arms!!

your going to have to tell us what your specs are, so it not a bottleneck solution, and also your PSU. hey what ur ign? get the nvidia card, ATi cards just look good on paper..

 

[smarteyeball]

ATi cards just look good on paper..

deja vu. No, they don't.

 

[kiddieboy12]

debatable, so i'll argue ATi card 2600XT that i got, 800mhz core clock and 2.2ghz memory clock with 120 steam processors lost to a NVIDIA 8600gts....

nvidia 8600gts has 32 steam processors with 650mhz core and 1.2ghz memory clock,

benchmark showed the ATi card otherwise..

wow, nice rig HD 4890, how much are they?

the 4890's are about $200 a piece...... and two of them cf are about the fastest gpu setup you can get :D they can outperform the 295 when cf (and the 295 is a two core card).......
oh hey guys............ HD5870's coming out in a few months...... dx11 baby! haha
