Little video of me playing GRID on my system at 1680 x 1050, highest settings, 2 X AA. Normally runs at 36 - 44 FPS, but FRAPS slowed it down to about 20 FPS when recording this video.System Spec:AMD X2 4600+ 2.83Ghz Overclock2GB Kingston DDR2 800Mhz ramGigabyte GA-MA69VM-S2 MotherboardXFX 8800GS 384MB Alpha Dog Edition160GB Samsung Sata II HDDHitachi DVD-RWAllied 500w Dual Rail PSU (15a & 16a on 12v rails)Ebuyer Black Mid Case1 x 120mm Blue LED side fan1 x 80mm exhaust fan3DMark06 Score: 96693DMark Vantage: 5528Running Driver Version 177.92 (Beta)Cost under £230, and plays most games highest settings at high res.

Sep 15, 2008 - Nice set up man. Should be able to handle gaming for another year or so on all high. After that you'll have to start setting games on medium.

Sep 15, 2008 - Thanks man.This really is a cheap computer though, funny how people think to game you need a massive spec when in reality a few cheapish bits and a half decent graphicsGonna upgrade the ram soon hopefully to 4GB Corsair as I have Vista 64, and probably upgrade the CPU to something slightly better. Wouldn't mind a Phenom 9850 or something similar.Then obviously when my GPU Starts to struggle I'd ideally like an ATI 4870 or GTX260/GTX280.I'm fine for now though! :o)

Sep 15, 2008 - Its well worth it bro. AMD is a great company and if it weren't for them I probably would be using a much slower Dell. While Nvidia is a great company, even though Ati is giving them a run for their money. Nvidia understands at least that they should also cater to the lower end market. While Intel is a little over priced and have cut throat business strategies.Just be proud of what you have and be thankful I guess.
SouthEastBlue Says:
Sep 15, 2008 - YeahI like AMD despite Intel offering what most would class as better CPU's (more so when overclocked than at standard speeds).Still I fancy sticking with AMD I've been more than happy with my system so far and it's performance.Anyway take it easy man, and look out for more vids as I'm gonna be modding my case soon so will probably try and add something on here.Later on! :o)
