Default gcard plan

right now i got 8500GT fatality and 8800 gt oc

it runs css all 60 fps with verticsync but when i play zombie mod etc.. its like 30-40 even 20.(on 8800 gt oc[bfg])

so idk what to do.. my mother board isnt sli compatable and even if it was.. my power supply is only 650W

i cant even run bioshock correctly.. it just freezes when it starts.. jsut stays black

COMP SPEC::

8800 gt oc bfg
3.0 amd 6000+ dualcore
2gig
(anything else needed, ask)

my plan:

sell both of these cards, and my virginity if needed.. to buy the 8800 gts that comes with crysis.. or.. what else, anyadvice.



offftopc
what the program that tells u ur temp for card and cpu

Nvidia has programs that can tell you your card GPU...

The 8800GT has been shown to run a little better than the GTS. Your better of stickin with that or buying the GTX. Or just switch to one of ATI's new cards.

An improved one? When was this released, and why would invidia improve an old card when they just released the GT.... (ah your talking about the crysis one...)

But the ATI 3xxx HD series isn't half bad, and the price is good too.
