I have pentium 4 3.4 1gb corsair platium and 5600 256mb nvidia http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-130-191&depa=1 i bought this system for gameing only and i messed up with vid card i hear alot people say that that video card has low fps ! will i be able to run doom 3 smooth? on high settings? or should i upgrade to 6800gt? if i uprade to 6800gt and i overclock it to 400/1100 *ultra speed* will it run good with stock fan? or i will have to get extra fans? PS: i have no liqued cooling
the fx5600 is **** and so is the fx range except the 5900 go for an iti you can get a 9800 for cheaper than that i brought a 5600 and now i wish i didnt i can get better from a ti 4200 and they are quite old
I'm going to for 6800gt then! what about over clocking?will stock fan do the job or i have to buy another?
no need for water cooling i have about 5fans in case + very huge processor fan i think it called volcane 7+ thermaltake!
stock fan should be fine on the 6800 then if not you could always get something else fan wise not really that expensive
your better of trying stock fan fisrt as the stock fan will be pulling air from your computer so if you want cool air going in to your card thats not the way about it depending on which way you have that blue fan card so stick with stock and if you have any probs pm me and ill link you a good 6800 fan ok
5600xt i bought a 128mg 5600xt got it home and my old geforce 3 ti200 64 beat it on 3dmark 01se by abount 600points
