Hey guys,
I'm switching back to PC after an unhappy excursion in the xbox gounds, so I need a few tips...I have a fairly old PC I built (for a home music studio - old but I paid big $$) and I'd like to update it step by step for gaming, well almost exclusively racing. The Mobo is a Tyan S2895 with 2 x dual core AMD opteron 270, 6 gig of DDR2 ram, etc. So I'm thinking of upgrading the video card first.
So do you guys think just putting in a GTX 560 or 570 would be enough to use that PC for racing ? (BTW I'm looking at Nvidia's because the mobo is SLI ready, in case I want to add a second card). I'd like it to drive a 32" HDTV...
I would later buy a new mobo/cpu/DDR3 memory, a 2nd card, etc.
Is a that a good plan ? Any advice is really appreciated !
