feel your pain , i hope a dual core can handle the game for you.
good luck
I'll be getting a quad core, just matter of waiting for one to turn up... Don't really want to cough up $130 for a brand new chip for the dated AM3 motherboard I have, especially when I see quad core CPU's pop up for it every so often for about $30.
Having said that, a good used motherboard and higher spec quad core i5 is probably the way to go for best bang/buck.
Oh Cm'on, yo can use this cheap piece of wire as I do to power up my GPU
it's a CPU Power Supply converter, I've been using that foar an R7 GPU without a problem since 6 months ago.
I did consider that, for a short time, but the reality is (and I had to take remove my PSU to see the specs, because they were written on the secion that was hard up against the case...), that my real problem is...
If this was like my video cards it wasn't as much the cable but that the power supply didn't have the umph to power the card.
That. My PSU is 450w, 500w is the suggested minimum. Not normally being the "minimum' kind of person, I'm just going to go with something in the 750w+ region, this should allow for future upgrades without concern.
I miss ED. I was halfway to Evergreen 2 nights ago, I really wanted to get there...
something to look forward to in B3, I guess...
