GTX 260
« on: March 25, 2009, 02:48:33 PM »
Okay I am inheriting a pc that has a amd athlon 6400+ x2 processor in it and 3gb of ram. All it needs is a good videocard.
I found someone that will sell me a gtx260 for 140 cash. Is this a good deal? I thought it was. It is brand new. Also will my processor bottleneck this? It is a 3.2 ghz dual core. I have a 600 watt powersupply in it is that enough? Thanks!

You'll probably need to upgrade the PSU, but besides that, you should be good to go!

Like blackburn said, that's a STEAL. That deal is amazingly cheap.

Yea I thought so too! I think I should meet him at the local computer shop and ask if I can test it out there because I am going about 50 miles from my house to meet him. I would really hate for it to be a dud. But he says it is still in the box.

To all of you crying about lag and kicks, remember… when Jesus died, took him 3 days to respawn. Now THAT is lag.

Yea it does, but on the bright side its less than 200 for a new bumper for my truck so at least it is not to expensive. I really hate to let it go though.
