I currently have a PC with a solid good GCard, a GeForce 7900 GS, with a pretty not good CPU, an AMD Athlon 64 3500+. People tell me, "that CPU ain't bad, just old." For me it's bad... Company of Heroes load times are fairly long, but once the loading is done I wait for about a minute, lower the settings... still too long, it's fustrating; I can't get into many games, load times are just like bad... Same thing for Battlefield 2142, load up, click join, the game plays at like it plays at about 2-10 FPS for 1-2 minutes then its super smooth. I know this isn't good, because my cousin has the same GCard, game settings, ISP, and same hardwire internet connection, but he's got an Intel Pentium 4 with HT. He plays fine. So, I kinda got off track with the CPU story... what I'm doing is making a PC with these:
Shuttle SD39P2
Intel Core 2 Duo
320 GB SATA
2GB DD2 800
And Some old PC Parts:
GCard 7900 GS
DVD DL RW/R Drive
Monitor and what not
Once I put all this hardware together, what will happen on the first PC Bootup? What will the system do? Do I just put in my Vista Boot Disk and install windows? Well please tell me if this rig should play games, stress-free, and if this will work out. Thanks.
