If you play PC gaming in general, you'd understand that the resolution consoles can support doesn't even match what PCs output.

Alright, I'm pretty short on cash these days, but I need a SERIOUS cpu upgrade. I have a Core 2 Duo 6320 (1.86 Ghz) that can't be overclocked (at least being stable) because it's a dell. It's struggling with games at 1920x1080. I'll hold off buying a new video card until I get some more cash (I have a 9800 GT, OCed quite a deal).
I'm thinking a AMD Phenom II x4 955 Black Edition for the CPU. Could you guys help me out with a motherboard, case (one that can fit a 5850), and RAM, and whatever else? Cheap as possible, please and thank you!
First game was kind of enjoyable, they just had to work on the cover system/story a little. And it looks like they are.
I got the PC game for $2 on Amazon :)
I had a 8600 GTS before I got my current card, and it was actually a pretty decent card. I dunno how MUCH better it is then the GT, but it handeled games great at 1440x900 resolution. I could play Crysis on medium settings with decent FPS, but overall, good card. I gave it to my friend and he loves it (he had a 7300 LE, which was a POS!!!)
1. COD2
2. COD1 + UO
3. Call of Duty 4
4. Call of Duty: World at War
4. Modern Warefare 2
Haven't played COD3, don't plan on it either.
You can get a 9800 GT on Newegg for like, $100 these days. Makes me wonder if I should just buy another one to SLI with the one I already have, rather than getting a new card.
9800 GT is still a great card, it maxes most games in the mid range resolutions, though it struggles with some at 1920x1080 resolution.

It's a gimmick, really. You're watching artificial frames that were never meant to be there, which gives the "fluid" looking picture. I'd call it anything but "fluid," because honestly I think it looks like crap also.

It is not the 120Hz refresh rate that gives you the soap opera look. It's AMP (Samsung) or Motionflow (Sony) that does that.
The 120Hz refresh rate removes judder. 24 will divides evenly into 120. (5:5 pulldown)
60Hz causes judder. 24 will not divide into 60 evenly. Frames are dropped (3:2 pulldown)
AMP and Motionflow can be turned off so movies retain that "movie" look.
If you're serious about researching this I suggest visiting the AVSForums.
Thanks for clearing that up, I get MotionFlow technology mixed up with tv hertz, I dunno why though.
