I have the XFX 8600 GT XXX edition. It runs Crysis 1280 x 960 at all High with shaders and shadows turned to Medium, 40-50 fps outdoors and 20-30 fps with action.

BTW. www.tigerdirect.com is selling XFX 8600 GT XXX for $100 right now, and it comes with Company of Heros free. If you're looking for an affordable card, buy this one, it has a TON of performance for the money, it easily maxes Call of Duty 4 at 60 fps for me.

Was the first modern RTS. This game created elements that are still being used to this day in many modern RTS games. Direct interaction with units, resource collection, base building, energy production and conservation of materials, etc. Amazing how little RTS has really changed from the original formula. Dune II was truely a leap forward in gaming. If anyone wants to try it out, you can download it for free completely legal. Just google: Download Dune II.

The DUNE universe would be fricken awesome. I know they already have some, but if they put Relic and Ironclad on the job, an RTS-ish game (Kind of like Company of Heroes + Sins of a Solar Empire + Spice Mining sim. :p) set in the DUNE universe could be a masterpiece. As long as it's all real-time with a large expanse on operate on with alliances, and awesomeness...

What fan speed would you suggest? I would think maybe 40%-50%?

I was wondering, since it's factory overclocked , if it will need alternative cooling soultions because it generates more heat (80 degrees celcius on load). Should I buy a fan for my case? Or are there any cooling units for graqphics cards you would reccomend.

Thanks for any help.

How much of a performance increase is the HD 2600 Pro over my current Nvidia 7600 GS ? I want to be able to run Call of Duty 4 at medium settings and medium resolution.

How many frames per second are you getting? I looked through many websites and I couldn't find any tests. Thanks for any help.
