My aging machine spec:
Pentium D 3.2GHz (Presler, Dual core, just before the Core2Duos came out)
8800GT
etc.
My burning question is: Is there any point in upgrading the video card because I may be CPU limited?
Barely acceptable performance in MW2, BC2 beta was a 10fps joke. The kicker is my Asus P5LD2 socket 775 mobo cannot be upgraded to anything better, unlike my other machine (P5B mobo). If I could make this machine run MW2 significantly better with just a videocard I'd do it.
