Just wondering your guys thoughts on how fast of a cpu would be needed for this next wave of cards without cpu limiting? I realize the lower res the cpu is more of a faster which, for the time being, I am more interested in since i have a 19" LCD monitor. I am currently running a s939@2.95 so i was thinking i should not have a prob but just figured i would get some additional input. thanks
 
I assume your 'S939 @ 2.95GHz' is a dual core X2 right? If so, you'll be fine. If it's a single core A64, you may be CPU bottlenecked in multithreaded games.
 
thx guys, that link does the trick nicely. Seeing as how i am above the different proc tested there should not be a prob with my system and new gpu/games. BTW, yeah mine is a dual core sorry that i forgot to mention that.
