Just a short question do you think my system will be good enough for gears of war, unreal tournament?:S
Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 (1.8ghz)
MSI P965 Neo-F Socket 775
Western Digital HDD X2 RAID 0 (74gb)
Elixir 2GB 6400 800MHz DDR2 X4 (8gb)
ATI Radeon 2900XT (512MB)
Windows XP
In case your wondering why I went for a 1.8ghz I suffer from motion sickness and can't play games at high speeds (even wow):sad:. I really hope my processor will not bottleneck my system.

I presume your taking the mick.... I suffer with really bad motion sickness and have never experianced any issues with playing games.

but in answer to your question yes the cpu speed may bottlenbeck your system but should clock quite well if required.

It sounds like you presume a slower cpu will give you slow motion? and a fast one will make everything run faster like twice the speed?!

I was told to wear sunglasses does this help???? Being serious for a moment would my system be good enough to play these games and in the future the more up to date ones being released? I usually change my system every couple of yrs but I hope this will last me a few more; my last machine was:
amd 64 (3000)
msi neo3 platium
2.5gb ram (curcial)
hdd raptor 36gb
ati 9800 pro

No the 2900 is perfectly fine for new games, and the 3D mark top score is on two ddr4 versions of it so stfu nvidia lovers. OC your cpu and that will be a perfectly acceptable system for gaming.

I was just wondering that too...

Why the hell did he pay for 8GB Ram when he can only use 3GB of it.

Seems a waste of money to me.

(must be saveer value ram)

Well its not rubbish but i mean a better one.
