Do you guy think i would be able to play Sc2 on high res ?


i dont think u can do 4x 5970, that's 8x gpu since the 5970 is a dual gpu graphics card just like the gtx 295. not to mention i dont see why you would need 4x 5970's, 2x 5970's already dominate the gpu market right now hands down.

You're right, but i think 2x5970 will just barely be enough to run SC2 on low. 4x5970 is gonna be a must if you want any resolution above 800x600.

x2 3800 @ 2.7ghz (socket 939)
4850 1gb
2gb ddr1 ram (3 random mismatched sticks so having to run them at ddr 386 cas2.5)

Got the video card for free from a friend, so I figured I'd try and breath some life into my old girl. I bought an aftermarket cooler for $5 after rebate, and tried my hand at overclocking. I'm hoping this will let me survive on this a few more years so I can hold off on upgrading for the 8 and 16 core monsters on the horizon.

I think I should be ok with the proc but I'm worried about the ram speeds, what do you guys think?

Yeah, take your pick. I was faithful to amd in the old days but after getting burned on socket 939 I have allegiance to nothing but performance per dollar

i believe you've overclocked 800mhz right? I bet you could go higher, considering the 6000+ hit like around 3.5ghz at the highest (non-liquid nitrogen) overclocks. With some proper RAM (DDR400 is pretty cheap) + Show Spoiler +
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231047
you could probably push your overclock a ~100mhz higher and get better overall performance.

The video card is great though, you're probably bottlenecking it anyway.

It's socket 939 that is a very underpowered cpu and ram, it's ddr not ddr2 ram :D.
He has legit reason for concern as rts games are somewhat cpu dependent. graphics card is more then fine, he's probably fine as long as he has a small monitor.

What was the line about the RAM about? I linked to DDR ram in the newegg link.

Also I don't think socket 939 is that underpowered really. I've a friend who still plays with an old rig because he doesn't have much money. With a stock 4400+, 2gb of DDR-400 and a 7600GT he plays borderlands and MW2 playably (although at low settings)

I assumed with the reference to the 6000+ which is a socket am2 thus ddr2 you made the mistake :D
well all low is scarping the bottom of the barrel which for some of us who are spoiled by good computer parts is unacceptable.

When's the next AMD processor supposed to come out? I heard they were doing a 6 core thing but that it's still going to use AM3 socket.

Q2 2010 i'm pretty positive it'll use am3 socket as the earliest revisions to am3 were planned for 2011.
the world's a playground. you know that when you're a kid, but somewhere along the way everyone forgets it.

I mentioned the 6000+ because the Windsor wasn't really much of a revision to the previous xxxx+ dual cores other than AM2 support and (I think?) a smaller die, along with random other miscellaneous things.

If you're looking forward to 6+ cores then you looking forward to windows 8 and better just dump XP in the trash, which will be the main improvement over windows 7. Actually, what were going to see in W8 will make XP quite outdated, as it will use multi threading and "APU"/gpgpu usage much better than what we have today, even with W7.In the cpu section, in the AMD Intel general discussion sticky,early on, I gave links to W7 and its MT usage, and how its all going to change once we hit 8 cores on up, how itll leave XP in the dust.These chips are due in 2010 and 2011, plus LRB and the AMD "APU" approach as well.
And why can't this be done via a patch to windows 7?
because itll mainly be the floating point units being more used, or able to be used by W8, as well as better threading in a MT solution. As devs write their code in a MT friendly way, the OS working with these new Int/FP solutions, cpus with gfx capable on chip, it all works hand in hand, from SW to OS to HW. Where still nowheres near where we want to be, but even W7 using a 8 core will simply trample XP they way it deals with MT right now, and no patch can change this, just like the kernal was changed on Vista for DX10, no patch makes XP actually play a DX10 game, only thru emulation SW, which is too slow to be effective. Same here with the new OS'
