oh okay

why get a $300 cpu when a $100 cpu does the same thing? why get a $300 gpu when an integrated gpu does the same thing?

gosh
you sir are one not to be saying that.

You are taking my words out of context.

When i suggested my monitor compared it to other monitors of SIMILAR sepecifications

i.e. same res 1080p

same response time 2ms

similar contrast ratios etc

a cheaper CPU will do the same thing as a high end CPU i.e process binary code. But the high end one will do it faster. same goes for GPUs.

you've just missed the whole point of what i've been trying to tell you

i.e. spend more to buy a monitor with an IPS panel instead of a TN panel

you are stupid

He is, didnt think girl gamers existed and when proven wrong, blamed it on not following girl gaming clans.

CPU = tick


GPU = cross... $300 GPU is not even that expensive nowadays ... I'm getting $510 (gtx 560ti sli) to try to max out BF3... which probably won't or have very little FPS.

Would you expect much performance increase with sli gtx 560ti over a single GTX 570? IS BF3 coded to take full advantage of sli configurations? I would like to see some benchmarks (if you've researched it)
