Your right, i could buy it for 300$+. Don't know if it is better to buy a new 1155 board and a core2duo Cpu~ around 400$ i suppose, or to stay on the 775 board and buy a quad core for 300 $

Nobody answerd my question about the 9600GSO card

Agree I priced up the Q series as I have a Q9650 in the tester and thought a spare would be nice until I saw the price and that was in Ebay and the prices averaged around $350 - if you could find one like you said mate.

Now for that sort of money why not run to a 1155 board and i5 CPU?

Mati

Procesori Intel CPU LGA1155 Intel® Core

Memorija DIMM DDR3 8GB 1600MHz Kingston CL10, KHX1600C10D3B1/8G - Ram memorije - Ra

I bet that is a good combination, cheep, and good for me. I would like to buy 2 sticks of the RAM so that i have 16 GB, maybe later fill all 4 slots. Then, i would be able to buy a GTX 550/660 or a HD 7xxx series. but that will not happen soon

Sorry about the GPU, I'm not very knowledgeable in that area.

I would advise another brand of mobo that MSI. I personally favor ASUS and some EVGA boards.

I did a benchmark test with FurMark

Maybe your friend would let you test the 9600. It has similar specs to the 5400 so may not be better. Min 1FPS and Max 5FPS doesn't seem to me to be good. Did the donut and background move?

yes, but it was lagging like hell! Same as watching pictures on a slide show. If you want, i could record my screen, while the test is running, with Dxtory.

Sure a video would be fine.

9600GSO is rebranded 8800GS (mid range) it should be faster than HD 5450 (entry level).. but its older
