Computer Processor+Video Card question

iLiekYoshi · February 2011

I have to buy a prebuilt because my dad doesn't let me build a custom.

so i have the choice of

AMD Phenom™ II X6 1075T + ATI Radeon HD 4200 (1GB i think? can someone confirm)
or
AMD Phenom™ II X6 1045T + ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB

For the same price of both, which combo should i choose?

The second one on the list is definitely the better out of the two.

is this correct? can i get someone elses opinion before i confirm :P

second one, then over clock the processor. even with out overclocking. definatly second one

Hezzi · February 2011

Overclocking is good, but it has it's risks. If you get 80+ FPS out of it without OC'ing, don't OC it.

i hope i can get 80+ FPS on this thing. really needed a new desktop. The one i have ATM is a freaking Dell 2400 Dimension, 7 years old. older than most Brazilians in the game

1of300sparta · February 2011

trust. graphics card is definatly more important then the processor when your getting a 6 core.

my 8 year old desk top, just got 1gb ram and a pci 1 graphics card today, averaging 40 fps. that thing will definatly get over 80

anything over 60 you wont notice though, because of v sync

ty for the opinions i'm not ganna bother with this dell dimensions thing. can't fit more than 2 GB ram. even if it can, i have to get all of the freaking dust bunnies out of tower.

Try seeing how much FPS you get on that PC in a 8v8 Egypt TD match, with people throwing Red Smokes everywhere.

Falkentyne1 · February 2011

The 5450 is a better card for sure; the 4200 is slow as molasses, heck, that card is SLOWER than a five year old X1900XT !! TBH, both cards sort of suck; pairing a (3?) core CPU with cards that slow is enough to make them sue for torture.

Kinda sucks that you can't build a custom system. Best way to learn how to get good and indepedent with building your own systems is to start young and fast.

The 2400 gets 10 in that situation. and when i double zoom into that smoke, it freezes lol

Hezzi · February 2011

Oh. That's not too good. I get 40 FPS in those situations, double zooming with my AWM. Red smoke gives me 30 FPS double zooming.

x6 processors are useless if you are just gaming. Games don't use all of the cores you're better off buying a quadcore. With the money you save on the CPU you could get a real GPU. Just saying.

quote for truth. i dunno what kinda games he wants to play though, how many monitors and such....

froggyman123 · February 2011

It would be nice to have screen resolution and budget too.

i got i7 950 6 gb ram
gtx 460 1 gb..
with 80~100 at egypt 16 players.. sometimes jump to 150-180.. depends the players around u. n it's with windows 7 64 bit.
when i boot in to my windows xp i get 40+ more FPS no matter what..
n i also OCing it to 4.0 original is 3.03 .. fps didn't change at all...

Get the 2nd option has a *bit* slower processor, but much better graphics card.

loolwut · March 2011

Choose the first one, srsly. You can play cf with 100 fps in a 8v8, and you can always get a good graphic card later
The second ones graphic card is horrible i swear. In the 5000 series the only worth buying are 5750 or higher

LAMPEDDD · March 2011

Obviously the Second one.

Losing a few mhz won't kill you but driect X11 will change much.

WHY X6? CORES ARENT THAT IMPORTANT...GET A DUAL WIT A GOOD VIDEO CARD.......I GET 75FPS TO 90FPS WITH THIS PC

That PC is using an integrated video card.

This game only uses directx9, so it doesnt matter
Btw it just 'supports' dx11 and actually it CANT handle any game that has dx11 ( not mention the 5770 is not good at this too )

sLiqweed · March 2011

prebuilt computers... sigh.

I'd just go for something with a quad core CPU and at least an AMD 6870 GPU.

5000-series aren't good at handling dx11 titles.

forever119 · March 2011

if u want some decent price n reliable gaming set up.. .
i prefer Intel & nvidia . . .
get an I5 dual CPU 3x or 4 x GBs of DDR Ram n a gtx460 or higher graphic card.
get Windows xp 32 bit sp3 instead of windows 7...

believed or not . u will get 120+ FPS at 8 vs 8... price will be around $600 or a little more..

AMD can't perform just what Intel could..

CookieMunzta · March 2011

Definitely the first one.

I didn't rate the 5450 AT ALL, a pretty basic GPU. Don't OC the processor though, if this is a stock build, chances are it's built to handle specific heat, no point burning out that CPU for nothing, especially when it doesn't need it.

You could always upgrade that 4200 series for not too much, it's not great, but it'd handle anything out there right now, so no rush.

TomTomDam · March 2011

I have ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics card - it works wonderfully!
I just need a brand new processor.
