Just want you to let you know that you should really think about buying it or not. Be clear that you pay like idk 100€ for Call of Duty 4 ...

I spoke to a guy who has a 4850 and plays cod4, he can get 130 fps on highest but caps it at about 90. So it's fine for me :)

omg you cant take cod4 as benchmark btw its too expensive for its power you ionly have to pay 10€ more for an 4870 and you should do that

I found a 4850 1GB for £70 which is about €95 and The cheapest 4870 ive seen is £125 which is about €140/150, the prices are not the same everywhere...

['Tx.Apollo]

you can buy in another land too maybe in the usa or germany some things are not so expensive but i even would buy an 4870

[iStarZy]

Well, my Father said he would give me £100 (about €140) towards the new comp, so i might even go higher than 4870 :P

[iStarZy]

Ok well soon im getting a new comp and im going to get cod4 i just want to know what i should run it on. The computers specs are as follows;

AMD Phenom X4 9650 AM2+ (4x 2.3Ghz)
4GB DDR2 800mhz (2x 2GB)
Nvidia GTS 250

So what should i run it on? Low high? what settings should be what?
Thanks.

Yeah well i don't think there will be an issue now running cod4 tbh, lots of people donating to me :)

Getting;
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition (4x 3.4GHz)
4GB DDR2 800mhz (2x 2GB)
Sapphire HD 4870 1GB

i wouldnt take a 965be because odf the socket you can only use DDR3 and thats very expensive and not better than ddr2 945BE and a 4890 or maybe a 5850

You just try to get me higher grade stuff each time...
ps. it does support ddr2....

['Tx.Apollo]

no the 945be and an other mainboard (which is requested) and other ram is cheaper than youre config and maybe you saved enough money for a 4890 or a 5850 but if you didnt saved enough money just take a 4870

[iStarZy]

Yeah i will barely have enough money for what it is now, i just want the best i can get for that money which i am, believe me if i did have more money i would buy a 5850.

['Tx.Apollo]

it was an advice and that was what you wanted
