Quake 4 Goes Gold... Screenshots inside

depends what kind of ddr ram he has. You should buy a non amd processor. Get a pci express setup with nvidia and then get a 6800. But for the majority quake 4 is hard to run on even medium.

LOL. I bought a 9600xt that caused me a bunch of problems so I had to take it back out. Im going with a 6800GT O.C. 256. I know that I would get more with an X800 Pro but the Catalyst drivers fucked with my whole system.

BTW I found specs for Q4

Actually the Nvidia 7800 series right now is the cream of the crop as far as video cards, but yes amd processors are still better than intel for gaming.

Got it reserved to come with my 360, definitely looks like it's gonna be a great game.

Reviews are merely for those that don't understand computer specs. Try playing half life 2 with the minimum requirements and see how high you can turn up your settings. You can't do much with that overpriced "dell" you bought for 1500 from 1 year ago.
