Hello all, I am back after many years away from EQ2. I currently have a Geforce Gtx 970 card in my pc with around 8gb of system ram and decent CPU. I was looking into getting a new card from Amazon. Geforce GTX 1660 with 8gb ram https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P76G42...olid=35UWAIXSR6STU&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it It seems this would be a good upgrade and help me have smoother performance on higher settings in game. What does everyone else think?
I dont think there is a huge DirectX 9.0c performance difference between the GTX970 => GTX1660 The new card will idle with much less powerconsumption But yes you will see a performace boost for 25% i guess by much less noise
One thing I never considered is overclocking. The pc came stock from the company I got it from with a watercooled PC. So I bet it would handle the temps fine.
watercooled.. nice CPU should be overclockable to 4GHz (+speedstep) without any problems.. EQ2 does not use the full CPU power
Yeah got it as a gaming pc a couple years ago, just skimped a bit on the graphics card at the time. Going to remedy that a bit without breaking the bank . Thanks for your input.
