Hello, below is a comparison of my computer and my friends computer: Friend: Intel Q6600 (2.4Ghz) 2GB 600mhz ram Nvidia 8600GT Me: AMD 64x2 4800 (2.5Ghz) 3gb 600mhz ram Nvidia 8500GT My problem is i can only play call of duty 4 on minimal settings whilst my friend can play on maximum. Our systems are so very similar my question is how can there be such a big difference in performance? Thanks in advance
He has more processing cores that makes a difference and it's also down to what the system bus is set and and also wether yours and his ram are dual channel configuration. also if he has a raid 0.
Your CPU retails for about $50, his for about $200... for a CPU a quarter the price, you're lucky to get similar performance. Still, the big kicker is the video card. His has more than twice the throughput of yours. Comparison of Nvidia graphics processing units - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
