Hi, I have an Intel core I5 - 2500 CPU with integrated HD2000 graphics. I should have just waited a few days for the store to restock the 2500K CPU with HD3000 graphics to avoid my current problem. I am not much of a gamer (a little NFS or COD occasionally), my computer is mainly used for watching 1080p video (movies etc.). I've noticed in VLC that I don't get a great frame-rate on some 1080p videos. I'm thinking a modestly priced discrete graphics card will solve my problem. Not looking to spend any more than $200 on this, as I won't be gaming much. The HD2000 is just good enough for 1600x1050 in both COD and NFS, with good frame-rates, but struggles with 1900x1080. Which makes me think the HD3000 would have been just what I need (and only 5 bucks more, grr). I already have the HD2000 overclocked as far as it will go, I get 6.3 in windows experience (gaming graphics). Just need a little more juice for highest quality 1080p videos. Tips? Suggestions? Thanks.
