I dont want to sound like i'm creating a job for someone to do but my suggestion is for a sticky in the New Build forum addressing the masses of post asking "how's these components look for my new build?"
Most people are posting the specs of near perfect machines. Most are building machines for themselves so generally know what they want.
I think the only ones that need individual attention (if you like) are the people asking what "upgrades are worth buying for my 10 year old P3" etc
I dont know exactly how the thread could be written but what im thinking is something covering each component with a general answer depending on the type of pc they want.
I know im getting a bit specific now but an index of games sorted by published system requirements. And a general list of graphics cards.
Grade 1 = best available
Grade 3 = budget
Grade D = "display" only.
"If you wanna play the most demanding of games get a grade 1 card"
"Newegg.com8700prOgeIL$45.87YoutubeHDMI - Retail"
.... the link doesnt work!
Obviously, it would have to be updated. Probably not as often as people would like either.
To me a graphics that scores 10000 is the same as a graphics card that scores 10500 or even 11000. The length of the internal cables and temperature of the owners left leg sat next to the pc could make a shaky to begin score sway 10%. imo :) So who cares wether the Nividia Jacobean250pro is better than the Jacobean300s ? I suppose people do. Either way your looking at 1 frame per 2 second difference. Assuming they are using the same motherboard!.
Sorry, put this in the Warfare Rant forum if you see fit :)
I think you will proabably see what im getting at.
