Hi!

I want to buy a new hardware to my PC, but I don't know what is better? +1GB 800 Mhz RAM or HD5750 GPU? I have 160-250 FPS in CoD4. I tried many of FPS cfg, but it couldn't help me. I have already overclocked my GPU but I can't get mutch better FPS. I don't have mutch money. My motherboard is an AsRock N68-S DDR2-RAM Supported hardware. I don't know what is the better... +1GB RAM or HD5750 GPU??

My pc:
AsRock N68-S
GIGABYTE GeForce 9500 GT 512 MB (Overclocked)
3 GB Kingston 800 Mhz DDR2 RAM
AMD Athlon x2 245 @ 2.9 Ghz

Get the new Vid Card. The Ram would just help load maps faster and you already have 3 gigs of it. If you're using a 32 bit OS, that extra stick of ram will just go to waste as 32 bit systems can't detect but a little over 3gb. So get you a newer vid card and that should help. I think the FPS you are getting now though is plenty.

So the RAM don't influence the FPS and the HITREG just the speed of the map loading... hmm ok! Thanx your help!

Well, map load speeds are the biggest thing I've noticed when adding more Ram. When it comes to CoD4, you have more than enough RAM, so adding more may only disappoint you when you don't notice much of an improvement. On the GPU side of things, I used to have an 8800GT OverClocked and then switched to a GTX 260. I could easily tell a difference in performance right away. To give you some reference, I believe the geforce 250 is a shined up version of a geforce 9800. The geforce 260 used the same tech as the higher end 200 series cards. I almost got a geforce 250 until I read up on it a bit. So make sure you browse the specs of different cards so you'll understand what you're getting. I can't tell you much about the newer cards other than I can't afford them so I haven't done any research on them.

If you're on a tight budget like me, around $200 is all I can usually spend on a single upgrade. For that money, I'm sure you could find a 450 or 460 nvidia card. ATI will have some decent selections for that price aswell but I don't follow them much. I think it's safe to say that your new card may require two "6-pin" power connections so make sure your power supply can handle the demand of your new card.

If you find a card that will work with your PSU, you'll find out later that your CPU will be the component holding you down. then you'll be looking for a new CPU/Mobo. It's a never ending cycle.

Good luck with your upgrade. I'm confident that you'll be much happier with a GPU upgrade over a stick of ram. Hopefully I didn't confuse you on any of the rambling I was doing above. The colored text is about the most useful.

Thanx to spend your time to give a correct answer to my question. It was realy usefull. I choice the GPU and yeah... It was a good choice. My game is smoother and mutch better now. Thanks your help again!

Good luck!

Cool, Glad to help. Always nice to see people come back letting everyone know if the tip was useful. Happy Gaming!

And whitch hardware increase the FPS? GPU or RAM? What is your opinion? CoD4 is a verry difficult game to understand how can you get the best fps and visible perhaps with good fps

It depends on what's bottlenecking your system. In this case your GPU is not that powerful, that's what you should upgrade.
