Hi guys, longtime no chat! :$
Anyhow, I know when I started MW that ATI cards were much quicker at it than Nvidia (can't remember why now, lol). That's why I switched my HD 4830 from F@H to MW (which I run sporadically, ambient temps allowing).
Recently I was given an Nvidia GTX 260 core 216 after fixing a mates car, I know it's about as old as my 4830 but looking at various gaming benchmarks it's about 30-50% faster . For now I fitted it into my 2nd rig to replace the aging X1950 XT, but I was wondering about swapping it back at some point.
Is ATI still much faster at MW than Nvidia? Or in this case will the 260s greater horsepower overcome that? Btw my 2nd rig is not on 24/7, only my main rig is.
While we at it, any big news in MW lately?
