hi,
as most people know, cpus can limit the overall performance of a video card. i was wondering what the limiting factor is for a Ti200.

i know that to get the best Performance that a GF2 MX can give u need a cpu over 600. and for GTS over 800. but what is it for a Ti200?

i currently have a Duron 1GHZ.

My old Tbird 1GHz wasn't fast enough. I upped it to 1.1 and 1.2GHz and the benchmarks still kept getting better, so for sure my Ti200 wasn't the limiting factor. Now I have an XP2000+ running at 1.7GHz. Obviously my previous benchmark scores were crushed, but I havne't had a chance to o/c again and see which cpu/gpu is slower.

I'm also interested, Considering I might get this card, But i'm running at a 1.13 Ghz Athlon (not OCed... yet, hope to hit at least 1.3Ghz when i do though).

I think that the Ti200 Probally limits out at 1.5 Ghz. Don't take my word, but its just a realistic estimate.
