AionSource.com - View Single Post - Planning a video upgrade?..You might want to wait

Thanks for the feedback,

The card has been returned and I eagerly await the new architecture to be tested against each other.

I am somewhat worried that upgrading to this vastly superior technology will cause a "chokepoint" to form somewhere in my system. Is there a website with information on identifying chokepoints that you know of? I would like to try and simulate the new architecture (or at least the current best) to determine that I won't need new processors or motherboards for the video card to be happy.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I just know that sometimes upgrading one piece can lead to forced upgrades of other things to get that one piece to work properly >.<
