skylineR390: It amuses me how people can be so stupid.
Sir: In what planet an overcloked graphic card provides better FPS when there is a CPU bottleneck.
I said overcloking my 9800gt a few MHz is the difference between a playable game at high settings and a poor slide show. Do you really believe that if my CPU was severely limiting performance, overcloking my graphic card would have such a dramatic effect ?
Moreover, do You really believe a 9800gt, which is barely over the minimum req, would be able to render this game at high settings with acceptable speed if , on top of having an architectural disadvantage, it had to sit and wait for an overworked CPU to deliver the information to render on the screen ?
I've chosen to ignore your question twice, for obvious reasons.

So, I'm not sure I'm the stupid one.
