Maybe you could hit 125 fps on low settings—but what kind of GPU, motherboard, and PSU are we actually talking about here?

This build is basically entirely new—except for the case and the HDD.

Asrock M3A UCC — features AMD 480 x CrossFire, an AMD SB600 chipset, standard ATX form factor, and a 1000 FSB.
Just one AMD Athlon ii X2 255—AM3 socket, boxed, 2MB cache, 65W. That's it.
1 x DDR3 2GB Kingmax stick, 1333MHz, CL9, FLFE85F-B8EE9
1 x Sapphire HD 5670, 512MB GDDR5 128bit, DL-DVI-I+HDMI+DP, PCIX 16x
One Chicony HPD4802RWR2 power supply—ATX 2.2, 12cm fan, 430W.

$522

Thanks. 🙂

Look, I know the graphics are pretty rough—but hey, might as well ask. 🙂

I was getting fps 125, but now I'm stuck at 20.

Oh, I almost forgot to ask—with these specs, am I looking at 125 fps?

So, roughly how much would I need to drop in to hit a 125 lock? 🙂 I mean, if I just crank everything down to low settings.

Oh, and if you happen to know, what kind of fps 125 could I actually expect out of this laptop?
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8400 @ 2.26GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.3GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM
Hard Drive: 319 GB
Video Card: Mobile Intel ( R ) 4 Series express chipset Family

Hey, so I'm looking for the cheapest possible GPU to lock my Call of Duty 2 at either fps 125 or 250—if anyone could give me both options, that'd be great.

So, I'm running an Intel Celeron 2.6 GHz—and yeah, I've only got about 768 MB of RAM or something like that. 🙂
