CPU and GPU upgrade on Acer Aspire 6930G

[dsh4rk]

The 4670 won't work, you need an MXM 2.1 type II, thats an MXM 3.0a card.

And the X9100 isn't worth the money, T9600's seem really cheap and only 266mhz slower (huge upgrade from your T6400 - cache - fsb)

Is your 9600M GT ddr2 or ddr3? (check using gpuz), the 9600m gt ddr3 is the best available option since finding a 4670 is just impossible

Yes i like the T9600 and it will be a nice price i think...

My nvidia is 1gb DDR2... With the T9600 i willl play COD: Black Ops with nice FPS or i need a new Graphic Card?

I have no idea about COD sorry, you'll have to wait untill someone else answers. I was only trying to prevent you from spending unneeded money!

But Core 2 Extreme isnt much better then Core 2 Duo are you sure that T9600 is better then X9100?

And think about it hmm the system requirements of COD: Black Ops :

- OS: Windows Vista/XP/7
- Processor: Intel Core2 Duo E6600 or AMD Phenom X3 8750 or better
- Memory: 2GB
- HDD: 12GB
- Video: Shader 3.0 or better 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT/ATI Radeon X1950Pro or better
- Sound: DirectX 9.0c-compatible
- DirectX: 9.0c

If you have that much money to spend on a CPU, sell your machine, get a 16F2 barebone and then outfit it.

[dsh4rk]

How much is a 16F2 barabone it is like a laptop but i can change the hardware like a desktop pc??

EDIT: i dont want to spend so much like 800$ i just want less then 500$. I just want to know whats the ideal CPU and GPU for my 6930G to Play Call Of Duty Black Ops nicely!

Heres the answer the problem is my CPU the video is a PC with a NVIDIA 9600M GT and a Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor Q8400:

Call of Duty Black Ops Gameplay Maxed out on ZOGIS 9600GT [HD] - YouTube

so i want a CPU like this or better for my 6930G the T9600 is better then this? or is better the X9100?

Edit : i failed he have 9600GT 512MB DDR3, so i think ill buy a Core 2 Duo T9600 and Nvidia 9600GT 512MB DDR3 is it a good choice and will it work in 6930G??

Edit 2: i think 6930G just support MXM II so the last model MXM II is this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nvidia-Gefor...ht_2234wt_1172, i think, im sure??

9600GT is not the same as the 9600M GT.

Totally different. 9600GT is MUCH stronger.

9600GT = 64 Shaders, 16 Rops, 256bit GDDR3 all @ 650/1625/900
9600M GT = 32 Shaders, 8 Rops, 128bit DDR3 all @ 500/1250/800

As you can see the 9600GT is over twice as powerful as the 9600M GT.

[dsh4rk]

Whats the best MXM II for 6930G?? 9600GT DDR3 is MXM II??

ATI HD4570 is better then NVIDIA 9600M GT??

What should i buy to upgrade my 6930G the CPU and the GPU??

the system requirements of COD: Black Ops :
- Processor: Intel Core2 Duo E6600 or AMD Phenom X3 8750 or better

Your current cpu is a 2ghz c2d with 2mb cache, the e6600 is a 2.4ghz c2d with 4mb cache, i suggest you get a T9600 which is an 2.8ghz 6mb cache cpu + newer revision.

The x9100 is 266 mhz faster then a t9600 but €200 more expensive, an unreasonable upgrade!

- Video: Shader 3.0 or better 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT/ATI Radeon X1950Pro or better

The 9600M GT DDR2 shouldn't be that far off from a geforce 8600gt (desktop card!). Could try ordering an T9600 and if it does not provide the performance upgrade you want you can get a 9600M DDR3 to get 20-30% additional performance!


An no the 4570 isn't better
