I am creating this thread in a hope that it will reduce threads and coincidentally reduce people's qualms and worries over their spec.
The purpose of this is a 'one answer suits all' kind of thing, I want this one thread to help in answering many questions and to prevent 10 identical threads popping up.
The best thing to do if you are unsure of whether or not you need X amount of ghz or X processor is to go onto Youtube and type in the name of your graphics card.
EVERYBODY will include the specifications of their PC on their videos/videos description/Youtube channel
You are looking for gameplay videos of people using your graphics card.
What people say on here is great and reliable, as are benchmark tests but wouldn't you like to SEE for yourself?
Bear in mind that those videos are recorded using FRAPS which result in lower FPS.
By doing this you can determine for yourself whether or not you need all that power, you can search by game too! If you have a favourite game in mind which you want to play just search for it and see the peformance!
