Would a 4850 be defined as a low-end or high-end graphics card?
Is a 9800GTX still high end haha?
I think it was one of the best eras for nVidia. Wait I take that back the 8xxx series cards were.
I think the 9800GTX is considered midrange.
I've got a AMD Athlon II x4 3.0GHz and a Radeon HD 5750 1GB Vapor-X... would they count as quad-core + high end video card?

5750, 4850, 9800GTX/gts 250, I have a 4770, I consider those low end by now. Those all perform similarly and are drastically worse compared to the new generations. ATI's already going onto a 6xxx series and nVidia has the gtx 480, and the new refined gtx580.

6900's aren't out yet, so the whole generation isn't complete.

All of those cards are still very capable though. Better than what most people have.
I put my vote for my desktop because it's more impressive.
i7 870 @ stock 2.93 ghz
8gb RAM
GTX 460 Cyclone 1gb
I'd call the 460 high end, wouldn't you?
I'm going to post mine because it's [i][b]SUPER AWESOME AMAZING IMPRESSIVE[/b][/i]

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 2.0GHz

HDD: 1x200GB, 1x1TB

[QUOTE=Richard Simmons;25968805]That means its [b]MID END WHOA[/b]
Seriously, the x2 5000+ is seriously bottlenecking that card. What is that a S939?[/QUOTE]
I know, this is a 5 year old rig now. And mid-end isn't an option on the poll :v:
It started out as:
AMD X2 3800+
2gb RAM
7900GT 256mb
I got the X2 5000+ for $30 off a friend, and another friend gave me his HD4650 when he upgraded to a 5770 (he is a [i]really[/i] good friend :v:). So basically I'm too poor to upgrade my PC properly, and am just making do with what I can get.
And it's an AM2.
Intel Core 2 duo E7200, 2.53 GHz
2GB DDR2 RAM
Nvidia GeForce 7600 graphics card :smug:
I plan on upping my graphics card for Christmas. I can see blown capacitors on my current one. It was second-hand when I got it 2 years ago. It's past its time.
Quad Core with mid end Gpu
It's getting kinda old.
You forgot mid-range graphics cards like my HD4830, though it could be considered lower-midrange now.
i5 750 overclocked to 4ghz
6 gig ddr3 1333mhz ram
Just sold my 5870 as I'm upgrading to one (or maybe two) 6 series cards once benchies for the 6970 are out. This means I'm currently sitting on a 9600gt, but as it's temporary I voted high-end in the poll.
AMD Phenom 2 x4 945 3Ghz and a Radeon 6870 1Gb (Gets here on Monday :D)
Intel core i7-975 x4 3.6 Ghz and ASUS ARES (HD5870 CrossFireX,true power) unlike the HD5970(underclocked HD5870 crossfireX). It's extremely pricey but its worth it as I know I wouldn't have to change any GPU for at least 6-8 years until I REALLY,REALLY couldn't run any game smoothly at low/medium settings,then it's time to change.
My way was I always go for the most powerful GPU available and hold out for several years and see how things are going on. I do not want to regret later on.

yeah man 6-8 years, and by then you'll be 15-16 so you can buy yourself a new computer!
