Hm, actually it is kinda possible to overclock it, but Will didn't mentioned that.
But I had, 1GB dedicated memory for CPU graphics, running on default clock rate 3.3 GHz.
As you can see from that video, it can barely run Play4free on High graphics, Full HD resolution.

I may try it again, with my overclocked CPU 4.3 GHz! and some graphics frequency adjustments.

Overclocked CPU graphics from 1.1 Ghz up to 1.6 Ghz, can run Play4free up to 60 fps in not full screen mode, and 25 fps in full screen mode, so there is 7 Fps difference, still not good enough.

but it makes some difference, sometimes 7 fps can make a game be reasonably playable compared to eye-wateringly horrendous

1900 Mhz should make 30 fps, but increases system instability

So if you know what you're doing then everything should be fine.
You OC it too much you'll wreck your system :S

Oh and due to stock and stuff + my budget being a bit more realistic now, here is a new setup. Slightly modified.

The free game was Sniper Elite V2, and thank you Will Very Happy
That's really very reassuring. If it runs GTA V, I will be a very happy person.
Now to actually try and get it LOL

http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/598?vs=508
670 vs 7970 normal

The Crossfire 7970 and the GHz will trounce the 670.
The next one up is a 680 which is another 70/80 quid so out of the two, the 7970 is the better choice.
here's the GHz edition http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/598?vs=618

680 vs 7970 GHz http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/555?vs=618
2 680s vs 2 7970s http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/585?vs=588

The only nvidia GFX card that beats the 7970 is the 690, and even that has a contender now from AMD.
http://www.scan.co.uk/products/6gb-scanfx-radeon-hd-7990-5500mhz-gddr5-28nm-gpu-900mhz-4096-cores-dl-dvi-i-dvi-d-hdmi-2x-mini-displ

Anyway, the 670 is gonna be better than anything I'll ever get so you are very lucky!
Merry Christmas to you Razz

PhysX is on like 12 games, and can be done by getting a cheap 2nd Nvidia GPU. AMD has its own veraion of CUDA

I'm getting 7970 GHz CF probably Ninja :p

Wait, you're Crossfiring the 7970 GHz edition? You sure are rich Death Razz
You could run 2x GTX 690s in SLI xD (If you're that rich)
