I currently play Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour, if I bought one of the new swanky Intel Powermac's, would this game and others suffer a hit? Or will the new Intel Powermacs & Vid Cards be so fast I won't notice a difference?

I currently have a Powermac G5 Dual 2.5Ghz w/ 9600XT RAM & 2gb of RAM.

I have a new MBP 17" maxed out and under Rosetta rollercoaster tycoon ran ok to reaaaaly slow at times, to the point that I don't play it any more. I am just one person though so hopefully someone will come back with a tweak or suggestion specific to your games :)

I did a search on the forum re: Command&Conquer, and the general consensus was pretty bad. But I wonder how much of a difference will a good graphics card and faster CPU's make?...

that's depressing. I guess I'll wait on buying it :( :( :( It's my favorite game ever :p
