erm i think u will find a difference between 2x and 4xagp when u have a powerful card my score without overclocking is 8700 odd it doesnt really make a difference if i overclock my CPU as its powerful enough to drain every bit of perfromance from my card anyway ....... LOL@ TRIS we shall see

YAY!!!

i dont see whats wrong with bbq'in a dead card in order to get the gfx chip off it to make a keyring i would do the same if i had to.. i would aslso get "EL1TE" engraved on my xp chip if it died and make that a key ring aswell:D

dont supose you own a radeon? if u do there is an ati overflow fix

erm that alienware looks remarkably like a mid tower cheiftec i have a cheiftec dragon full tower server case 27inch tall **** solid case with superb features u cant go wrong with one of these

it could be your psu. can we have your full system specs and tell us if u have added any hardware recently plz also if u could tell us what your 5v vaultage is at underfull load using motherboard monitor or something similar.

i would be going for the new epox http://www.hardwarepub.com/reviews/motherb...ards/epoxkt333/

wel if u think about it.its only part of a chicken u do realise what go in sausages? but i bet u still eat them

lmao thats nasty! :assshake

i love my epox 8kha+ ddr but u might want to get a board based on the upcoming kt333 chipset and i would definetly get ddr ram dont bother with sdram!

<=- amd xp 1800 woot i own u sedative

the official drivers suck go with the beta 6025 or 6032 gets me almost 15fps more in the nature test on 3dmark2001

the offical drivers suck! i prefer the 6025 & 6032 beta drivers gave me like 1000 extra points in 3dmark

cheeky tw*t i own you:D :blueteam

http://www.reactorcritical.com/#l1041 not out yet but u might aswell wait till it is or till hercules release there version as the standard ati one doesnt have ram sinks and the memory gets pretty hot + the gigabyte has hardware monitoring

Get a radeon and be leet like me check this leet looking card GIGABYTE MAYA AP64D-H (RADEON 8500 PRO) i wish i would have waited now instead of getting normal ati version [img:446053d03c]http://www.reactorcritical.com/news/february/gbt_r8500pro_board_rc.jpg[/img:446053d03c]

**** that must suck unless your not a gamer? i just need a better monitor so i can go above 1280x1024 res kinda sucks knowing my system could easily cope above the 1280x1024 and not being able to

here is a nice close up of a Nazi 1024x768 resolution all settings maxed smooth vision x6 aniostropic filtering x16 Screenshot

yea class and myth rips are okay if u just want to test a game to see if u like it b4 downloading the full cd version. i say test because alot of rips dont work to good and can often crash alot although most u try should be fine

u will still need no cd patches they are there for a reason.if u dont want to use no cd patches i suggest u try downloading the clonecd releases of games instead of the popular bin releases Fairlight and Deviance do i think its dino that release the clonecd versions

no man u dont want to use iso buster ! u should download "daemon tools" from gamecopyworld.com it lets u mount a cd image as a virtual drive

i was only on easy yea i tried one of the blood patchs from http://www.mohcenter.com looks pretty good u should try it if u havent already

i cheated on the mission where u get the assault rifle than again on the last level

lol people have been selling motorcity online cars on ebay aswell
