Hey Fraggle u do have UT2003 demo right? Did you know there's a way to turn redeemer in it right? (Teh Nukes!!!) -=Muhahaha=-

Damn i like it.....mmmmm guidedredeemerlove








Good to hear the system is working now Mikey. Hey just when i was feeling all happy with my pc i read the reviews on the Hoontech 24/96 Value and i'm feeling pretty sad now. This soundcard can do 24 bit,96 Khz audio and it's noise ratio is staggeringly low. In other words it sounds beautiful. If only i could did up a few hundred bucks for it

Oh well one day

Yeah the P4 Marchitecture (pun intended) is actually begining to shine now. AMD already have a great FPU, now they just need to increase the pipelines on the Athlon XP and bring it up to speed. Thats essentially what the Hammer is going to do but with the added benefit of on die memory controller which is going to allow the hammer to have VERY low memory latency which is good. It's also going to be 64bit capable which should be impressive but able to run at 32bit in full speed compared to Intels Itanium which is 64 bit but can run 32bit in very slow emulation mode which isn't good for us gamers at all.

should be interesting to see what happens. but AMD need to pull some moves and fast to keep their customers loyal and happy

No, I have the beta release - installed it's about 2.7gb!!! How good is this game? I've got a GF2-Ti on a XP1600 o/c 2200 so I can't play it at very high resolutions, but it stills looks incredible. I mean, ffs, you can play in natural environments - how cool is that!!! And when you use that scoped weapon the effects look as though they've come straight out of a movie. My mate has an GF4-4600 and it still runs a little slow in places!

hehe
you guys clearly have enormous penises

much bigger than my

Athlon 1800xp+
256MB DDR-RAM

SB Live 5.1

me want XP 2200+

or if i had money to give out id get the P4 Xeon 2.8 or even the new 3Ghz! lol

So who else here has spent a whole day of their life unlocking their XP processor? It was an absolute beeeeaaaaaaatttcchhh, that's all I can say about it. But definitely worth it. I only have PC133 ram, so my system died at 147mhz. Now I can keep the ram nice and cool and just up the multiplier. Plus I got a hacked bios which means I can up the voltage too.

Xp2000+ [email protected]
512MB DDR 2/2/6
Geforce3 Ti200 128MB @240/480 and hacked into a Nvidia Quadro DCC
Asus A7V266
60GB ATA100 HDD
15GB ATA66 HDD
SB Live!
Intel Pro 100 Management NIC

I haven't bothered unlocking my XP as there's no need to right now. I just want to up the FSB anyways, thats where the XP's need the boost anyways, not pure clockspeed alone. They're already held back by the bus anyways.

It's pretty easy to turn a Geforce into a Quadro now as all you need is the software to basically run a bootstrap proggie before the nvidia display drivers initialize, that fools the drivers into believing you have a $2000 Quadro instead of $400 Geforce teh heh.

It's not gonna do sweet FA if you don't use your computer for 3D animation programs like MAYA and 3DS MAX as the Quadro is basically a fast Geforce with drivers that are heavily optimised for 3D Programs (not games).

What Geforce card do you have anyways?


Posted by escee on Sep-22-2002 06:40:

ive got a shitty 2 year old geforce 2.....MX!
It suites the rest of my box too, p2 866, 256mb of ram and to top it off a fucked power supply (i have to run it with the case off or it overheats the whole box, summer is going to be fun).

I never touch any 3d modelling, or animation programs, i just wondering what the difference was.
