you coonrod, you told me to get the 650mhz b/c the $30 differeance in price was pointless

[Kuros]

Your cpu will not run at 800 mhz…if you really want to know why i can tell you the math behind it…

[Kuros]

I thought I might post this, I’m particularly proud. This is the stress test on CS:S that they let you run.

[Phonetically Phamous (dice]

you make me sick

[Falcon]

dang! okay, okay, just to try to come close I’m a gonna make a user on this rig and turn off everything I don’t need (hp drivers take a shatload of cpu time and ram) and I’m gonna try to challenge that…

 

no, wait, nevermind, you have the cs:s test. just to see, I’ll still try that other user crap… anywho, i got this:

[Kuros]

Who else wishes to challenge the pwnasaur?

[gxti]

Of course, framerate varies by settings. I get 115, but I’ve got everything balls-to-the-wall.

[Adam Faulkner]

well .. you dont want me to try! .. maybe 50?

 

 

ill get 1000 in 1.6

Stop attaching bitmap files, you lazy *edited*s. You’re wasting space, and firefox on linux can’t even display them.

 

EDIT: *edited* it, bmp files aren’t allowed as attachment files anymore. Learn to use jpg/png, plox!

[Pitagot]

stoping geting mad cuz you can’t open it figure out how to open and stop *edited*ing. lol

 

here you happy now

[gxti]

I know how to use them. But really, are your screenshots important enough that i should have to download them and open an image editor just to look at a 2mb file of some text on a screen? </rant>

[stevorob]

I get 122 with 1280×1024 4x AA and 16x ASF. Everything else on high.

 

I’m on an ATI X850XT @ 615core/633mem

[gxti]

Similar settings, same framerate, 7900GT. My card, however, does not come with AIDS, but with win! Nvidia FTW.

[stevorob]

Never was a fan of nvidia… always had issues with mine. Of the ATI cards I have, none of them have given me any problems.

 

To each his own. I’m not bashing nvidia… just not for me

[Falcon]

eh, I dig nvidia for their general linux compatibility… ATI runs a good market on windows cards though, for directx laden apps

[Adam Faulkner]

ATI CCS is SO BAD, watches as it tears away at my ram. The dam program needs more ram that what is stored on the card and the functionality is limited. I still cant find vertical sync and OpenGL setting in the control center. Nvidia on the other hand has a very scaled down version that works perfectly inside windows display properties.

 

Now .. point proven.

[JazzmanSA80]

GeForce 7600 GT OC ftw!

[Kuros]

Actually, Geforce 7950 gt ko ftw…since i beat you by over 40 fps…

[JazzmanSA80]

But the 7600 cost me a hundred bucks! Seeing as I’m a poor college student, one must weigh all the factors. I know you beat me in fps, but I <3 my 7600

 

172.52-157.87>40?

 

 

FTW!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’ll go ahead and apologize now….

[gxti]

Blargh! *edited* your leetness…

[Phonetically Phamous (dice]

7600 FTW

 

love the cost to performance… cant be beat

[JazzmanSA80]

Boo-yah! Plus it’s clearly has the most leet performance.

[Kuros]

I am humbled.

[JazzmanSA80]

In all seriousness, I wish I could afford a system like yours, but I did pretty good on an $800 budget. NEW EGG FTW. Plus I’m an Intel dude, and that cost me some extra.

 

I concede to your superiority, Kuros- even if your rig still needs a dash of 1337
