Not too bad! I agree with Speedbump though that AMD is the leader for high performance gaming... next time I buy a PC that's what I'm getting.

Hey ATC Crazy, your Monitor...you sure it isn't a 1907FP? The base looks different than the 1905FP. Yours looks like the newer ones. Mine is a bit older.

[El'Capitan]

Gotta be careful who ya call out.....You just might be on the losing end of.....BOOM!!! HeadShot!!!........a M4!!

Also....there IS a big difference between playing on a FAST PC, and a not so fast one.

Yours does well, I'm sure, but have you ever TRIED playin CS:S on a less than stellar rig? While my main PC was down, (waitin on the NEW 7900GTX) I had to pull out a spare...P4 2.8, 512ram,80gigHD, GeForce3.....and I couldn't hit squat on a regular basis. It was running 60FPS here and there, but without being able to bump up the settings....things just flat out look bad. No detail in the game makes a big difference. Try it one time. Go in and lower all the detail settings, lower the resolution to say.....800x600 and then go play. You'll be suprised how much harder things are. My PC runs 125FPS all day long....EVERYTHING maxed @ 12x10 Rez. Things are SMOOTH as a baby's ARSE.

[El'Capitan]

lol, yeah, well have to scrim some time. lol. And i used to play source at a whopping 30fps before. great fun but you get used to it; and if i ever needed an advantage id just set my rates lower so it would be hard for ppl to hit me. not legal in cal but who cares.

[ATC crazy]

SpeedBump: The model number is E196FPI (I think...everything was written in chinese )

[xd 200x]

what ever you do dont buy an ati card they are crap. ati is the devil. the only reason that people think they are great is bacause they own 3dmark, which is crap in my opinion but any way

I still have a pentium 133 with only 512 mb and a 5 gig hd and I bet I can beat all you guys with the keyboard in the tub and a ham or pb-and-j sandwich stuck in the a: drive/mail slot/mini vcr or whatever you can fit in there.

Hey now...I was there once too.

My old computer wouldnt even play the most basic games for Win95-98

I think it was only 8?? mhz AMD, 256mb RAM, and a 8gb HD

[Dammit!]

I haven't been into gaming since I lost my old Quake 3 promode server. I used to set the gauntlet to 1000x damage just to piss people off. "wtf i had 200 armor and the mega!!!" hehe...

[3 weelin geezer]

I still have that old thing laying around. Actually it was a 133 but I upgraded the processor with a 233 for the paltry sum of around $700 back then I think. The 133 had a glitch that caused duke nukem to be very noisy when the rocket is flying towards the radiation sign in the splash screen. It was like static only it was at around 1000 Hz. Very annoying. I miss that old 14.400 modem/sound card/cdrom controller it had even though it was very problematic and sometimes it didn't want to 'see' the cd rom drive. One day it just shorted out and stunk up the room with that leaky capacitor smell. EEEWWW!! I wonder what kind of 'treasures' I may find on the hard drive. Can't remember what it contains besides Road Rash save games.
