I'm in the same boat as you... but I play proudly... when all 3 are sleeping... :P
I also got my 12-year-old son to play with me in League of Legends but now that he's better than me, ... :(
What I am curious about is for clock for clock, say A64 Socket 754 3000+ Newcastle 2 GHz vs A64 Socket 939 3200+ Venice 2 GHz, if there is any performance difference... Know of any site with actual game data?
I'd start with 133 mem divider (2:3)... I doubt you can run 166 divider (5:6) since your memory may not run so fast. But you should be able to do 133 mem divider. At 290 HTT, mem speed would be 193 MHz. Using 166 divider would force it to run at 242 MHz! I doubt your Corsair VS can go that...
Well, I sure hope your kids act to you the way you acted to your mom.
We all have weaknesses... I am very forgetful and don't have a sense for fashion and such... but I still try hard to remember the promises I made to my kids or not wear something my wife would be ashamed of... Chances are...
So gotsmack, according to what I've read from your responses, you set a "limit" on how much you can help people?! And if they pass that limit and still don't grasp whatever it is you teach/explain to them, you just go off on them?
That's not selfish... that's just sheer madness.
1) Don't...
Wow... the population of the "Smart A$$ Jerks" just doubled!
It's not about how intelligent (or rather lack of) your mom is, but rather how you treat her as a person AND your mom! Idiot...
I wasn't exactly referring to your school years... I was referring to your toddler/infant years! My mom worked as well... she actually went to college when I was in elementary school... and was a nurse when I was in high school. And when I refer to "teaching me", I don't imply anything of...
Well, to say the least, you are an ignorant smart a$$...
I was a C-sec baby... and I know few friends who had to have their babies via C-section, and it's not the easiest to recover from you dingbag! You think C-section is easier than regular birth!?!!
If all that education taught you...
If I'm correct, 9800pro has 1 DVI and 1 VGA. So you just need 1 VGA-to-DVI adapter for it. You shouldn't need any special software either. ATI's software/driver should support them naturally.
EDIT: Does the 2005fpw have a VGA input as well as DVI? If so, you don't need any adapters.
Questions...
1. Does the video stress test default to whatever you have set on or is it always on 1 pre-defined resolution?
2. How does 85 avg fps on my setup (see sig) sound? Does that seem about par? What have you guys got? My setting for the game is at 1600x1200 4xAA/8xAF.
Thanks...
7800 GTX is overkill in my opinion... my 2 cents.
Just get a PCI-E version of 6800GT. Top of the line is usually for the rich and ... well, the rich! :P 7800GTX will depreciate to at least 2/3 of its value in a year's time or so. But if you must, get 7800GT instead. 4 pipes less but still...
I don't think spending extra $100 is worth it at that speed. Extra 512 kB of L2 cache is not a HUUUGE gain. And you could easily OC that 3500+ to 4000+ speed anyhow. Either save that $100 for future upgrades or spend it on good memory.
Well, you don't need an X2 unless you do some serious computing... like gaming while downloading or encoding or such.
I'd recommend going Socket 939 route with Venice core 3500+ ($235 from Monarch).
That way you are not spending too much but leave room for upgrade in the future. Just get...
Well, I found this article from the 939 memory matrix sticky.. It's an article from Neoseeker and decent one that compares things from HTT to memory...
In the end, it seems the clock speed is the biggest factor and then HTT and then memory... Hmm...
Ok...
I got two setups that I can get my board to run at...
245x10 w/ 166 mem. divider (204 MHz mem)
280x9 w/ 133 mem. divider (187 MHz mem) <-- tried this after reading Zebo's sticky
They are almost identical in speed (2.45 vs 2.52) but I was wondering which has more impact in...
Well, I've been having issues with my Chaintech VNF3-250 and Mushkin Performance Series memory (2-3-3) as I couldn't go over 2.25 GHz w/o being unstable. But I never chagned the command timing to 2T.
After reading this thread, I decided to give that a try... and voila! I'm running stable at...
Ok... my bios boot screen text is a bit scrambled...
Should I be worried? It seems fine in Windows and it even unlocked to 16x1p,6vs just fine! So far, I'm keeping it...
