You'll get Crysis on a mixture of high and ultra with 1280x1024 screen res.

I know Intel are producing the best chips at the moment, but with that comes a large price tag compared to AMD. And I wasn't attacking you for it, I'm sorry if it came across that way but that's the way I took your previous quote. And I never called you a fanboy :p So yea, sorry if it came across in a bad way.

That's a standard GTX, the one you were looking at was the GTX+. The GTX+ has the 55nm core as opposed to the 65nm core of the standard GTX. It also has faster GPU, memory and shader clock speeds. But like I said, it's your choice, I'm merely offering some advice, not telling you what to get like some people

I'm going to be like a pro at it [/DREAM]

*drools* *drools some more* *closes mouth* :D can I have it yet?, can I have it yet?, can I have it yet?, can I have it yet?, can I have it yet? Finally a racing simulation game that looks half decent on the xbox, can't wait for the demo if their is one.

19 ay? you're getting old. Oh yea, happy birthday, have a good one :)

Right, what exactly is wrong with that PC? It's better than my PC, newer CPU and graphics card. I can run Crysis at 1920x1080 with half of the settings on high and half on ultra. If you look at what he wants, you'll see that it is more than enough. Yet you insist on trying to get him to spend more money than he has said he can spend and to get a computer with a higher spec than he needs. He can't use Hybrid power with the 9800GTX+? and with that motherboard? Explain please as I have the same graphics card and a higher spec motherboard. The motherboard I suggested and the one that he carried on with is hybrid power enabled. I can use hybrid power with a very similar setup, infact I'm using it right now. We all know that you love Intel and always suggest it in threads like this, no matter if it's better or not. Also with the 9800GTX+, if you turn it off, which can be done in seconds from your desktop as long as you're not running 3D applications, it cuts down on unwanted heat in your case, it uses less power, it will last longer and it cuts the noise down but you won't notice this as it is a very quiet card, even when gaming. Criticising people for trying to help and giving suitable advice, what is your problem? EDIT: Oh and I have my PC which is running a standard 9800GTX and my dads PC right next to mine with a 4850, and I can assure you I have about a 15% performance advantage over my dads PC. I'll even put the 4850 in my PC and run benchmarks on both cards if you really want.

Erm, it would have to be Nige, all he does is talk about America j/k nigel

You can owe it me then :P

Here you go ducky, all the specs for the motherboard and yes it has HDMI http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=149&l3=676&l4=0&model=2260&modelmenu=1

It was another way of saying yes ;)

You can do if you want, or I could always spam them back :D j/k

You must watch these, MINE! Battlefield 2 - MINE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvlRQ90c9Bk Battlefield 2 - MINE 2 (1/3) Battlefield 2 - MINE 2 (2/3) Battlefield 2 - MINE 2 (3/3) Watch All 4 of them, they are great

I've been here since the start but my other account broke and it says I've only been here a year. :( Lies I tell ya, lies!

Yea sure, here CPU PSU DVD Drive HDD Graphics Card Motherboard RAM Enjoy :)

For RAM I recommend these http://www.ebuyer.com/product/119279 I have 4GB of it and I can't fault it, I looked on websites that review them and they always came out on top against other equivalent RAM. Motherboard, ASUS, you can't beat them For the CPU, looked at the AMD Phenom 9950 Black Edition? It's their top end chip and it's around £140. Don't really bother with Intel so I can't help you there. And pssst, the processor and CPU are the same thing ;)

If you go for the 9800GTX you get a small cable to connect it to the motherboard so you can get sound through it. All you need is a DVI to HDMI adapter IIRC Also on the Nvidia G9x chips you can get Ageia PhysX. This takes all of the physics calculations from the CPU and runs them on the GPU. This frees up processing power for your CPU and has no noticeable impact on graphics performance. The AMD 6000+ X2 3.1Ghz is also cheaper at http://www.scan.co.uk

[ATTACH]6786[/ATTACH] Just thought I'd throw this idea out there for you, and it even leaves you with almost £60 to choose a case. I have 4GB of that RAM and it is fantastic, very fast and overclocks very well, got my timings down to 4-3-4-10 at DDR2 800Mhz. 9800GTX + It's a stock version of my graphics card with higher clock speeds and then it's been overclocked more. With that motherboard you can have Hybrid SLI, which is where your graphics card gets turned off and it uses the onboard graphics when you're not on games. It saves power, it's quieter and it reduces the heat in your case. The motherboard also supports AM3 chips and DDR2 1066Mhz RAM CPU, I have the old 6000+ X" and can't fault it, overclocks well and runs very cool. It'll handle anything you throw at it. Oh and you still get your cathode kit.

Have you got a disk with drivers on it for your computer? It sounds like you have the correct drivers installed, or none at all for the ethernet.

And you were all singing and dancing about this game, makes me glad I have both PC and console. And to R* designing the game so that it can't be run on max settings on modern top end machines is just a joke, whoever thought of that needs shooting.

Damn I wish i had TDU on the PC, keep up the good work

You should infract yourself for breaking peoples computers like me :cheeky:

Woop woop, well done *pats on back* Don't bite me :oook:
