I tried different rails. It is a 450 watt Enermax psu. I have a friend running two 6800 ultras in sli with the same psu. I thought 7800 gtx's consumed half the power 6800's did. All the 3dmarks run flawlessly as well. Except for 2000, which will not run. I don't get it. I tried Medal of Honor...
I just installed an Albatron K8SLI motherboard, and 2 Leadtek 7800 GTX's. I formatted and installed Win XP Pro, installed all the latest drivers. Here are some system specs:
Albatron K8SLI
Athlon 4400+
1GB Kingston HyperX pc3200
2 Leadtek 7800GTX Forceware 78.01 driver
AC 97 integrated...
I don't understand why you would say any of the things you just said. I think the only thing you said that was correct was that "the eye candy was nice.", other than that, I don't know where you are coming from.
I had an FX-55 in my system, upgraded that to a 4400+, and my system is much smoother. I can't tell a difference in my games either. I don't mess with 3Dmark anymore, so I couldn't tell you the difference in those scores.
To fix the problem you must start the game, then go into the task manager, right click the GTA:SA process, set affinity, and uncheck one of the cpu's. Works like a charm!
First, I'll tell you about the problem. Imagine normal gameplay speed, and then multiply that speed by 6. That is how fast my gameplay is. The story movies before each mission, forget about watching them. Blink, and they are over. It really sucks. This all started when I put the Athlon X2 CPU...
Wrong. Do some research.
Doom 3 showed a 1 FPS increase, but that's not noticeable.
However, I have read that 2gb does help a little with EQ2, and BF2.
I remember there were a couple of guys saying the game sucked before it was released for pc. I said I couldn't comment because I hadn't played the game. Well, I've been playing for a week now, pretty hardcore. I must say that I totally disagree with them. This game is awesome!
