Wait a year, and see if their hype holds up. As you don't have any real world benchmarks to back up your claims of how great these systems are. It's not like everyone has one sitting in their living room right now. You can't make your decision on marketing hype, as you may be truly...

yea, but on hardocp on the news there was a direct link to this thread. So you should be emailing steve if this thread bothers you so much.

ROFL not a desperate attempt, they are the ones making the GPU for the PS3 :-D, I cant wait to see what they got in store for the next refresh of video cards for the PC

I highly doubt that cheap, but we can pray. Just too much loss(im assuming), I think this will be the year, the consoles almost rival the cost of a PC(700-800), combined with, I wonder how long it will take someone to turn one of these consoles into a fully customizable PC. Because shit if...

Im not following, as your telling me it costs an arm and a leg to put the core onto some pcb board? How does that justify the such hike in price? Its not like pcb is super expensive.

hmm were still here. thats just called rosy palms, flogging the bishop, pick your cheesy cliche saying....

ROFL, duh. I wasn't clear though. I meant these things are suppose to be twice as fast as two 6800 ultras, no way come this xmas could you buy two for less than 600 and they are selling these things for 300. No fucking way. Then again M$ does own the world, but damn thats one hell of a loss.

yes, but as he was saying the loss seems like its going to be so great with the amount of power these things are claiming. That it seems to me these things will be at least 500-700 dollars, just to expensive equipment in these things to warrant a 300 price tag.

If these consoles have so much freaking power, I don't understand how these things could possibly sell for 500 dollars. They seem to trump any personal computer hardware ten-fold and its suppose to sell for 500 wtf. I don't understand how they will even come close to covering the costs of the...

Yea, I have about 30 some odd games on all machines, but all my machines are athlon 64s 2800+, 1 gig of ram, 6800 gts. Source sells itself and thats all people want to play. It sucks when I got a waiting line of about 20 all day, and they all come play to source. My store was half empty...

The steam 0:1 and 0:0 is the real reason, I own an internet cafe and have 30 keys, only 14 work at the moment and thats only the ones with 0:0 in the steam id. My others are out. You all are mad about your one copy not working, I got 16 not working on a freaking sat. Today is such a great day.

woot its unlocking

its 3

I just wanted to post a follow-up for you all that are interested. We will be opening in the next week and we now have a website http://dinkscafe.com DiNk

whoops my bad, oh well

I can't post in your forum on your website, but I am opening a LAN gaming center in Lexington, Ky between sept 15- oct 1st. Open date depends on how long it takes our cabinet guy to build the espresso bar. See my thread "Gaming Center" in this forum. We will feature about 40 comps to LAN...

nice :)

what the hell is going on, doh-nut having a fight between threads? thats so fucking weird and funny at the same time. Wow... I need one more curve for this thread to take so what do you all think of Penelope Cruz? Hottest woman ever.

yea dude wtf no one was arguing about which card is better he just said dead in the water, that doesnt imply that it sucks to me, just that its next to impossible to get, techinically ati is faster than nvidia(minus doom3) every other game that differences are very minor,I like ati but not...

nope never got it, i got a 6800 gt instead

Sorry about this post I was a lil high earlier and not sure why i thought that either way the 4in1 driver didnt work for me for the USB2 and gigabit lan, but as i look now it doesnt have chipset drivers that are individual, my bad :(

exactly, ati is windows only unless you like slideshow games

I'm slamming them because I know what the fuck im talking about. My favorite distro is Gentoo. ATI is slow as shit in linux my 9800 pro was actually slower than my nvidia ti4200. If you would like to know how bad they are go to http://forums.gentoo.org and just read around on peoples views...

Did you try installing the drivers individually? Because I had shitty performance after i tried the 4in1 driver and nothing seemed to work right. Installed each driver individually and it worked like a charm.

The ATI linux drivers are a shame, Its such a joke, and even when you get it working even though ut2004 and what not work but even with 60 fps it still feels very very nasty. Dont even bother with ATI accelerated drivers in linux unless you want an opengl screensaver or some variant, otherwise...

My aopen ak86-l let me install each driver individually, everytime i tried the 4in1 driver it never installed anything.

LMAO, sorry just find it funny how many times people said to install the mobo drivers, but glad you got full use of your card now, its so baller I love mine :)..

I dunno about that, because when you watch the fps counter in JO the cpu seems to hardly ever get used. Now that i got my 6800gt gig of ram and A64 2800+ i can run all high with 4aa, beautiful game its a steady at 40, but tends to drop to 20 when about 50 people are on screen once, still...

:D :D :D

Seems like a cpu limitation, what cpu do you have?What settings did you run both games at, also was AA/AF on?

Smart ass comment gets smart ass reply, "No, I could have sworn I was at a website about unicorn enthusiasts." That's the whole point of making the center, to have a place to have 46 machines all able to play doom 3 16x12. I am targetting the lanners who want the best of the best to play on...

I am not exactly sure how to respond to this, you seem very pissed off at me and I am not exactly sure as to why. What exactly do you think im getting myself into that I have not prepared myself for? Why not give constructive criticism rather than being a douche to me, what did I do to piss...

i got an extra 700 3dmark03 at a quick once try, evga 6800 GT, went from 11000 flat to 11700

I did one and only my 3 comps worked, and my buddies was busted and then about 10 people wanting to play, that was my first one i did like 4 years ago. It was pure headache and last 4 hours :)

Can you still buy just a 10mb switch? I only seen a 10mb hub, did you mean 100?

There actually is a store in town that just opened up, so I got competition. Originally I was thinking of making the systems less powerful and saving money. Thats a different story now. That is why I spec the comps so fast. He is running 2.8 ghz intel p4, 512 ram, geforce 5700 (nothing...

T-1 seems like my best bet because i need that upload speed, 1.5 down/up with that through my math theoretically it should be able to handle the entire store with 4kb up and down, just enough to have the whole store playing at once( thats for cs of course, those comp specs stated earlier look...

Im With Rizen, dude its pretty fucking clear what he meant.

I am just going with two sticks of 512ram, would rather just bet on the safe side, my main idea is going for a flawless experience and i can get the x800xts at 438 each shipped, I got two months to wait so they should eventually come in. If thats true I dont want to get the gt at 400. Unless I...

I got a nice Lite-on burner in my "no name" brand box free after rebate :) It's a 48x burner and had it for over a year. Now that was a deal in my mind :)
