    AM2 vs Socket Socket 939 - benchmarks!!!

    Out of curiousity would the increase in memory bandwidth have a performance increase when playing online games more than single player games? In World of Warcraft I know FSB is very important in increasing your FPS regardless of your video card. I know someone with a similar setup to me, but he...

    Windows freezes when i play video?!

    I thought about upgrading to Media Playet 10, but I forgot to mention that I also have Nero Showtime and I attempted to use that program and got the same result, shoulda mentioned that in my first post, but it slipped my mind. I may go ahead and upgrade anway, couldn't hurt.

    Windows freezes when i play video?!

    My comp is a compaq XP3200, gig ram, Windows XP Professional. Everytime I open up a video file or if I happen to go to a website that has a video that starts playing as soon as the page pops, my computer freezes up. It won't play the video and if I let my comp sit for about 1-2minutes sometimes...

    What do you play in WoW

    I have one of each class, although only my rogue, warlock and hunter are over 40. But I have barely been playing since the last patch, since it screwed up my game by causing a stutter every 3-4 seconds constantly. I have to disable the sound card to solve it, otherwise my Paladin would be over...

    New Zelda Screens

    Looks great, I like all of the zeldas except for the Adventures of Link, and the Wind Waker is great except for the boat thing, but still good. I'm gonna buy it. My computer looks way better graphics wise, it also cost over 6X the price, so it better have better graphics. But like said before...

    Anyone besides me actually excited about seeing what the Revolution will be like?

    Yes Definitely I have a Playstation2 & Gamecube from this generation. But, Ill admit I'm more anxious about the new Zelda than the Revolution's Hardware specs.

    Better FPS increase: Chip or Video?

    Do you play any Online games? My Athlon 3200XP is a big bottleneck in WOW for example because of the slow 333mhz(compaq motherboard) FSB even with a 6600GT, my Friends Pentium 533fsb runs WOW just as smooth with only a 9700 AIW.

    WOW graphics card and CPU review, about time.

    Yeah that's with any game though. More popular game = more hits.

    WOW graphics card and CPU review, about time.

    Yeah like one run from the inn to the Bank in Ironforge, going right past the Auction House. I agree something like that would be alot more helpful, but it's shocking to me to see a MMORPG getting reviewed on a major site like that.

    What's the funniest WoW Bug?

    I still like the loot bug, when you go to say Mine a Copper vein and you stay "stooped" after. You can run upto an enemy and attack, but in between attack your character goes back to the "stooped" position like it's picking up a quarter off the sidewalk.

    So I just ordered my new A64 setup. What do you think?

    His P4 is overclocked, BTW. I am not sure how much the A64's overclock, but 2.7ghz seems high.

    Which Card for Everquest2 ?

    Like the first post said I have heard about render issues with the 6800GT, but not sure if there are any issues with the latest drivers. Is there an EQ2 board you could ask on, they would probably know if there are still issues with certain Nvidia cards.

    Thinking of WoW

    Yeah I would try all the different classes and see what you want to play, most people that are bored already start a character and grind to lvl60(not all but most). I have 9Characters, the most you can have and when I get bored with one, I switch. Also, make sure you try both Factions, Horde and...

    its so hard to find a group on wow!

    No, the worst quest is one that tells you to go discover a place like Haunted Island in Stranglethorn, you do that and kill a dozen water elementals while your there, then run to all the way to BB and he tells you to go kill Water Elementals at the island you were just at (discovering) and...

    Which video card should I get???

    They would both be an excellent upgrade if he has Integrated Graphics now, what games is he trying to run? Anything that came out in the last year probably wouldn't run well even at lowest settings if they ran at all. *Note - One of my friends computers has a slot-A 700mhz Athlon, 512megs of...

    3709 in 3DMark05 - 6600 GT AGP

    Nice :) Although I don't think you would get ALOT higher with an A64, seems like 2005 is much more sensitive to your GPU than your CPU than 2001SE was. What did you get stock? and what drivers? I think I had got around 2800 with mine stock with the drivers that came with my 6600GT Leadtek and a...

    2.2 GHz A64 vs 2.5 GHz Athlon XP

    Rad, Wow you said that WOW went up 30FPS, what resolution, clip plane, details, video card did you use. I have run into a bottleneck on my computer and I think it's my Athlon XP 3200 with 333mhz FSB (compaq motherboard clocks it down). I am wondering if it's the processer's access speed to the...

    comparison of 2 Cpus looking to purchase 1 from newegg

    Thorton Thoroughbred I'll assume you mean these two? They appear Identical, both OEM, both 266mhz FSB, 256L2 cache, 1.8GHZ, only the Volts have different ratings, 1.6v VS. 1.65v. I dunno

    WOW Help needed

    Take the boat from darkshire to Methedil ? bay, then run to Ironforge, get the griffon in the bay and in Ironforge. But at level 17 you might wanna just stay in Darkshire for a few more levels then go south to Ashenvale and you can get to level 25+ there. BTW, there is a Gnome train that you...

    Maybe over asked question but when does it end?

    Awesome, thanks. I had the program installed several months ago, but it got lost in mix and I read a post here and remembered I had it installed. I was on some team I don't remember which, but I switched over since I come here more often.

    Should I get a 6600gt now? or wait...

    I have never heard of Leadtek Extreme, how much are they compared to the regular Leadtek? I have a Leadtek 6600GT and I really like it, the memory is at 900mhz on mine but goes over 1000mhz easily. Going from my 256meg FX5500 to the 128meg 6600GT was simply stunning.

    Post Pics of ur chars for WoW :D

    I have a 6600GT, I run it at 1280X1024, far object clip plane, middle terrain clip plane, everything max, plus I force Antialiasing 2X through the drivers. With the resolution maxed out for my LCD monitor that's all it needs and no jagged lines (well very few). I have a gig of PC3200 ram clocked...

    Here's a Hord pic, the game does look pretty descent when you play it. Plus since the graphics aren't too complex, they run very smooth for an online RPG.

I installed the card and installed the software, but now when it boots I get no sound and it says that "Bad...
