Building A New Computer For UT2007!

[Peregrine]

To answer the question: I am slowly upgrading. Kind of got forced to, as my mobo died.
So I bought a pretty good mobo and proccy and re-used the rest.
When the time comes I will buy what is currently a very high end AGP G card, which by then won't be so it won't be as expensive. And buy 1.5 G o' RAM.
My new mobo supports S-ATA and IDE, but NOT PCI-E.
Currently have IDE drives.
New proccy is an AMD64 2.0G.
Current VC is a GeForce4 TI 4200 64M (which when I bought it was actually clocked slightly better then the 128M model).
512M of DDR 400 RAM. Bump that is my next goal.
The key, I think is, big honking power supply, and a mobo that isn't maxed, meaning you have room to upgrade. Either that, or buy cheap mobos and replace them more often.
I think buying from stores is just crazy talk.

*OT kinda*
A co-worker asked "Can you recommend a good gaming laptop?"
I said "If price were no object, an Alienware."
He bought a top of the line $2,800 (after $500 rebate) Alienware laptop.

Got it the other day and brought it in to show me. Far and away the sweetest laptop I've seen in person. Also the largest I've ever seen!

The quadcores already here IBM made them..

GF7800 is faster than the GF6800 know why? about new technology and the core is 500mhz u can clock it to 730mhz Stabel "i already got it running it on sli" so Dual 730Mhz GPU's.

nextgen games will use more GPU's and PPU cards. bcause ther phsyX's.

an u can play next gen games on dualcores or single cores.

AMD 64 3400+ Or AMD 64 FX-55. FX-57 Or The AMD 64 X2 Dualcores.

And Pentium D And Pentium 4 N64 "With 64b Emulation"

Well, here's a starting place:

War_Tourist (from INA): "It was a P4 3.8 single core, on a single 256 meg nvidia 7800 gtx with 2 gigs of system RAM running at 1024x768."

Someone notes before the post, that the engine is tailored to multi-core systems, so if you can do that go for it.

so u are able to play the game on a p4 3.6 single core and pentium D and amd 64 fx and x2 the multicore is just noncense they dont gonna make a game that will use 4 cores. at this time the game runned begun this summer on a AMD 64 FX-55 with SLI GF6800
