From my understanding ... a 6800GT 256mb or Ultra will be able to play on high settings at 1024x768 (maybe 1280x1024 with a good CPU).Kantham said:I have the AMD athlon 3700+ 64 bit @ 2.2 ghz , XFX 6800 128 mb and 1 gig ram.
I also hope i will be able to play med details. I will try to get the 64 bit version.
From my understanding a X800 XL 256 is pretty much equal to a 6800GT 256 , at least thats what I see in benchmarks..$n][pErMan said:From my understanding ... a 6800GT 256mb or Ultra will be able to play on high settings at 1024x768 (maybe 1280x1024 with a good CPU).
Ya .. 128mb is not going to cut it. As for the X800 XL vs. 6800GT it depends on the game. Both cards are extremely close and weather or not a game is optimized or not for nVidia or ATi will determine who wins that particular benchmark BTW... you try 3dMark 06 yet??? It beats the sh!t out of your system! I scored 2581... which is pretty much what everyone was getting with my card. Even the 7800GTX 512mb in SLi I have only seen scores around 7800 or 8000 (not much higher). I think im finally going to go SLi when the G71 cores come out for nVidia (32 pipe goodness) Then I'll really be set for UT2k7jerdaygo said:From my understanding a X800 XL 256 is pretty much equal to a 6800GT 256 , at least thats what I see in benchmarks..
I would think the big problem for Kantham would be the 128 meg of video memory.
ack.... at least the 2600+ is a barton core though... you could really OC the hell out of that CPU with a good HSF As for the rest.... might take some cashcraze said:argh, all your compurters seem to PWN mine, seing as I just blew all my upgrade cash on stuff other than upgrades, god look at these specs:
AMD Athlon XP 2600+ 1.9GHz
1GB RAM
ATI A-I-W 9600 128MB(eww ATI, least I can use dual screen...)
180 GB total HD space(3 HD total)(LMFAO of all that I only have ~3GB free)
I dont like this, I need an upgrade....

virtual mem does not even come close to ram. Hard Drive access time compaired to ram is extremely SLOW. As a matter of fact... if you have enough ram (~4 gigs) its best to turn virtual ram completely off along with the windows swap file.craze said:hell, looks like ive found the source of my overheating problem, ive been running with teh outward facing side of the case off for the past 3 months due to overheating problems(insane crap in WC3 where it begins to lag from a maxed out processer) and it looks like ive found it, ya know, it realy realy REALY helps if the CPU fan intake is not 100% blocked by a caked on layer of dust, ya know, just a little... (im an idiot...)
EDIT: RAM dont exactly count, with all the virtual mem i got goin(well i had to kill some of it of cuz my HDD maxed out when I was backing up something.) I had like 6 or o gigs of virtual mem, dont eaxctly konw why...
