<0> 9xxx series of cards were great
<0> .... if you used windows
<1> no I'm a linux gamer, duh
<1> *rolls eyes*
<0> heh I don't recommend graphics cards very often
<1> and once I got ut2k4 to run in linux on it
<2> I'm a linux noob, whats the best version to start with?
<0> mainly because I'm biased torwards nvidia
<0> Bez-UK: see #linux-noob
<3> Nvidia has nice drivers
<0> nvidia has drivers that work
<0> they aren't nice
<0> ati however just have drivers that work when they want to
<0> which isn't very often
<3> uh
<1> the x series work a lot better in linux
<1> the xxxx series
<1> lol
<1> Xxxx
<1> the x1xxx series even moreso
<0> b***goon: the nice thing about nvidia is that you can plug just about any of their cards in
<0> and even if the open source driver doesn't recognize it it'll run in generic mode
<0> and you'll still get most of the funtionality
<0> whereas if the ati driver doesn't recognize your card
<0> it kicks you into a console
<1> x has generic ati drivers...
<1> I really think you are just saying stuff to say it
<1> cause my friend dropped a radeon 9800 pro in his linux box and it just worked
<1> the 3d didn't work
<1> but X desktop was fine
<0> b***goon: the 9800 is recognized
<0> it's when it isn't recognized that there's a bigger problem
<1> I will agree that getting radeon 9000 series to work in linux is a pain in the ***
<1> in 3d at least
<1> http://www.collegehumor.com/pictures/1681430/
<2> I tried that on my girlfriend b***goon but got a parse error
<1> haha
<2> j/k her tits am***ive :D
<2> LMFAO
<2> http://www.collegehumor.com/movies/1682020/
<2> I've been there
<2> off to bed peeps
<2> see you later
<4> http://sheendigital.com/alba/
<0> heh
<0> sicko
<4> Jen made me do it
<0> liar
<0> www.whitehouse.gov
<4> o noes
<5> yeah
<6> how are aopen, soyo and MSI as mobo makers?
<7> dfi is good
<7> =P
<6> heh :) yeah my last was a dfi/ITOX collabaration that served me well... untill it mysteriously stopped working
<6> do you know anything about chipsets? are the i865 and via pt800 similar?
<6> i'm ***uming I should be avoidinng SIS chipsets, but I don't have any solid reasons why
<7> via ****s
<7> imo
<7> i865 seems to be fine
<7> i have a sis chipset board from foxconn
<7> sis 655 i think.. it has great stabilty and great buisness app speed
<6> hm
<6> business app speed is what I need. I'm not much of a gamer
<7> whoops
<7> kreep my shell ****s.. you on a budget for mobo?
<7> thats why you considering even getting via or sis?
<7> **** im not really here )*@#%&@
<6> ah I'm on a pretty tight budge
<6> I want t o stay at 60$ or less :(
<6> if possible. I'm looking around on ebay right now... I see a MSI (i865PE) and a SOYO (viapt800) that look like they might go for around 60$
<7> well the foxconn one i got was 35$
<7> brand new retail from newegg
<6> is it really worth shelling out for a mobo then?
<6> is it still sold?
<7> yup
<6> ok another stupid question. how much of a differencec doest his single channel double channel **** make? right now I'm using a ddr266 256MB stick and a ddr400 512MB stick.. I ***ume I can' tdo dual channel with that. is that hurting my performance a lot?
<7> 30% more with dual channel id say
<7> id just ditch the 256 stick
<7> and use another pc3200 512 stick
<7> they are like 20$ it seems now
<7> wellfor me
<7> i dont see the foxconn intel board now tho at newegg only the socket 775
<7> but i really dont knwo what socket you need
<6> 478
<7> ***rock makes some really cheap boards with agp and pcie
<7> for 478
<8> ahhhhhh customers ;D
<7> kinda picky about the gfx card you use on it
<8> yesterday I built them brand new computer
<8> today they break it so it doesnt post
<8> tomorrow I fix it, for more $$
<7> but i like my two boards i have that are 478 ***rock for 45$ each i belive
<7> **** i dont see that board for sale either at newegg
<6> sounds like a good deal to me (customers). i don't want pci-e. ****.. heading over there myself (newegg)
<9> pci-e owns man
<7> it has both those kreep
<7> it actually has onboard video too
<7> so you can easily hook up 5 monitors
<7> ima go smoke and check the model numbers
<7> i have the boxes outside i think still
<6> yeah, pci-e is good... but by the time I have the money to shell out for a good pci-e gfx card, I''ll be building a brand new s ystem. this board I'm shopping for is just a stopgap
<6> ok c ool, thanks
<7> whoops forgot to check
<6> heh heh. you have a brain like mine
<7> i was smoken some keef and bomb
<7> ok grabbed it
<7> now to find somewhere that actually sells them
<10> !list
<7> nope dont see them for sale
<6> ****
<7> what cpu do you have?
<6> p4 2 .4
<6> not sure what core and all that
<7> i bet they where really popular and taken away from there worse more expensive board sales
<6> heh could be. these had pci-e and agp on the same board?
<7> the asrock did
<7> it has 915gl chipset
<7> and socket 478
<7> i still have two of them one with pcie one with agp card
<7> x800gt works really good on it
<6> what's the model #?
<7> p4dual-915gl
<7> p4dual-915gl/m/asr
<7> foxconn is 655a01-fx-6lrs
<6> is the 915 the succesor to 865/875?
<7> http://72.14.203.104/search?q=cache:DopR66AVnkQJ:www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp%3FItem%3DN82E16813186011+655a01-fx-6lrs&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=5&client=firefox-a

<7>
<7> La venta de este artculo finaliz a U$S 63.00
<6> fiesta!
<7> shipping 2000 pesos
<6> heh. that's probably l ike 50 cents
<6> how does this one look: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813130467R
<7> looks refurbished
<6> yeah
<7> 30 day warrenty on that type thing
<6> considering that I've had 2 mobos die in the last year, I guess that's probably a bad thing
<7> but maybe not.. i called one place and they told me that when i was buying gfx cards
<7> they said all refurbished is just 30 days i told them they are rippoff
<7> i cant belive they phased out high tech 478 boards
<6> what do you mean by high tech?
