<0> Rukk: see why I'm mostly on freenode now?
<1> because people on efnet cannot construct meaningful sentences?
<2> that site looks a bit lunatic to me
<1> the story is legit :\
<1> I verified it in a couple other places
<0> because people on efnet don't get manners unless you smack them down with twelve bans
<2> ok fair enough
<1> Shadowc4t: you have no manners.
<0> on efnet I don't
<0> mainly because it's no use being courteous to 75% of the people here
<1> thats not a excuse
<2> very true
<2> in fact being rude can make people rude so your just making things worse by being rude
<3> i think it;s a software problem cause I change the res to 800x600, it stopped flickering :/
<0> or your card just can't handle the game at a higher resolution
<2> whats the native resolution of the LCD?
<3> 1280x1024@60
<3> it's a 19inch
<2> whats the GPU ?
<3> geforce 6600
<0> please don't tell me he's trying to run oblivion on that
<3> no, rfonline and gw:factions
<3> so i dunno
<3> if it happens to more than one game, it's something serious
<3> driver conflict or hardware communication i guess..
<0> uhhh
<2> I have 6600 GT and no it doesnt really cut it now not if you want fsaa and AA
<2> im about get a new ard
<2> card
<0> I don't see why people have to go out and buy these uber expensive cards anyway
<2> you bough 6600 gt that was expensive
<2> I heard RFonline ****s?
<0> note I said uber expensive
<0> I buy cards in the middle performance price range
<4> Uber?
<4> because, great performance with the greatest stability
<2> 7900 gt is 425 dollars
<4> Yes, it's more logical to get midrange and oc
<0> RedDragon: you don't get "great" performance
<4> I do
<4> I dont see a problem
<2> with what ?
<2> what card do you use red dragon ?
<4> firegl
<0> you get a hot card sounding like a vaccuum cleaner that just happens to deliver decent performance, and all that for a kidney
<0> RedDragon: fireGL != gaming card
<4> alright, for the last ****ing time
<4> I dont play ****ing video games
<4> I do rendering
<1> if you do professional ****
<1> spending on a good card is very worthwhile
<2> oh I see
<0> RedDragon: then you're not in this discussion at all
<4> Good performance is when I can do 29387598 at once while waiting the least time for rendering
<1> heh
<4> **** you then
<4> ***hole
<0> I'm talking about the people coming in here wanting quad sli, which is just a waste of money
<4> I like my highend hardware
<1> personaly, I prefer my 256mb wildcat IV to firegls :\
<4> hmm
<4> I might have to try that out
<4> I've been looking around
<1> 3dlabs man
<1> NOTHING touches them
<0> if you're doing rendering I really don't care what the card costs
<0> as long as you get the darn work done on time
<4> I dont care what you think
<1> kids, kids..
<4> so why bother typing useless crap
<1> get along.
<4> :-p
<4> alright
<4> <_<
<1> thank you.
<2> true
<1> Shadowc4t: no, you started bitching people out.
<1> not that I disagree with you one bit about the stupid amount gamers spend on trendy cards
<0> Rukk: then again, I always get called in to cool the things
<1> as do I
<1> if fixing overheating video cards is giving you a ulcer, maybe its time to look into a different career? :X
<2> is 425 dollers a lot of money for a card in the USA?
<4> yes
<0> doesn't give me an ulcer, but I still think it's a waste of money
<4> to some people >_>
<1> agreed.
<0> you pay one kidney for the card, and then a second kidney for the cooling to quiet it down
<2> lol thats the price for mid range
<4> Shadowc4t, everything gives you an ulcer
<1> lazerbeak: around $200
<1> you could do nicely for less
<0> although I'd be a lot happier if they included a socket for the gpu
<0> it's about high time too
<1> between 6800GS, 6800NU, various 7600 series cards, x800s, etc.
<0> that way we could see some really innovative socket cooling solutions for them
<2> not true you want even get 6800 gt for that ? but then im not in the USA so I dont know
<4> I'd prefer dual core gpu's to dual-core cpus
<1> I get 6800GT 256mb cards for less than $200 usd.
<1> and I dont call that a midrange card, by any means.
<0> it's a midrange now
<1> bull****
<2> 6800 gt is mid range
<0> but it wasn't designed as one
<4> yeah
<1> a 6600 (non GT) is midrange.
<2> sorry no
<1> do you know what midrange means?
<0> Rukk: between the 7300, 7600, 7800 and 7900 it's midrange
<0> midrange performance mind you, not price
<2> thats what I ment
<1> 7300 I would definetly consider midrange, 7600 is iffy. depends which incarnation it is.
<2> the 6800 gt will just about run games with FSAA and AA at about 20 fps if your lucky
<0> 7600GT != midrange
<0> 7600 maybe
<1> yeah, definetly
<1> 7600 is
<0> but the entire 6xxx series is old news
<1> yes
<1> however
<0> doesn't stop my local shop from charging an insane amount for it though
<1> they do what most people want from a video card wonderfully.
<2> I dont know anyhing about the 7300 is it better than a 6800 ultra ?
<0> most people would do fine on integrated graphics
<1> not really
<1> people want to play bf2
<0> well those people can use the 6150 :P
<2> sometimes the top range of old series is better than the bottom the new
<1> I dont know how many times I hear it.. "I want to play battlefield 2, what video card do I need?"
<1> I sell alot of 6600GTs and 6800GS cards.
<0> Rukk: I would suspect a 6200, 6600
<1> a 6200 isnt enough.
<1> a straight 6600 is sorta
<0> no I guess not if you want to run it at full settings
<1> if you want to run 1024x768 smoothly, you need a 6600GT bare minimum
<0> heh
<2> 6800 gs blows im have one I had to trade in my 6800 GT for it
<1> I quite like them
<1> cheap, and they overclock very well if you buy a decent brand.
<0> as a general rule I don't like any gpu with a fan on it, and will avoid/mod if possible
<2> yeah but I want FSAA and AA
<0> but that's because I want them quiet
<1> Shadowc4t: agreed
<1> lazerbeak: then prepare to shell out for today's unoptimized games.
<0> so I'd get a 7300 over a 6800, even if some gamers in ehre would lynch me for that choice
<1> meh
<0> here*
<1> there are nice p***ive 7600s.
<0> Rukk: which don't cool adequately
<2> true they are badly wriiten BF2 is terrbly written even the server broswer is a hog
