<0> i thought the dual core ones were the best to buy
<1> let's just say Pent D isn't spectacular for gaming.
<0> well
<0> not currently because games arent optimized for dual-core processors
<2> athlon 64 are better
<1> no
<0> but, in the future would it be better?
<1> Pent D vs Athlon 64... Athlon 64 wins hands down.
<2> yup lakevren
<1> at least in gaming
<2> I would add, both hands down
<1> in other apps... pfft, athlon 64 x2 still wins, lol.
<2> lol
<0> if i buy a 7900GTX, will it be able to run games on uber high settings?
<1> yeah it would.
<1> possibly.
<0> ok, so the gfx card is the only bottlneck
<1> this gen around wasn't a great jump
<1> going from 9800 to X800/6800 was a great jump.
<2> duomaxwel do you have a pcie motherboard
<0> yes
<1> im betting he does
<0> i have one PCI express slot on it
<1> cause 7300LE is PCi_E
<2> oh that's your card
<1> yeah
<1> it's... just
<1> pathetic.
<2> it's the entry model
<1> it's not cause of the "7300"
<1> it's cause of the "LE"
<0> LE - limited edition?
<0> ><
<1> 7300s do **** though
<1> more like light edition =P
<1> or lacking equiment
<0> now, lakevren, why do pentium D's **** for gaming?
<2> lakevren I am running a 6800gt now
<1> *equipment
<0> i didnt build this computer, which is unusual for me
<1> cause clock for clock they are similar to p4?
<0> i bought it
<1> from who?
<1> Dell?
<1> heh
<2> considering the 7900gtx, a guy is willing to bought it so I'll have only the diff to pay
<0> no
<0> worse
<0> HP
<1> HP is not worse than Dell
<1> compaq is... or was...
<0> O.o?
<2> compact hp dell all ****s , better build it yourself
<1> they all ****.
<0> why does it **** though?
<1> at least desktop-wise
<1> cause let's see...
<0> what would be the difference if i made this computer myself or if HP made it?
<1> they use low-qual parts?
<2> EXCEPT if you bought it from alienware or falcon
<1> Alienware is overpriced
<0> VERY
<2> yes
<1> good quality, but overpriced by 80%
<0> so is dell xpbull****
<2> but when your a millionnaire it's cool
<3> snoops
<3> your wrong
<1> anyways
<0> ok
<4> huh?
<0> give me a suggestion
<1> never buy a desktop.
<3> get 7600gt
<4> that's so out of context
<1> unless you are buying it from like... Monarch Computer.
<0> A) Return this computer and build my own B) Buy a better graphics card and shove it in there
<2> DuoMaxwel : suggestion, just get a computer for your needs that's all
<5> zomg...the newer dell laptops will only eject the cd tray twice in a row if you close it and push the eject button at the same time
<1> Duo
<1> wth do you play anyways?
<5> I used to play with it...now I hahve to wait a moment every third time
<1> or what would you like to play?
<3> what did you pay?
<0> what, you mean settings? or what?
<0> i tried playing black and white 2
<1> games...
<0> and this computer can barely run it on medium
<1> other games?
<1> lol
<0> Counterstrike source
<1> b&W2...
<0> battlefield 2
<1> with 7300LE...
<1> lol
<1> ok
<1> just get a 7900GT
<1> and yer good to go.
<0> i am?
<1> almost
<1> get rid of the HP.
<5> I have an x1600
<5> mobility...
<5> with 256mb
<0> and just build the same thing by myself?
<1> almost.
<2> DuoMaxwel : get a Asus A8n sli premium motherboard with a fast athlon 64 (as fast as your budget permit) a 7900gt or gtx with 2gig of ram and a nice hdd
<1> i would advise him to wait
<1> but i don't think he can
<0> my Bugget is ~1500
<1> cause if he waits, he gets nice price drops.
<2> return that comp, and pay the diff you'll be allright for a while
<5> get a macbook pro with the 256mb x1600 mobilty
<5> :p
<1> 1500?
<0> dollars
<1> USD, im guessing
<2> ok then get a 6800gt card in sli mode
<5> well my macbook was like $3200
<1> cause there's Canadian dollars, AUD, and NZD... and so on =P
<0> I've been running off of P4 1.8Ghz, 512 MB SDRAM, Geforce 2 for about 5 years now
<2> the best for your budget bro ..
<0> yeah, american
<0> i can get SLI with 1500?
<1> i would not get 6800gt in sli =P
<1> i would not get SLI, period
<5> do not get sli imo
<1> but that's me
<4> Shockwav?
<5> get an uber card
<2> lakevren the best for is money
<0> now, would i be anywhere good if i jsut kept the HP and bought an uber gfx card?
<2> depends on what he want
<1> cause god knows i won't be buying SLI unless the 2nd card actually does more than 50% of performance.
<1> duo yes...
<1> but uh
<1> i'd advise you to put like...
<1> fans on it.
<1> *75% not 50%
<0> yeah, my last computer (specs are above) had no fans in it, only the case fan and cpu fan
<1> yeah, only thing i bought from HP was pretty much printer and my first (current) laptop.
<1> no way in hell i would buy desktops from them
<1> HPs laptops are ok... not the greatest, then again, most laptops **** by default...
<1> but anywyas
<1> you have two options
<1> either get a new card...
<0> lakevren
<0> if i buy http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102008
<0> would i be good?
<6> sure
