I was looking at some benchmark test scores with the MB Pro running Half-Life 2, Day of Defeat: Source, Counter Strike: Source, and Episode 1, HL: The Lost Cost. With the ATI X1600, and everything turned up all the way, i.e. (AAx4/AFx16/HDR Full/1200x1024 res.) it got 66-79 FPS depending on the...
I'll use dxtweaker and force triple buffering to allow me to get decent framerates with AA/AF/HDR. Plus, I usually just play Half-Life 2 Mods, DOD, CS, and so forth. That game was built around ATI technology, so that helps even more. It's mostly for school anyways, I just didn't want to have to...
So I have to buy XP? Alright, I'm ok with that, i'll purchase XP Professional. When it comes to installing all of that, is there a manual online I can follow just to make sure I don't screw things up? If I successfully install bootcamp, how do I boot to whichever operating system I want to use...
It has been quite sometime since I have used a Mac, but I will be fine, memory will kick in sometime :D. Bootcamp easy/user friendly? Or do I need to be a computer whizz to use it?
Hi, I will be going to ITT in the Spring and I for sure need a laptop. I have heard many great things about the MacBook Pro. My question is, will it be enough to handle intense editing in FinalCut, 3D Modeling, & some intensive gaming on the side without slowing down? I usually just play...
i am about fed up with my 7900GTX, it just doesnt perform like it use to, and it performed really crappy in 3dmark06. Would it be worth it get a x1900xt?? most of my games are for ATi cards anyway, cept' F.E.A.R., i want to RMA my card to dell and pay the difference for a x1900xt. what should i do?
Ok i decided to try overclocking my 7900 to 665mhz, when i did that my card started to artifact in quite a few games (half-life 2, fear, doom 3 and so on). when that happened i reset back to stock settings, now my games perform a little worse than when i first got it. is there a way i can change...
ok i got a 7900 GTX okay, i play half-life 2 with settings maxed and i only get 40-50FPS, i sometimes go into the 30FPS!! i mean i guess half-life 2 was really meant for the ATi users right? is there anything i can do to tweak half-life 2 so i can get better FPS out of my card?
