    X3: Albion Prelude has been released

    Thanks for the response. This series has frustrated me so much since Reunion. There is so much potential there, but it is hampered by terrible performance during any type of large scale combat. I get a few capital ships and a bunch of fighters and then just give up because actually doing...

    X3: Albion Prelude has been released

    So what kind of performance are people getting in this? I get a constant 60 fps most of the time, but during battles involving more than just a couple fighters I'm sinking down to 15-20 fps. For reference I have: i7-875k HD 5870 8GB of RAM During this scene I was getting about 20 fps:

    The AMD Driver Bug Thread

    As far as I know, I'm talking about the slow display mode switching bug, the last one on your list. Manifests itself everytime I load a 3D application (in full screen mode. works just fine if I start in windowed mode). One screen goes black followed by the second and they sit there black for...

    The AMD Driver Bug Thread

    I just want to point out that the front page says switching to drivers earlier than 11.1 resolves the slow mode switching problem. Well, I've switched back to 10.12 to try and get away from it and the problem is still present. A little google searching shows some posts on the amd forums...

    Dual Monitor: Problem Going Full Screen

    Oh, thanks so much for the info Rev. I was not aware that it was a known problem. It's disheartening to see there is no workaround, but at least there is awareness. I hope AMD is aware of it.

    Dual Monitor: Problem Going Full Screen

    So I have a bit of a problem whenever I launch a full screen application and I'm a bit stumped. Problem: Start fullscreen application. Primary monitor goes black, followed by secondary monitor. Both sit there black for up to 30 sec. Both monitors go back to desktop for a few seconds. Then...

    Space sim games?

    I second this one. It is absolutely amazing. Only costs $30. Nice graphics...not Crysis level, but it looks quite pretty. Ship customization-pick parts and arrange/scale them anyway you see fit. Newtonian flight model (can switch to IDS mode that is similar to the flight model used...

    OnLive video demo

    I agree with you on this point, I definitely misunderstood your message earlier. I'm very much afraid this will become the standard and if it does I'm jumping ship. I got enough QUALITY games that I won't really be that bummed out about it.

    OnLive video demo

    Very first info I heard when they first presented it was that you pay for the subscription AND games. I thought, "well that's lame" and haven't really followed it since. I agree that if you ONLY had to pay the subscription ($20-40/month) it would be financially attractive. I don't think that...

    OnLive video demo

    Yeah, seriously man, forget paying hundreds of dollars on a gaming rig. Instead, let's pay Onlive a few hundred dollars in subscription fees over a few years for a subpar experience. Even assuming the subscription fee is very low, like $20/month, that's still $960 after four years. You still...

    Dual monitor question

    Thanks for the reply. And that's a bummer with TF2 since that's my most played game right now.

    Dual monitor question

    Okay, I'm wanting to set up a dual monitor configuration, but I had a couple questions I was hoping someone on here could answer. 1) I mainly want two monitors so that I can game on one while watching TV (through a tuner card) or a DVD on the other. Will this work fine if I game in full...

    So i grabbed oblivion on Steam

    If you enjoy playing a character who utilizes magic, I highly recommend installing Midas Magic and Less Annoying Magic Experience (L.A.M.E.). L.A.M.E. increases the usefullness of spells. Summons and shield spells now last for a minute or more instead of 20 seconds or less and cost the...
