• The 6800 series cards will do better on the benchmarks, when the next official drivers are released. I'm using the beta 66.81 HWQL and noticed a good boost in speed over the 61.77. "www.guru3d.com" got a good review of comparing beta drivers to the…

• Still think a AGP card is going to preform better then a PCI one. saw 512MB RDRAM going for $112, but is 600Mhz memmoy.

  in Better crappy system? Comment by Lionus October 2004
• RDRAM is better then SDRAM, just need to buy another 512MB, if you can.

• Did you have the 90 nm 939 cpu?

  in How long will my computer live for O.o Comment by Lionus October 2004
• You should get a Athlon 64 3200 90nm 939pin and a motherboard that supports a 939 pin chip. You will be able to upgrade it later to 4000+, if you want. You should be able to overcloak a 90nm cpu better too, with a good heat sink. I think the 939 pi…

• If you could swap CPUs, put the P4 2.8 in sytem 1, then system one would be better. An AGP card is better the a PCI card, unless its a PCI express card.

• I'm pretty sure it's DVD only. They can't fit 10 CDs and all the goodies, that come with it, in one box.

  in Collectors Edition DVD only? Comment by Lionus October 2004
• I bought a Leadtek 6800 128MB card for $269. Good mid range card, didn't want to spend $400 on a GT. Got a score of 3992 on 3D Mark05 with it.

• Lot of people are talking about the grind of soloing, I'm more worred about if solo people can make enough money by themselves to afford items. I like to solo and group. Is there many quests, that give money as reward?

  in How hard is it to make money in EQ2? Comment by Lionus October 2004
• If you want a good mid range video card, get a Nvida 6800. It has 12 pipelines and 5 vertex processing units. I payed only $269 for mine. I got a score of 3880 on 3D Mark05, but that with it overclocked at 400/900.

• Well, I think consoles are becoming more and more computer like anyway. They already have a hard drive and NIC. The next generation PS3 and XBox2 will probly be able to run WOW and EQ2. And if you have a HDTV, you'll have the same high rezolution a…
