Radeon 9250 is old no wonder she can't run it.

Umm not really. Vsync regulates framerates so it wont go over your monitor's refresh rate, therefore preventing tearing. Your usually capped at 60 or 85 fps (whatever you're monitor's refresh rate is. Something interesting: With vsync off, I notice a strange phenomenon where the tearing goes away (or reduced by 90%) when the fps goes over 500. I noticed this in HL2

Anyone else get a bit of pausing stutter in the barkeep area?

Took them long enough lol

Yea shut off vsync and watch your fps fly like mad

Man wtf my conroe idled 53C with the stock cooler @ stock speed! Now that I got the Zalman 9700 cooler I idle 44C /w 1ghz overclock.

I'm using this as my screensaver atm. It rawks, especially the motion blur whee http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_geoforms_home.html

550w should handle one 8800 just fine. However if you're going to add all these hard drives and stuff, or use an R600, then 650w would be ideal.

Haha

In lattice, my fps is 950

Has anyone tried running all the way to the Chernobyl plant early? I keep getting owned in the red forest lol

no. However you didn't specify the vid card you'll have.

Finally they replaced those horrid distant land textures with better ones, so a LOD mod isn't required. Also, I noticed that the playable land fades in over the distant improved textures (rather than pop in) so they all blend in really good. http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/updates_patches.htm

I recommend Cooler Master so far; I have their Real Power Pro and it's been superb. However I'm gonna put it through the SLi test next week when my second 8800 arrives so I'll see what happens stability-wise when I push that psu to the max.

They all work.

lol no didn't open Vista yet, and I don't see myself installing it until Crysis comes out

Thanks Tale, you really should start writing for GameFaqs lol

You're just defending it because your rig can handle it. Your rig can't handle XP?
