Sonic 292 Posted January 26, 2008 Nothing has changed in my system except for my budget Raidmax power supply, It crapped out. I replaced it with a nice shiny new Silverstone Element ST50EF-Plus, 500W ATX PSU. I'm so impressed by this PSU, it runs so silently. Share this post Link to post

TheBlackOut 6 Posted February 19, 2008 With an external for all my torrent, storing all my games and music is pretty easy on my 250GB. I need a new VGU, my CPU and stuff is OK for now, but I'm starting to lack. nVidia just bought that PhysX company, and EPIC (makes UTIII engine) uses it, so TIBERIUM is gonna use it... nVidia is gonna put PhysX on their 8800GTs and their new 9xxx series, can't wait!

BWare 0 Posted February 22, 2008 If you don't have a rig that can run it, sure Vista can be a pain...but I've had a great experience with it so far. Share this post Link to post

Doctor Destiny 40 Posted February 22, 2008 If you don't have a rig that can run it, sure Vista can be a pain...but I've had a great experience with it so far. I can run Vistaids on my machine but I don't want to. There's too much about it that bothers me. XP Pro for me. Instead of bitching about Vistaids, I'll post my machine. Motherboard: ASUS P5VD2-VM Intel Socket T Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo Conroe 1.8 GHz RAM: 2 GB of Kingston DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Video Card: nVidia GeForce 7900GS 256MB Hard Drives: 1 x 200GB Western Digital (primary), 1 x Western Digital 160 GB (secondary/slave), 1 x 500GB Western Digital (external) Media Drives: ASUS DVD/CD Reader/Burner with LightScribe OS: Microsoft Windows XP Professional (OEM) Monitor: Hyundai ImageQuest 19" LCD Speakers: 2 Altec Lansing speakers with subwoofer However, I'm upgrading soon-ish. I'm getting an 8600GT and a new PSU, which I need suggestions on, and another 19" flat monitor. Share this post Link to post
BWare 0 Posted February 22, 2008 Nice. Have you looked into the benchmarks for the 8600 though? The 7600 was a great card, but apparently the 8600 is a but underwhelming when it comes to performance. You may want to stick with the 7900 for a while, or look into the 8800 GS which you can get for something like 150 USD (pretty remarkable deal when it comes to price/performance). But yeah, especially when it comes to gaming, Vista can at times be a bit sluggish and unreliable. But you need it for directx10! Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 6 Posted February 22, 2008 Donno, I'd wait till the 9600GT is out. For the price they say it's going to be at, it's a pretty good deal. Share this post Link to post
