GPU vs. CPU Upgrade: Extensive Tests "Geforce 6 and 7 cards are hardly suitable for current games and modern LCD resolutions—the higher graphics settings in the test show that the older graphics chips really have reached their limits. This is obvious, at the very latest, when you try to combine a Geforce 6800 GT with a more powerful CPU, which does not achieve any palpable increase in 3D performance. However, games are not 100% dependent on the graphics card; the Geforce 8 and 9 require a basic level of power, otherwise they are unable to exploit their 3D potential. The speed of the CPU should lie somewhere between 2600 and 3000 MHz; any lower, and the new graphic…

For those that have been interested, there is a new beginners Taoist Tai Chi class that just started that you can still get in on. See my sig below. It's over on Kenmore Ave by St. Joes. Mondays & Wednesdays from 6-7pm for 3 months. You will learn all 108 movements of the Taoist Tai Chi set taught by yours truly. I 1st began doing Taoist Tai Chi in 1996 (damn 14 years). Next week Monday will probably be the last day to join for this session as the class will then be too far ahead after that.

I got to play the Steam beta of R.U.S.E. Over all good game. Still needs some work of course. I personally had trouble getting the hang of pace and build time line. But then I haven't played multi-player RTS in since Company of Heroes first came out. Speaking of which, if you liked C of H you'll probably like this too. It's on a larger map scale, but similar unit scale. 10's of units vs. 100's of units. One of my complaints with the best is one of it's greatest features. Surprise attacks. If your unit gets ambushed, the attacker does extra damage. My issue is if you are on the edge of hidden units range and moving around. You can get ambushed several times…

I have more money that I expected to have to spend on my next system (too bad, eh?). anyway, what's ppl's opinions on maybe dropping the extra $$$ to go with a amd64 x2 chip vs. amd64? both are socket 939 so I could upgrade down the line, or just drop the cash now. There are some pretty nice deals on pricewatch for mobo/cpu/ram combos. I just don't know if the price difference is worth it. I'll def. be picking up a nice pci-e video card, like I said, dunno if I should splurge on a chip, specifically an amd64 x2 3800. kevin

I just bought a 150G Raptor drive to replace my 74G Raptor. I benched the 74G, then copied the contents to 150G and benched that one. I also benched my 320G storage drive too. I used the most accurate method. Results: That big dip is a known issue. I've seen this exact screenshot on tons of benchmarks. HDTune
