    CryEngine3 3-5 times Crysis

    Well if they can get a $200-$300 million loss each and every year till 2012 then they might not be around then

    I'm sorry, but I have to cry now

    You needed a UPS, really.

    4870x2 or gtx280 -does Physx support mean anything?

    I think NGOHQ managed to run physxn ati card. It was dirty hack to get it done but it did work. You might find that suddenly ati cards will have some sort of unofficial support for physx. I dont think this should be a factor in your buying decision yet, until the game market either goes...

    Beware of Refurbished/Open Box Video Cards, outside of missing accessories and DOA.

    Sometimes it takes weeks or months for the bad sectors to appear. If 1 HD died, then it's a fair bet the other one also sustained damage. You're nuts to accept either one.

    Are we witnessing the fall of Nvidia?

    It's like playing musical chairs for nvidia. So long as there are no kickass cpu/gpu combos they'll be fine. When that time does come in a few years, I wonder what will happen to them. I also read the Inq blog on nvidia. If the calculations are correct, then the latest mobile fiasco will...

    Why is there so much stuttering in Crysis when I'm on Vista?

    Uh because the founder of Crytek told the team to come up with less system requirements with same level of picture quality for their next project. They succeeded. And that next project is Crysis something. heh i forgot the name, but comes out in late september. So ya, it's poorly coded.

    8800 GTS G80 640MB is it time for me to upgrade yet?

    I still dont get the upgrade part. What's worth playing that requires faster than an 8800? I could understand if someone said they had an 24" and the normal resolution requires 19xx

    GPU Folding Guide

    For the final time (minus the caps *g* ), what proof do you have that it isnt harming the project. You assume this assume then assume that, then say that the folding client will somehow adjust for errors or whatever. That's one hell of an assumption. Short of just saying you're an...

    hey I also overclock - I have nothing against overclocking. I just mentioned that some posts in here advocated overclocking. Without intensive testing the overclocked machine, it could be detrimental to the project. Post #2, what does it say right in the quick guide? Overclocking. Ya such...

    GPU Folding Guide

    The point is that you wont know if the results are bad or good. You do know why, dont you. Has to do with what was said about the folding project concerned about people sabotaging the results. If you for example wanted to run the project into the ground by purposely submitting wrong...

    GPU Folding Guide

    "I would be quite surprised - and disappointed - if NVIDIA's CUDA or ATI's CTM actually allowed executing code to have bit switches and lost data. As you say, if you OC your card too much, it produces some artificts, if you OC further, it produces more artifacts, still further and the whole...

    yes. Prime95 will pass 10 mins if a cpu is moderately to severely overclocked but fail at 1 hour mark with errors. It doesnt mean much for stability but will run. I've seen prime95 fail at 22 hour mark. It doesnt crash, but since it is in diagnostic mode it'll tell you there's an error since...

    GPU Folding Guide

    I dont recall which article years ago, where the authors of folding mentioned they feared purpose sabotage and said everything calculated had safeguards, and all units are calculated more than once, then results are compared within the same units. Computers that consistenly send back incorrect...

    GPU Folding Guide

    You guys are not doing yourselves any favors by talking about overclocking the card for folding. If the person needs a guide to get this working, then it's a sure bet the same person isnt capable of overclocking the card safely, so that there are no calculation errors. For folding, i believe...

    Coolest Cake Ever!

    If you think about it, the cakemaker has to slave many hours to create this. In between that time, he probably breathed over it (rather extensively due to the fine details), and perhaps even coughed onto it. It's kind of gross. Beautiful cake though.
