yea cheaper to build it, newegg.com is one of the best online stores i've ordered now..

but hell if he want everything running fast like shit and stable out of a box, yes there is dell the right company for. so he doesn't have all that problems with the drivers and shit, installing all that crap what takes you a good hour..

but hell yea his config looks awesome pretty much the same i have but he's using quad core and i use dual core..

this is an article on gamespot.com
comparison with Vista very high quality, and XP very high quality
quote from it...

The game officially limits in-game settings to "high quality" in Windows XP, while Windows Vista gets an additional "very high quality" graphics setting. Crysis still looks good at high quality, but it's a noticeable step down from the very high quality settings. Some ingenious users managed to enable very high quality on the Crysis demo in Windows XP through a clever bit of configuration-file editing. The second image in each set of comparison shots demonstrate what the hacked very high quality settings look like in Windows XP.

My new pc is fucked. It wont boot up,no beeps no nothing. I've tried reseting the CMOS but nothing. I'm guessing its either the motherboard or graphics card that is fried.

I didn't do anything to the bios. I just went to turn it on and it would not boot up. Nothing shows on the screen either. Not sure whats wrong with it.

 

[miamiracing]

just reinstalled F.E.A.R. its a pretty good game

oh and you ever tried "Condemned Criminal Origins" ? Fucking amazing but you can't jump thats stupid... but gfx and sound is amazing (same engine like fear)

 

[Hypocrisy86]

GOOD GAME FEAR!!!
still got my gold edition
waiting for the perseus mandate expansion pack
it should be out this week i think
tomorrow..

 

[Pain]

I have to get a new motherboard. Its totally fried. I blame crysis.

I played that new FEAR expansion and it was terrible. FEAR aged really bad. It used to be a system hog, now it just looks like shit.

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Picked up Call of duty 4
collectors edition
had to wait like 20mins
the guys at best buy had to dig in the inventory in the back of the store
lol... got their 2hours before they stocked the game ahhaha
im stuck now though, on the S.A.S. mission near the end of the game
your USMC part of the game, at the end is immense, huge nuclear explosion... good graphics, but also the music, ..its like theater music
the gun sounds is amazing, never have i heard such realism from that.

 

[miamiracing]

i tried the Demo Version but i didn't liked it.. reminds me of Battlefield 2142

if your going to play the game on a higher difficulty setting (more than regular)
prepare to die alot more than any shooter lol, i was stuck on this short mission
probably one of the last missions
played it for 2 half to 3hours kept dying
it'll keep you occupied

Very fucking intense..
you respawn right when you die

its insane...fast paced, if you suck at online FPSs i suggest practicing
well mostly for deathmatch ones..
