Ok. So far this is what is been built and stable.
nf7-s
2500xp barton
512mushkin lvl2 3500
9800pro
80gb sata seagate hd
System runs stable and cool.
Well.. on benchmarks it's a champ. Way better than any pentium system i've used. So be it the highest i've used is a 2.6c so don't get all flamey at me.
I haven't really played too many games with it yet, but i have played CS,war3 and UT2003 without any hitches at all.
So.. I loaded up SWG and started to play it.. set all the graphics up as high as possible and went at it.
Unfortunately my computer doesn't seem like it can handle it and this pisses me right off. I'm not certain but pretty sure that my 2.8b with rdram was a bit better than this.
Now, the thing is.. my Pentium system flogged like hell in benchmarks. But.. didn't seem to be doing bad at all in games.
This computer seems to be exact opposite.
So here's my settings if anyone would like to help.
2-2-2-6 memory.
Virtual memory. 512-1500
I even set the resolution to 800x600 on windows while playing the game.
So.. if anyone could maybe give me a tip to help out that would be great. Becuase at this rate i might have to give into the intelism and give up on AMD which numerically has proven awesome, but doesn't seem to show in actual performance.
I'm really thinking somewhere there is something making this not work right.. maybe driver or something on that side.. i can't see hardware being at fault.

Figured i'd do it too..reality my ass.
