That's why some of us took advantage of the preload and had it sitting ready on our system. Then I just had to wait 5 minutes or so for it to decrypt the files.

I was sleeping anyway so its not really a big deal, ive checked out the first ten minutes of the game before work, looks pretty awsome, the skinning and facial work is pretty awsome, Im worried about how the games going to run with hardcore action though.

Well you do have that weak nV card in your machine. Betcha wish you got an X800Pro now!

But Seriously, if YOU have a problem with action scenes with your rig, alot of us are in for trouble.

May have to build the new rig sooner than anticipated. Just wish the new 939 mobos would get here.

And yes, I might even rethink my GF6600 choice depending on it's performance (it's already the sucky card in the mid-range), but if the X700 does better and costs as much I'd be stupid to go with it. I'm VERY amped to see the GF6600GT versus the X700XT/PRO results. The X700 series was profiled at DriverHeaven, but no GF6600 seires cards. Seems like 1280x1024 no AA/AF for the ATI x700 cards.

Give it a month or 2 and lets see what happens in the Gfx card side when you have 2 years to develope drivers for a game over your competiters be amazed to see some good results which ATI have.
