havnt seen a review of this type. Atleast not a moden one. I'd like to see how a P4 or Athlon XP (single core) can handle Crysis ,UT3, and COD4 with maybe a 8800gt, or if it has to be AGP.. maybe a x1950xt or the new 3850agp. I'd like to see where the CPU...

people wait to save up enough just to buy some decent hardware. Just buy it if you want it otherwise wait. I'm gonna be playing crysis on an x1950 pro with 2Gb RAM and an A64 3700 SINGLE CORE, and you're worried about dual 8800GTXs and a Q6600! One game website...

dragged from a console and chucked at PC users with totally insane system requirements. Crysis ran perfectly well on my kids single core Athalon and x1650xt (my old rig). Mactronix Some of the more active posters on this forum have stated that Crysis...

affinity to a single core!!! I got fed up with using that alt tab method each time I started the games etc.. so I found an easier solution. By running IMAGECFG.EXE -A 0X1 or 0X2 or OX4 or OX8 (each OXn representing a core on my quad core, followed by the...

not knowing your budget or what GTX you're talking about) making sure you have an adequate vid card with a dual core over opting to spend more on a quad core. EDIT: Just saw you have a 8800. well i run crysis on 1280x1024 no aa and a mixture of high , medium...

I.e something resembling a mid range. Ok then. i prob would be playing at 1024x768 i think is it, how would it handle games in that resolution? which games? have you looked at toms charts? My guess is that card would handle Crysis at a decently playable level....

OS: Windows XP. This Betatest can be played on Vista but Vista is not officially supported. · CPU (Single Core): Intel P4 3.2 GHz/AMD Athlon 3200+ or higher · RAM: 1.5 GB · Disk Drive*: 8X or faster DVD-ROM drive · Hard Drive: 4...

The cards were flawed. Don't show me 3Dmark its a useless tool. As for handling crysis at 1920 all high with 1 GTS 640, I really doubt that. I've seen alot of benchmarks all of which the 8800 GTS 640 looses. If you can't handle that, thats your problem....

an increase, however your X = 2(X) in single threaded apps where X = Cores of a specific Architecture ignores that the CPU may be going something other then just the single app. I've seen every core in action even when playing games that are cleary only using...

cap to some silly number you will never use this side of 2020. XP will load up a single core to (near) max before it starts allocating processes to others. Vista spreads processes amongst the different cores right from the start. So yes, Vista's...
