Fall Extreme Gamer System Shootout Part 6: Totally Awesome Computers Ridiculously Insane
Half-Life 2
Benchmark Conclusions
This system is the slowest performer we have tested in this round up. The only thing we can ask ourselves is why? One could say it was not running the way they originally sent it out, tweaked out and in RAID 0, during our benchmarking. Maybe, but RAID 0 really should not affect the fps, and if it did, not by much. A more realistic conclusion is that the graphics cards were not configured to run at the same level we saw the others running at. The settings in the BIOS would not have changed, and if they did, why did the customer service personnel instruct us to rebuild the OS without supervision or an image of the system?
