    Help don't know which brand 6600GT to get :(

    Hi all, I am also about to buy a 6600gt AGP and trying to decide which brand. Please excuse me for dropping into your topic but maybe I can add some value. MSI is 25% more expensive over here so i guess I'll drop it. Gigabyte and Leadtek do not seem to be available at all, at least not...

    6600gt or 6800gt (AGP) ?

    nothing else matters? only the resolutions, AA's and AF's that I want to use? no effects on frame rate, functions, etc? if that's the case really, might as well stick with the 6600gt and use the remaining 150Euro to buy myself a nice Logitech steering wheell :-)

    Chronicles of Riddick EFBB: system crashes

    definitely a GREAT game. so far, better than hl2. will try some more options to see how far I can get it. I own a Samtron 75E CRT. 60Hz was just another test: it did seem to buy me a little more time playing but I guess it was just an impression, doesn't make sense does it? what else...

    Chronicles of Riddick EFBB: system crashes

    Patch?! The info I got from the official game forum was that VUG was assessing the patch for release. The link you provided seems to be for a level editor. Does it do more than that?
