    RIP dennilfloss

    We're all getting older. Had a few nice discussions with Den over the years, but nothing recently. He shed that creepy old man internet persona in OT over time & became a real staple there. Sad. RIP

    Recommendations on a used card for an older system

    Sorry for the late reply. PC was down installing some minor things. CPU is a 1.8 c2d. Power supply is actually a 500w FSP. I think it was $80ish & came recommended back in the day. A friend is giving me a 1gb gtx460 for a song. Hopefully it wont melt my pc. Cheers.

    System has pci & pci-e 16 slots. 400w power supply. Core 2 Duo. Currently have a nividia 8400gs. Ideas? I haven't been in the game for years & have no idea what's available or what is a fair price. Looking to spend less then $50. I've just been gaming on minimum settings, & want to at least...

    Corruption/odd pixels on bios & Windows startup. Games all stutter & freeze intermittently.

    Thanks for the quick reply. :) I'm almost positive that the video driver can't be the issue, since it ran perfectly fine for over a year without me touching anything. An install of the latest update as well as a rollback hasn't changed things. The default driver limits my resolution, but it...

    Games where the AI is just too good

    Civ is a prime example of cheating & lack of real AI. You can choose the bonuses the computer gets ahead of time. Anything past regent just isn't fair. I was never good enough at the first two, but the technique to beat Civ3c on Sid comes down to getting a good-sized island to yourself...
