    GTX 460 vs old GTX 260 Core216?

    I have a GTX 260[216] also and have been following the video card section here for quite a while now. The op situation is sort of similar to mine except I have a 22" monitor and play at 1680x1050. My cpu is an i-7 920@3.360ghz,psu is a PCP+C 610wt. My only reason for an upgrade would be for...

    Just finished F.E.A.R.

    I picked up Extraction Point on a whim a month or so ago at Gamestop for $19.95! Of course Steam comes out later/cheaper. Anyway I installed it and forgot about it but will be at it shortly. Thanks op/all

    Call of Duty: Vietnam

    I love VietCong and Fist Alpha. Finished both many times. They are not easy but once you get going they are hard to put down. I actually finished VietCong II also. You first play as an American then as a Vietnamese. VCII wasn't as good as VietCong though. I make sure I install VietCong and...

    FarCry

    I love Far Cry too!. I have it installed in my Vista64 i7 rig [GTX260] using the 64 bit patch. I'v got it in a P4 XP, agp XFX 7950 box also. My biggest gripe with the game at first was no quick save until I found the /save_game 1 or whatever command. After that I remember typing that...

    My 3.2C is still running fine after all these years.

    DiRT 2 Demo is out

    I just played the demo and I really like it and will buy it. I have GFWL already so I didn't care about that. I averaged about 72fps in the bench with everything on high at 1680x1050. Demo ran real smooth I'll up everything to Ultra in the retail game like I have in Dirt when I get it. I...

    Which card does everyone have?

    evga GTX 260, core 216, 896mb. It's about a year old and works fine for me on a 22" Acer @ 1680x1050. I play Grid, Crysis, World At War, Stalker [ShadowOf Chernoble] and such. I see a lot of ATI cards being used here. Don't know what my next card will be.

    Most underrated PC games you own

    I agree with the op re: Medal/Airborne. I just got it working on Vista64 with rig in sig. I had originally played through it on a P4 with a 7600GT agp and it was not very fluid but I loved it. This time however it's fantastic with a GT260 and an i7-920. It was underated when it was first...

    Unreal Anthology for $2 (in store pickup) at Gamestop if you can find it

    I just picked this up at my local Gamespot for the above mentioned $1.99. All the games work well with Vista64. No disc needed after install. For $2 it saved a lot of time looking for my old discs. Think I'll try to finish Unreal II Thanks for the post.

    Cryostasis single player demo released

    Same here. Retail game working on Vista64 using Nvidia Beta 185.81 and latest Physics drivers but the game does run slow. It needs to be patched/optimised or something. Gameplay is different and interesting. Atmospheric for sure but I don't know. If they fix it to be more fluid it would make...
