OK - my link will not post. Just visit http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/ and go to the forums. Look up the ATI stuff, and you will see what I was trying to say. Seems to me the whole video card thing is up in the air - Half life 2 does not like Invidia, but HF2 got ripped off. Doom 3 does like Nvidia. I read in my CPU magazine (computer power user) that ATI paid Valve 5 million - no bs - 5 million dollars for their little endorsement. No, I cannot find the article, look for it yourself. But it is there, in a small blurb.
I'm just gonna stick with my GF4 ti4200 and upgrade to the next gen cpu- mem- mobo thing. Seems to be no clear
video solution, after visiting my link.

Cheers! Chazz

Chaz bro,

A little info. All video cards have tons of problems. I dont care how good a card it is there will be certain hardware/software configurations where the video card will just have problems.

Ati makes great cards. Right now better than Nvidia in most cases. Nvidia makes great cards and will probably catch back up and be on top one day.

Also before you post facts make sure they are correct. Ati gave Valve five million so they could bundle Half Life II with their cards. A HUGE selling point imo. Buy a Ati card get one of the most anticipated games of all time for free.

And no one knows for sure which card runs Doom III or Half Life II better. Neither have been released in their final state.

And before you say the 9500 was a junk card you should look at how many thousands have them who do not have problems with them. Its not a junk card. You may of gotten a bad one, or even a good one that did not agree with your system. It happens.

gamespy says Halo II is more anticipated than HL2

 

[dfloyd]

Hmm not sure why.

Maybe console gamers out number PC gamers.

Personally I enjoyed Halo and co op was alot of fun but it was just too repetitive. Besides the story for the second one is a joke. Its Halo II but umm theres no Halo???? I mean the videos I have seen were on earth fighting.

But back to the point. I did say one of the most anticipated, not the most
