What's Your Current Pc System ?

[kenji_1989]

Aw sige na tol ako nga mas nakakhiya rig q e....P4 2.66 LGA and in fairness, ANG PANGIT NIYA SA GAMING. Kaya nga palit ako sa Socket 754 na 2.0Ghz e para mas mabilis.

[TACKAPUSHA]

sa kin socket 478 pa. pero ok naman sa games like godfather, oblivion heroes 5, da vinci code. luma na nga aking rig...

[cheesekeso2004]

@cheesekeso

 

oh laganap yung ganun? Pano ba malalaman kung geniune AMD CPU na bibilhin ko?

 

Kainggit naman ng rig ng iba diyan, gusto ko na talaga idispatsa tong LGA775 na P4 ko. Badtrip.. Talo ako ata ng Athlon XP e .

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Well, Conroe is about to be released So just stick with that mobo for now Oh yeah, LGA775 is faster than XP

 

Well, to be honest, the only way I think that would prove that yours is a bnew unit is to see if the box is sealed or not (Esp with bundled rigs ) When they are assembling your pc, keep an eye on the items they're putting into your pc

[TasmanianDevil]

I finally got my rig together yesterday. It has been a long time since I last assembled one (1999), and my PC's after that were outright bundled purchases. So I was a bit lost at the start.

 

Here are the essentials:

 

AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core 4200+

MSI K8N Diamond plus w/ Nforce 4 SLI x16

MSI SLI-Geforce 7900GT 256 MB

2GB DDR PC400

2 WD Caviar SE 16 - 250GB each 300MB/s 16MB cache 7200rpm in SATA-RAID 0

Asus DVD-RAM/ROM drive and burner

Creative X-Fi Platinum soundcard

Logitech Z-5450 5.1 speakers

Sennheiser PC-160 headset

Samsung 215tw 21" widescreen LCD

Cool Master Centurion ATX Mid tower case

Xion 600w SLI power supply

Logitech wireless keyboard and wireless optical mouse

 

F.E.A.R. looks awesome at maxed out settings with 99% frame rates above 35, maximum frames at 85. Native resolution is 1680x1050. Same performance with Far Cry.

 

DVD playback is excellent and with THX surround.

 

Plus I hooked up my HDTV cable box to the monitor too.

 

I think i need a bigger monitor, but 21" will do for now. Besides it's only me who uses this. The rest of my family goes to the living room. Suddenly I feel like a kid with a new toy!

[TasmanianDevil]

^^ Will try to post some pics of the setup and/or screens and screenshots next time.

Go for 1gb (2x512mb) if you can Since 1gb is already nearly a minimum requirement on most programs

[TasmanianDevil]

Thanks guys.

 

Words are not enough to describe the gaming experience I get with this setup. Simply, I am immersed in the game itself unlike anytime before. Add to that games that are masterfully designed to exploit this technology. The result is truly amazing. I tried the factory set drivers but currently am using Nvidia's latest geforce beta drivers. No glitches so far but so much better performance.

 

The FPshooters really showcase audio and visuals. Man, you can see sonic waves from fragmentation grenades, dust clouds after a barrage of gunfire hitting concrete walls in FEAR,shadows are TOO real and hamper vision, sparks flying everywhere ala your favorite action movie, the vividly drawn colors in Far Cry, etc. Far cry is most visually stunning to me. But unlike FEAR, Far Cry ambiance is less realistic. It'll be a some time before all these gets old. Oblivion is a hot game now but I haven't purchased it yet. Can't give feedback on that yet but am interested in getting this game. Haven't really been an RPG fan but I'm willing to try it.

 

Can't wait for Windows Vista to be retailed. I initially tried XP Pro x64 but had too many errors so I switched back to the 32bit version. Maybe by then more developers would have re-designed their games for a 64 bit OS.

[TasmanianDevil]

One thing i noticed though, since the rear speakers of my Logitech 5450 are wireless, the wireless mouse and keyboard sometimes/often interferes with the rear audio output during gameplay. Not much, but at some points can be noticeable. The wireless rear speaker design is a good idea to create ideal 3-D positioning for surround. You can mount it anywhere without wire clutter. It's still not perfect but is something to consider for anyone who intends to acquire these speakers.

Will wait for your post on your experience with Oblivion using your current rig should you decide to try an RPG category.

Try it with Oblivion, since we have nearly the same rig Try to run Oblivion @ the max settings that you can run it Even my Oblivion is crying @ 1920x1200 w/ HDR LOL

 

Oh yeah, were you able to tweak your bios? The initial bios setting for out MSI Diamond Plus for the SLI is running @ 8x 8x SLI

Best brand for Athlon boards is DFI. It is the best motherboard especially when you are OCing because of its flexibility. But since DFI is not much seen in most sellers here , MSI is the second to it. MSI is also good also in OCing and performance as well. ASUS also perform well.

If you are getting an Athlon 64 for Socket 939, I suggest getting a MSI K8N Neo-4.

 

If you want a little cheaper board, I suggest Redfox or Gigabyte.

How do the Logitech Wireless Keyboard and Optical Mouse perform in gaming?

 

I am thinking of going wireless too.

Guys ano ba pag kakaiba ng Socket 754 and 939 sa AMD? alin na ba ngayon ang mas ginagamit? matagal na kasi ako di update sa hardwares eh...
