I am using an AMD 2500 (1.8Ghz) with ATI9800Pro - and everything is on
SuperHigh. But when ya read the Video card reviews of the X800 and
9800s using FarCry and gettings 30~40fps with AMD64s and P4-EEs, ya
know we're in the 20s!

Well, sometimes a bit lower :( Sometimes a bit faster :), Realtime
shadows; turning that down helped FR's some, not as much as expected
tho.
Agreed... The only game that looks better is HL2... ;)

Playing such games on anything short of a 9800 or 5950 card means your
losing out in effects.

DX9 card is all that's needed to *see* the goodies, gotta have the top
end card to see it all smoothly :) but it's those goodies that make
objects and characters in the game look so real, give the scene the
perception of real depth.
Any which way you want to look at Far Cry and 9800 Pro, I'm *impressed*!

a negative way. The police or SS are called, people threaten to kill you.
(What country is this again?)



Thanks for the input about 2004 compared to 2003, but your above comment is
untrue and way out of line.

What is untrue? Funny, people get death threats when they talk about
der Bush. Read a newspaper, watch the news. Look it up.

Remember: In the USA - it is dangeroud to draw or write about Heir Bush in a negative way. The police or SS are called, people threaten to kill you. (What country is this again?)

- 15yr old boy in Washington was disciplined for drawing such images.
- White House blows cover of an undercover agent because her husband said there were no WMD (before the USA started the war) - her job was finding terrorist. (This makes sense?)
God bless the land of the free. Where you can burn the Constitution... Ashcroft does it every day.

Perhaps you should follow your own advice, I mean about using newspapers and
perhaps the Internet for info.
When is the last time you ever went out of your way to make someone's day
better?
