QUOTE(darkskies @ Jul 20 2010, 11:26 PM) really had a headache choosing gpu... Seems GTX480 sounded like a jet when full load and had extreme temp of 95 C... Wanted to get 5970 but ff14.. doesn't seems to favor ati drivers.. anyone had any recommendation? dont worry it will be good, ATI is ok too. some guy who had 5970 in beta says pretty much nothing up, it seems that they have already fix the FPS thinggie for ATI users. >:D but im thinking of getting GTX480 as well, is been too long for me as a ATI user.. want to have some sort of a change sometime

It's scary. Nvidia really lose badly in terms of temp, power consumption. Though they are more advance in technology but they are losing towards ati.. Ati full load time could only top 81 C. in idle it's only 35 C.. Due to current beta phase i believe when officially launch it shud fully support both. But i might drop 480 for 5970.. Nvidia is crazy to market such kind of high temp gpu =.=..

ya i'm reading sli 460... it's alot cooler and lesser power consumption. It's more targeted for 1920x1200. If powering more then that resolution then 480 still triump over it. But definitely i do not want 480..... expensive and hot..
@azwart i'm waiting for asus 460gtx 1gb gddr5. I think have not released yet.

QUOTE(darkskies @ Jul 20 2010, 04:59 PM) Actually i suggest setting up a player list with Messenger contacts on it. It would be more convenient for players to msg each other rather doing msg here >.<. I dont use messenger as I find it a hassle while MMOing. I dont like the way it "pops" up in front of ya when you're doing other stuff. You can get my mobile number to SMS me.

 Still I find it better to communicate via SMS. Speaking of which, how many of us here are playing together and how many are playing with their ex-LS mates?

For in-game communication, Ventrilo/Team Speak
For out-of-game communication, mobile phone is preferred.

cpu overclocking dont help much, any quad core will run it fine since it runs up to 4 threads.
im running gtx480 its hot with reference cooler, but since i changed to icy vision it doesnt give me that much of a problem nowdays.

A couple of us here are ex-linkmembers. Actually msn is juz a temp solution. Because on the date it's launch we might wana confirm which server to join together. Unless u guys are not around ur pc and u still running an old school nokia.
