Pls give ur recommendation for the specs for a Gaming PC.

Pls vote also for ur dream Gaming PC and state ur reason.


Thank you

Highly recommend Intel Quad with nVidia GPU

y u ask stupid question

core 2 quad + nv ftw!...

others ans liao...

wat r u confused?

Then y u give stupid answer

Anyway it is just a poll....

I have used Intel processor for 13 years so I am going with Intel Quad Core with ATI.You can get more power by OC the Quad Core.

Quad with nVidia SLI

The price factor, Intel Quad much more expensive than AMD X2

The poll is too general. Anyway, I vote for Q6600 G0 stepping with 8800 Ultra SLI....

q6600 got many version ?
sell in the shop de all same or how?

for the latest technology, of course la intel quad with nvidia gpu..haih..

Yup. For the Q6600, don't get the B3 stepping. Get the G0 stepping. Better thermal profile and a great overclocker.

bro kmarc,now i using dual core only....

anyway,i recommend Quad with nVidia since nVidia giving more in game FPS.

i'd choose both

i will say Quad Core with ATI Crossfire.

So sorry for your loss. Dual core also acceptable ma. I thought you have lots of high-end rigs?

i will go for quad with nvidia gpu

Ace rig get rob d.

Choose wut is right for ur budget..

AMD fans all gone?

not all gone , but now no new things yet ( consumer market , still K8 )

aiyo
the poll so bias
everyone knows x2 now all suck

QX6850 with 8800 Ultra SLI FTW!!!

This post has been edited by Ryo: Sep 28 2007, 06:21 AM

wallau most rate at quat nvidia....
i chose quat with ati

quat? i think it should be quad
how come the poll doesn't show AMD latest offering? btw their latest offering Barcelona or whatever they call it performance how?

Quad QX6850 with Quad Sli 8800GTX Ultra.

but it's the fact that the c2d now is more powerful than amd..isn't it?

The thread said " What are the specs u recommend for a Gaming PC? Vote for ur dream Gaming PC"

So it mean something I would dream off! If I got the money for it, I would get all the same specs as IANHO gaming rig.

penryn n cross fired ftw

like the 1 used by Kinc to break 3 world records?

Nvidia all the way.

intel quad core + 8800 Ultra SLi

me thinks this thread is worthless.

giving you guys some chance to redeem it. cos really, even the options on the poll seem ridiculous.

Intel Quad with ATi !

This post has been edited by riku2replica: Sep 28 2007, 03:17 PM

agreed... not every1 can afford quad core... yet...

i've built and recommend this:

Intel Celeron 420
Abit IN9 32X Max
Mushkin 1GB DDR800 x 2
80GB HDD
Forsa 8600GT
Asus SATA DVD burner
normal casing
Topower 600W PSU

Best bang for the buck...

yaya
ntah hape hape punya thread
all ppl know edi
the best proc n gc

Thks for the comment.

This poll is not to evaluate the objective view of hardware expert in relation to the above mentioned product.

However, it is more of obtaining the subjective view of pc gaming user (expert or casual) in their opinion of what they thought was their subjective dream machine (whether financial factor is to be taken into account).

The last 2 options in the poll IF deem "ridiculous" by you, then you might owe an apology to those ppl who "intentional" or "non-intentional" ticked that options.

aiyo if u wan say Dream gaming pc like , u buy all those most expensive hardware in the market then tat will b the most impressive gaming gear for u lol
example the most expensive proccessor
the most expensive GC
the most expensiv mobo
if got money sure can get anything u like

Celeron? are you out of ur mind? get something better la haha

being subjective is one thing but being too general makes the poll pointless.

A highly recommended X2 could be the X2 3800+ Brisbane. and what happened to Intel dual-cores? In some cases, they still do better than quads.

ATI gpu vs nVidia GPU? again ATI GPU could be as low as the HD2400 and as high as HD2900. nVidia 7200 to 8800U



neh. not necessary, whoever casted votes probably did it for fun, or don't realize the poll is going no where, or just vote to view the results.

this is my second visit and I've not need any posts that make this thread worth continuing. will check again later.

Point taken. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yet again, ppl would usually "by common sense/by default" choose the highest spec in their "dream Gaming PC".
Who would compare a ATI 9550 with a nVidia 8600 in this poll?

Would u?

Anyway, c'mon it is just a poll. Try to get over it.

Intel Quad Core with ATI 2900XT.

i said best bang for the buck... u can come see in my shop tat spec hit 5k+ in 3dmark06... good enough for bioshock... y waste a few hundred bucks...? then can wait for dual/quad core celeron... lol...

oh yeah... u can refer to expantyhoesthief... he saw it and experienced it...

It's a really general poll u know. I voted for QuadCore and nvidia GPU coz it's my DREAM PC. Will never have money to buy it though unless i buy todays high end pc component at year 2010.

sishh just realise how many ppl are dumb in recommending quad cpu

, eh... just notice your avatar, is that your Ultra + HR-03 Plus

lolx......why dun u put intel octal....dumb question...

meh. me still thinks that Intel Dual-Core series should be in a poll if it was to be a general poll.

if like what u say, then everyone should just vote the Intel Quad extreme edition with 8800 Ultra SLI'ed, that's the current highest end specs, then this defeat the purpose of this poll, when people say recommend, it's tied to a budget, and the needs of that person. If remove the budget as a control variable, everyone who game with their PC would surely opt for the best possible

just like the definition of economic studies, human have unlimited wants, but there's always the scarcity in the resources

Got a hypothetical question to ask.

If I'm not mistaken, AMD Athlon 64 X2 consists dual core processors with 64 bit chip each
and
Intel Duo 2 Core consists of dual core processors with 32 bit chip each and so forth for quad core.

Which of these is hypothetically have a higher processor speed?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But as u see in this poll, not every ppl voted for intel quad. There are still many AMD fans there.

Btw, Intel Quad extreme edition is not included in this poll (just like what u r try to say beyong the budget)

This post has been edited by CityLife: Oct 2 2007, 05:50 PM

lol what do you mean by 32-bit for each core?

have u even grasp the idea of the 32 bit vs 64 bit thingy

celeron single core already enough to beat the crap outta AMD X2 4200 and below...

it is quite clear winner lol..
a quadcore with physic 8800ultra, hahah..
no such thing lol..

i just wonder did 8800ultra/sli(2) still pwns 2900xt/physics(3)?

care to give some links/facts to support ur comments here??

edit: if u r referring to benchmark like superPI etc, that's only benchmark. in real gaming, X2 still pawns celeron single core la.

Quad Core with Nvidia GPU!

Kindly educate...

i LOL'ed


new generation Celeron i see


do not under estimate teh powder of new generation Celeron


Mr Intel Duo 2 Core

Quad Core with NVidia 8800 GTX above..... I can only dream for this kind of spec.....

intel Quad Extreme + Quad CROSSFIRE 2950XTX (future)

haih... ignorant fool... will give ya a stonger proof next time when i free... i tested it personally as expantyhosethief is the only 1 who felt "y do i need a dual/quad core when single core can do the job..." upon seeing the rig i built for my boss fren...

seems like everyone prefer nvdia

heh

Of course Nvidia is good

aiyaa...don't misjudge others a fools as u will make urself a very stubborn fools.... just wanna info etc. that's y we got this thread alright??sharing info...

I have no idea why this Q&A Topic is here masquerading as a Hardware topic.. Silly polls.

Still, to help feed the trolls, as long as my games run at native res and maxed out details @ 60fps who cares what you have in your system. The rest of your cash then goes towards blinging out the system.

Nvidia is good....nvidia suppoter here!

Actually Gaming in PC does not need to be expensive. This is what most of people made their mistake. If you want to game better buy PS3 for RM2500 or X360 for less than RM2000. I'm not a fan of console but this is fact. The last time i bought was GameBoy Advance hand held console. Actually people can build a good enough gaming PC for the price of X360 or PS3. You did not need Rm2500 card to play latest game, the only reason of the super expensive card is because of the resolutions.

Most of the PC Gamers played their game depending on their LCD native resolution or 1280*1024 at best. The best graphic card money can buy for now will be the 8800GTS 320MB or 2900XT. 7900GS or X1950Pro is no slouch either. They can play most games without DX10 (bet least people do because of Vista crap) with no problem at all at high settings. So Quad Core CPU is way too much, for now Core2 6420 or 6600 is good enough for gaming PC.

I have no respect a person who bought super expensive PC then buy/downloaded pirated copy of their game or even their OS/applications claiming that games were expensive.

lol...... if hav money.... buy all most expensive hardware = de best ....
gaming rig not mean only for gaming....
gaming rig mean for entertainment urself how?
multi tasking is normal in a gaming rig eg... Gaming + music + chatting program.... XD... so sound also important XD.... summore most of de ppl also will dream hav a very very big LCD to play game XD

If would certainly nice to able to play ur favorite game with the capacity of multitasking.

Highly recommend Intel Quad with ATI GPU cause have never try ati graphic card before want to try crossfire with it

really gaming cud be x2
cuz u can have the most powerful graphics card
and get a mediocre 6000+ black edition
ur game will still blaze
if u get quad, sumtime u wont see any much difference cuz 60fps and above is already what ur eyes wanna se

of course AMD X2 with nVidia GPU

The reason people buy expensive GPU because of these card can handle high settings in ultra high resolution. These resolution only applied for LCD sized 22" above or using their super expensive 1080p TV or projectors. You see where these leads, it goes to the rich people (minority) like mr.lonely. Only these people can afford these cards, for the majority of people they bought the mid-high range card than can handle high settings in res below 1280 resolution. That's why 8800GTS 320 was so popular.

Intel quad with Nvidia or ATI GPU also can ^^ as long as i get it for free kakaka..

actually Pentium Dual Core E2160 is fair enough d... bout the pirated stuff is because we don buy only 1 game... we buy like 5 games per week on everage... imagine how much u gonna spend...? and those hardware usually last 2-3 years... so don go anti-pirated user...

u can dream on... tat's juz 2 stupid...

believe it or not... 8800GTS was popular becuz some ppl "think" tat they need 8800 juz to run Vista... cuz they thought it will be in full 3D... and i showed them tat Intel GMA 950 already good enough for tat cuz Vista got 2D mode also...
becuz magazines write tat this card is a good budget card for Vista...

What is the GPU u would recommend for RTS?

GPU? I think it depends on your need. Nvidia would the good choice because many manufacturer nowadays collaborate with Nvidia in gaming.

8800GTS and above perhaps?

Price still steep......
Will wait for the price to drop
& change the whole rig as well.

If ur playing high def games,i think it's appropiate to have a good processor to match up with the GTS,especially if ur using 19 inch LCD and above..

this thread still open ka?
gaming ony?just get ps2/ps3
high end game no need to upgrade
save money

best gaming pc no nid vote one, must be most expensive one.
and AMD x2 is very stupid option indeed, how can it beat even core2duo? Better put apple G5 processor, and apple fanboys will come to vote it as best gaming pc.

Its all down to option and availability. If really there is a pirated hardware that at least 10 times cheaper ..... well this might happen

X2 hampeh sgt ker bro.?aiyoyo..luckily i didn't change my platform

8500GT good enough d... or 7600GS also can... to save money...
RTS la brother... Real-Time Strategy... where got RTS tat require tat...?

Added on October 7, 2007, 10:38 pmi don agree on the most expensive 1 though... try gaming wif Intel Xeon proc + nVidia Tesla...

X2 memang sampah if compare to Intel Core architecture...

This post has been edited by t3chn0m4nc3r: Oct 7 2007, 10:39 PM

but all of us also know intel core2duo beat amd x2 flat right?
amd x2 shouldnt be in the list at all.


This post has been edited by ychwang: Oct 8 2007, 12:46 AM

is it "world of conflict" is RTS based game??is yess, then 8500gt or 7600gs is not enough la since 8800ultra already got average 30fps only done by guru3d. (of course all features enabled)

This post has been edited by rainingzero: Oct 7 2007, 11:58 PM

7600gs?7600gt?8500gt?aiyoyo..those card are acceptable for last few years game..for now on games..huh!
even scary.even 8800ultra need to push its limit lorr....crysis..........dunno what happen

I think 8500 series graphic card unsupported in WIC. Dunno why, but i'm sure i see it right in the requirements. Maybe its just me...

Well what u said about buying consoles for the general public is very true. That's the cheapest way to game on big screens with nice gfx.

What u said about the gaming PC is not true though. Gaming at 1280x1024 is really, really unbearable. Sooooooooo small lar the screen. If we hafta game at 1280x1024 then it's much better to go the way of the console. For an unbeatable gaming experience on the PC it truly is a very deep n dark abyss for ur money to fall into. Coz to experience games like nothing else, the only way is to buy the very best hardware around and play it on the biggest monitor. There's no if or but about it. Saying that 1280 reso is good enuf is unrealistic. It's like saying the Proton saloon is a good enuf car so why do we need cars like the Maybach.

As for this poll, just take out rm30k from ur bank, go to LYP n grab all the very best hardware. Only choice u hafta make is whether u want ATi Crossfire or Nvidia SLi and u haf a Dream Rig.

Ian very high requirement wan la. for me 1680x1050 + medium details also good enough.

Added on October 8, 2007, 8:43 pm

if it Core2Duo beat X2 flat, i put them side by side you can detect or not? i doubt you can, so in fact it doesn't beat by far.

at the same price point, their performance is similar. some cases X2 actually does better.

those who used X2 (or know how to read / understand benchies) know that X2s are great processors, just people simply paint them bad just because they don't perform as good as C2Ds.

This post has been edited by goldfries: Oct 8 2007, 08:43 PM

lol i agreed, 8500GT is only an entry level GC, cant even perform well in Medal Of Honour even the legendary 7300GT DDR3 performs better.

Ya lor. All those frustrated Intel P4 netburst era fellas who suffered all the bashing for not upgrading to AMD last time now wanna revenge n step back on the AMD fellas. I had an E6300 from the day it 1st arrived in LYP too. But I didnt even bother to use it coz it didnt make any diff compared to my X2. Probably the only advantage was in decoding oni. That's y i never bothered with any other C2Ds until the Quads appeared.

AMD X2 suitable budget user for now, Price Is King not every1 can afford the luxury C2Ds C2Qs, they may look for X2 as a cheaper alternatives.

yup agreed!this intel's tactic..they seem to give a C2Duo processor highly o/c able,n ppl will mention that the Quad can o/c futher higher!but is it worth it??
