Added on November 18, 2007, 6:49 pmI got it few days back, but NFS ProStreet is nothing like NFS Underground, Most Wanted or Carbon. NFS ProStreet is all about Professional Driving similar to Gran Turismo. I regret buying it, boo... NFS ProStreet gameplay suck only graphics nice.

not good to be rude ma...LOL....mouse left button is use to play game.wahaha

i think better googled for the information 1st as his question can easily answered on the manufacturer webside.

Since when after playing games the left mouse button became rude? lol...

Anyways, is good to learn the habit of googling. Actually that whats searching engine were made for.

By then, just tried 20mins ProStreet. Seems not bad.. I like the new game play style. Thats wad skill called.

Soon.slowly buying each part one by one. prolly getting the proc and graphic card only next year so by then hopefully i can get the Penryn and G92 8800GTS or smth.haha

so,this is first item.

@pengster, nice PSU there. planning for 8800GTS? 650W was over kill
imo, if not consider kaw-kaw OC with Penryn.

Thanks. yeah 8 series and maybe quad Penryn when it reaches here next year.or just dual if no budget. and yeah,i plan to oc all the way.lol

Thank you for the reply.I did search for those motherboard but I am not very sure until someone reply that had tested and running those motherboard.

I would like to ask ,between both AS rock and MSI brand , which one is long lasting ? somehow Asrock only provide 1 year warranty while MSI 3 years.I am not sure which one I should get regarding with both build quality .

Its depend on ur choice. I had used the AsRock board before. Well.. Not bad. Kinda stable. Provided that ur not into overclocking. Overall the board is doing quite well. Just the draw back for AsRock board is it only comes with 2 ram dimm. Max ram only can support to 2GB. Other then that, all is good. I give 8.5/10 for this board.

As for MSI, i not really sure about that. Never use it before.. But is a branded board. I believe it should have its own standard. If ur considering warranty wise, then u may get this mobo.

Haha.he's goign to change next year.We will see next year whether he let go his 6800GS or not.

Mine tighest can run on 2.5-3-3-5 with current 229FSB .But seems like my RAM doesn't care about this 2.5-3-3-5 and 3-4-4-8.

2fylon,Asrock is the subsidary company from Asus.tha't why their mobo are stable.

long live asus

@pengster
nice psu you got there... going for sli setup ?

nfs:prostreet... hope the ps2 version will be as good as the pc version as my comp cannot even run nfs:carbon at medium settings

also Penryn quad will cost a bomb and Penryn dual going to cost a dynamite

must... must... must... resist the dark force

im currently on a MSI board and i prefer that than an Asrock mobo cause im into overclocking.was able to push my 2.4 till 2.88 Ghz last time on stock everything last time. (that time dont dare to play with the volts yet ><)

nah no money to go for SLi.maybe just a 8800GT/GTS G92. slowly slowly getting part by part.by the time i finish building my new rig it'll be next year already

@raymond5105
yeah im gonna sell of my s478 rig once i complete my new rig.but i think im gonna do COD only as im afraid of postage and all the hassle. haha

@Ray
Yea.. Used AsRock before. Not bad, kinda solid for the performance. Recommended for normal usage. I used to keep 1 as my backup board actualy.

By then, i tried the ProStreet dy, atleast with my 68GT i can have mid high setting. But the game is damn hard to play. Skilled driver needed. Overall.. I like it!

@fylon,solute you your 6800GT can play at medium settings.what resolution are you using now?

1024*768 with mid high setting. Still able to run at 4x AA. Just will having some lagging if got few cars cornering together. Other then that.. Its smooth!

Guys ... try to reach 4GHz with 5:4 divider isn't as easy as i thought .. try with this setting :

Vcore : 1.5V
Vdimm : 2.75V
Vagp : 1.6V
Ram timing : 3-4-4-8

Results with 5:4 divider - Windows restart
Result with 1:1 divider - Windows can start normally

I'm wondering why that 5:4 divider can't boot normally ....

@fylon
have u ever try 4:5 divider ? coz ur ram have plenty room to oc, i think u should give a try ... if ur's set to FSB = 250MHz ... ur proc gonna run at 4GHz and ram at 312MHz ...

THis is strange,i think maybe your RAM doesn't like loose timing at low frequency.

or maybe i should tighten the timing or leave it to default setting ?
