Nice one stone fox, I clearly am a geek as I'm using two 8600GTS's in SLI mode, on an Abit Fatality motherboard with a seriously overclocked Core Two Duo processor and Ballistix ram. Again all for Crysis!!!

OK I need a surf and quick lol!

What CPU are you running?

My GTS doesn't do that great at the moment, i've got a crappy old XP3500+ processor on the go at the moment

I'm upgrading to a quad core at the end of the month so we'll see how it goes then!

Regardless, UT2003 runs sweet - and i love it

Have you played it yet?

The moment when you die through sheer system drag... LAG SLAG!

Joe, proc = X2 3800 OC @ 2.4ghz x 2

And whoever was talking about the 7800GT, DON'T DO IT! Buy an 8 series card even if it's the 8600GT, but you'd be better of waiting, the 9 series is out soon and that'll force prices of the 8's down, making a dx10 card affordable.

The Strat is a hybrid of American/Japan Fender goodies and the V is an early '80s Tokai copy of a '59 Gibbo; total tonemonster!! :twisted:
