I have a 9600 np and running it at low settings. I might go pick up a sapphire 9800 pro for $176 at ncix. I know the 6600 is newer and better but from what I read the difference isn't that big.
If you are buying a new video card, go straight to 6600GT. You can overclock it to 6800 (none GT) performance.

They called you?

I got pre-order and nobody gave me no stinking phone call....but then again it's the Metrotown branch and they lick ass when it comes to customer service.

I stood in line for 30 mins waiting and all I wanted to do was get my fucken game! There was a line of 6 people and only 2 CSRs working there.

Wow, the server was pretty much filled with all 64 players tonight! Mostly guys from a clan called PDX

Then this happened:



I'll try to find out wtf going on ; that is just unacceptable.

I have to play the game on my laptop, because it won't run longer than 10 mins on my desktop before crashing

I'm running it off my Dell 6000 and it's fine.

Does that mean those guys were hacking and that's why "Punkbuster" is in those commands?

Is this the retail dvd/cd version or a pirated copy?

I find that sometimes my game just freezes on me during the online server menu. I can still hear the music and my mouse can still move around but when I click nothing responds.

Luckily mine hasn't been crashing yet (touch wood), but I'm getting aweful lag spikes. Frame rates are good, it's just choppy.

I find single player isn't as fun as multiplayer...AI just doesn't follow orders as well as real life players

We should start up a revscene clan

Yup. Be sure to update your drivers though. My desktop crashes all the time, but my laptop plays it no problem.

Luckily my laptop is more powerful than most peoples' desktops

Hmm... I read just forumplanet.com and it seems a lot of people have that problem too, regardless of the video card (ie. X800, 6800).

Btw, it's not the ping or framerate, they're just occasional lag spikes (even with like a 60 ping or lower).

Someone suggested manually updating PB... wonder if that will help.

Yes ALL THE TIME. Although not on my server, oddly enough. Then again, my server has that little problem where it just kicks EVERYONE off at once
