I don't know the specifics of my mouse, but it's an optical logitech, and it's the best mouse i've ever used, i'd definitely get another...

i didn't even know optical mouses had a measured sensitivity level

for the love of our non-existent god, could my country get any lamer, first, the entire internet censorship b.s rumour from the other day, and now the childish classification board have refused another game...

but like i have said, if they ban it, i'll simply order it from the u.s, i'm more than happy to give my money to a country that actually likes to make money

p.s wtf is up with american spelling, i'm getting stupider by the minute with american spell check tryin...

the i5's only allow 2* 8pci express lanes per card when using 2 gpu's, so getting an i5 would gimp your gaming rigs longevity, even with current dual gpu's like gtx295 or 4870x2, or sli or crossfire setups lose performance on i5 rigs, and it's not just the p55 motherboards that limit it, the inbuild pci-e controller in the i5's does,

so i5 is a great budget option to rival cpu performance of the i7's....when you have 1 gpu

then next series of cards will be be cut of...

that rancor looks like it has unrealengine-itis, and yes i know the game doesn't unreal engine

it's been reported for a long time that it was really bad, i believe both ati and nvidia are looking at swapping to another manufacturer (global foundries), or maybe ati has already

"We can only confirm that GT300 is not a GT200 in 40nm with DirectX 11 support. It’s a brand new chip that was designed almost entirely from the ground up."

well that makes me happy right there, all the negative rumours about poor yields, late arrival of the new cards, and rumours about the possibility of poor performance relative to ati had me worried..but all is well with the world once more, and we can dream of a world in which crysis lays in a smoldering heap

here's some console sale's figures

nintendo are the only console maker that has profited, check the link

besides the billion dollars sony spent developing the cell, they've lost almost a billion again since it's release, and microsoft has lost money on the 360 every year, again stats in the link

...

that's funny because pc still has far more exclusive games than ps3 and 360 combined...i would tend to think that means that there is still alot of money to be made. when starcraft 2 and diablo 3 make 500 million dollars each, i'll accept your apology

12 million sold each ( which they will achieve @$50 a game = 600 million), 1.2 billion for 2 games.....

i think you'll find that pc has come further since the time of the ps3/360's inception even with the hardware variances which you claim to be a hindrance. F.E.A.R ( the first game) was released around the same time and pc games have become so much more advanced since then, the obvious games : crysis, crysis warhead aside, Farcry 2 , dead space and many other multiplats are graphically superior and can run at higher frame rates and better graphical fidelity, on reasonably weak hardware.

"they just bling up their cases"

you'll have to tell me where i can buy these magic rhinestones that somehow make my pc run faster, and here i was thinking that people upgraded the actual components of their pc *facepalm*

something tells me that these are either fake........or just don't make sense, gtx295sli only gains about 5 frames, and i know they scale better than that, the 5870 scales as badly as well if these bench marks are anything to go off

@GIJeff

that was my only thought too, maybe their using a p55 motherboards with only 8 pci-e lanes per card, it wouldn't be the first time i've seen reviewers do something stupid like that, this series of cards will really get everything ...

6040d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

hmm that is a decent gain, but when the gt300 comes out it had better be more than a 50% improvement, seriously, from 30frames average in crysis warhead on very high (and that's in dx9 mode) to 45, and still not have any antialiasing...that's just weak, especially seeing as both cards will cost $500aus +

...we must wait my precious....soon we will know

all he's tried to do since getting in is sell off all the infrastructure to make up for the 87 billion surpluss he blew on nothing and the massive debt we are now in, if you look at history it's not hard to see that every labor government has put australia in debt, and i mean every time... by alot. Just when the dollar was going strong and we had a massive tax surplus all the dumbasses believed the labor campaign because they spent so much money on propaganda ( whereas the liberals weren't so...

if they drop in price i'll buy one straight away, i hope it doesn't look as bad as my ps2 does on my hdtv though, i know it doesn't have hdmi and only outputs at 480p, but when i used to own one i didn't have my new tv, but it looked pretty damn sweet on my sdtv, pokemon battle revolution ftw

all i need is a controller or a keyboard and mouse, all the gimmicky motion control etc is only taking the focus away from the the gameplay, and it focuses more on the interface
