I have a 6200 with no cooling or overclocking, and can run UT3 fine. Just adjust for low end settings
the trouble then i suppose must be the motherboard (its an ECS) thanks for the input the problem i am having is that the menu screen freezes after about ten seconds into the game being loaded up (not mission, the actual game) do you have the piplines enabled? (the 8 pipeline mod?) thanks
Dell dimension 4600c, with Pentium 4 processor. I got 2 gigs of DDR ram, so i guess that helps. Dont use any mods for UT3. Im guessing your mobo is what is crashing your game
thanks, same here (2gigs) but the dumb mobo is an ECS 915p-a v1.2a i dont know if you have been lured into this kind of deal by frys before but thats how they get rid of these mobos. They make a "combo" deal and you have to buy the mobo in order to get the cpu at the "amazing" price...
thats my backup machine so i never really played any games on it My primary rig: ASUS Striker Extreme Intel Core 2 Duo e6300 1.86 ghz (overclocked to 3ghz) 4 gigs DDR2 PC6400 800 mz ram GeForce 8800 GTS SLI this computer can run any game (crysis, ut3, halo2, etc) if you want, i can run some more games on the secondary computer? please specify the game to test and i will post the results -Thanks for the help
Wow, your primary is beastly. It must be heaven playing Crysis on there. Can your secondary run Bioshock/Call of duty 4?
lol, thanks fot the beast comment althought it took me 2 years to save up for it, in the end it was worth it... i will try to run those games, in 4-5 hours i will post results... do you know of any way to fix the computer up? i really need some lan gaming...
