will this card play fear and command and conquer 3

You're going to re-install windows anyway after a hardware change like that.

 

i have 2 x 3.00 ghz processors in my pc... but its not dual core hows that work? one processor but my pc reads it as two

 

It's one CPU with tho processing cores. Not exactly two CPUs but it should give you much better performance than two single core CPUs in the same motherboard.

 

so its like having two in one right, hows that compare to a low dual core

 

More or less the same thing >.>

 

Yeah, a dual core CPU wont give you as much performance as two CPUs of the same architecture with single cores, but they are closer together so it reduced latency so it cancels out. Plus two CPU motherboards are EXPENSIVE.

 

didnt think you can have 2 cpus on one board unless they were built in

 

No they have boards like that, but I believe they are close to 700-800 dollars.

 

ouch, cheaper getting dual core, do they support 2 dual cores, that could be some immense power their, wow serious modders and gaming pc builders would want to use that if they wanted to build the ultimate machine

wow that would be awesome

 

We already have quad core CPUs.

 

fine then could it support 2 quad core cpus

 

Haha yeah that would be fun. Two of the new 9 series video cards running in SLI, with phase change cooling, overclocked to max, with two quad core CPUs. That WOULD be awesome.

 

i thought that quad cpus were only for servers as they have different sockets than pcs

 

Not so. Intels new Quad Core CPU's utilize a LGA775 socket and are compatible with "civilian" motherboards. Like this motherboard I plan to purchase.

 

nice, not too expensive either hmm do they take paypal newegg? i might be able to save a bundle than crappy ebuyer

 

If you are in the UK you will not be able to buy from Newegg as they don't deliver outside the US. Tough luck

 

damn that sucks

 

Sorry this is a bit OT but my system runs C&C 3 fine, not sure of the frame rate and I only run at 1280x1024 (no AA and about mid-range graphics settings) but its good enough in my opinion.

The system requirements can be found here:
http://www.commandconquer3.com/cnc3_system_requirements.html

Graphics wise only a 32MB card is needed, although they recommend a 64MB or higher.

My system specs are:
Gigabyte K8NS-Ultra-939
AMD 3200+
1GB DDR 800 (PC 3200) Kingston RAM
2x 74GB Raptors in RAID 0
Gigabyte 6800 GT
Antec 430W PSU

Again, sorry for the slight OT.

Peace

 

nice system, how much that cost ya

 

Thank you, I got it three years ago this December from my parents. I think they said it was just a bit over $2000.

I put one together for a little under $1500 that i'm gonna purchase pretty soon (because I don't need a monitor, keyboard, mouse or speakers) I can PM ya the list if you want.

Peace
