same here, 4850 turned out to be about as fast as the 9800gtx while consuming less power and being a lot cheaper...

let's just carry on, nothing happened.
Dimex: Do you have problems while playing in single player mode?
Do you have the problem only on blackwood or also somewhere else?

sli is a way to put 2 graphics cards into your rig, they communicate with each other and you get about 30% more speed out of the system. Personally I find that useless, since every month there are new cards coming out that beat expensive sli systems...

Good question that is.
Do you get this error on other tracks or other cars in single player mode? For example FZ5 at South City Singleplayer?

Hey!
IMO you can choose whichever processor, I've gone with an intel c2d 6550. It is more expensive (also the mainboard since the memory controllers sit on that) but it has lower heat production and uses less energy. Also the intel has much more 2nd level cache, this seems to help when it comes to lfs fps... But since I don't know what it exactly does I better keep my trap shut about that...
2gigs of Ram are plenty, should be alright with anything you run.
I'd also go with xp though, works fine here, no power-hungry vista eye-candy needed.
You definately can scale down the psu, 550 watts are something for sli systems. I run a 450, max power consumption (c2d6550, 2600xt, 2hds, wheel, speakers) is about 170W!! Look for a good and silent 400-450 instead.
Case and Mainboard would be a bit too much for my needs... why take an sli board when you don't use it? I don't know about what's the best chipset for AM2 boards, maybe someone else can help out with that.
I've taken a cheapass sharkoon rebel9 tower... keeps the dust out and once you've installed everything it's nice and cool. Tape the unneccessary holes and the airstream is decent (tempsload: 35°C, idle: 28).
Graphicwise I've got a good hint: Ati 4850. This one is a blast, uses 106W max, costs about 150-160€ (alternate.de) and is about as fast as the nvidia 9800gtx!!! I wonder why noone has seen this thing yet...
hope I could help a bit.

shut up with this stupid discussion already! I really can't hear it anymore! Winters are less snowy, we've got quite nice hailstorms going on a few times every year, summers are stupidly hot for a too long time. fact. I don't f***ing care who's fault it is and who throws arguments at the other guy, just to be the last one to tell ridiculously sad facts that have nothing to do with anything. You're pissing me off with your half knowledge and arguments based on lies and wrong conspiracy theories, sorry.
Phew...calm down, think about what you wanted to write....
I quite like the fact you're "going green", Becky. So when are you planning to marry Jackg? :-)
I sold (rolled) my car about 5 years ago, since then I had to move twice and bought two bicycles. I hate public transport, so I always had the choice either to walk or take the bike.
This is the one I use for driving to uni each day, during summertime with slicks, nobbly tyres and fenders for winter time.
This is "Bolle", made for rougher grounds. Usually I take this one for tours with my girlfriend. Pretty handy here, near the alps.
I really love riding bikes. Though being somewhat exhausted after a trip I feel a bit better (once the pain has gone :-)), and if I'm stressed by the idiots at work/uni/whatever, I just kick the frustration away. This way I can go a bit faster, I can't get fined and the hormons calm down a bit. around the outer city rings I'm a bit slower than the cars, the nearer I get to the center, the faster I can go. Sure you always have to be very careful concerning cars, buses and pedestrians, but at least I don't have the smell and humidity in public transport, I don't have to sit in a hot car when it's warm outside, I don't have to care about fuel prices, ice on the windows, .................
Lowest temperature I hop on the bike is -15°C though, if it drops below that I'd need to wear my salopettes, and those would be ruined by the chain ring.
So if you can get a decent bike, take a good saddle as well (important especially for a woman, hint:brooks b17) and scrap the moped, you might be faster than those pimply kids on their tuned plastic scooters in no time!

In real life there is a switch somewhere between the brake pedal and the main cylinder. You touch the brake and from a certain point your brake lights are being switched on. In the old Mini I could brake fairly hard (compared to your screenie) until the switch was shut and the lights turned on.
So please keep calm, and if you've got no RL experience don't tell us that something needs a fix.

let's keep on thinking about different cheats F1 teams could use... inflating their tyres with compressed HOT air, brooding like a hen (imagine 4 big guys sitting on the tyres), "accidentally" setting the car on fire real quick, doing topfuel-like burnouts, first with front- then rear wheels on the rear axle,...
And: They could put some mechanics on the grandstands. They would have to follow the car's way and focus sunlight on the tyres while it's driving, using little beauty mirrors!!!

Hehe, this is actually a nice idea. My second xfg skin was a citroen :-)
Also your skins might not be perfect, but I like the clean racing style of them! At least no shopping lists on the sides, no mirrored decal sets, no dorifto!
I remember a porsche GT2 wearing the KTM logo once, wanna do cycle brands too? There were/are many old (eastern) german, english and russian manufacturers, maybe MZ, Java, Puch, NSU and so on.
keep 'em coming I say!!

1. My girlfriend is more important than anything else in the world
2. I've seen every episode of the fall guy at least once
3. the flat can be shite as long as the view outside is great
4. I've rolled a mini once. shame on me
5. I'm maybe the slowest lfs driver
6. I've got at least 100 favourite songs, depends on the situation. I can play/rewind/ffwd those songs in my head, then when I switch on the mp3-player I find out I've really "thought" the song in the right tone height (whatever you call it)
7. 16 years ago I was the singer of a Guns n' Roses cover band (shame again)
8. I hate wrestling, boxing and the like
9. I've got a strange kind of memory filter... I never forget unimportant stuff noone cares about
10. When I was 7 a friend asked me which soccer team I like best, fc bayern or vfb stuttgart. I said stuttgart and have been called a fan for years, although I've never been interested in that sport at all.

wow, I really love drift city! The physics are up to date and far more realistic than lfs! It almost seems as realistic as nfs:u!
if it costs under 80€, I'll buy it
goodbye, lfs girls!

Hardly I guess ;-)
As PAracer asked before, what will you need it for?
gaming, watching videos, making movies, ...........
If you just want to play games you might not need a quad core at all.
if you want to make movies, 2gig+ of ram are useful.
If you like to simply have a better computer than the other guy without even knowing anything, then you might have to invest 2500$ and get a fully modded watercooled dual quad core processor with 8gigs of ram, 8800sli and a flashy green light.
