or
GeForce 7600 GS 256MB AGP
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ ... .asp?Item=N82E16814125039

System is AMD 64 3200
1gb ram
1680x1050 screen

I just don't want to spend too much money. Any others better for the price? I am only using this computer for LFS.

EDIT: Links

Shrubba

The 6800 would be a better video card then the 7600. Check out this site for comparing video cards.

Also these video cards would be faster

Oh ok, then my guess would be Video Card.

But still I would see if its possible to get a friends video card and ram just to test and see which gives you better performance.

But I think you would see better performace with upgrading to a GOOD video card 6600Gt or higher.

keep us updated,

Quote from TiJay :Restart the route, check your LAN wires are in correctly, if necessary hard-reset the router to factory settings.

Try that ^^

Then if it still does not work try connecting without Router and see if you still have the same problem or not. If you dont then it could be that the router could be on its way out.

If you still have the same problem then I would be looking at your network card. Reinstall drivers and so on.

Quote from Jonas8431 :I´d like to help me please.

I have a old pc, ist technical specifications are:

P4 1.6 GHz
256MB RAM
64MB video card (ATI)
40 GB hard drive
512 kbps connection

so ,when a race starts the lfs does pauses, you know what is I trying to say, ok, what is what I have to do? buy a:

256MB RAM= 512
or
128MB video card?

right the best thing that I have to do is buy other new pc, jajaja
but, with a few of money, thanks for your help

greets

Dont start throwing parts at a problem if you dont know 100% whats causing it.

You say when you start a new race the game will freeze/pause?? What do you have to do to get the game to run? Restart or does it just lag?

Is it possible for you to get another better videocard & even ram to test each in your system to see which one helps you more? That would be the smart thing to do then you could see what helps more instead of wasting $$

Quote from Ghostelites :Right, im building a new pc,

i need to decide wether to get AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5000+ 2.60GHz

Or Intel Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz

i just need some advice, this pc will have 2 nvidia card on Sli and 4gbs RAM

this pc will be used for pro video editing and gaming

cheers

Cpu - Currently The Intel Conroe is the faster cpu (at least for now)

But another thing, I dont think you actually need 4gb of ram, I think that may be overkill. I would say 1gb would be good enough then in a year or something if u need the extra ram add some more. but 2gb would be enough for you. even if your doing the video editing.

Also might not be worth to get 2 SLI cards now. Might be better to get a higher model SLI card then in a card when you need more power add another one which will probably be half the price by then.

Also make sure you got a good quality powersupply to handle SLI if u get it. OCZ make Very good ps's & 5 year warrenty.

You should not put your Screen Refresh rate (Hertz) higher then 80. I keep mine around 70-75. Just because the higher you go the more strain is on the monitor so then it will not last as long etc etc. So putting it at 100hertz is not very good for the monitor.

As for your problem, Download the lastest drivers for your video card from the Nvidia website. Also reinstall/update Direct X. You can also try Windows Updates.

Quote from nutty boy : 2 cars race. 1 starts at the bottom 1 at top. Disastrous.

Yes but so much fun, also then it would teach people how to avoid getting hit and all that, I think it would be really good. But it could also be bad. Oh well

Quote from Ricerguy :.I have a nice addition to this hill climb idea.
Since people say it may get boring, how about 2 pits? one at the top one at the bottom and the hill climb track could be made into a circuit where you chose to go down for the start or up.This would take away from the annoying boringness of a one way course, and probably appeal to those who like testing their cars top speed down a hill (me).Between each stage would be the pits due to the bumps and bruises due to happen on either of them just incase.

Just think of it. 2 pits, 2 start lines, one at the top one at the bottom, 2 seperate races on one track (uphill stage/Downhill stage).

Each to their own?

Also jsut to add.

1 Racer starts @ the top & 1 at the bottom. This way they will eventually meet on the track (probably in the middle on a turn hopefully) SO they will try to pass each other without hitting (or hit ) then they got to go to the pit, repair and so on then leave again and race back up or down the hill.

First person to finish the course up and down + 1 Pit wins.

Fuel Gauge

Not sure if this has been sugested BUT, we shoul have a Fuel Gage IN the car thats big enough so we can see and think to ourself....hey....maybe I should get some Gas?

Because right now only way for me to see how much fuel i have is to change to an outside view that showes me how much I have. When I drive from the in car view. I'm as far back as possible because then I have a greater field of view and can see if there is a car beside me and such but because of this I cant read the gauges.

So I think this would need to be improved some how...

I could not tell you here anyways.

But there may be a trial or something out there. Try searching for those programs posted above you might get lucky one of them could have a 15day trial or similar.

Hello,

Just wondering how a lot of you guys render those pictures from LFS to make it look 3d etc? Im guessing your using a program like 3D Max or similar?

Also is it just clicking a button and it renders it or do you have to add effects and so on to do it?

Thanks
