I think I'm gonna go with this: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/139552

Free delivery too.

Do you reckon my PSU is fit for it? I've got hardly anything in my PC, so I would think it would be OK (no floppy drive, only one HDD etc)

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card, and I'd like to make sure I spend wisely.

What's the best card(s) in the 50 - 100 quid range? I prefer to pay more around the 50 quid area rather than 100 though. PCI-e BTW.

My PSU is an Antec Earthwatts 380W, which I know isn't super powerful, but I'm not after 2 8800GTX's in SLI..

I've had my eye on this lately: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ ... p;catid=56&subcat=404

I'm looking for a simple zoom utility which works in a similar way to the zoom tool in mac's: http://www.apple.com/accessibility/vision/

I'm aware window's has one, but that's not what I'm after. Are there any fullscreen zoom utilities like the mac one for windows?

I did search on google, but the ones I found were either not fullscreen, or just zoomed in on a static screenshot.

Cheers

Apparantly "he loved it".

I was wondering what happened to kartsim, especially since how long ago we last heard about it.

Great news though that it should be out soon.

The screenshots look awesome! Finally some PROPER lighting and colours in a game!

If we had a friggin S1/S2 licensed only forum then we could have proper threads without trying to hide stuff all the time.

Quote from Bawbag :

i'm booking an apointment with Jay tommorow to get some revenge!

Yeah, thanks to Jay for inviting us down.

Edit: Yeah just to clarify, the patch was a beta version of Y, so it had the new blackwood track etc etc. However the WR setups made in patch Y wouldn't load, hence us having to make our own on the day. Heikki however drove his time on the old version of blackwood, with the old physics from X.

The BF1 is most fun with no TC AND basically no DF. Try the attached setup, it's quite fun and driveable.

Yep, me, Jack (Clownpaint) and Ray (Bawbag).

Was a lot of fun, and we learnt a lot about the V1 project.

The simulator felt wierd or slightly alien, but was great fun to drive, and I think as we drove more we got used to the feeling of the big screen, and the (very) low driving position.

Ray's dad took some photos, so hopefully we will get to see them.

Quote from Michael Denham :

I get a lot of annoying crashes in RBR, and it's definitely a driver issue. I suck!

Har har... nah that was quite funny actually

Mazz4200: Yeah I set render detail to medium and no more crashes. The game still looks reasonable too.

That screenshot was taken after I had turned off AA and AF from the drivers...

Another issue BTW, I'm getting lines across the road... see attachment

Yep they're installed. I'm happy using low detail for now. Is it my imagination or was there a good sound mod for RBR? Or any mods worth adding to the game?

Edit: I'm still getting some steering lag too after doing those fixes deggis wrote about.

Thanks for helping, I'll try some of the sound stuff out tomorrow. I use a core 2 Intel processor BTW.

Totally freezing is what happens. I've tested rendering quality on low, and it no longer crashes, but the game now looks horrible.

Is it then my graphics card causing this? It's quite old (ATI Radeon 9600XT).

Any suggestions for a good value new card? X1950 maybe?

BTW, why doesn't LFS soften the tree edges like in RBR (on high detail)?

I've now updated every driver that I can update, and the problem remains. It even sometimes freezes when asking to load a profile. This is proper pissing me off. Thanks for trying to help though.

I'm getting annoying crashes with RBR... most often it happens at the start of a stage when the camera is panning around the side of the car. The whole PC completely freeses, and the sound plays a continous loop. I have to manually reset the PC, and the game doesn't write a crash dump...

Are you using it on a hard surface? NEVER use a laptop on a bed for example!

Me me, but when / where?

Edit: I vote for BL1 as I have a race there soon.

Yeah exactly. 30 fps is pretty good at the back of a full AI grid (cpu limited).

Agreed, the new BMW looks awesome.

Nothing wrong with doing that shaun, but give the original guy credit, i.e. saying I got this from http://www.overclock.net/graph ... d-ranking-3rd-time-s.html .
