Yeah, @Greenslade , there is something going on with attaching images. I'm sure @W1zzard is getting it sorted out.

I haven't yet. Will try in a bit though.

Yep, working fine here.

Maybe clear your browsing history @Greenslade and try it again?

Here's the GPU cover (a bit oxidised) off my XFX GeForce FX 5800 from way back when. Delidding ain't nothing new.

Same here but i have never seen one here. in the UK

Did some research and looks like my old favourite FW 71.89 drivers are too new for certain Nvidia cards. I may retest GF3 Ti 200 vs FX 5600 XT (64-bit) with older drivers.

Even with that castrated XT, I'd still want a FX card on my S462 setup.

44.03 for Ti200
169.21 for FX 5600

I'd suggest a GFFX 5700 or 5800 then; I'd use 93-71 drv. for GF3Ti and 175-19 for GFFX.

You would give away FPS on both cards then.
Based on personal benchmark experience.

I vaguely remember benching my Ti4400 with the 44.03 driver. The 4400 is long gone (I'd like another one someday), but I have a GF3 Ti200 to play around with now & I know I have the 44.03 for it on a flash drive too. The only FX 5000 series I have is a 5200 junker, & I need to find a heatsink/fan for it. I gave away my FX 5600 (with the cooler/fan from the 5200) to a friend in need.

It's nice to give something to a friend in need.

I am checking what games i can get for PS3, when i receive it.And checking the ones i can get from CEX for £1.And checking them out on you tube.and came across this one by our old friend Clint

After watching this i don,t think i will go with this one .It sounds like this video was one of his earlier ones.

The PC version is better.

Too many PS3 games suffer from 720p30, though many titles do still look pretty good when thinking that it practically has a 7800 GTX with 128-bit bus.

Robert B · Oct 3, 2022

Got me some TARGET practice.

DFI 430VX P166MMX S3, ...

After a light cleanup it looks a million times better.

The rust will be taken out at a later date.

The PC posted at the first press of the power button. This case is exactly like the one I had in '96.

Mine didn't have the CPU frequency LCD but it had a TURBO button.

At the moment I have two cases like this and a bigger tower that shares the same design.

Do you know if they do a price guide for games as they do for records? I would think they do.Cex buying prices are crap I don,t understand anyone making any money selling to them.

There's also the controls. Better on PC. FPS type games are generally better with a mouse & keyboard

Yeah, without a doubt. Also Dualshock 3 feels hella small on my hands these days. Though I got these add-ons for the triggers so no slipping fingers anymore. :toast:
