Yes... it is interesting to read or hear what people CONSIDER
"Smooth"... so you have people playing games on GF4-MXs or 9600 or
lower ATI cards and thing they are getting AWSOME performance...
In a multiplayer battle, they are slaughtered because they don't have
the details or smooth action of others.
I'd say that FCry runs very smooth on my 9800Pro... but UT2004 is much
smoother.... but both run better on my 9800Pro than my 5900 card on
another system. But having 1GB RAM helps too.

Remember: In the USA - it is dangeroud to draw or write about Heir Bush in a negative way. The police or SS are called, people threaten to kill you. (What country is this again?)
- 15yr old boy in Washington was disciplined for drawing such images.
- White House blows cover of an undercover agent because her husband said there were no WMD (before the USA started the war) - her job was finding terrorist. (This makes sense?)
God bless the land of the free. Where you can burn the Constitution... Ashcroft does it every day.
