mikrucio:  dont be fooled by framerates! all you need is a good card that can KEEP the frames rolling. thats way more important.

You're fed up with that too, huh?  If your framerate ever goes FASTER than your monitor's refresh rate, it just causes frame skipping.  All the game consoles use VSync, and they look fabulous with graphic chips that are several years old!  Why are PC users so hyper about bleep'n frame rates?!

T_Bone:  Doom3 will be alot faster once Nvidia add a feature to their driver that allows the engine to skip the rendering of all the BLACK PIXELS

I hated that game.

The only thing I liked about it is that it reminded me, vaguely, of Infestation (hence, my avatar).  Still, ID really didn't put that "advanced" engine to good use.  I don't know why Doom3 is still the benchmark used for all video cards.

Personally, I think my Radeon 9800 Pro is the kicks.  But, I also had to replace the friggin' tiny cooler with one of these.  Works great.

...and you all think Pentiums are insane heat factories!  :lol:
