C:R - Carmageddon: Reincarnation. Cows & rest of peds equal points/credits, flagman earns you 1000 credits & more (8000 if you gib/splatter one), there's the iconic Twister monster truck with drill @ it's front, it is the reimagining of 1997's Carmageddon, supports DX11 through deffered renderer/MegaTexturing, you can make the opponent fly out of his car if rammed hard enough, it is eccessively graphic & it's f**kload of fun. It'll run real awesome on i7's & 8000 Piledriver series, 8GB & above of RAM, HD 7900/GTX 700 series (make it 2 SLI or CFX ) oh & it's eccessively graphic. Did i said it's eccessively graphic? It's more than that when you'll see herd of cows & peds bunched up in one spot/place/etc..... You've being warned - the fun there is endless. lol

P.S. PayPal & KS backers of 35$ & 25$ respectively get this game free from Steam to DL, along with 97 & 98's Carma & Splat Pack free of charge as well from GOG.com. Also one gets DRM-free/non-Steam/LAN-only version of C:R for self or for friend/relative/girlfriend/etc....

Ha OK then reminds me of an old move=ie called DeathRace 2000 I think. It was based on the same principal. Race across country and different pedestrians had different point levels etc. It sounds Like fun. That's what I like about the prototype series is just the carnage you can unleash if you want to.

My RAM can only get 2400 10-11-10-28

Lol i know

umm getting a Crosshair Z, have 8GB of Sniper RAM, PSU, GPU, FX-8350 etc..

You stil have your loop right?? So you must be close.

Yes i still have my loop

Good so mostly just assembly then and up and running

Been really busy lately. Barely have time to game much but hopefully I'll be able to get a few in.

Gotta keep them skills sharp Durvelle does D1nky ever pop in these days??

He's just like me also. Been so busy hasn't had time to but I spoken with him a few days ago

It was inspired by this movie: visit the Carmageddon's YouTube channel & see the Carmageddon KickStarter campaign vid, Neil "Nobby" Barnden explains everything there. That movie (Death Race 2000) actually came out the year i was born (1976). lol

P.S. I saw it too at age of 15 or 16, Eagle from the game resembles the Frankenstein's car (with blade on pooftop, even though it has no roof ), R.I.P. David Carradine - the only real Frankenstein. Death Race 2008 - is a joke, but i like the Semi from this movie. Cheers, keep headbangin'. Sorry for OT.

Here you go, A cheap $15 ECS A970M-A Deluxe board paired with FX-4130, default volts, quick multi change and cpu is at 4.6Ghz

Definately a classic. Looks like I have a few years on you too. Take those lat 2 numbers and turn them around that's when I was born.

Looks good swami, I've heard those little buggers can get pretty hot as well.

 

[d1nky]

yoo i am alive, been busy as hell lately. even worked this Saturday morning.

Got my fatality in the box next to me and i got a little reminder of the fun i had with it :/ looks so good and clean!

may go and buy another older gfx card to bench or something similar!

I'm at work now lol

Nope, IBT stress test, with the Xigmatek S1283 cooler max CPU temp is 45C and stays around 42C.

The board doesn't report proper CPU volts not sure if the CPU is at 1.41 or 1.476.

@YautjaLord

I did some experimenting with the 2400 ram I have today on the CHV-z and I have come up with some very interesting findings , I have posted them at OCF and you really should have a peek at this.

I've noticed lately a lot of people having issues with the 2400 ram on the ASUS boards and from what I discovered today the new bios revision aren't reading the ram profiles correctly. On top of that it changes bus speeds when setting up. You'll see read the links.
It will work, I don't know if your ram is the same as what I have F3-2400C10D-8GTX
Here's a couple of shots
This is plain stock with default bios settings on my 9370 all I did was set the timings, speed and voltage

And here's one with a bit of tweaking just adjusted tRAS and tRC timings with a 1T command rate stock volts 1.65 sped up my machine a bit too

!more at 1.7 volts dropped the CL to 9 just for fun, like I said before I haven't figured out how to make this ram dance. I've had better luck with it at the 2200 range.

Nice of you to pop in bud , send me a message sometime!

 

[suraswami]

yay 4950 Mhz!! dang that 50 Mhz to 5 Ghz is not happenning. Already at 1.57v, should I give more?

Thanx, i'd rather leave it @ that freq & timings & fiddle with CPU's freq 'stead, but you bet i'll read it regardless. Anything to make those components ready for C:R @ April 10. Thanx again.

I just want to let you know that with the new BIOS I had a hell of a time with that ram. Right now I'm using 1403 which read things correctly so did the 508. So far 1403 has worked the best.

 

[Durvelle27]

New card arrived today

 

[suraswami]

Yes 5 GHZ finally!! With a cheap $15 ECS A970M-A motherboard

Trying to get CPUZ validation, but complained for new version, by the time I submitted it crashed. Freaking 1.62v. May be need to pump more!

 

[suraswami]

Got it to finally validate thru CPUZ

Latest, 22.01? What happens if i choose the 19.01, the one before that? Both basically do the same, fix some issues but if you say 22.01 did you hell of a time than 19.01 it is? The board (CVF-Z) starts to support FX-8350 from 08.06, i looked for it & surprisingly it wasn't there, 'stead there was 09.01; thought to myself go for 19.01, saw there was 22.01 - f**k yeah go for it stead; now you saying this? lol I'd go for 19.01 than. Why everything that you want to be good, have to be so f**kin' complicated BIOS included? Thanx, man.

You might want to use something even older than that Yautja, I didn't test all the bios ver. but I do know that new isn't always better.

@suraswami That's pretty sweet for that cheap azz board.

I did some NB clocking and its at 2424 Mhz. I got a set of nice Corsair XMS 1600 ram from sigma, its at 9-9-9-24 @ 1600 clock.

Tighter timings or relax and push more NB? Which is better?
