You make it sound like your wife is boring. It sounds like PC gaming is more fun than your wife. bad dog bad dog ^_^

I'm not sure why this game is unstable on so many machines, I rarely have issues with CTDs anymore. My gamer is my 955 BE running on a 790FX-GD70 with a GTX 260 as the main graphics card. I'm always the first to load on my team (first pick of vehicles). It folds on the other 3 9600GSOs at the same time that I'm playing and the CPU load never reaches above 70%, so I don't think its overly CPU bound. I have pings around 40-60 playing on Seattle servers and usually 60-80 playing East Coast, but I get massive server lag all the time (I just switch servers). At least, I think its server side lag as there is no indication its on my end when I investigate it.


It was mentioned earlier in the topic, but for those with Windows 7: have you disabled desktop composition?

Well the 12 and 16-core chips are for servers. The 6-core Phenom is releasing during Late summer I think? So Lemode should wait until then to rebuild his PC. Then he can walk all over those smug Intel Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper People. The Intel i7 980 is like 600 or so. Sooo not worth it. The loading time thing is with the AMD drivers for 4800+ cards. They are working on fixing it now. I'm gonna see if I can't improve my times by OCing my 4850. Any tips?

So the 4800 series is the reason I load so slow ? That and running a dual core ?
It probably takes a good minute or two when it changes maps. So the wife thing.
In my case I don't know about Lemode, but 25 years and counting she is pretty boring.
Just watches TV and never wants to do anything. She works pretty hard, but that is no
reason to quit having fun. They wear out quicker then us. Might be that popping kids out thing.

anything is more fun than listenting to a woman complain about everything and anything even though she has no real reson to do so...oh and and shopping for things that i don't give a poop about...lol

Well, I am currently OCing my XFX 4850. Im currently at 685Mhz at 65-66 degrees Celsius.
As for the wife, take her on a bicycle ride every once in a while. I may be young but I still enjoy riding the Natchez Trace every once in a while. The 5xxx series also seem to have the same issue too. It's the drivers right now. Not to mention the game is finicky.

It should be the same. Just go into ATI CCC and select Crossfire mode

I will play for as long/much as I can over the course of a day. Just doubt I will play more than an hour or 2 a day till I get my case.

I really wouldn't be shocked if you were majorly successful cruising the streets at night, especially if you were flattening stuff at the time.

 

[YinYang.ERROR]

What are we going to do about the empty TPU servers? Maybe have some sort of BF:BC2 day/night (preferably on the weekend)?

especially if he put broom bristles on the end...it could double as a street sweeper.

ps women love a man who looks homeless and has barrels duck taped to his wheels.

I'm down, but I'm located in MST and I usually find I miss most meet-ups mentioned in thread.

I knew there was something I was missing. I've been spending my time dressed as one of the Village People in my custom made squisher. I've not been successful.

You and Kurgan would make a cute couple. He’s always rockin’ the Rhinestone boots and matching cowboy hat.

 

[erocker]

I think Mondays would be a perfect night. Oh hey, today's Monday! I need to play more often but when I do I rarely see the TPU servers being used.
