Congrats on the new system. I'm probably going to build a new PC at the end of the month when I get my bonus check. If you don't mind me asking, why are you opting for the Athlon64? I'm a big AMD fan, but I was under the impression that there weren't a lot of apps out there for 64-bit.

You have crashing problem with this card?

And, you are going to replace the 9800 Pro??

Why?

It's compatible with 32-bits applications as well. This is a bad time for buying but i really have no choice to change some important components so i decided to go for a new system.

Yes. For me it crashes so i wanted to know if it happens to you.

but why are you want to replace r9800pro?

 

Did you read the post that I linked to? If so, I'm having a hard time understanding the question. I don't want to have to deal with any of the issues that I outlined in that message. Does that help to clarify?

I know. I was just wondering if there was a particular reason you decided on 64-bit.

As i said, it's a bad time for buying because it's kind of a transition period right now and for budget reasons. Intel will come out with it's new 64bits soon at sky high prices . According to what i have read, the performances are pretty good too. And I had AMD in the past and I liked it. I was hesitating with the P4 3.2GHZ.

 

BTW, i have no problems with ATI 9800pro. I did not installed Catalyst 4.4. and 4.5 : i heard bad things about those. I stick with 4.3 for the moment.

I wonder why it works like a charm for some people but not for others. My game runs beautifully on this card as long as I have Catalyst 3.8 installed. Anytime I want to play something else, I have to upgrade, but if I want to go back to KotOR, I have to switch back. Even the 4.2 and 4.7 drivers refuse to work well and most people say they're the best.

Athlon XP 2500+

512MB PC2700

Epox 8RDA+

Maxtor 40GB ATA133

GeForce3

SBLive

 

Unfortunately to run KOTOR stable I have to run the CPU & RAM at stock speeds. Otherwise I'd clock the CPU up to 3200+ & RAM at PC3200. I clock the vid card from 200 to 240mhz to play KOTOR.
