    Jealous?



    If I was smart, I would have a witty punchline in this sig that would make everyone ROTFL.

    Bah!!

    It's bliss when you have this in your loungeroom:

    2.1GH Core2 Duo processor
    2 Gig of DDR2 RAM
    Nvidia Geforce 7900 GT
    200 Gig Hard Drive

    with a 32 inch High Def LCD monitor with an HDMI input
    and a wireless keyboard and laser mouse

    So I can play it while lying on the couch sinking a cold one...

    I bought this in expectation of MTW2, the only thing left is a 5.1 surround sound system...

    I think I may even take a photo so you can all bask in the glory of true power and comfort...

    I am officially sending you a second death threat, and a third close behind too, seeing as i'm playing with 256MB ram, a 1.4ghz processor, a geforce4 MX, and a 20gb harddrive, and can barely make it on minimal settings everything except shadows, grass and huge unit size.

    GAH!~

    Make it a fourth. XD

    Sounds like my computer's identical twin. Thing is mine can just make it to medium and have a huge unit size (with no shadows). The only small problem is that it struggles in large battles. The better performance may be because my GeForce 4 MX is the MX 4000 and has 128MB. Most Geforce 4 MXs are only 64MB. However I have a freind who has to play RTW with a Geforce 2 MX200 64MB. She has my deepest sympathy.

    Goodness, talk about large battles. They always lag like crazy, and sometimes during crucial battles, when I launch the massed cav charge that will scatter the whole army, the comp hangs in the moment of victory because it can't handle five to six units of enemies suddenly routing X_x

    That's not so bad, after all, it couldn't be easier to make a slideshow on it!

    But seriously, that's got to be awful.

    Oh it is. You should see the graphics, all blurry with fuzzy edges, it can hardly make it on the lowest settings for everything. I have however seen RTW worse under some 32MB card that I have never heard of, it froze whenever you fired a missile of any type, it showed stone walls as black rectangles, some units were just black silhouettes when you zoomed in, all banners were grey and worse of all grass was black too. Now that was bad! Luckly for the person who had that card they decided to upgrade to a Nvidia 6200 soon after playing their first battle.

    Hehe.. I see. You are the kind of person who likes to make people jealous of things. I am not that kind of person, yet my computer would most likely make you jealous of me.

    What makes you think that?

    But you've got to admit there's a little of that inside you too: "Hehe.. (...) yet my computer would most likely make you jealous of me."

    Nah man. I am not in a habit of posting in a thread which was initiated to spam PC superiority, I just like putting down people who do like to do this to spite those less fortunate.

    Gotta stand up for the underdogs.

    Ah, the laptop I had before could barely handle RTW on the very lowest of settings. It had just 20 Gb harddisk... All black & white loading screens.

    Still it was great fun, even the fact that I was able to actually play RTW was very statisfying.

    Btw those Intel chipsets are not that great as you might think they are, I can play EB on medium - high settings, but I have to accepted a bit of a lag.

    Anyway it's allways sweet to see someone defending others who are not that fortunate.

    It was powered by something like that only slightly worse. The only good thing about it was that the person in question had a very small electric bill. It was THE ultimate budget PC!
