Title: Welp... (was fun while it lasted) Post by: Twilight on 2003-08-26, 21:16 So we can't afford to renew our licenses for the games, so the cafe is gonna close on sept 30th. If any of you Nor Cal guys wanna show up before then and get some game on, it'd be tight to meet y'all.

Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Twilight on 2003-08-26, 21:27 If we can't get someone interested in buying the shop, then yes we will most likely be selling off a large chunk of hardware. I'll ask teh bossman about it today and let ya know.

Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Woodsman on 2003-08-27, 02:44 well i proubly wont be able to get down there myself but ill try to nag kenny and lee about getting thier asses down there.
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Dicion on 2003-08-30, 14:28 yes, if they are selling any hardware, we are most likely interested ;)
Specifically, any routing hardware, or rack-mount related hardware (racks themselves too) and GRAPHICS CARDS.. i need one of those.. any FX's there? ;) but generically, we might be interested in anything :) Personally, I wouldnt mind a LCD or another system or what have you.. Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Tekhead on 2003-08-30, 15:12 yes, I need a new gfx card =[
/me pets his gf3ti200 you've been good to me, but the time's coming when I've gotta put you down.. Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Dicion on 2003-08-30, 15:58 no..
you dont understand... i have a RAEDON 7000 PCI PEE CEE EYE as in NOT AYE GEE PEE.... ..... /me orders a fully loaded GF4 now.. and a GFFX later Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Woodsman on 2003-08-31, 10:37 i had a radeon 7000 pci i. it was pretty good to me
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: games keeper on 2003-08-31, 10:47 I have a radeon 9500+ love my card reminds me hat radeon is beating nvideas ass with there cards at the moment .
and the 9600 isnt to expansive anymore Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Lilazzkicker on 2003-09-01, 16:10 Radeon beating Nvideas ass? Lol, until Radeon gets me using one, nvidia still gets my vote, and preference.
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: games keeper on 2003-09-01, 16:59 eehm lillaz , it IS true .
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Arno on 2003-09-05, 10:50 Quote from: games keeper eehm lillaz , it IS true . Depends on what benchmark you look at. GeForceFX is faster then the Radeon's in Q3A, but slower in UT2K3. It is said that the Radeon's have a faster PixelShader 2.0 functionality, however early DoomIII benchmarks show that the GeForceFX is in the lead. In the end it all comes down to personal preference.Title: Re: Welp... Post by: games keeper on 2003-09-05, 16:29 ati is 20% faster on the nvideas geforcefx (dancing elf "I dont know the name " ) demo
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Woodsman on 2003-09-05, 17:17 for the record lil i tried to replace that pci radeon i bought a geforce4mx. my frame rate dropped in every game i played. now i know the geforce 4 mx is just a cheap budget card but my radeon was nearly 2 years older and it whuped the geforces ass like a country of staving arabs. not to say nvidia dosent make quality cards but if you think the choice between ati and nvidia is so cut and clear your wrong.
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Arno on 2003-09-05, 17:53 Quote from: games keeper ati is 20% faster on the nvideas geforcefx (dancing elf "I dont know the name " ) demo You mean NVidia's Dawn demo. That 20% performance difference might very well be correct, since the demo makes use of a lot of PixelShaders and Radeon cards are indeed fast with PixelShaders. However, since the Dawn code was hacked by ATi fanatics in order to work on Radeon's, I don't trust that number 100%. I prefer legitimate, unbiased benchmarks.Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Woodsman on 2003-09-05, 18:50 which dont excist by the way
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Arno on 2003-09-05, 21:31 Quote from: Woodsman which dont excist by the way Of course they exist. When a site like www.hardocp.com or www.anandtech.com does a timedemo from Quake3 you'll get a pretty good indication of how good a videocard performs in Quake3. Nothing wrong or biased about that.Title: Re: Welp... Post by: ReBoOt on 2003-09-05, 22:36 btw i buy nvidia cards cuz i know they'll work quite painless, however ATI do have cheap cards i might get one the next time i buy a gfx.
Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Kain-Xavier on 2003-09-21, 08:04 That sucks Twilight. I'd go but school and work are going to keep me busy.
Oh and to make a comment about graphic cards... I have had 4 different graphic cards and none have worked until now... 64 MB Geforce 2 MX (AGP) Ph33r. Title: Re: Welp... Post by: Tekhead on 2003-09-21, 08:55 How's the sale going?? =DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDdd
