Don't worry, Im not fighting you... Im having a nice conversation!

Kinda puts a smile on my face when I see you replyed to the topic... :up:

But back to the topic... YOU'RE WRONG AND IM RIGHT!!! :arrgh!:

When I had Crysis some time ago, I always used the 64bit executable and never had problems with it... never crashed or locked.

Didn't try to pick a fight, I'm just a smartass. :oops:

The whole 64-bit thing is making my head spin though.
(Thanks for the links Webster, forgot the OS can (or rather; Windows does) limit the max amount of memory as well. :up:)

I guess I would describe the difference as; the possibility to move twice as much data around, but how much this benefits a given application depends on the type of application.


Think I'll have another look at Crysis this weekend, I had kinda given up hope. :hmmm:

FWIW I'll just wait until SH5 is released. Once I install and run it, then I'll determine whether I need to update and if so what I need to update. It's just not worth stressing about at this time.

well it all looks ok but sh5 was supposed to be needing a 512mb 8800gt card minimum to run the game on moderate to high settings so a new card wouldnt be a bad idea since they always seem to underestimate what you really need.

Philipp_Thomsen 11-06-09 11:44 AM

Don't worry, Kaiserhof, you'll be able to run SH5 in low settings with that computer!

:up:

Dumb question
 
Hi, I'm running Windows XP sp3, Intel Core Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz, 3.25 RAM, Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT. Which video card will be necessary to play SH5 in high settings? Thanks for answer Take care

i have almost the exact same rig and was assured by the devs i will run sh5 just fine on low to med settings and on high i will have minor reduction in fps.

mine rig is a Win XP, Q9550 @ 2.83GHz, 3.5 RAM, Nvidia 8800 GT 512mb (i just upgraded from the Q6600)

i was told by the devs that you want 8800gt or equal in a 1gb video card for using high settings without slower fps

but as i also said in the other post they always seem to under estimate what you really need so....

you might try to sell your 6600 and move up to the 9550 like i did, its only $250 and you should be able to sell your 6600 and get $100-150

what i did was give my dad the 6600 and completely upgrade his P4 ide hdd computer into a quad core sata hdd computer for around $400 and upgrade my cpu at the same time so if you are creative you might be able to work out a simular sales pitch :salute:

so in order to justify me getting a new cpu i built pops a new computer, but at least i know he got what he needed this xmas
