Looks good to me, at least worlds better than mine. I'm a bit confused about the graphics card though. I know the four-number ATI cards, but I'm unfamiliar with the three-number cards, and I tried looking up the 670g with no luck at all.


No problem. It was you who called me on transferring GT subjects to other forums, and you were right. What I think about politics has nothing to do with Silent Hunter.

Typo.The card is the AMD 760G not the 670G, ooops.

I agree, politics are well politics and should not carry over to the other forums.I would help out mookie or even tribes if they had a question on here(but don't recall ever seeing them post outside of GT.I have friends, good friends even, who I do not see eye to eye with politically but we are friends, hang out often etc. I may not care for their political thinking but hey good people and it is how I look at people here for the most part.I actually hope we can all make it to a subsim meet one day, I would like to meet you and some of the others from GT.Odds are, would get along for most part. I am sure there are some scotch drinkers among us, I get along with anyone who enjoys a nice single malt. lol

...reckon you'll have to be very patient and learn how to install mods correctly.
i was dissapointed - even with the mods, and i thought i dont want to spend many many hours trying to make this thing work. that should be the developers job. it seems a lot of trial and error is needed and i just gave up - it did my head in. it looks truely beautiful and i think thats the way forward. but my SH3 runs very smooth, has many many great mods and is a joy to go to - not so, for me, with SH5. give it a few years yet and maybe a super mod like GWX to consolidate all the mods that make it work well and give it the stability and polish it so desperatly needs.

The 'G' stands for Generic, and it's designed to work with any game. I've used it on Tomb Raider and Sid Meier's Pirates with no trouble.

I had to do a little research. If I'm understanding correctly the 760g is an integrated chipset that attaches to the motherboard for high-quality integrated graphics. It's commonly accepted that a dedicated graphics card will always be better than onboard integrated graphics, but the reviews I read do give the 760g high marks, so it might do just fine, and if it doesn't you can always look into a new card at a later date. I'm using a fairly low-rent AMD 4650, but that's about the best I can ever have for my old AGP slots.

There are, but being allergic to alcohol I'm not one of them.
