Oh My God's Beautifull!! (goin from an X550 to an X1950)

Well if you haven't noticed I disapeared off the forums recently and the reason was my computer's hard-drive after months of knowning it might go down did, well there goes my b'day dream of a new computer... well I just learned I didn't need a new computer... Decided to throw on a X1950 ontop of my order of a new hard-drive, and PSU, had to buy a new windows OS since Emachines makes you back-up your windows which I couldn't cause I replaced Cd/dvd-rw replaced with a new dvd-rom... welll got it all installed today and threw on SHIV to see what my fancy smancy new Graphics card could do.... Set to max setting 40 frames in the torpedo mission, and I went to external and my jaw hit the floor with the power of a thermonuclear bomb

.... I mean you see the pictures but its sooo much different when your there looking at it with your own computer... needless to say for the next 5 minutes I was dancing around my computer.... This was like the first ever game I've ever put at max settings that wasn't a very old game, so you can probably immagine my feelings. This makes me love SH4 even more..

Also SATA Rules, I think, going from a IDE to a SATA Like halved my load times....

Beware Japaneese merchant traffic, Rilders in the hizzzouse!

Gratz, but dont speak too loudly before the worshipers of the God of Straight Lines denounce you as a heritic for not decrying the disgusting jaggies that totally ruin thier game play, becuase, you know, cant actually enjoy a game that has a lil bit of jaggy lines.
