Quote: Point one: The system you outlined is pretty to close to the best that the consumer can get their hands on and if it's not fast enough for you then please explain to us whats beyond the cutting edge so that someday we might all measure up to your lofty standards!
Very wrong. There are MANY different configurations you could go with to overshadow the performance of my system.
Suggestions : AMD64 CPU, P4 Extreme Edition CPU, ATI X800XT-PE, NVIDIA 6800Ultra, Raptor Hard Drives @ 10,000RPM
Quote: Point two: PCI express will be in full swing by next summer. Why? One small reason is because it's to expensive for motherboard and video card makers to continue to produce their product in two formats.
PCI Express won't be in "full swing" until consumers decide that they want to completely DITCH their current hardware to upgrade to this 'new tecnology that promises so much'. And unfortunately, you can't predict things like that as well as you think.
Quote: Point three: Trying to help people doesn't give you "free to be an azzhole privileges"! We welcome newcomers and they don't have to feed candy or hold hands with anyone unless thats what you're into, but signing up for a forum just to showoff is kinda pathetic don't you think!
I didn't sign up to show off. My buddy frequents this board and was reading a post out loud about DooM3, so I decided to post a response to try and help.
Think about any valuable lesson you've ever learned in your life. It's usually a difficult process.
You can choose to ignore my suggestions and focus on my hostility, or you can do the opposite. That's your choice.
