nvidia 8800 gtx problem - Drunken F00l - Jan 18, 2008
If I played 800x600 I'd probably get some pretty good FPS. The only thing about that is though that I like running windowed mode and 800x600 would be a tiny box on my monitor (1920x1200 resolution). I use windowed mode so that I can alt tab to other things like web browser, AIM, MSN, email, etc.

windowed mode in vista (unless you have aero turned off) actually takes away a lot of the system. As you can read on their website, they are quite proud of their resource-eating bubbly floaty aero-system. I tried running Vista without vista, but couldn't shake the feeling that my OS was resenting me for it.

yeah, my 8600gt pulls 120fps at max settings, I would love to see how much power I could pull out of a 8800...

Wow biggs, im jealous of the patience you must have from using that pc lol
What is considered a good FRamerate, and what is considered bad?
nvidia 8800 gtx problem - Drunken F00l - Jan 18, 2008
I would say a good framerate is anything over 60. After that, I don't notice much difference.
