Re: TYAN Thunder i7525 (S2676) Motherboard/ Dual 3.8GHz Socket 604 Xeon/ 8GB RAM/ Adaptec 2420SA/ Adaptec 2020ZCR/8800 G

Excellent, well thought out build so far! Its hot and out gunned by a core duo but there is something redeeming about this era just before core duos debuted. Two cores meant you needed a workstation board and $$$. I remember the first SLI system advertised in Custom PC magazine was a Scan 3XS system …

Re: CRT experience

Like the Pro Eizo Coloredge IPS panels from the 2010s that have turned pink? Or the HP/Dell Dreamcolor RGB backlit panels that go green? (They were great) Almost any CCFL backlight with the creeping yellow at the edges? The Sony PVM/BVM OLEDs no longer being made where the blue wears significantly …

Re: CRT experience

I'd say incorrect RGB Cut Off and Bias values due to some drifting components.

Once at 32MB it runs fine, I guess it's just creeping up to over the 48MB+ memory used for max detail textures. Anyway …

Re: PowerVR Fun Thread

Ah yes sorry you have a PCI version...hmmm Are you referring to AGP aperture setting in the bios setup? Yes I have the PCI variant of the Neon 250, would it have any effect? I don't think so but no harm in trying AGP Textures was a selling point if implemented correctly My knowledge on that isn't …

Re: PowerVR Fun Thread

Q3 Gold from GOG Xeon 550Mhz @ 666MHz :D 128mb ram <- I think my issues are memory related actually, tried a different stick or two and Q3 crashed instantly no matter what setting. Need to find at least 256mb that works and run memtest 440GX @ 120MHz FSB GL Driver: Default GL Ext: on Video Mode: …
