I've started 'SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated.' So far, I've collected a bunch of dirty socks and some clean underwear... but I'm still out of bubblegum.

'Shadow of the Tomb Raider' has now been completed, 100% (excluding achievements, which I don't prioritize.). A pretty good series, combat is far and away more interesting and fun than it has ever been. Similar to my enjoyment of the military encounters in 'Half-Life,' I really liked these sections. …

Strike 5! Another bad Ti4600! This one felt like it was on fire while it was running on an open bench. Several different boards, OS, and drivers were tried. The best it could do is attached, heh... Current total of problem Ti4400/Ti4600s (I've yet to own a completely functional card...): 2 PNY 2 …

Thanks again very much! Are there any chipsets that are recommended (or that I should avoid) ? I've been pretty happy with the Foxconn 865A01-PE-6EKRS with 865PE. It's mainly for XP use with an FX5900XT, though Windows 9x is supported. Willamette/Northwood/Prescott (up to 800MHz FSB) https://www. …

What speed Pentium 4 (or AMD) would be able to push the GeForce Ti 4200 to the max? It looks like the Pentium 4's start at 1.5 GHz? Any Pentium 4. You won't be running at 640x480, so once you start running things at 1024x768 + AA and AF, the Ti4200 will become the bottleneck. For Games like Quake, …

If you're going to play Alice, the Ti4200 is the way to go; The Voodoo3 (any version) has nowhere near enough power for Alice unless you wish to relive the days of 15-20fps gaming. Plus, Alice needs to be played in 32-bit color, but textures can be dropped to 16-bit without too much loss of fidelity …

What does your gut tell you? Also, no one here is going to refund your equipment if it breaks down. With that said, I blast the crap out of my stuff, well-ventilated and cooled, of course. However, I don't operate old hardware at loony speeds day in and day out - only for quick bursts. I've never …

Very Nice!!! I also have an Asus P4T on the way. Thanks to your thread, I bought this one. I like this board and it may find a permanent home in a case. For now, it's waiting to be fired up again once I'm bumped out of #1 :D For now everyone focussed on Nvidia. I will definitely give ATI a try …

A nice color-keyed, period correct-ish set of matching equipment - Asus P4T & V6800 (GeForce 256 DDR) Wow, where did you get the GeForce 256 from? eBay. It had an incomplete title. It was (relatively) cheap also; $53 shipped. It's cleaned up in the photos, but it didn't need much polishing. it …

Without using money to solve the problem, I might suggest: Dropping down to 512x384 resolution, if possible - it still looks good, in my opinion. Here's a Half-Life 2 3Dnow! patch; might be worth a shot: https://web.archive.org/web/20001208080800/http://3dnow.net/files.htm (credit akula65 https:// …
