What do you play Ofp with?

[j w 0]

I'm tempted to buy a Pentium M as it has the best CPU grunt around for Operation Flashpoint and is a brilliant performer all round, an excellent, quiet CPU that can be thermally cooled if need be. Now, do i purchase one or not.

Also, regarding AGP Aperture settings, my Aperture is set to 128MB and X8 on my GeForce 6600GT 128MB but i was reading on page ten about the supposed speed increased if i lower the Aperture to X4. I know in real world games it doesn't make a huge margin of difference but i'm thinking about trying to squeeze as much power out of my system as possible. My specifications are also on page 10.

That one costed him ~$2700

-HP Pavilion

-AMD Athlon XP 2800+

-2.08 GHz

-512 MB DDR SDRAM memory

-120 GB Ultra DMA hard drive (*EDIT*Plenty left now! Bring on the holidays! I've got enough space for seven games!)

-16x DVD-ROM drive

-48x24x48x CD-RW drive

(Man, am I glad I never took the sticker off the front )

I used to be able to run OFP like a dream...  But now with this whole ECP thing, well...  

Oh, and

I truly, truly despise you, general.

I played on:

Celeron 1.7 Ghz, 512 MB, Radeon 9550 (GF4 MX before)

Now I am crying on:

Celeron Mobile 1Ghz, 128MB, some Mobile Intel Graphics Card (well, i rather look on scripts then play on it)

Soon I will have

AMD 64kbit 3000+, 1,5GB, Radeon 9550 (when ArmA come, I will buy better graphics card)

Oh, add Malden on that one

I'm think I'm gonna steal his computer *evil laugh*

[crave22 0]

Ha ha! I uninstalled one of my games that I rarely use with all the expansions it had and I cleared up over 2 GB! w00t! But, I still despise you, general, because I still have to keep my view dist low...

I'll get you, one of these days.

Not if I get to it first! *evil... ...er laugh*

10 squads/side=NO LAG!!!

Thats a good one.

So what were your OFP graphics settings?

AA or AF was it on?

No one , even ones with top of the line PC's can play OFP lag free with 10 squads on the map. OFP's graphic rendering is simply too unstable for some reason to allow a enjoyable total consistently lag free gameplay.

Well, planning on an upgrade.

I'll start with 512 MB ram and "only" a 3200+, but a better GFX, since they are the most expensive parts.

Anyways, here's the list.

500W silent PSU

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 640KB Cache

512MB PC3200 @ 400 Mhz (to overclock )

Asus GeForce 6600gt/TD 256MB (EN6600GT/HTD/256M)*

A silent (15db) case fan, and a ramcooler from Coolermaster

This lands at about €500(euro), so I'll need to save a month or two (or might get some money from my parents )

*GFX specification:

Quote[/b] ]• Graphics Engine: GeForce 6600GT

• Video Memory: 256 M DDR3

• Engine Clock: 500MHz

• Memory Clock: 1GHz (500MHz DDR3)

• RAMDAC: 400MHz

• Bus Standard: PCI-Express

• Memory Interface: 128-bit

• Max Resolution: 2048x1536

Does this seem good?

[Guest Ti0n3r]

6600 is a excellent card when it comes to OFP. But most DX9 games (like BF2, COD2, DOOM3) won't run too good (Talking out of my own experience).

[j w 0]

Who said I played anything else then OFP?

[Guest Ti0n3r]

I bet you'll play ArmA, sooner or later

[j w 0]

Yeah, but will that be a DX9 game then?

[Guest Ti0n3r]

Yes, it's a DX9 game.

And I think it would be worth to wait until ArmA goes gold and then look for a decent DX9 card, since the prices will drop every month. At least that's what I will do.

[j w 0]

How do I know if the card's a DX9 card then?

[Guest Ti0n3r]

Just look for something like this;

Quote[/b] ]API - OpenGL, DirectX 9.0

I inherired this Computer from my late brother and I know little about what's good and what's bad. Here are my specs, you tell me.

AMD Athlon 64 Processor

3500+

2.25Ghz, 1.00GB of RAM

Physical Address Extension

2 Hard drives.

C: 114GB

F: 114GB

@Ti0n3r:

Damn, didn't say anything at the shops homepage.

The 6600GT I'm planning on buying here is a DX9 card. At least the 128MB version, cause the 256MB isn't even listed on their homepage...

@The-Architect:

Yes, that is a good computer. Of course could be better, but it's not bad.

What GFX do you have?

[XCess 0]

I'm running on a pretty crappy machine

AMD Sempron 2400+ (1.6ghz)

512mb DDR RAM

GeForce FX5500

Runs ECP with High terrain detial nicely though, although I keep viewdistance at 900.

[kernriver 4]

AMD 1700+ (1466 MHz@1914MHz)

Epox nForce2, 1GB RAM

ATI Radeon 9800SE 128MB, (softmoded)

My brother:

AMD 1600+ (1400MHz)

ASUS VIA KT333, 1GB RAM

ATI Radeon 9600XT 256MB

It's not the greatest configs, but we have fun with it. Just today i forced my brother to install OFP after a long time, and we played coop in LAN all day

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Mine:

3.91 GHz (OC'd, obviously ) Intel HT P4 (only 7000 benchmark, but this is because I'm using AI-NOS, and thus OFP's checking system only detects the CPU at low loadages = 3.4GHz).

2048MB Corsair 533 DDR2 RAM.

256MB DDR3 (OC'd again) ASUS (NVidia) 6800GTO - soon to be a 512MB DDR3 ASUS (NVidia) 7900GTX.

Samsung DVD-RW.

10000rpm 40GB Western Digital SATA Raptor (NTFS)

ASUS P5AD2E Deluxe Motherboard.

Thermaltake Soprano.

430W PSU.

Beat that!

-EDIT- Waits for Jackal or someone else to smite him.

[Guest Ti0n3r]

P4 with HT @3.8ghz

1024mb ram

GF6600 256 mb PIC-E

OFP runs extremely good on this machine.

I plan on upgrading the GFX & ram the day ArmA goes gold.

[deanosbeano 0]

i hope i can run arma

ASUS A8R-32 MVP ATi Crossfire Motherboard

Voodoo Stealth 650 Watt Modular Silent Power Supply

[Guest Ti0n3r]

This is the HDD I plan on using as my secondary one. So, does anyone know if this is a good HDD? (Do you have one? Have you had problems with it? etc)

It looks good to me, but I haven't tried it

Samsung SpinPoint T133S 300GB SATA2 8MB 7200RPM

Quote[/b] ]Price: ~something like 90€

Title: Samsung SpinPoint T133 HD300LJ - HDD - 300 GB - SATA-300

Formfactor: 3.5" x 1/3H

Capacity: 300 GB

Connection: 22-position Serial ATA-contact (SATA)

Speed: 300 MBps

Average search time: 8.9 ms

Rotation speed: 7200 rpm

Edit: I found something better, so I wont buy this HDD

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Seems fine. As far as Samsung goes as a brand, I've got a DVD-RW of theirs, and it runs fine.

I went straight to the top with my HD though, and got a small but blindingly quick one.

1.6Ghz Pentium M

Hopefully I can play AA at the lowest settings.

The idea is that I can give BIS my money now, and the properly play it when I get another computer in a year or so.

That's exactly what i have in mind
