oh ya, that would be crazy... if I'd had money I'd get myself a P4 with 800 MHz FST and atleast 512 of RDRAM...

in case you guys care. I've got a 550 Celeron Crying or Very sad

this sucks soo much, I have to fight my bro for it cuz he's a jackass. I'm getting a job this summer (or starting a charity) to get enough cash for a new laptop. Why laptop? So I can lock it away.

octopi.... why win2k and not xp pro?

Personal preference, I have tried xp, and well didn't like it, I know I can change the way it looks, so its back to normal (windows 2000 style) I just prefer win2k.

ATI Radeon 9000 pro 128mb
512 DDR333 PC2700 ram
19" Flatscreen monitor
AMD Athlon XP 2000+
40 GB hd
Nice, eh? All that for $1200 CDN (with shipping and tax)...video card's kinda bad though

See...my dad knows the Vice pres or pres of M$ canada, so we got office xp pro and windows xp pro for free (plus tons of free xbox games)

lol... radeon 9000 pro isnt a bad card man... its equal to the geforce 4 ti 4200 with 128 ddr... now if it was made by a not-so-good company... then yea it is bad lol

Martin · **Posted:** Sat Apr 26, 2003 10:19 am

No, it's only a little bit faster than the geforce mx 64mb...and the funny thing is, the 128mb 9000 pro is slower than the 64mb 9000 pro

check this place out, it has the default clocks for the GPU's... even some of the speeds of the MX series are faster than the Ti series... lol but the 9000 is about equal to the ti 4200... and mx 440 lol

clocks arent a very good mesure, you might want to look at some benches

jamez · **Posted:** Sun Apr 27, 2003 3:29 am

What he said.

Blade · **Posted:** Sun Apr 27, 2003 11:18 am

if you go down, then you'll see... you can look at benches from 4 games, and 3dmark2k1

and depeding on what game you are playing is how close the 9000 series is to it.... but mostly geforce 3 ti 200 ... sometimes geforce 4 mx 440 - 8X

Martin · **Posted:** Sun Apr 27, 2003 12:14 pm

That seems pretty wrong

Like saying that the Radeon 9700 pro is slower than the Radeon 8500 (not pro) and even slower than the geforce 4 ti 4200 64 mb...

those are clocks... just like the difference between athlon xp and p4... p4 is faster, and so is their bus, but the athlon xp is a better chip, it can render faster than the p4's... look at the comparasions between the xp 2700+ and p4 3.06..
