Unfortunatly there will always be a new toy, only weeks after you buy/build a new PC it is obsolite

[jamikey]

Yeah really, I build an amd athlon 2200+ with 512 DDR RAM and an nvidia geforce ti4600, I didn't even get a cd burner or dvd player. Now i wish i would have waited and just bought one of the ABS diablo series for less and dvd/cd burner. =(

Speaking of hardware, you guys think i should get some new stuff to run PlanetSide, if so what? (And no GeForce4 or whatever, i don't have 500$ to spend on computer stuff )

AthlonXP+ 1.4Ghz
256Ram(DRR)
Sound Blaster Live
GeForce2MX400 (yeah i know it sucks )

upgrade your ram to 512 atleast... ull need that just for minimun specs... i would go up to 1024 if you can spend it... then maybe get one of the new cards coming out i have read that some of the vid card companies will be coming up with $100 dollar cards that can run doom III at optimal spec so i see no problem why they wouldnt be able to handle planetside... gonna cost u about $350 to do this but should give you a significant boost to your system

Yeah i knew i would have to buy some ram for PS (and i do mean for PS cause i don't need it for anything else).

As for GPU i want to get a new one but i just don't have the cash to spend on it right now (too many DvDs i want and NGC games )

I'll probably get a 256 of ram and check how PS runs then decide.

[Hamma]

I'd go with more ram first

[�io]

Yeah that's what i plan on for now, 1-I'll have min requirements and 2-Cheaper.

I got into EVE beta by having friends in high places, but to be honest, the game just didn't suit me. It was an extremely beautiful game, but the whole playstyle and setup just wasn't me.

Hopefully I can grab a spot on PS beta... at least I know my dxdiag file is good and solid... :P

If you want to make this "beta news" thread usefull you should delete all the posts and lock it. That way only staff could post in it and the actuall beta news wouldn't get lost in the spam.

Just a thought.

Or we could just unsticky it, and start a new one once Beta starts. Everything in this thread is OFN these days.
