Well, I’ve done some investimigation and have come to the conclussion that EA are at fault (or at least are the main culprits). Basically my board was a stop-gap so I could do a slow transition from AGP + DDR, to PCI-E and DDR2, which it seems to be doing admirably, with the exception of the latest BF series.
Oh dear, I fell ito the same agp to pci-e trap and went with an asrock dual 939. Legit is right, it sucks, I should’ve splashed the cash at the beginning and would’ve had a rocking system, now I’m stuck with this till I go intel core 2 duo route
I had horrendous agp(ati x850) and PCI-E(ati1950pro) performance across all games till I downloaded and installed all drivers from their website and installed them. With the agp it was definitely an agp driver for the mb that fixed it, not too sure what it was for the Pci-eXDC Dutchman

neither am I completely. And another thing that has always bothered me about photorealistic artists is whats the friggin point?
Just buy a bloody camera! in fact in most cases all they are doing is copying a photograph anyhoosAgreed, plus the camera would’ve saved them the alleged 70 hours to ‘paint’ this

Didn’t the original people get killed and Ben join the first inhabitants of the island who it looks like have been doing experiments for even longer. Now by my count that’s two groups of people (+ Jack and Co who crashed). U think there’s a 4th group of ppl?
Originally it was the Dharma Initiave people, then Ben joined what could’ve been a bunch of Lost people and killed them. But, Dharma is surely more than just the bunch that was there on the island, but due to the communications scrambling they’ve not been able to find the island again, so I reckon that’s Naomi’s bunch of people on the boat.

I’m curious to know when Jack and Clare will find out they’re related?
Hopefully before he kisses her. He sure is playing the field ol Jack, Kisses Juliette, tells Kate he loves her, who’s next ?

Hey can you tell me something. When they did the flashback to Ben as a kid and he met that guy in the forest (Richard I assume?) Why is it that Ben has then aged but that guy pretty much hasn’t?
What else? U know the VW van, did they try the radio or the tape player? The only reason I ask is because the music’s the same in the flashback as when Hurley’s taking it for a test drive.
Dunno and dunno

I assume also from the fastforwards that Kate and Sawyer end together.
I thought so too, initially, but then that’s what they would want you to believe, just so that they can rip the carpet from underneath when Sawyer dies early in season 4.
Maybe it was her kid ? Think bout it, Sun and Jin couldn’t have kids because he was infertile, but the Island gave him supersperm and he got Sun pregnant. Now Sawyer and Kate had sex, a few times, and I reckon she might be pregnant. Why else when the Others came to the beach did they come for 3 people ( 3tents ), as they only came for pregnant women, Sun, Mystery women and KateWho’s in the coffin ?
I reckon Ben, only thing that makes sense really. Nobody knew him as he was a young boy when he went to the island and grew up there. Kate wouldn’t want to go to his funeral as he was the leader of the others.XDC Dutchman
ParticipantSpoiler alerts later in my post, warning, warning !
Awesome finale to the season, hope the Heroes writers were watching and taking notes
I believe there’s only another 3 seasons, 16 eps each, so we’ll only see season 6.
Spoilers if you haven’t watched it yet:
I think despite the FlashForward, we’ll be seeing them back on the island next season, finding out what the Temple is the others/Ben talked about, seeing the bad guys(Naomi’s people, the original Dharma people ?) finding the Island, finding out more about Jacob and the smokey monster
And I think they might be done with Flashbacks and that the Flashforwards will be the way to go. That way the questions will be posed via the flashforwards, and the Island scenes will be more revealing ( as oppossed to season 1-3 where flashbacks answered questions about people/things and Island scenes kept posing questions )XDC Dutchman
ParticipantGotta agree with Insane on this, If it happened to me I wouldn’t not be pleased at all.
But would a ban from the forum drive him away for good or make him come back worse than before like the Scream sequels
?

ParticipantOnly found one review HERE and they beg to differ on the performance thing, seems like it beats the 8800 GTS everytime and close to 8800GTX at times.
But power and noise are their main complaints, plus you can get a 320mb for well under £200 now, SLI two up or go for a 8800GTX for not much more that the 2900 cards which seem to be around £280-320.With former ATI R600 fanboy Madhax out of the equation, who’s going to be the brave XDC’er to splash the cash !

ParticipantPlease remind Ms Max to have the camera rolling when you dive in and the thing bursts and floods the garden and house.
You may wanna floodproof your tv room, don’t want that Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, Wii, Sky hd, 42″ Plasma, £1000 Speakers and AV receiver to get wetXDC Dutchman
