Holy crap, I must be an idiot. I must never attempt using Japanese ever again because I am afraid of how people from the internet see me. Oh Binary, you're such the kidder... Right?[/QUOTE]

Not sure why you think MW2 is a graphics hungry game when it is still using DX9, and is incredibly optimized for older GPUs

Man, I sure should have gotten myself 8GB or 4GB RAM instead of fucking ridicilous and wasted 12GB.[/QUOTE]
You should've listen to my advice
8GB is perfect for you, notice how it [i]only[/i] used up 7.92??
Come back when you have 11.9GB of RAM filled :rolleyes:

I don't do 3D work and never ever said I did.
haha, yeah...
That's only rendering a 1080p movie. If I had only 8GB I would not be able to do anything else whilst rendering it, but since I have 4GB more to go on I can still browse the net and work on hi-res things in Photoshop without a problem.

You should consider buying a Fermi card and enjoy the speed benefits of CUDA

Not a very good choice for playing my games.
I already take advantage of the Graphic card I have when doing stuff in Premiere Pro and watching videos anyways, works like a charm.

Grand Theft Auto IV
Civilization 5
To mention the most resource demanding ones.
I'm talking about Fermi cards not being made and optimized to play games. They can play games of course, we had fermi cards in our school computers, but they are not produced specifically to perform well on them.

Either your school is using workstation cards designed for graphics design specifically optimized and targeted for OpenGL, or they're using a low end consumer card such as the GTS 450

Much possible that I am mixing them up.
GTS 450? That's way too new man. The computers we used were at least 3 years old.
Ah, I think we had a Quadro, don't remember what model.

Pretty much.
And the fermi cards are in the quadro series.
Workstation cards that can also play games.

It's funny that I remembered a dumbass I knew a while back bought a Quadro FX 3800 when it was new, and cried in the end because his thousand dollar plus graphics card can't even out perform a GTX 260 in most games

I was originally talking about consumer Fermi cards (aka GeForce GTX 480), and you changed the topic to workstation Quadro cards based on Fermi. Quadro cards are much more optimized for OpenGL, not DirectX, hence is horrible for playing games.
[QUOTE=dgg;26078598]You haven't either.[/QUOTE]
jeez, how is your ram set out? 3x4gb or what
[QUOTE=Kirrimir;26079688]jeez, how is your ram set out? 2x4gb or what[/QUOTE]
6x2GB
4GB modules are simply too expensive

Ah, I see.
Not moving onto a new Geforce generation in a long while, the 260 GTX perfoms more than well enough at the moment, and as I said I have already tweaked some settings to make my 260 perform the same way a 480 does when it comes to taking advantage of it.

I'm not quite sure what "tweaks" you were referring to, but I don't think a GTX260 can outperform the 480 in anything, unless you are talking about enjoying the same level of optimization or something, not performance.
On the other hand, I'm thinking about replacing my 480 with a 580 in a few month. This card is simply way too hot, and can often raise the ambient temperature of my room by at least 5 degrees while playing a game.
I'll be selling this card by then, contact me if you have any interest in upgrading from your current GTX260

No, I didn't say it outperforms it, I say I've tweaked it so that it also can take the advantage of the same technology. Using the GPU to boost performance in programs.
If you do just say so here, if the price is good enough then sure, why not.

Yeah, but only in specific programs, very specific, so specific it's called Adobe Premiere Pro and it's Mercury Playback feature.

Yeah, it's pretty awesome how Radeon cards are cheaper and has more perfomance yet are still not better than Nvidia in many cases thanks to optimization and preferences towards Nvidia cards in most things.
Nvidia just throws money at everything giving them exclusives, and it works like a charm.
