Come on now...I play Doom 3 just fine on my XP2000+ with 1GB PC2700 and Ti4200P Turbo OC'd to 4600 specs...I'm sure my FPS aren't as high as they can be, but I'm perfectly content with the graphics. It sounds like you're trying to tell me that unless I have an Athlon 64, I'm investing in a word processor.


Don't get me wrong, I do realize that the 64 is a much better chip...but let's not pretend that the top level XP's aren't good enough to game with. I already have the Abit, so Athlon 64 is out of the question...I can only get the best XP possible, which will do me just fine.
