you probably cant play asteroids on a new computer, without buying a retro game, as my dos based asteroids wont run on a dos-less windows xp.

i prefer to deathmatch on unreal tournament, the original, as its just more fun when there is less to a game.

gta3 runs like crap. its hardly worth installing, when the ps2 is so much better.

nvidia does give very good prices - right on line with the ati cards. its when you buy a card from a manufacturer that buys nvidia chipsets, adds other features, and then stamps their name on it and charges 100$ extra, that you begin to realize who's gouging. hell, this chipset was probably tested on something fun like mentor graphics, which runs well over 10000 $ per workstation.

of course, you are just the guy badmouthing them cause your computer cant handle their badass chip, so what am i to do? consider upgrading your ram, and definitely a new processor, as you happen to have one of the few amd's that no one wants :P
