Hi Guys,
New to the forums.
I have a nVidia 8800GT and an ATI HD3870. Is there one that works better with the GSdx graphics plugin?
I am also thinking about picking up a GTX 285. Do you think that would increase the performance at all? I know it doesn't utilize CUDA but it is a really powerful card. I read somewhere on the forums that CPU matters way more than GPU.
Also, when I open a game full screen I am unable to exit or get to windows no matter what keys I press (Ctrl+Alt+Del, windows key, alt+tab, ect). Is there a way to exit full screen mode using the keyboard?
I still have some tinkering to do. I haven't been at this very long (more accurately haven't had time), in fact I don't even have a controller hooked up to my PC yet. Perhaps that's why I can't exit a full screened window.
I had a less than impressive opening screen of God of War, it was a bit choppy, I'm hoping its a configuration error.
Q6600 3.0GHz
Asus P5Q-E
HD3870 (but I may move the 8800GT over if its better supported)
8GB PC-6400 G-Skill
XP Pro (32-bit) for now till my TC Electronics gets their act together for 64-bit drivers
120GB OCZ Vertex SSD (after I order it tonight!!!!!!!)
74GB Raptor
640GB Seagate 7200.10
This should run it fine right?
Thanks,
JOe K.
