I built a computer, and I must say, PC Gaming is not impressive at all. What was all the hooplah about? Even the graphics (Crysis) which are so highly touted are hardly better than consoles.

That's funny, because I've never found console gaming impressive, just passable, "meh".

You must not have a flat screen over 50" and Surround Sound capable of Lossless Audio.

Console Gaming is much better.

Shame you have such nice hardware (if your not lying), and not making use of it. Go back to your consoles then and give that PC to someone more deserving.

[QUOTE="Vaasman"]considering that TC doesn't even know what DX9-10-11 is I'm going to assume that is beyond his skill level.

Vaasman

Well apparently I have a DX11 card, so i don't need to do all taht.

I agree, PC gaming is not impressive...now, relax, let me explain why i think that.

Sure, the graphics are above everything else, and i say, that is quite impressive...then again when it comes to the actual game is not impressive, now, i'm not saying is a bad gaming device, because is not, i'm a huge RTS fan and i love StarCraft with passion, but my point is, that unlike what some Hermits try to "prove" the PC is not the almighty device with games so good and out of this wrorld that an ordinary human mind can't understand, i say PC gaming is as good as the Console gaming.

madsnakehhh

You know absolutely nothing about PC Gaming if you think that way, I'll start with just a small sample of games that prove you wrong:

Play these games then get back to me ;), and as I said this is just a minor part of PC Gaming.

How can you hate on the iPhone? The only reason whatever phone you think is better is out is because of the iphones greatness.

And I don't have 2 iphones, one is the wifes.

[QUOTE="lowe0"][QUOTE="Vaasman"]So just curious here, but why would you buy a gaming PC if you don't like PC gaming? How does that make any sense? A 5870? Really? who buys a 5870 just so they can play games they apparently don't find impressive.

[QUOTE="millerlight89"] Why would anyone go into PC gaming so blindly with a computer like that? It is just a waste of money. I have the exact same setup + one more 5870 for CF and I think I wasted money and I play my computer all the time. Such a waste to spend that cash and turn around and gripe about it. I mean the guy does not even know what directX version is which, that alone indicates he knows very little about the hobby, or is just baiting people. GioVela2010

I edited that post to give you an idea, but I say that because I was like you when I built my pc 2.5 years ago, I just recently fixed it up.

q6600

tuniq tower heatsink

p35-ds3r mobo vista 64-bit

geforce 8800 ultra

seagate barracuda 500gb hdd (OS + page file)

western digital caviar black 1tb hdd (games on a 60gb partition)

6gb crucial ballistix ddr2 ram

I'm just recently playing mirror's edge and on max settings (except for AA) things load almost instantly and there is absolutely zero stutter. I have a ps3 and a 56' 1080p and the game is vastly superior on my pc. I am going to overclock soon, my cores run aroun 35 degrees with zero load because of how I applied my Heatsink, you have to get the heatsink:

-oriented correctly in the case

-proper distribution of thermal paste

-screwed on extremely tight, almost to a point of breaking the mobo

before I installed the heatsink right my cpu was around 60degrees with no load.

He wanted attention, and he got it. :?

http://www.gamespot.com/features/6202552/index.html -- that should help ;-) The differences are not extremely significant. I mean both console and PC versions look fantastic, but the PC version is definitely on top.100000

Notice the PC version has been gimped to give the consoles a slim chance. Resolution has been scaled back for console resolution. Try comparing running at 1080i or even 2560x1600 with all settings maxed out then you will see a massive difference. It's like past gen vs future gen :)

[QUOTE="Vaasman"]More importantly how does someone build his own PC when he can't even tell which cards are compatible with which version of DirectX? My guess is he payed someone to do it for him if he's even telling the truth, in which case lol.

Who buys a 5870 and thinks it's DX9?

I smell a troll here. He posted no proof that those pictures are his.Maybe this is some pathetic attempt to bash PC gaming, or the TC must be bored.

you sure like showing off man but your attitude is really bad. why did you build that rig when you have no interest in pc gaming?

[QUOTE="millerlight89"][QUOTE="Vaasman"]So you buy 2 Iphones and a PC, that you have no idea if you'll like or not, with hardware you have no idea how to optimize or update, to play games you probably didn't even turn AA for, just to end up coming to a forum to tell what you thought.

I think that PC gaming is more immersive.

My first argument is: I have a 46" 1080p Panasonic plasma, connected with a PS3, Xbox 360 and a HTPC (specs: i920 oced to 4 Ghz with W7 64, 6 GB DDR 1600 Mhz, Raden 5870) and on the other hand adesktop (spec: Q6600 oced to 3 Ghz, 4 GB DDR 800 Mhz, GTX 275) that is connected to a 20" 1680 x 1050 Viewsonic monitor. I currently sit at 65-70 cm from the monitor and at 250 cm from the plasma, so the huge 46" only covers about 22º of my field of vision compared with the 38º that covers the 20" monitor.

So, the bigger size of the screen doesn't work at all, since gaming from a couch is usually too far away to truly take advantge over the bigger degree o vision with the monitor. Also, console gaming doesn't sustain multiscreen 180º gaming as ATI Eyefinity does. And couches aren't mandatory better than my Flendit Royale chair. Also, my LG Home Cinema audio isn't better than my Logitech Z-5500 Digital + Soun Blaster Fatal1ty Titanium combo, at all.

And there's another reasons due I like more to play in PC, but I just stand here in the basics, since I already known that this discussion will never end.

[QUOTE="rabakill"] that's why it's such a serious hobby for some people. It's not cheap, but the performance is worth the effort. If you want something easier to use go for a console, that's why they exist. They are an inferior product in terms of gaming but you get what you pay for.rabakill
