Yeah I don't get it either. It's not like the game is re-initializing each time is it? Even a game like BF2142 which can use upwards of 700 MB of RAM doesn't take that long to load.

It would be so much more useful if games supported physics on SLi graphics systems. If you don't need the extra graphics card to do your physics, then you can just use it for graphics in SLi. That way if you don't need the extra physics, the card isn't sitting their doing nothing and being worthless.

LOL It's weird, I'd like to maybe pursue the idea but yeah she is the sister of a friend of mine. Although one other thing is she just turned 17 and I just turned 20..............at least she's pretty and smart, not some mindless foolish girl.

Yawn fest............PC gaming has gotten less expensive over the years as compared to console gaming. Even still, PC gaming is more expensive than console gaming.......*kinda*

Let me explain my madness:

We all need a PC, so when looking for a practical, and good PC we tend to spend a decent amount of money, a modern dual-core processor, 1.5 or 2 GBs of RAM, fast DVD-ROM drive, etc. These are all good and somewhat necessary attributes for a good practical PC in today's world. As a tool it helps with gaining access by gathering information from the internet, applications let you create and manage work and projects, and these files are stored on the system as well nicely, neatly and conveniently. This is a practical machine for your "needs" and maybe a little bit of music playing and a game of solitare here or there.

So for the cost of a modern game console like the Xbox 360, one can add a video card (like the 8800GTS 320 MB) that hands down beats the Xbox 360 in all graphical regards. If you're a hardcore PC gamer, you can also appreciate the cheaper games for Windows as well compared to their console bretheren as well as the much bigger selection. Now you say "but it'll be obsolete in 2 years! With the Xbox 360, it'll never be obsolete until the next one comes out!" Interesting yet questionable noob logic this is, as long as the game supports the 8800GTS it'll look better on the PC version. This is 2 years down the road and the 8800GTS has become a minimum requirement of course. Understand? Even still the associated cost of game production and the ease of it porting between the 360 and PC has created a high volume of games released on the PC and 360 at the same time. Considering the idea, it's likely that as long as this is done, and few PC developers continue to push graphics because of porting in mind, that 8800GTSs and similar hardware will actually have a really long lifespan. Even though I am planning on replaceing my desktop after having it for 3 years, I do think the 8800GTS at least will have a lifespan of 4 years easy.

So I think we can all rest easy a bit. Considering what we get based on the idea of a practical machine as well as the ultimate gaming platform with a library of titles as vast as a library of books, I think it's a great deal. Plus cheapter games ahahhaahahahahaha.

The supposed minimal requirements are quite reasonable for a game that has as much potential graphical beauty as it does. A 6600 compared to an 8800GTS these days is like comparing the GeForce 2 to a 6600 back in the day when Far Cry was still young and Far Cry could run on a GF2, hell it'll run on Intel GMA 850, I would know, as it would run on my Tablet notebook which had that POS graphics processor.

I expect requirements on order of Lost Planet's. An ATi Radeon X1300 or Nvidia GeForce 6600GT for minimum requirements, and and a GeForce 8600 for recommended specs in DX10 mode.

"Tell Me If You Still Care" by SOS Band. Does Nintendo still care about gamers, or is it now all about the money? BLOL I doubt it.
