EDIT: Just look at how scrappy the HL2 coastal/highway maps turned out - blurred textures, simple brushwork, chunky displacements, unnatural fog.On the coast levels, I turned up my settings from 1024x768, trilinear, high models & textures, etc. to 1280x1024 and 2x AA/AF. Same 25-35 fps on a MX 440. Yay for shitty looking levels
I want Nine's picture. I need fapping material.
And Dave, we can't all be as lucky as you are and afford MX 440's. Gosh.Stereotypical gaming computers are a dumb idea to me. Super reflective cases, flashing lights, noise and heat are just stupid. I want a fast computer, not a noisy disco ball/space heater.
