phil stanbridge Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Just curious really. I'm using a Pentium IV Northwood overclocked to 2.54ghz, 512mb PC800, and a Geforce 4 Ti4600 Ultra partnered with a lovely 22" Mitsubishi monitor. CM rocks on this rig. Can't wait to see how CMBB fairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juha Keratar Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 166 MHz AMD, 32 Mb memory, 12 Mb Voodoo 2 as 3D-card, and the results shown on 14" Panasync. And yes, it won't run CMBB, and I won't be updating my hardware anytime soon. -Lunael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted July 6, 2002 Author Share Posted July 6, 2002 Jesus mate, I feel for you.. Really I do.. If you live in the UK you can have my second rig. It's a Duron of some sorts (haven't fired it up in ages) but it's a whole lot quicker than yours.. I think it's about 600mhz or something.. Sorry buddy just ready your' profile. It was a Celeron by the way, not a Duron.. [ July 06, 2002, 07:44 AM: Message edited by: phil stanbridge ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By this I mean to use batch process to reduce resolution or size of each texture file. I will see if this will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I get my new machine in the mail and configured for school, work, and play, you can have it. Wouldn't get more than $50 for it anyway. At least you could connect two voodoo cards together and perhaps be able to run CMBB that way. It really does need a home. I'd hate to see it go to waste. Oh, to answer the original question: Currently: 450MHZ AMD K6III; 200+MB Ram, Viper 770 TNT2 non ultra video card. In the mail: AMD Athalon 1800, 512MB 2700 DDR ram, GeForce4 64MD DDR ram MX440 video card. CMBB should scream on it.

Redwolf Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 450Mhz PII, 256MB and 128MB ATI Radeon 8500 LE(?). The video card is overdimensioned and the CPU can't get any better speed out of it than my previous Matrox G-400, but now I can load all the mods I ever wanted. As a reference, this system is slightly too slow for bigger CMBO scenarios with full mods, plotting gets hickups. It even works for Fire on the Mountains, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juha Keratar Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Thanks Diceman, but there's a little distance problem here. Anyway, playing CMBO certainly isn't as bad as one might think with this old rig. Bigger scenarios are little slow to run, but I don't play big scenarios anyway. The scale I enjoy, battalion of infantry with max of company armor, runs ok. Of course, I can't be too liberal with modding the game. I've been keeping my eyes open for used computers, and here in Finland it's pretty easy to find something like 800 MHz machine cheap. I trust I'll be playing CMBB next winter. -Lunael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just recently built myself a new rig. 1.8 ghz Pentium4,Leadtek Geforece ti 4400, 512 mb of ecc RD ram, Santa Cruz sound card, P4t-e motherboard, and it's inside an antec server case. I used all top noth components and i still saved myself well over 1000$ then if i went oem with less quility components and little room for uprades.

phil stanbridge Posted July 6, 2002 Author Share Posted July 6, 2002 Agua - nice system.. Pretty similar to mine apart from the memory What does the R133 signify on the mobo? Curious as I use the TH7-II as well. I'm using beta bios at the mo to get the most out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karch Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Sorry to cross post, but I started a thread last night to test the speed of different computers/processors. It's in the general forum under speed test. I'm really curious to see the difference between some really high powered systems and the amount of time it takes for them to process the same turn. The newer generation of Pentiums really look fast. Please try and download the turns and post your times. Thanks. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Thanks Phil. Those are speed demons. The "R" just means it has a built-in RAID controller, and the "133" just means it supports the ATA133 HD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always considered myself to be the one with the worst system on this board. And now you come along... Upgrade immediately! If you don't I will be forced to downgrade PPC 166, 16M VRAM, 19" sony. But it runs fine (smaller scenarios) and I have no plans to upgrade now.That might change after CMBB is released, but I think it might be enough.
