Same here, all my ram is pc133 even though I do not need it, but it is good to have. pc133 SDRAM is overall a better memory to have, and when mobo come out( I am not certain if any have been released yet) for Slot A that support pc133 i'll be upgrading.

HEHEHHEE yeah true..i never thought of it that way. I got Asus p3b-f. the problem was..i should have waited to get a new pc..i got it in november (and a few parts in december)..should have waited this summer.

Sparhawk: Slot-A mobo with 133 Bus: ASUS have had the K7V series of 133 RAM bus and 200 FSB. The only thing is that it uses the VIA chipset. I would recomend it and I like the VIA chipset. My machine has the PentiumIII Cu version of this mobo and the K7V got very good reviews when it was released. See http://www.tomshardware.com for more. StarFyre: I would imagine that mobo (Being ASUS) could set the Processor:RAM speeds at a 3:4 ratio so that the PC133 would be at 133mhz while the processor was at 100. My ASUS certainly has that option (P3V4X). -Shivoa Just updated... http://www.sacrifice.org.uk/ |

Sunama: Adding detail will NOT be a problem. Any of the maps we ship with the game should run just fine on most of the machines mentioned in this thread ('sept the ones < than 300mhz and such). However, you WILL see dramatic visual improvements, even on those maps, up to prolly a 1.5ghz CPU w/NV15 or equivalent. Moreover, the level creation tool will ship with the game. There are virtually no restrictions on what folks can place in their own maps. This practically guarantees that folks will be creating maps that will FAR, FAR outpace even the mightiest machines that will be available for quite some time. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it takes a 3ghz CPU + NV25 to really max Sacrifice out in the most detailed levels possible w/tons of creatures everywhere (even then, I'm not so sure). http://forums.voodooextreme.com/smile.gif Still more powerfull machines will simply continue to drive the FPS up.
