Lizaa	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:06:00 - [1] Edited by: Lizaa on 09/12/2005 20:08:39 As some of you know I have been gradually upgrading my comp week after week, since about may. I now have my EvE machine working and sadly another 2 (and almost a 3rd) computers(minus hdd's and dvd drives) in spare parts. I started out with a Compaq Pasario, with a 2.6 GHz Celeron processor...then a 3.2GHz Westwood....then prolly my favorite the 3.4 Prescott.(New Pin Config in New Board 775)and voila intel pentium 4 CPU 3.20GHz (2 CPUs). Hdd's went kinda like this, 20Gb ide stock, when that one burned out i bought 250gig ide.(Motherboard change 1) then 2x 250gig SATA..... and finally the last 250gig ide. MotherBoard : Stock(WTF it didnt even have an AGP port for a graphics card) ... then came the P4P800 Delux.. which supported the westwood and the prescott nicely. Finaly ending up with ASUS p5wd2 (intel 955x chipset) Ram was interesting. i got 512mb stock then filled the last ram slot on the stock board, with another 512mb.. but needless to say, once the new board came in i quickly went from 1gb mem to 4gb mem dd2. and finally im at dual channel ddr2. The case was different i kept the stock case for a good time unil the new asus board came in. then bought the super alien case.. Video was pretty simple. Intergrated Graphics on stock. went to the ati all in wonder 9800 pro until the current x1800xl pcie. and this is what I have atm and i will not change a thing about it... Machine name: EvE Processor: Intel« Pentium« 4 CPU 3.20GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 4096MB Dual Channel DDR2 RAM BIOS: BIOS Date: 11/19/05 20:15:36 Card name: All-in-Wonder« X1800 XL Manufacturer: ATI Technologies Inc. Chip type: Radeon« X1800 XL Series Graphics processor unit (GPU) Display Memory: 256MB GDDR3 memory all in all 7 Months and an arse load of canadian dollars, later i got the machine i want and shouldnt have to upgrade for a while now. bottom line peak 124 fps in game(non combat) and 76-84fps combat(non fraps). *Lizaa Director of Grief TacticsÖ* Teh Nightmare Begins... Death is coming ph34r teh Retribution.
Dark Shikari	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:16:00 - [2] My god that is overkill... BTW what do you mean by two CPUs? There are no multiproc P4s, IIRC. And 4GB of RAM is a bit silly... plus an X1800?!! My god you could easily buy 2 computers that would play EVE at the same FPS for that price - Proud member of the [23]. The Tachikomas are DEAD! Click sig for video.
Lizaa	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:22:00 - [3] Edited by: Lizaa on 09/12/2005 20:23:17 well since u know there arent any dual core... Proof *Lizaa Director of Grief TacticsÖ* Teh Nightmare Begins... Death is coming ph34r teh Retribution.
Jenny Spitfire	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:32:00 - [4] Originally by: Lizaa Edited by: Lizaa on 09/12/2005 20:23:17 well since u know there arent any dual core... Proof I think you got the terms wrong. Dual-core cpu is 1 cpu package with 2 identical cores inside. Dual-cpu is normally used to talk about a machine with 1 motherboard using 2 identical cpu packages on it. Dual-cpu, 1 machine, 2 cpus. Dual-core, 1 machine, 1 cpu, 2 cores. ---------------- RecruitMe@NOINT!
Lizaa	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:38:00 - [5] Actually i am right as its a single unit with dual cores. besides that is how windows and dxdiag look at the processor. *Lizaa Director of Grief TacticsÖ* Teh Nightmare Begins... Death is coming ph34r teh Retribution.
Jenny Spitfire	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:43:00 - [6] Originally by: Lizaa Actually i am right as its a single unit with dual cores. besides that is how windows and dxdiag look at the processor. You are not totally, it is just a convention that everyone has been using until Intel came out with this dual-core thingy. It is like Earth's "northern" magnetic pole is at the Antartica and not the Artic. Therefore, the convention is there but mistake has been made and everyone agrees that North is the Artic. ---------------- RecruitMe@NOINT!

Oh thats just a paste of DXDiag? A bit confusing, as it certainly isn't a two-CPU system. Should have gotten an AMD - Proud member of the [23]. The Tachikomas are DEAD! Click sig for video.
Lizaa	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:48:00 - [8] well the board and the programs are telling me its dual core my monitoring prog says dual core with 2 seprate polwer settings. so.. its not the conventional "dual core with seprate cpu's." ima still happpy. *Lizaa Director of Grief TacticsÖ* Teh Nightmare Begins... Death is coming ph34r teh Retribution.

Yup. Runs damn fast And I'm guessing you could run 5 EVE clients at once and it would still be fast... - Proud member of the [23]. The Tachikomas are DEAD! Click sig for video.
Jenny Spitfire	Posted - 2005.12.09 20:58:00 - [10] I dunno, from experience and feeling (probably wrong here), the performance scale is something like 1 cpu < 1 dual-core < 1 motherboard with dual-cpus I think dual-core outperforms about 20% to 50% than its single core equivalent. I havent been following much about this though because I do not need to replace my machine yet. Anybody can summarise for me pls? Thanks. ---------------- RecruitMe@NOINT!

I havent been following much about this though because I do not need to replace my machine yet. Anybody can summarise for me pls? Thanks. Not at all. Dual core, I've heard, can actually outperform dual chip due to them being on the same CPU and being able to communicate at a faster speed. - Proud member of the [23]. The Tachikomas are DEAD!

Is there any benchmark or test? I think there isnt any dual-cpu dual-core yet right? If so, I guess it would be hard to measure. But still interesting. If I remembered correctly, that this dual-core thingy came about because Intel wanted to churn out more IPS and at the same time spread out their heat problems. Guess their marketing unit still owns the computing world. ---------------- RecruitMe@NOINT!

So they slapped together one as fast as they could and released it. - Proud member of the [23]. The Tachikomas are DEAD! Click sig for video.
Jenny Spitfire	Posted - 2005.12.09 21:19:00 - [15] Hmmmm, interesting DS. I think I missed this one out. So, 1. Are all AMD64 dual-cores? 2. Any benchmark on single and dual-core of the equivalent class processor? Thanks. ---------------- RecruitMe@NOINT!

Garik Daemon	Posted - 2005.12.10 00:21:00 - [24] damn thats a nice spec..I have to ask..how much did you spend to get that together? forum rules \| Mail Us

Lizaa	Posted - 2005.12.10 00:32:00 - [25] Originally by: Garik Daemon damn thats a nice spec..I have to ask..how much did you spend to get that together? all in was a shade over 3500cnd, just mem and vid card was 2k. board and chip was another 1500 if i include the case and drives.... *Lizaa Director of Grief TacticsÖ* Teh Nightmare Begins... Death is coming ph34r teh Retribution.
KilROCK	Posted - 2005.12.10 00:33:00 - [26] Awesome comp, Ability to switch to long range ammo in a fleet battle, priceless

Where did you buy all this stuff? (im canadian btw)
Caanan	Posted - 2005.12.10 03:21:00 - [29] what makes me curious is fraps running on intel vs amd when i record eve with fraps on my pentium 4 i get like 200mb a minute, my friend on his amd 3200+ gets WAY over that, and hes recording with the same version of fraps and same res
