Friday 2010-10-15 Dev. update and Discussion

[ARGH]

like i said, i built this i7 / gtx 480 rig for the future games. i watercooled it's components with a corsaid H50 on cpu and the new Coolit OMNI on the gpu for silent running because i do not like loud systems. it's also sporting a mild overclock on the cpu and gpu.

i built this system specifically for final fantasy 14 (too bad the game sucks right now, jesus!) and storm of war. it completely maxes out final fantasy 14 including 16x AA, Dof & AO enabled.







the graphical fidelity of this game pretty much the same as wings of prey, although it will have more geometry and better damage model. i know wings of prey can almost be maxed out with a 260 GTX and the GTX 480 is over twice as fast so i am confident that it should max the game out. maybe oleg will state what the recommended system specs will be to play the game in ultra to high settings at 1080p?....

lol, this thread is for talking about dev update, but a water cooled pc? wtf?

Nice rig, I woudn't worry about what some say. They can't help it they ride the short bus.

Nice set up, ARGH. I especially like that case and am interested in what you think of the vertical fans. Who makes it? Thanks.

Oleg, great speech, a tune of land-of-hope-and-glory in the background and it would be quite stirring.

Oleg; it's interesting what you say about the colours changing throughout the day.
have you ever looked into this, out of curiosity?

I´m rather sure the water cooling is a bit overkill without serious overclock. I have i5 750 clocked to 4GHz on air (noctua nh-D14) and GTX480 in a very well ventilated case http://elements.thermaltake.com/ (the model with side fan). I have the upper fan set on 5V instead of 12V to lower RPM. With such configuration it is no more noisy than a mid range notebook. And yes, it can max out Rise of flight with mostly 60fps and 50-56fps over very large cities. and also fly pmdg J41 over 40-50fps

If it is not a rude question what sort of price range are you looking at for that please?
