    Did you stop to think that maybe he had just registered ,saw this interesting thread and replied.
    Do you really think the account was made purely for one post? :rolleyes:

    Considering he's on one post, yeah i do. People usually create an account when they want to post first as you don't need one to browse the site, suggesting he created the account to make the post :rolleyes:

    tbh think it is total Bollocks that the GF 4 cards won't work, they used Smartshader 1.4 too and were MUCH faster the the 8500 ATIs


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 6,524 Mod ✭✭✭✭dregin


    Hopefully there'll be a work around of some sort. Ordering another HDD but I just donh't got the cash for a new GFX :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 939 ✭✭✭Zyox


    If it's a physical hardware requirement I doubt you can work around it. It wouldn't even start and your card would just go "argh pfftt ouch" and spew errors.

    Serious pity, my ti4600 runs everything ffs, first time I've seen a game do this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,613 ✭✭✭Big Nelly


    According to Gamespot they had no probs running on a 9800pro but the big thing is memory....they had 1GB which I have at the moment and the load times took a life time....so its seems memory is the thing to upgrade before anything!!

    You're just gonna see more of this. Shaders are more and more important now, and the 4600 only has two v.1.1 pixel shaders. Compare that to a 6800GT with 6 v3.0 shaders instead. Switch up to just 6600GT or so and you'll really notice the difference.
