Multiplayer wise they just confirmed its going to be cilent/server. But outta the box it will be limited to 4 players (2v2 duel FFA etc Seeing its cilent server thoguh hopefully osp or someone will take it up and make it proper multiplayer. I expect they will.
Cant wait !
£149.95+VAT x 1 - AMD Athlon 64 3200 (Socket 754) - OEM (CP-073-AM)Sycho said:What motherboard you using? i am changing mine too, p4 2.66 atm :/ and fx5900 which i am upgrading to 6800 too and 1.5gb ddr ram just got to find a good motherboard for this.My friend who is manager of GAME in nottingham said it's the best fps he's ever played in a long time and the gfx do need a good pc due to the lighting effects mainly.
Also heard release is august 3rd but from gameplay it's the 14th :/ which i ordered from :E
Internationally, the game will take a few more days to make it to the store shelves. The UK will probably get it first, on or about August 6th

I ordered my stuff from overclockers.co.uk also .. top site been reading their forums alot. Like you say seems all GT's do ultra speed outta the box. So thats why i went for that, was going to get a x800 pro vivo and mod it to x800 xt but why bother when u can clock a GT to ultra speeds I think doom 3 will need ps 3.0 too? If not ps 3.0 yet no doubt a patch will take advantage of it.frogster said:Hope you boyz are going for the GT's or Ultra's, and Club3D are releasing their x800xt's by the end of this week, according to Overclockers :O
Jus bought a A64 939 3500 and oh does it fly, you wont be disappointed with the 64's

i take it ps3.0 = pixel shadin 3, if so then that wont be used for 1-2yrs down the line, as both x800 and 6800 cards were reviewd in this month PC mag they say all the added bonuses off a 6800 card like ps3.0 will not even be used.
Mauness said:Sorry man thats not right .. farcry is using ps 3.0 now .. updated in last patch. Games in a month or 2 will be using it. Dont believe all you read. Anyway ps 3.0 offers no visional improovements is only performance improvements. Do a search on google for farcry 1.2 pixel shader 3.0.snoz said:I think doom 3 will need ps 3.0 too?

I got them, and i love them :O
Im very tempted by the GT, i prefer Nvidia to ATI.. no im not a fanboi, as my last 2 cards have been ATI.. what concerns me is the 480 Watt power requirement and the two power connectors..
I have a DVD Burner, CD Burner, 2 WD Raptors and a Maxtor Porn Drive... dont think i got enough juice :l
Unsure of that mobo, only heard epox one and the msi ones as being mentioned as really decent in socket 734 nforce 3 250gb chipset range. True google for review or smtSycho said:It's being used in a new patched version of far cry i thought?
Anyway, is this a good motherboard for a high end pc?

Sycho said:I got a 480watt unit from overlockers for £55 i think or around that, have 4 fans running now and a new case which was £101 from there too(coolermaster) , you going to need that PSU sooner or later anyway really.
Cool thx ill check those speakers, power wise ive read people using GT's in a shuttle, they have 300watt psu ? :] if you got a ok psu you should be fine.frogster said:Aria have Creative Soundworks 6700 6.1 speakers at 54 GBP

Well as many have said before Quakeworld > all and quake 1 was as little made for online multiplayer as doom 3 is. So hopefully it will turn out same would be very uber if it does.Morchaoron said:doom 3 looks great but i have my doubts about its multiplayer mode...
oh well we'll see
