Oh, I thought the top end stuff was getting smaller? It was until relatively recently. Maybe it's increasing just because it's ATI???

Yeh it's probably just ATI but computing technology is starting to reach heat limits for processors and the like, unless everyone starts getting water cooling newer stuff will probably get harder and harder too cool down. I think there going to start having more then 1 proccesor on a motherboard (I think they already do).

Idk why but your comment made me think of that.....
I know I'm not that up to date with new tech I kinda fell out of the loop a couple months ago, and I know you are so if I get anything wrong I'm sure you can correct me =P, or not.

Maybe I should put in my Sig somewhere a warning about my random replies.... >.>

Hi, Aza

It's all good here. This is a discussion in a public Forum, so all is well.

My next rig will definately have extensive water cooling, if I must build it myself. I would rather have a smaller, less expensive rig with overclocked CPU and GPU rather than a much more expensive one with better performance out the box. However, we are talking about learning some skillzzzz.

If you fellas read my Topic " PC Technical Relationship to IL-2 ", then you'll see that I am presenting information to reveal how there are a bunch of other factors besides just out the box processing speed. It is possible to get better IL-2 performance from a lesser chip set. Today, I am adding more useful information in the nHancer subtopic.
