| 268065 | 2004-09-04 00:22:00 | >,ill think i shall make note that being able to run doom3 and be a dx9 card are the basis required specs..... just somehow i thought it would turn into that ;-) you might as well just make it a "what you need to run DOOM3" faq....o wait theres about a dozen of these over the net already....... |

| 268068 | 2004-09-04 02:26:00 | Tweak,you missed the entire point of the faq the first time around,now your trying to define the point of the faq to me? The year is 2004,the landscape is doom3 and dx9,and the faq is as much as a buyers guide as it is a general coverall of the video card market. Get it? shall i try again? The faq is to cover the options for someone looking to purchase a video card either now or in the next six months for the purpose of playing games. Go down the store and look whats on the shelves as far as games are concerned,we want to be able to run them,all of them. I know exactly what i'm trying to do,what are your motives? |

| 268071 | 2004-09-04 03:39:00 | If #666 is already taken and this is becoming a monster FAQ then why not use #668 which is the neighbour of the beast? :D |

| 268072 | 2004-09-04 07:00:00 | When Susan requested i compile the faq she advised what number to assign to it so it would fit in with the order she had in mind. I immediatly forgot it,and now its buried deep in my backup of emails,The finel copy im sure will be numbered correctly. |

| 268073 | 2004-10-19 09:18:00 | About to write up a second "beta" video card faq,if anyone has another 2 cents to add then nows the time. Thats not an invition for the righteously deluded folk to start complaining about how weak they are either. |
