Offtopic Hey dude will 8600GT be able to play assassin's creed and Crysis at medium to high settings??

I heard Assassin's creed is gonna be a helluva game.

I was offline for a few days.My brother told me that nvidia is gonna release the Geforce 8700 GTS and GTX model Graphics cards based on the G92 architecture.The reason why nvidia is doing this is because of the poor performance of 8600GT which sometimes performs poorer than a 7600GT.This poor performance credit goes to nvidia spending little time with the 8600 core.However I expect that the 8700s will be really good as nvidia would have corrected their mistake.Coming back to your query a test squad has stated that their is a significant performance improvement with 163.44 drivers and now even newer drivers for support Enemy Territory Quake wars demo are out.The DirectX 10 performance of 8600Gt is good but i don't know if it fairs well in DirectX 9 but that's what's important cause assassin's creed will be DirectX 9.As far as crysis is concerned don't worry about its cause its been optimized ground up for the pc so expect good performance at 1024*768 at medium-high(not ultra)settings in DirectX 10.If Assassin's creed is under nvidia's The way Its meant to be played program then the 8600Gt will fair well,note crysis is already under this program.

harvy spelling edit please on your first post, hellgate london role playing not roll playing

u cud also add neverwinter nights 2 mask of the betrayer because im sure many people like neverwinter nights 2 and want the official expansion, its in my want list
also add tabula rasa, brother in arms hells highway, kane and lynch dead men
and how can u not add fallout 3

harvy where are you edit this we have to make this one of the best sticky threads

Sorry @entrana i didn't add Brother In Arms Hells Highway,Kane and Lynch Dead Men and Fallout 3 cause the release dates for these games are still not decided and also these games will probably be released a lot later.

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

Thanks dude.I heard 8700GT will be priced around 9k(199$) initially so you think it is worth waiting for instead of buying 8600GT now?The 128bit interface of 8600 series su*ks big time.

Yes the wait is worth it.I am also going to buy an 8700GTS(512 MB 256 BIT) this December or when its available for my older machine which i use for surfing,i am gonna upgrade it as it almost dies sometimes on boot.

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

So 8700 is gonna be 256bit.That's a huge relief.

 

[entrana]

cool harvy ur back anyways im just suggesting games to make the thread better btw what happened to ur net
update the first page too most people see the first page not other pages

 

[Harvik780]

cool harvy ur back anyways im just suggesting games to make the thread better btw what happened to ur net

As always the net was down for 3 days.This is regular here.It goes atleast two times a month,in the beginning and in the end of the month.I have heard that sify has a Rs1.1 k unlimited plan but sify is the worst ISP as many people have complained against sify for unfair trade practices .And its the only alternative i have.

Its not possible to add more than 15 images in one post,however i have given the link to the new page and will always do so and inform the members as to which pages to visit for the list of games.Oh i heard gamer tv gotta go.Already saw that one on the net.

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

[off topic]Don't ever think of sify they are the worst ISP in the history of broadband(atleast in INDIA).Go for AIRTEL if it is available at your place.[/off topic]

 

[entrana]

i use sify and i use that unlimited plan what a luck ^_^
one thing great i experience here is that they NEVER have downtimes and like 3 times in a year slowdowns but its all good its just expensive which i dont like but here too i dont have any alternatives, and bsnl and other stuff are full of sh!t and give things that they are not capable to offer so i suggest if sify is fine for u get it

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

If sify works for you then that is some real good luck.Anyways I was suggesting if Airtel is available then go for it otherwise go for sify.

 

[entrana]

airtel sucks in my area

 

[abhi_10_20]

[entrana]

[Harvik780]

Hope so as well

 

[Harvik780]

I played the Demo for Enemy Territory Quake Wars.I recommend it to anyone who wants to play a multi-player FPS game and has a decent broadband connection.BTW the single player mode sucks.The graphics are awesome due to the over tweaked Doom 3 engine.

 

[entrana]

DOOM 3 ENGINE!!! i though they were creating a new and better engine
