I played a new system this weekend

I was at a place called Microcenter in Chicago. They had a one-off gaming
rig, assembled by some company I had never heard of. It claimed to have 1G
ram, an Athlon FX 64, and an nVidia FX 5950 Ultra.

I played MaxPayne II, and Unreal II.

It was pretty... but I was left unimpressed. for $3000 I thought it would be
more responsive.

Just thought i would share...

Those run fine on my rig (XP2000+/512MB/FX5600) so it wouldn't make
much of a difference on faster h/w apart from turning up res and AA,
etc.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
