[05:30:05] what is best 2D videocard? [05:30:36] bjblahs, you're joking, right? [05:30:40] no i am not [05:30:50] why would i be joking? [05:30:53] Probably the voodoo 2, or does that have a built in 3d accelerator? :P [05:31:06] Uh, you'd be joking because any card on the market right now has 3D capabilities. [05:31:13] And there is absolutely no reason to get a 2D-only card. [05:31:26] i didn't ask for 2d-only card [05:31:36] i asked for what is best best 2d card [05:31:44] :| [05:32:10] That card you're talking about, do you want it to be able to do 3D as well? [05:32:33] no, i don't use 3d [05:32:44] Aha, so it's a 2d-only card, correct? [05:33:03] not necssarily [05:33:06] :| [05:33:40] What's with these assmunchers hanging around here at night? ;/ [05:33:50] Asking questions like "how do I install a keyboard" or "what's the best 2D video card" [05:33:50] :/ - bjblahs is ~Spritemen@67-140-226-94-dialup.ath.cx * werdplay bjblahs on #dvdr #hardware bjblahs using irc.Prison.NET The Decepticon, server stealing your energon.. bjblahs End of /WHOIS list. - [05:34:04] Brutus` not everybody cares about 3d 4 05:34:04 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:34:09] i only care about 2sd [05:34:24] Nobody's forcing you to use 3D [05:34:33] But you just can't buy a non-3D card these days [05:34:38] Stores have stopped selling them YEARS ago [05:34:42] Like...7 years. [05:34:45] If not more. [05:35:05] Brutus` well i don't care if it does 3d as well as long as it does 2d better 4 05:35:05 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:35:11] Better than what?! [05:35:20] All cards do 3D exactly the same. [05:35:23] EXACTLY the same. [05:35:45] really? then why is one more expensive than the other [05:35:54] Because of 3D demands, obviously. [05:36:05] uh [05:36:06] bah [05:36:07] but you just said they do exactly the same [05:36:13] [05:35:20] All cards do 3D exactly the same. <-- I meant 2D. [05:36:15] Typo. [05:36:33] Brutus` that's BS 4 05:36:33 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:36:48] Look, any card you'd get in a store these days does 2D exactly the same, 3D power is the reason why one is more expensive than the other. [05:36:50] RuKK, you there? [05:37:14] i don't believe that's true for 2D or 3D [05:37:38] Well, some people still don't believe the world is round. [05:38:09] if you truely believe that, why don't you believe all cards to 3d same [05:38:16] to = do [05:38:24] Uh, cuz that's not fucking true, that's why. [05:38:31] exactly [05:38:49] that's exactly what i feel when you said all cards do 2d same [05:39:02] Look there is absolutely no difference between two dimensional objects displayed using a GeForce 2 MX 200 or a GeForce 6800 Ultra. [05:39:41] However, when it comes to 3D, you can clearly see that even the GeForce FX5200 for example can't run Doom3 very well, however the GeForce 6800Ultra, can. [05:40:17] And if you think I'm wrong about this, you're either a nutcase, or know absolutely nothing about what you're talking about. [05:40:18] Or both.

[05:42:26] Now, are we done here? [05:42:32] so i can use 10 year old videocard and it would perform exactly same as current cards [05:42:35] doe 2D [05:42:38] bjblahs, no dude, no. [05:42:40] for 2D [05:42:45] Listen carefully, I'm going to say this ONE MORE TIME. [05:43:27] Any card that you can buy at a store, today, even the cheapest one, will perform exactly the same as the most expensive one in that (or any other) store as far as 2D goes. [05:43:44] I am not talking about some old ISA card that you pulled out of your 486 or god knows what, that's totally irrelevant. [05:44:29] even that i disagree [05:44:41] Fine then, disagree, frankly I don't care. [05:44:47] hah [05:44:48] Good day sir. [05:44:51] im buying that card [05:44:52] :) [05:45:01] building me a super pc for doom3 for under $1200 :) [05:46:00] Brutus` GeForce 2 MX 200 won't be able to play T2 Extreme edition 4 05:46:00 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:46:17] since you gave me that as example [05:46:43] haha [05:46:49] his card wont play doom 3 [05:46:50] or half life 2 [05:46:53] or F.E.A.R [05:46:56] T2 Extreme Edition? what? [05:46:56] or world of warcraft [05:46:58] nuff said [05:46:59] :P [05:47:10] P-Optik what is funny? [05:47:14] P-Optik, what the fuck is this guy talking about? [05:47:24] Brutus` what card you have now? 4 05:47:24 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:47:33] bjblahs, GeForce 6800 GT. [05:48:06] Brutus` do you have GeForce 2 MX 200 or something equivalent? 4 05:48:06 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:48:19] Well, I have a Riva TNT2 somewhere around here. [05:48:29] That's kind of similar, I guess. [05:48:45] * chaiz has joined #hardware [05:48:49] try playing T2: extreme edition ; you won't be able to [05:48:59] What the hell is T2: Extreme Edition? :| [05:49:29] Some sort of old dos game, or waht?

[05:49:50] Brutus` 4 05:49:50 P-Optik is beeping you in #hardware [05:49:52] hes on crack [05:49:53] How about you tell me, in words. [05:49:54] no idea [05:49:57] P-Optik, yeah, thought so.

[05:51:03] heh [05:51:07] bjblahs, look at that page you linked me too [05:51:16] Part of the minimum configuration is [05:51:20] " 128 MB 3D video card" [05:51:22] i dont click on any links on irc ;p [05:51:25] So it needs 3D, not 2D. [05:51:35] So you just got owned, by microsoft o_O [05:51:39] Brutus`: you oc ur 6800 gt to ultra? 4 05:51:39 P-Optik is beeping you in #hardware [05:51:46] Brutus` T2 is a movie 4 05:51:46 bjblahs is beeping you in #hardware [05:51:47] P-Optik, no. [05:51:51] bjblahs, so? [05:51:58] gt are good overclockers [05:52:00] bjblahs, the page clearly states you need a 3D card. [05:52:00] well some are [05:52:11] P-Optik, well, I'm out of cash, if I fry this, I can't afford another. [05:52:26] And my GT is working just fine, haven't had any lag and I'm running WoW on full graphical settings. [05:52:27] heh ok [05:52:30] since when you need 3d card to watch a movie [05:52:31] cool [05:52:35] i've been dying to play WoW [05:52:37] been so busy [05:52:39] bjblahs, since microsoft said so. [05:52:41] bought the game a while ago [05:52:43] bjblahs, it's your link dude, not mine. [05:52:53] movie = 2d [05:53:01] film = 2d [05:53:05] P-Optik, if you're gonna play, play on the Gorefiend server, me and spamalope are there. [05:53:18] ok [05:53:19] will do [05:53:30] bjblahs, DVD = 3D. [05:53:37] That is, the DVD interface. [05:53:53] lol [05:54:00] * Brutus` sighs [05:54:04] You know how when you turn on a dved [05:54:07] dvd* [05:54:09] You've got that menu? [05:54:17] With all the "play" and "extra features" and everything? [05:54:22] Well, that's 3D. [05:55:19] Atleast, on some DVDs.
