LOL, sounds about right.

lifting too much can actually decrease strength and get you no where

 

[Nightingale]

Yeah but then once you heal your stronger Possibilty of Nvidia making a winner next time around?(only time will tell)

 

[Sniper_83]

Yes, but I think I will stay with ATI. I am satisfied with the products this far.

 

[Nightingale]

yeah I am not a fanboy myself. I just go with whoever has the better product and I love good competition between large companies.

 

[NewbiePerson]

not necessarily.
Lifting too much can actually cause muscle degerneration causing you to be weaker. So lifting every other day allows your muscles to heal making ur workout more worth while. Many like to have one day to a different muscle group. Upper body one day lower the next. Then some work on section once a week.

 

[Nightingale]

Yeah at my HS we have a workout sheet that outlines the workout for each day of the week so I tend to change muscle groups and usually rest a day or so that way I can still get to class on time

lucky

since you've got the 5800 already indulge in it! Dont think about what u could have cause its a good card all in all. I mean its better than my 5600ultra and thats good enough for me.Iplay lots of games on it. Yes my scores on the benchmarks may suck compared to the best cards but when im playin a game i cant tell the difference that 10-15fps make all that much anyway.I dont have the kind of money to upgrade my pc the way i would like to so i try and be content with what i have.well anyway i would feel lucky to have that card.HAVE FUN and forget a bout the scores!

You know i don't see why you ppl OC the vid card. Is it just for numbers or is it to try and force an older technology as close to the new stuff as you can. It has to be hard to see the difference with your own eyes during game play. The only differenc that you can see is in the numbers, or is that the whole point. To have impresive numbers.

Well we are overclockers aren't we? Besides that, There have been several times overclocking my video card improved gameplay. My GF2 overclock helped out Counter-Strike a good deal. C&C Generals actually ran faster after cranking up my GF3. At the moment, any little bit I can squeeze out of my 9500pro is appreciated while playing Morrowind. It seems no matter how far I upgrade my system, there is some software out there that will tax it. Its nice getting the most for your money too. If there is a setting I can change for any type of improvement, you can bet I will change it. That's part of the fun!
