OK, T'birdy, I'll take the Pepsi challenge....run CS VST @1024x768, max detail (reflect all) w/o AA/AF and post your score....let's see if you can do 130fps....Quote:

Edit : I know VST relies alot on CPU speed too, but I think the 9800Pro's gonna bring down your fps...but I could be wrong. So, show me the money! (as Jerry Mcguire said):D
VST?
In CSS, there's a benchmark called VST (Video Stress Test) ;)Quote:

yes,well... this is the reason he doesn't have such nice big 2003 or 2005 scores ;).Quote:

Ya...my 2001 scores suck for now. I just can't do a new rig right now. Still hanging on with a Northwood at 3.7Ghz and an X800XT-PE.:)Quote:

Yeah it was a very long and hard labor. She was in labor almost 48 hours before we ended up having to have a C-section. He just wouldn't come out. But all is good now.:) We were REALLY tired though.:)
Awesome vert! Congrats! :D
My wife is about 2 months (a hair less then that) out now and you and C-man are scaring me a bit though....30 and 40 hours of labor?!?!!??! Holy crap!
Well congrats man! Be sure to game while he is sleeping, because you probably won't get a chance whiles he's awake. LOL! Both of my kids were born in March, I don't know what it is about the month of July, but it must be good. ;)
July is the month I'm getting married... so ;)Quote:

But the doctor didnt allow me to watch below the little tent he put up over the parts that were being cut... So I couldnt watch the actual operation....
The doctor said that to many guys freakout from the site of watching their wife/gf/fiance/whatever getting cut into... So its a hospital rule not to view the operation part...
But it was a long and stressful labor... But once they got the drugs (spinal tap) she was good to go.. No more cursing me like a sailor.. No more threads of lack of nookie :D No nothing, she was feeling good.
But damn the drug dude came in, and he spoke so slowly that I thought he was on his own creation! Man he freaked me out. But heck if he uses it himself, it must be good :D Its a joke that my wife and I still talk about today.. But she doesnt remember it cause she was busy with other things...
Got to love the every 4 hour feeding :D Congrats on being a father, it is alot of fun for the most part. I didnt know if I wanted a boy or a girl first.. I guess I prefered a girl cause I didnt want to deal with the little water cannon yet.. To many horror stories... :D
Now my little girl is 4 and can install some computer hardware. I am being told she is very cute. So I will have produced a cute geek!
muahahaha!!!!
WOW.:eek:Quote:

Yup I was stuck behind the little tent too. She was laying on the table in what can only be described as a "crucified" position. I was right by her head talking to her the whole time. The drug guy in charge of the epidural actually offered to let me stand up and photograph them pulling him out of her but I declined. I was afraid of passing out. I've kind of got a weak stomach and I didn't want to make a tough situation worse by falling on the ground.:)
The water cannon is loads of fun. He shoots it right over his head often. Luckily he hasn't pee'd on me yet but he sure has done a great job of peeing everywhere as soon as you get the diaper off. I'm sure you've also encountered the "I'm just waiting for you to take off this diaper so I can finish that crap I've been working on?". As soon as that diaper is off little guy starts pushing. Thats some nasty stuff.:D:)
Feeding every 4 hours? This guy prefers the 3 hour routine, and he eats a ton. He took 9 ounces within 3 hours once at less than 2 weeks old. Normally about 4.5-5 ounces every 3 hours. He loves eatin just like his Dad.:D:)
Here's my first pic of me and him still in the operating room.:)
