Lasereth: Not that it really matters or I care but I don't know that many rich people or people that only use their computers for gaming. $500 for just a video card is out of almost everyone I know's league. It doesn't matter how wicked the video card is if the price is out of your reach. If you can afford a bleeding edge video card you should be able to afford a bleeding edge or close to processor along with everything else computer. I never did say I recommended processor over video card for any gamer but I still don't disagree with kevin recommending a processor. We don't know if the person had a game only machine or if gaming was just a hobby so you can't really say anything is better over the other. As far as all those benchmarks they really only test video card speed and not processor speed, also what self respecting gamer is going to buy a GFX5200? The 5200 doesn't even keep up with a GF4 Ti 4600. Another thing about your benchmarks, they're wrong I've seen an ATI Radeon 9600XT bench better than 17.6 fps on a AMD Athlon XP 2000+ so it definitely is gonna do better on a 3.2Ghz pentium 4. All in all it still boils down to you haven't shown that kevin was wrong. Further than that I don't care anymore, I know my pc and game stuff and utilize it for function rather than debate. Back to the main subject at hand.

I was recently able to watch the new screen savers and I must say OMG G4 has transformed it into absolute crap. Everything about the show from the script, set, dialogue, topics is crap. What the hell was that overclocking a toothbrush crap. Seriously who really yearns to shave milli-seconds off their brushing time at the risk if harming their gums. I couldn't even watch the whole hour, after 30 mins it was clear that tss was forever lost/murdered by G4. Comcast is the devil and should go back to hell.
