I was thinking the same thing about the CPU. But it has genuinely surprised me. Every demo that I have played, including Crysis, has allowed me to select maximum settings with absolutely no problems. I only play at 1440x900, so that may be it.

[QUOTE="branhillred"]

I just got my first gaming pc, but I totally forgot the games. At the moment, I need one pc game that will last for a about a month until I have the money to buy another. I really would prefer a shooter to show off my graphics card. Do any of you have any suggestions?

Specs:

Intel Pentium Dual Core 2.6 GHZ

BFG GTX 260 216 Maxcore

6 GB Ram

But your cpu will bottleneck it badly.

I am having a tough time deciding between those two games. I know Resistance 2 has a subpar campaign, but the multiplayer is great. But I have heard Fallout 3 described as game of the year material all the time. Which game should I choose at the moment(I can get the other one at Christmas)? Edit: Next time, use the Game Recommendation Thread for these types of questions. A message from the mods.

I have my PS3 hooked up to my 22 inch monitor with a 1680x1050 resolution. I feed it a 1080p signal and it downscales it to fit the screen. I have read online that it damages the monitors to do this. Is that true?

I know that Greatest Hits came out last Monday, but over the past week, I have not seen them anywhere. Has anybody bought them? And if you have, could you post pics?

I was wondering, how do queue downloads(in other words, have one thing automatically download after the current download is finished)?

Not really. The Sony component cables are $25 U.S., and if you go to monoprice.com, you can get HDMI cables for under $10.
