Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_gdr.130104-1435)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 (VRAM 4042 MB) 9.18.0013.1407

I have a 670.

Do you have a 660 or a 660 ti?

[Biggs]

I would spend the extra cash. I had two GTS 250's in SLI before, not that great. You could find a good priced GTX 660 on either tigerdirect.com or newegg.com right now, this would be most beneficial.

That seals it for me. Done. Thanks Shane!

ok seriously how the hell do you post pics from your HD into this thread? Yes I'm an EXTREME forum noob. The image insert keeps asking for a URL. Why can I not/how do I upload an image from my pc?

When you log into the Lodestone page with your Square Enix account, you will be able to upload pictures to your Lodestone Gallery. That's what i usually do.

At the top left of the Lodestone page, there's a Login button. When you click on it and log with your Square Enix account, you will then navigate to you personal Lodestone page:



At the top right, you will find a "Account Settings"-menu item. If you click on that, a little menu will appear with a File Management option. Click on that to go to your Gallery:



There you can click on one of the the "Upload"-buttons. It will present you with a little dialog where you either browse for pictures or place then into a "Drag & Drop" box. Once you've selected / dropped the desired image(s), click on Upload to upload the picture to your gallery:



When the dialog has finished uploading the picture(s) to the gallery, close the dialog with the red cross, located at the top right.

The Gallery will update the list of pictures and when you click on the image (in the "list of images" below the Upload buttons), you will get a preview of the picture:



Right click on the image and you can select the "Copy Image URL" option (if you use Chrome as your browser) or select the "Open in a new window/tab". If you've selected the 2nd option, copy the URL at the top of the browser and use that URL when you add an image to the post (i would advice you to use the "Advance" editor on the forum for that). (^_^ )

And there you have it.

If I use the maximum res, it runs off my screen and I can't see the numbers or results, so my results are with 1280x720. /shrug

Any way to try the higher res without that issue?

My Medium score - 8225
My High score - 5483
My Extreme score - 3604

System:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.130104-1431)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz
8183.117MB
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 240(VRAM 494 MB) 8.15.0011.8627

I will be changing my power supply to 650 to accommodate switching my 240 card to a 560. Will this be a great improvement?

So it looks pretty good. I'll be able to run on maximum if I don't mind the same amount of occasional lag I had during 1.0, but I think I'll probably choose something between high and maximum to run the game.

Set it to the max resolution, let it run, and the screen will return to normal when finished.
