Heh, Paul's a carebear :p
Yeah, I'm out in 0.0, oddly enough in the same systems as Gary at the moment - he's in RAZOR, I'm in PURE both alliances are part of the Northern Coalition. Beating the crap out of Tenal at the moment. I havn't seen Empire since our little war down in the south which was about 3 months ago. I moved my two characters to 0.0 just under 4 months, my main is well over a year old now, but he's a carebear. My alt is only 5 months old, but PvPs considerably better even despite the Amarr handicaps.

Hiya,

Hmm not sure about the anything will do :) Running an Athlon 2400+ PC with
an Nvidia 6200 gfx card and 2 x 17" TFT`s gives me single figure framerates :( 
Maybe I need to look at changing some of the graphics settings in the game
itself but every combination I`ve tried looks crap :(

Main is Badgerface and 2nd char is CharlieCat (Yes I know I suck at naming
characters ;))
As you mentioned fleet ops, I guess you`re out in 0.0 so you won`t see me and I don`t think I will be for quite a while. I`m busy running research and stuff in Empire and they way things are going I will be doing so for quite a while longer :) 

Cheers for the info ref the card - I`ll have a look around :)
Paul

Well EVE doesn't really use the graphics card, so anything will do. I can run two EVE accounts on dual screens on a 7600GT and a Pentium D 3.4GHz. Runs fine, but those fleet ops can be pretty choppy when both characters are present. 

What's your character names Paul, I'll give you a wave ingame. ;)

Hi All,

I have an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum board here and have just installed an
AMD 3800+ X2 939 CPU which runs quite nicely but having run some tests
using 2 monitors, I find that my old 4600 Ti card can`t hack it any more
so am looking for recommendations for it`s replacement :)

The end plan is to replace my CRT`s with TFT`s (probably 2 x 20") and
run 2 Eve accounts, each with it`s own monitor. I`ve done this with a rather cheap and nasty GeForce 6200 256Meg and 2 x 17" TFT`s but the frame rates 
are lower than I`d like.
Budget is a bit restricted currently so I have approx £100 to spend on the card :( 

TIA
Paul
