I just upgraded my athlon 500 with sdram
to an athlon xp 1900+ with 512Mb of DDR
I was playing a video in the Kazaa preview window, and another in windows media player, and streaming a third off of the internet while running photoshop, chatting and downloading videos. all of this was running in the background, and i still got a respectable 13-20 fps in morrowind.
posting a screen shot cause i think its cool
