actually i wouldnt call a 2% increase any noticible difference.

are you finding you need a performance increase with your card? mine seems to chew everything up and spit them out lol

it seems to be a noticeable difference to everybody who says that apple still sucks because the g5 lost to a pentium/athlon by 2%

:D at my middle school, in like 6th grade, one of my teachers took a whole lesson to explain the "misleading graphs" thing, but yea, i do know what you mean :no: i can't believe people still fall for that.

ahh i hate ati's drivers. 3.7 is the last set that actually worked fine for me. my pc lags with these installed and the stupid smartgart sh!t always sets agp to off (which makes absolutely no sense) and turns off fast writes.

i have a 3ghz pc by the way and a radeon 9800...

    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
    • I have been using Firefox for years.
    • I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
