Why would you want to run a high end game and other apps in the background? If you're playing a game, you shouldn't be defragging your system or playing full-screen porn or editing digital audio files... you should be playing your game and that's it. WTF is wrong with you?

Blows my mind when ppl show up with IM open, torrents downloading/upload, large file download taking place or otherwise having obvious performance killers in the background.
Makes no sense to me.
Especially, if it is something like CA or Rocket Arena -- where you are gonna get owned if that is happening.Quakeone.com - Being exactly one-half good and one-half evil has advantages. When a portal opens to the antimatter universe, my opposite is just me with a goatee.
So while you guys all have to fight your anti-matter counterparts, me and my evil twin will be drinking a beer laughing at you guys ...

The typical background software that runs while I play quake is usually
FireFox Bwoser (with a few open tabs)x2
Adobe CS2 9.0 (With few pics open)
Search & Destroy
Deamon Tools
PeerGuardian
MSN Messenger
Azeures torrent manager
WMP 10 (Just idling because I can.)
Telnet session to my Bomber server
WST_FTP connected to Bomber server, Killingpixels.com, SNS site & Bomber site
Conquer Online (Sometimes)
Couple RAR files
Fruityloops (Sometimes)
Bryce 5.5 (Simetimes)
I also run GLQuake in a window at 1280x1024 32BBP
My PC has no problem having this open and playing Quake multiplayer.
Maybe I just have a good setup, I do read reviews on hardware so I know what works and what doesn'tLast edited by Phenom; 05-17-2006, 12:01 PM.
