  1. Wait, Wait , Wait , WAIT, You are abusing the accounts by giving your ex wife's account away

    Not when the previous account was known as Dragon Queen not Dragon_Queen... notice the underscore :P And besides... she had her name changed to Gir before she left. So it's fair game.


  2. Skypokemon... you're right that it combines processing power.... CPU wise... but graphically, 10 computers with video cards that support ONLY Pixel shader 2.0 won't magically support Pixel Shader 3.0.. They'll still support ONLY Pixel Shader 2.0.. Most NEWER games need a video card with support for Pixel Shader 3.0.. No amount of graphics power from a bunch of outdated video cards can run a game NONE OF THEM SUPPORT!!!


  3. You want a fast computer?

    get a motherboard that can support 24 GBs of ram..

    BUY 24GBs of high endurance ram

    get an intel i7 processor... AS many GHZ as you can find

    get an uber expensive yet useful cooling system for said CPU

    get the latest Video Card from either ATI or NVIDIA

    get several terabyte hard drives

    get a power supply worth 1000 watts..

    get a full-size comptuer case that doesn't look like s**t

    $1,000 later and VIOLA!!! There you go!

    You can't play a game that requires a video card with support for Pixel Shader 4.0 on a bunch of computers with Video Cards that only support pixel shader 2.0


  4. Clustering computers is mostly useful in Render Farms. Pixar most likely rendered movies like Toy Story in this fashion. just makes getting large amounts of work done fairly quickly by having each individual computer do a part of the task you want. However, as for video gaming, you're still s**t out of luck as each computer has to still meet the requirements to run the game.
