I saw the original editorial and thought they might do that. Will Smith was quite impressed. Unfortunately, I don't have my copy of MPC yet to read (I was hoping it would come today), but this continues to affirm me that MPC knows their stuff. I'm also looking forward to their cover article as I'm going to build a new PC and look forward to playing Sins on there.
Yeah i was actually wanting to get my hands on that issue when i say the cover on this post. I`m also soon-to-be in the market for a new PC. Mine is decent. was kick ass in the day. but its over 4 years old so i need a new rig at least this summer.
Whats cool though is i`ll be saving money on one part for my next PC. The sound card.
last fall i got myself a SoundBlaster X-FI XtremeGamer. I wanted to check it out and thought to myself that it would be transferable to my next one anyways so i wasn`t wasting money. that's 150$ right there in savings lol. And yes, for those who have been wondering if it`s worth it. Holy moly is it ever worth it. The difference, without tweaking the settings, was clear compared to my old SB live i had. It was like my music was reborn. Adjusting the settings to your Preference, turning on the crystalizer(which can increase CD quality to BEYOND CD quality, im not kidding), and switching the video card into Game Mode (Game mode only available with the XtremeGamer and above, Yes the video card has 3 mode:Game, Entertainment and creation. Yes the processor behaves differently in all of them. Yes they sound radically different) with your custom settings is a blissful nirvana+heaven+mega awesomeness of audio quality. I wish they would put that in everything, even cars and movie theaters.
Anyways. yeah, i need a new PC lol.
