wow zio, you honestly belive that t2 never had any problems? christ, how retarded are you. i had 'top of the line' hardware too with my geforce 2 ultra, and it crashed nonstop. it crashed on my v5 5500 as well.
and its the asine thinking of "you want high details, you must have high end machine, if not stfu' is why alot of todays game engines sucks. They are all made by dumbass coders whose only idea of performance is not better code, but better machines. F.E.A.R was an example of this, where it's a pretty engine but runs like crap. HL2 is looks even better, and runs smooth as silk on all systems.
