<div class="IPBDescription">Not a problem, but a query anyway</div> Well, It seems that with other games besides NS...(Yes, I do play Enemy Territory) I set a higher resolution+high graphics settings, not only do i get a better looking game but better performance, Anyone know why that is? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The short answer is: They were designed with this card in mind, whereas half-life was designed 4 years before that card was even theorized. Basically, HL does not make as good use of better hardware as a newer game.

    On the other hand, those games will not even run (much less run well) on older video cards that HL uses very well... time marches on.
