We're all going insane, but pointless threads like this one won't give us Half-Life 2 any sooner, I'm afraid. :(

I think krarg is right in assuming that Valve no longer cares about showing us how well our computers will run Half-Life 2 by means of a free benchmark. They thought about it and came to the conclusion they'd rather charge us $50 to find out. :)

Amazing this thread wasn't closed 34 pages ago. :)

Extremely inappropriate.

What's a girlfriend anyway?

No, it isn't pointless, Ridic. We like birthdays.

Wonderful story. I especially liked the part where you got the ATi card. :)

I doubt that will do it, Typhon. :)

I'm playing till I pass out.

Everybody's so quick to flame each other, when it's really that person who just doesn't get it. A minute later everybody flames the guy who was making the incorrect assumptions. Here's a thought: The next time you think everyone else got it wrong and you're the only one who understands it...

I've never been this excited about a game before, either, but in the past, I'd say: Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun I waited and waited for months and read previews and read more previews and then I waited some more months and then I rushed out and bought it on the day it came out. Why...

You pretty much said it, Cheater. I think the 9800 Pro will be fast enough to run all games decently for some time, but if you don't wanna invest all your savings in a Radeon 9800 Pro, get a 9600 Pro. Yes, you'll have to update sooner than those of us with a 9800 Pro, but nobody knows how much...
