Morning Discussion
by Xav de Matos, Aug 26, 2010 5:00am PDTYou've probably seen the links in previous chatty posts by now but in case you missed it, check out the ComicCon trailer for AMC's The Walking Dead.
Since the series isn't landing until October 31, I've decided to ruin the entire experience and read the graphic novels. Well, ruin might be the wrong word as AMC has stated that the adaptation is based on the series. This means it may see a number of changes, which fans may just have to start dealing with now or decide to ignore the show entirely.
Sometimes changes work out for the better; however, sometimes changes can ruin the overall message or experience. For example, Watchmen was completely destroyed for me when the film decided to pull Dr. Manhattan's final, haunting lines of dialog and give them to a different character rendering them utterly meaningless.
What do you think about changes to source material? Do you want a carbon copy or something more tuned to the new medium it's being translated to?

I just installed it and... my TF2 performances are actually worse :(
I'm still randomly dropping 20-30fps for half a second and my average is 60-80 fps running at 1280x800.
So either something is wrong or my CPU or another PC component is crapping out on me.
Anyone have suggestions on software/benchmarks that could help me determine what is the problem with my PC ?
Or was I lied to and going 9800 -> 460 was useless ?
