  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

RED Rocket update...

does anybody have an idea how long from order to delivery the Red Rocket takes to get here?
 
Redline

SDK with rocket support has been out for about two weeks now for mac/win. Linux will be coming soon.

do you think it would support Multiple RedRockets on Multiple macs using QMaster/RedLine?

As soon as we catch up with other features, we'll start adding multiple rocket support.

Since it's command line, it should work the same with qmaster as the current redline.

The new one will also be cross platform.

Ordered ours on 31 August. Haven't heard anything yet but will keep you posted. "3-5 business days to process" is what's published on the website, then there'd be shipping on top of that.

Deanan - anyone

Have any of you tried putting the new ATI 4870 1Gb buffer with the RR?
sure doesnt look like enough room? We also have a KOna 3 Card
Fiber Card.

Thanks

I've put rocket in with the 512MB 4870 in but not the 1GB.

Did some research and its identical form factor as they use a denser memory module... so Im guessing it should work fine... we just ordered one.

Hi Tim,

I'm interested to hear the performance difference. Thanks.

So far, the big difference appears to be in 8xAA gaming... which I dont do
just trying to future proof as much as we can.

Will advise when its in. Should be here Friday... testing all weekend.
Will post results for sure. Meantime here is a link to a review.

that's great news! when this update is done to Redline, will it address the problem of files bein processed out over a network, being capped at 2GB?

Well, there are people "Flashing" the 1GB for MAC... although its strugling with
Snow Leopard it works great in Leopard.

The only thing you lose is analog VGA support...

Some guy is selling an over-clocked 4870 1GB for MAC on ebay.

But Im going the safe route and ordering the 512
