I'm a broke ass soon-to-be college graduate. Once I work enough in the area, I'm moving to a place where the sun shines, every studio gives me 30k tri limits, and I get to use 4k texture sheets for everything.
Actually it was a work pc, from my Employer, it came with a std 250 w Sparkle, laughs, brand psu and I tried my 300 W Seasonic to no results. Yes and no beep beep on start up, I think she bit the dust.
Yeah, just a touch of color somewhere that draws attention. Shameless to use my own work, but this for example: http://www.laurenscorijn.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/002-700x388.jpg would've been a lot more boring if that red and yellow wasn't there.
I'll be the first to agree the slow motion stuff in 300 was great for absorbing the eye candy... Unfortunately, it was overdone. There's also a small section in this trailer where I'm certain he's at it again... Let's just hope he doesn't ruin this film by constantly doing it.
my "super" laptop died a few months ago, bit of a shame I can't get it fixed without sending it half way around the world for a 700GBP price tag. It's a dual pentium4 3.2 and would undoubtably kick this macs benchmark into the dust.
i'd assume they're building the top lod to be suitable for closeups. eg. 2-300% screensize I wouldn't be surprised to see car models in racing games approaching a million triangles by now. that's cheating though cos they don't get skinned

Hey man! that works great!! Couldn't figure that out by myself, thanks! What about scale then? :3 It appears that the display value on the spinner: 1, 2, 3 corresponded into 100%, 200%, 300% value on the standard tti box..hmmmm..
Fixed the knees and finished up with the character (minus the sword and sheath). Will start unwrapping once I got her weapons retopoed, and would be happy to hear any thoughts or suggestions in the meantime. Just made it under 30k with 29885 tris!
Yes, it is way too high. I'm guessing you just used an auto-topo solution. That boulder could probably be reduced by a factor of 20. As an example, the hero character from Uncharted 4 is only 30k. The cinematic version double that.
