  1. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4K555xL7wwg Have a good one (how could you not after seeing that?)
  2. Try downloading the UT3 beta drivers (169.28) and playing Crysis in DX9 mode. Crysis lives and dies by it's AI, the open world and dynamic combat means there's alot of room for error if the AI doesn't respond properly. I've started playing through it again, there are some great set pieces, and the game makes you feel like a fucking hero sometimes.
  3. I'd open a shop called "Rogers' and Sons Poultry", people would walk in and promptly get raped by six black men.
  4. I have that 8800 GT, the "XXX Alpha Dog", note I would've bought a GTS 512 if they were out at the time.
  5. It's nice to know it supports Quad SLI, lest any drug baron PC gamers degrade themselves by only having 3 of the things.
  6. *Runs away with tail between legs*
  7. I just changed my fsb from 333 to 350, seemed conservative enough, I have a freezer pro 7 so temps shouldn't go too high. I can probably go higher, but until I know more about this I'll leave it as it is.
  8. A couple of new pics, PC complete with new speakers and tiki. Don't look at this picture for too long unless you enjoy migranes.
  9. Can someone explain to me, in idiot speak, how to overclock a CPU without making my PC spontaneously combust.
  10. http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=149080 You can probably make more sense of this than me, but they seem to like it.
  11. I know, I was pulling your leg. Anyway, everything looks good, I assume you're not going to be using the stock heat sink?
  12. I hate to be the one to tell you this mate, but I think you're forgetting a few things...
  13. I've just ordered a new set of speakers for my PC, I want to improve the sound quality of my games, but I don't listen to music on it. I've been looking at sound cards, and I was wondering how much of an improvement one of these offers over the on-board sound I'm using at the moment. Is it worth getting one, or will the new speakers be enough for the music and sfx I'm hoping to get the best out of? Merry Xmas, Duncan.
  14. On my (inexplicably and ever-so-slightly) overclocked 6750 I swear I've never touched it, I don't even know how to OC CPUs.
  15. Ugh, I have that PC downstairs, mine doesn't even have 1 PCI-E x16 slot in it. You'll need two of these to run the 2 GPUs, and a better power supply would probably be a good idea too. If I were you I'd go for 2 8800GTs; they're harder to come by at the moment but they're awesome in SLI.
  16. I do, as an Orangem'n I hate the thought of being associated with those penny-pinching bagel munchers.
  17. Orange Jews! I find that deeply offensive btw.
  18. on the subject of strange conversations at the dentist's - I went a few weeks ago because I was experiencing pressure on my back teeth due to my wisdom teeth coming through. The dentist, an attractive young woman, told me that it could be due to teeth grinding, and eager to impress her with my knowledge of medical terminology piped up, "Oh, yes, that's called Priapism isn't it?" She hadn't heard it being called that before, so when I got home I typed it into Google. I'm not going back there again.
  19. Paint me converted to Crysis, Just started my second play-through. My favourite thing about this game isn't it's graphics or it's gunplay, it's the fantastic score that makes you feel like you're playing through an Arnie film.
  20. Eidos interactive's Kane and Lynch: Dead Men is a fantastic game that pushes the boundaries of interactive brilliance and DON'T LISTEN IT'S A TRAP THEY'RE GOING TO KILL ME OH GOD NO PLEASE N Edit: Apple_NibdiB here. Sorry About that. I am fine. I was joking. LolEND MESSAGE
  21. I have an 8800GT, the XFX "Alpha Dog" edition, and it never gets hotter than 50 degrees, whilst my GTS could regularly get up to 70 degrees during long gaming sessions. I know the cooler is smaller, but I think because of this it's freed up a lot of room in my case to let the air move more freely.
  22. UT3 is fucking banging. I cancelled my GT order and went for a GTS SSC, at least there's no stock shortage, and it'll work as well at my native resolution.
  23. My 8800 GT STILL hasn't come, they're now palming me off with a Friday arrival (just in time for UT3 but too late for my Birthday). Has anyone ever dealt with "Advancetec.co.uk" before? I'm not convinced by their service.
