    DX10 card in 3 months?

    Yeah, but it'll still be nice to have a new card for when UT07 comes out.

    Bad news on Core 2 Availability.

    I wish I coulld have waited out the storm and have seen how things are going to play out; to see which mobo everyone liked best and to be able to have a Conroe in my hands less than a month after I ordered it. But I have to build my system before I start college, so that really left me with a...

    Bad news on Core 2 Availability.

    You can email them and ask what place you are in line on preorders, silly goose!

    Bad news on Core 2 Availability.

    Not good news, although I am 45th in line for my 6600 at Tankguys, so I hope I still squeak in. But I do think they ordered from 4-5 different distibutors at once in case something like this happened.

    New THG Conroe tests... wow

    Absolutely. That's the main argument for even owning a top-notch PC. Consoles are much less expensive, but offer little beside games.

    a8n32-sli doesn't like this heatwave...

    Ugh, I know, my compy has really not liked this heat. My video card has been runs sorta hot already, and the heat in the room has been a consistent 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 Celcius)! Not good, although it usually starts to cool down in Colorado by mid August.

    Poll: Which Core 2+Mobo Did You buy?

    E6600 and an ASUS P5W DH Deluxe; all the parts are here except for my Conroe. It's driving me nuts, although I am really glad I ordered from Tankguys, their service has been absolutely five-star.

    E6600 vs. E6700 is it worth the extra $$

    They are essentially the same chip (same transistor count, cache), except with a different multiplier (6600 = 9x, 6700 = 10x). The performance jump between the two is negligible in gaming.

    Army of Two - 360/PS3

    I dunnno. EA has a way of lame-ifying FPS games. The Battlefield series could be so much more, it lacks the visceral feel of a game with guns, along with almost every other EA FPS.

    7600GT or X800 Non-Pro?!?

    The X800 XL doesn't support Shader Model 3.0; it also probably doesn't get as solid framerates at the 7600GT. Also, comparing an overclocked card with a card at stock speeds does not generate an accurate view of performance between the two.

    Those that PO from Tankguys..when will we get them?

    Intel. Way to launch. Tards. But I love Tankguys. They are definitely my favorite etailer; I mean, what other site is telling their customers exactly what's going on?

    Evil Genius

    Evil Genius is definitely one of the better games in terms of originality and art direction, although the plot of the game leaves much to be desired. Red Ivan is definitely useful, and traps are one of the best parts of the game! The Evil Genius license was sold to Rebellion Studios after...

    Dell is now selling Conroe in their XPS

    Hehe I built my Conroe rig for $400 cheaper than the equivalent XPS! I would have thought that the difference would be a little less than that... Building FTW!

    7600GT or X800 Non-Pro?!?

    I have a 7600GT for now (see sig), and it runs Oblivion fine on high specs (although without AA or AF). It's a good 'tide-me-over' card.

    how much is my pc and lcd worth?

    Definitely. You would probably be able to sell it for more if you list it in the newspaper/on craigslist than if you sold it on eBay. I would say that 95% of the population could be convinced to buy a comp like that for $800 just by seeing the monitor; if you have an onboard GPU, I would say...
