interesting thoughts, i havnt ever done a symlink/junction before need to doing some learning on that one
i like the idea though, but i did think having USER redirected to another folder seemed a easy swap
if i could get windows to do that on a fresh install
Domingo, im with you on that...
i feel stupid i forgot to mention my mobo GA-H55N-USB3 and my gpu is 6870 XFI
i think i may buy a £50 after market cooler for my gpu its load iv never done this
for any gpu in my life! but this one is annoying
i already have a shuriken revB on another pc running a duo2 6700..
the thing...
i was thinking more like tricking or moving windows USER to the X:\ drive, so when you go to your profile whatever your doing the whole thing is in its NEW default place!
then whenever you go to install a program it by default chooses x:\games\
hmm... still this leaves a messy start menu and...
ok, i tried to find out how i can make a "MAIN GAME" folder BUT with save folder
for example
X:\games\
x:\saves\
But then i thought why not make windows install to that drive as default becuase after all its my gaming
rig!, then i thought there must be a way to put my documnets in the X:\...
on my pc i have my documents and also a public folder, im the only user and i just want this machine to run my games. I have no idea why their is two folder under user for gaming i dont even want to be a user just my programs. Then it gets worse there are two program file folders

I am trying to install all my games in win 7 64bit, and have a drive
C:\games\...... to include all my game installations.
Is this possible?
I would like to use games explorer but i find that the start bar menu gets full
of crap!, id like one menu system to control this rather then two...
right heres what i was thinking, my cpu has stock cooler with it , so il just use that with it for now
then il buy a h50 add that vertical , plus try and find a better cooler for my gpu 6870 , and add these upgrades later on, i just cant seem to find something good for the gpu noise is a issue...
iv looked at the results OC the ram but on normal atx builds.
if i brought ddr3 and 1066mhz, could i really get it to 1600mhz on a itx mobo?
note: i have no idea about the lantacy timings, but lower is better i believe, i dont want it unstable so am abit confused, worried i might make a...
just came across this , simply amazing stuff
im trying to build a sg05 too soon i hope, i was just thinking of the h50 never done a water cool or much mods before, so im learning its all new to me.
i have a question - IF you could build the sg05 Case yourself how would you design, thats what...
hello im back, havnt been able to do as much research into this build but im back on the task!
right looking at this http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1539848, shows me that a h50 wont fit in like this person arranged it, Sideways that is becuase my gpu is too long and the h50 will stick...
yeah i was thinking of waiting for the sandy bridge stuff, but i thought what the heck and ordered the i5.
anyway, the h50 seems to be ideal for me, side mounted sounds a good idea, il have to measure the 6870 when i get it i think its 9inch card.
SFX thats what i couldnt remember! THANKYOU, i...
thanks for the info, and answering some of my questions!
mobo -
i cant decide which mobo to go for im thinking MI-P55-T36 or Gigabyte H55N, this is what most other users seem to have gone for with good results.
ram -
Iv checked the ram prices out and it seems some 4gb kits are nearly...
hello, been here before and and tried to make a build list for a itx case but reuse old parts.
anyway im back, and forgot the old parts i brought
intel i5-760
xfx 6870 1gb
i plan on either a sg05 or sg06 , 450watt version as i need the power OR find a psu that will fit instead
ok...
sorry i should have metioned that, the case i have has ONE single regular expansion slot!
im also hunting for the best single slot gpu i can find, or i have a 4850 which i could buy a new heatsink for but its more likely that a newer card would be cheaper and better proformance ( i would like...
