Can anyone else please test out Dirt 2 or Dirt 3 and see if it also gives you a BSOD on start up?

Trying to launch some games seems to cause the OS to crash. Notably Dirt 2 and Dirt 3. They are both now unplayable.

No tigerdirect had it on sale with free shipping.

Looks like 9/30 was the date. My ram shipped yesterday!

I built a new PC and I went with the cheapest ram possible ($50, 4GB) just to get it running while I shop around for ram. Is 2133 really that bad for gaming? I'm thinking of just getting three more sticks of 2133.

This mobo is installed in a Fractal Define r4 case with h100i water cooler. I was afraid it wouldn't fit but there's plenty of room. I'm just waiting for my ram to arrive so I can fire it up. I'm going to be using a gt630 for a temporary video card.

I just ordered one stick of 2133 (4gb) just to get my PC working while I wait. Which will have my PC running 12gb single channel with 8gb 2400 and 4gb 2133. Performance-wise, would I be better off canceling the 8gb 2400 and just getting another 4gb 2133 to run dual channel? Eventually...

I've been waiting a few weeks and I still haven't gotten my memory. I have my system built and ready to go, but no ram to get things running. I'm tempted to go down a step and get the value tier ram since it's available immediately. How much does "gaming" ram really matter? The Ballistix line...

Also pulled the trigger on Newegg.ca. Gaming 7 with 5820k for $700

Very good suggestions on this thread, thanks! I decided to go with the Asus fanless 2GB GT 630 for $55. Should hold me over until the 8/9XX series cards come out :)

Is there a release window for the beta yet?

Thanks! After your suggestions I came across this on eBay. I can't seem to find any reviews of it. What do you think? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/GTX650-Graphic-HDMI-2GB-128Bit-DDR5-VGA-DVI-HDMI-PCI-E-Graphics-Card-/311076305436?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item486d97ba1c&_uhb=1 Edit: It's from hong...

I'm building a new rig and almost have it useable. My situation is that I was planning to use on board graphics until the Oculus Rift comes out, then buy a good card at a decent price. Most likely the 880. The problem is that the i7 5820K doesn't have on-board graphics. So I need a temporary...

Thanks everyone. Looks like cygnus's deal is the best in town. Seeing how many people seems to trust him and have a working copy, I decided to go for it. It's half the price (after taxes) and pro version. Can't go wrong... I hope.

That sounds good... too good to be true for the pro version. How is this legit?
