I don't know about you but THAT was the kind of crap that made me quit the game in the first place. Running MC every night for months and never getting the drop you wanted was infuriating.
I recently decided to start playing again and I am SO happy that everything is now more rewarding to the...
Agreed. It could've been a LOT worse. As long as her parents aren't finding used rubbers and piss filled coke bottles then I would say she was lucky. :cool:
You saved yourself a ton of time since you already have the game discs. You'll only need to download a small patch afterward and you're set.
1) Install classic WoW.
2) Install Burning Crusade.
3) Install Wrath of the Lich King.
4) Start WoW
5) Let Blizzard Downloader update your game...
50-59 BG bracket is freaking stupid right now. Nothing but Death Knights running around. The other day, I was in Arathi Basin with 14 DKs and myself as the lone non-DK. I think I'm gonna hold off PVPing for a bit until the DK craze fades.
Ventrilo has superior sound quality. Teamspeak has a more user friendly interface. You really can't go wrong with either one but I like Ventrilo better.
I own both the 4870x2 and the GTX280 and the nvidia card is much much quieter.
Here were my temps with stock clocks:
Idle or web surfing
4870x2 --> 35% fanspeed --> 45-47 degrees F
GTX280 --> 50% fanspeed --> 49-51 degress F
The 4870x2 at 35% is barely audible, a hair louder than the GTX280...
We are primarily an ODM but we do put out the occasional self-branded board. I've worked at Foxconn for nearly 3 years as a board designer and I assure you we do quality work.
About time they got rid of this nonsense. I recently started playing again after a 2-year hiatus and my lowbie characters were constantly getting killed by this crap.
I'm not so sure about that. Play old NES games like Double Dragon, Ninja Gaiden, or Mega Man and you would see considerable slow down during busy parts of the game.
WOW 3.0 is what WOW will be with the new expansion, Wrath of the Lich King.
When Burning Crusade came out, the game was bumped up to 2.0. Now with another expansion, the game is bumping up to 3.0.
Just installed 8.10 over my 8.9 drivers last night for my 4870x2. Here are my thoughts:
The installation seems to freak out on Vista Ultimate 64. During the installation, an error message will pop up saying I'm missing an INF file. I close the pop up and finish the process, reboot, and...
I HATE the new cover system. Sure it looks cool and is very useful but one of the things I loved about the previous BIA games was the ode to realism when it came to firing your weapon. In previous games, you had to use the iron sights on your gun to fire otherwise you would be grossly...
I'm running games at 1920x1200 with full AA and all options maxed. I'm not sure if a regular 4870 can hang since the X2 also has more memory for texture heavy games. Crossfire/SLI is also not worth it IMO since you're paying double the price for maybe a 30-40% increase in performance AT BEST.
Just wanted to see if this would work for Vista 64:
Primary slot --> Radeon 4870X2 --> single 27 inch LCD
Secondary slot --> Radeon 4850 --> 2 19 inch LCDs
Obviously, the 27 incher will be my primary. I intend to have winamp, firefox, teamspeak, and ventrilo on the other screens so I don't...
Yeah I have this problem too. Hopefully, ATI is aware of this and will fix this with the next set of Catalyst drivers. In the meantime, I have to launch a game and exit out in order to get it to 0%. :(
Come check out "eGO" servers. I am an admin on their servers and we have a very extensive process for banning suspected hackers. Innocent until proven guilty for the most part. :)
You'll usually find me on the 24/7 Flash server. I have the same screen name as I do here but with the...
I too am a former owner of a POS ibuypower computer.
About 4 years ago I had saved enough money to get a decent midrange Alienware machine. At the time, I knew a bit about computers and what I wanted but I was basically a novice who read a lot of computer magazines.
I saw ibuypower's ads...
