I used to play CS:S competitively. Before I used to just game on pubs and play what most people would call noob games. I later joined the CAL community and forums. I spent hours reading up on strategy and how people improved their aim. I watched demos after demos analyzing strategies and so on...
Games running fine for me.
Upon further inspection of your rig, if you're trolling this isn't funny.
If cs:s doesn't run on your system, this won't either. The game was made off the source SDK. I wouldn't call it graphics intensive (looks alright though) in this day and age but for your...
Yep, just had to reinstall windows and overclocked my PC back to regular. When I came back from work and saw the computer off I thought the oc was messed up, psu died or something along the lines of that.
Not one of my best days.
Pretty much this.
One of HuskyStarcraft's arguments: We know battle.net goes down...all servers do, no surprise. So what happens if you're at a LAN, all playing your legit accounts, and battle.net goes down. Then what are all the 100+ people going to do?
Lots of people from Teamliquid...
I've got mine at 3.5ghz with an ancient board :D. I top out at ~72C in BOINC after about 5 hours. I can definitely go higher (I've had it at 3.6) but it gets too hot. Can't wait til winter.
Hey guys, I'm coming in late this month. I did 10 results in the beginning of the month and then left. I just got my q9550 and boy is it beasting muon1. Let's go get em :)

Anyone know about the validity of these dates? If so, it doesn't seem like we're going to be getting anything really good til Q3 2011 (6-8 cores).
Lol other than sales, over here in Canada, prices have been going up. Pretty simple, no competition initially and demand was high, low supply, price goes up.
Still very low competition but Nvidias prices have been dropping where it's been able to compete. If that continues and supply increases...
Good side: Pings finally show for me now. I'm not even running as an administrator.
Bad side: I'm done with this game til they fix this registry crap. Shots hit me while I'm running behind buildings. Everyone is all of a sudden pro, getting the craziest shots I never thought possible. Long...
This happened twice today.
I was sniping and I saw a guy running to me. I flicked it and shot at him and I saw the bullet hit the ground (he was running up a hill to me) right next to him, yet, it killed him. I've also been getting hs where their chest has been. Sniping is beast for me now...
This game makes me irate sometimes. How is it that I can get banned from a server for swearing. And before anyone says I was avoiding the filter by writing f|-|c|< or whatever, I wasn't. Just straight going at it with the text coming out as @$$#%#$%@. Yet, I get banned for swearing.
And the...
Hey [H]. I currently have my system and all my games installed on a WD 500GB Green 32MB cache HD. I just recently bought a 1TB WD Blue 32MB Cache HD and I'm using that to store all my media. I realize this is kinda backasswards and I was wondering if I would see a large performance gain if I...
JESUS motherfucking christ. I just woke up, looked up steam sales and said oh shit when I saw civilization on sale.
<3 Steam <3
To anyone on the fence, Civ is one of the best games ever. Very fun and it's like crack. Get ready to play your life away.
DA:O took me ~40 hours to beat. It is fucking immersive as hell. It's kinda like LOTR, lots of strategy in placement and you can definitely do other runs through the story like in WoW. You can play once as a poor elf rogue and then again as a noble human warrior. I personally went through the...
Yeah but try comparing the aim of the best CSS players to the best Halo players.
You can't tell me anyone on a console shoots anything like this:

The precision of a mouse > controllers by far. I...
Just bought ME1.
Total damage inflicted on wallet this week: $56 for 5 games. 1 gaybox360 game = $60 (CDN)
Steam-5, xbox-0
Plus The orange box I bought last week = another $20
Turns out you need DA:Origins on Steam for DA:Awakening to work. Thus, unless they both come for ~$20, which is very...
I've maybe noticed shots not registering a few times. It's usually a spray n pray that will mess up, sniper shots, nades and bursts always work. Most of the time when people say OMGWTFREG, they're actually missing.
Anyways, I think the game is fucking amazing. I can feel my hurt beating like...
My e6420 @ 3.2 ghz is currently bottlenecking my system.
With everything on high and MSAA from anywhere between 1-4 and res between 1680x1050 to 1400x900, I'm still seeing ~38fps avg.
Sounds like a good kid.
Definitely get Braid and World of Goo. Braid will definitely get tough and you'll definitely have to walk her through some parts. World of Goo would be excellent as well, working out structures and such.
She'd definitely like portal then for it's puzzles. I guess it's...
Well this thread is kind of sad.
The only entertaining games and the only games where developers are putting lots of focus on to graphics are those that are primarily violent. Violence and pretty things ftw...I guess.
I would go with Flight Simulator X and then mod the hell out of it using...
I love you.
I already have ME2 and DA:O.
I LOVED DA:O. Amazing story line, lots of strategy to use. Excellent immersion and very replayable. You can go through as a high class human warrior or low class elf mage and many other in betweens. The first run in the game took about 40 hours for me...
Actually to top it off I live in Canada where the average q9550 is ~$300 after taxes. I once saw a q9550 on ebay for $200 plus shipping but didn't have the money at the time, while 1055's are ~$200 retail which agrees with your point.
The benefits of upgrading aren't as pronounced for my...
I'm staying put til Sandy Bridge comes around. Gonna try and upgrade to a q9550 and add 2gb more of ram. The x6's look damn good but the cost/benefit level isn't where it should be to warrant an upgrade, for me.
