lol. they are going to build the thing to be handicapped from the start in order to maximize profits.
I am not expecting much at all from the next generation of consoles. The kind of hardware that they put into those things is an insult.
farcry 2 has nice graphics and good aesthetics, but I don't remember it bringing my rig to its knees in the same way as say crysis.
the game is a total turd. Its nothing like farcry. All you do is drive/run through africa and run into the same respawning dudes at checkpoints over and over...
finally let my subs lapse. don't see myself returning anytime soon... it's just not the same game at all.
basically everyone I ever knew that played has quit the game... basically everything we ever did is no longer viable or just no longer the same.
perhaps the final nail in the coffin was...
I got the first one when I bought the orange box on sale... never finished it. A puzzle, oh hey look another puzzle! Do you ever get to even kill anything? :p
Most "gamers" these days are not PC gamers. Not even console gamers. They are either playing farmville(which is worth like $6b because of people buying lawn gnomes) or playing some cell phone game.
what a joke that they try to call it a "large scale warfare game"...
With 32 players.... large. yeah right.
Someone has never played planetside. Unless we are talking about several hundred or more players all fighting over the same objective it is not large scale. Heck I think there used...
If you buy a LG TV make sure that its an ips panel...
My LG LE325400 is pretty much the best 32" TV I have ever seen. But it is the IPS version. The tv's with VA panels are complete junk and not worth buying.
Thanks for the info, but if I set the HT link to 10x, it sets the NB multiplier to 10x regardless of what setting I try to use in the bios. so far this bios has not allowed me to set each one independently and accept each one. It did on the older version.
Previously I had the HT link set at...
thanks for the suggestion. HT link speed seems to be defaulting to 2600mhz. Want it to be lower than that? Tried setting it manually to 2.6 from auto and no joy. Clearing cmos not so fun.
ht link 2.4ghz seems to allow me to change the nb multiplier... However I guess you may be right about it...
I am using a Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H rev 1.1 w/ and just dropped in a shiny new 1090T.
Previously I was using an old Phenom I X4 9850 and could achieve stable 2200mhz nb speed. Now I am using a new bios to support the newer cpu and the options are a little different.
I have tried setting...
Well I got my 1090T. Amazon did a terrible job of packaging it. Box was dented right where the cpu is. The chip seems fine, though.
Problem is that the stock cpu fan seems to basically be the loudest fan I have ever heard. and I used to have a very loud delta cpu fan and a extra loud oversized...
better how? gameplay? story? and this is based on what? playing a single chapter and not the entire game?
also different people like the original game for different reasons.
orks and dorks = totally gay and will destroy your life and eat your soul...
I know people that have dropped out of school/quit their jobs to play orks and dorks. Also a girl that abandoned her child and stopped taking care of him so she could sit and play orks and dorks 24/7. Ended up leaving...
well I guess I will just order the 1090T and hope for the best :) mobo and PSU should be able to accept it.
free amazon prime membership(they are giving another round of free memberships) +27$ gift card I got from putting a bunch of change into a coinstar machine = processor will be on my...
I don't know whether I would consider FSB overclocking the old school way. Both have been around for ages. But besides the price, the unlocked multiplier is definitely the big plus for amd to me. Having an unlocked multiplier or being able to unlock it sure makes overclocking much more of a...
I recently have been doing a little more gaming and some games are slightly slower than I would like.
I currently have Phenom X4 9850 BE @ 2.8ghz(might be able to go higher with a better cooler though)
Gigabyte GA-MA78M-S2H mobo
4GB Kingston hyperx ddr2
PCP&C Silencer psu(can't remember how...
I did stereoscopic gaming back in the 90's. Was fun but not much interest/support. Would not be surprised if it disappeared again.
I would be interested if it was 100% solid/supported/no hassle
That's what we said in 1997.
that is damn nice. Just changed my upgrade plans & timetable significantly. I need to get an AM3 phenom II but no idea which one, at least I know I can afford it.
