You can either play with the divider but ballistic ram should have some very low latencies if you ease them off a bit then you can overclock a fair bit.
On some cars can look fine but has to generally be a heavily modified car and not the standard crappy blue they all seem to put on no matter what colour the car is.
Needs to match the car and gnerally not be put on cars like clios corsa novas and thelike on bigger performance cars when they...
Just cant see the point in letting people waste money that could be better spent on...the car! :D
Especially when it wont make much noticeable difference.
hate not being able to edit
but i personally think the car looks absolutely stunning will be looking at one of these myself in couple years depending on how good they really are. But with them getting the 5 star ncap rating couldnt that lower insurance prices due to it being safer?
Exactly, cant see the ram being much of a problem. Although if your gonna upgrade i do seriously recommend the DFI lanparty boards not only cause they look cool but just because there the best boards i've ever used used to buy gigabyte ones all the time and now this just has so many more...
Ok not really that concered since im only gonna own my clio for another 3 weeks but i dont want someone else getting it when this could be a problem.
Basically when its first started and is cold if it comes down from 2000rpm the first few times its giving this odd grunty kinda noise sounds...
7800GTX £300- £400 cheaper if you want just a GT.
But your chip shouldnt be a problem. You could just overclock your cpu will still be perfectly fine and cheaper. And would likely easily reach 4000+ speeds with the stock heatsink and fan
wont really get that much better performance unless your gonna spend some serious cash FX57 £600 decent mobo £150 and graphics card £300-£400 depending on make and preoverclocked or not.
The 3500+ and 6800ultra are more than up to the job of running the latest games as long as you dont wanna...
But i can tell you something thats just as fun...ok its just as fun if your in the i wanna go kill myself mood. A chevy tacuma 60mph B roads and me not thinking about it after coming out of the clio it doesnt handle like a clio. 60mph into a sharpish bend. Lets just say the language that came...
You will notice some increase but wont be as mind blowing as from a 1 litre micra to a vtr. Hell jumping in a 1.2 16v clio from a 1 litre micra was just pure pleasure after i got stuck driving one for a week. Hated the damn thing had no power what so ever and i thought the clio was powerless.
depends what your going from. im coming from a 9800xt with a 2500+ at 3200+ and looking to be going to a 7800gtx and a 4400+ i expect to see a massive difference.
Paintwork has a longer warranty think its 8 years just thoguht id mention. But this isnt the first car ive heard about today with bubbling paint apparently its been put down to "sunlight and heat" personally i think thats bull!
funny on the 1.2 its the other way round :)
top half of the tank will last me most of the week the bottom half can drop down to last line within a day.
Yeah from a 9800 to a 6800 would improve things due to the better architecture better at handling AA and AF the 6800 and optimized for higher resolutions.
However the 7800 on the other hand does need a beast of a cpu to stop it from being bottlenecked. Either a P4 around the 4.6ghz mark or...
1.2 is book speed of like 13 or so seconds to 60, the 182 is book speed of 7 but typically can be a fair bit under that. So just on those figures which are typically pretty usless is there much of a difference. well yes lol.
Also remember the 182 handles better.
And at your age in a year...
HL2 does make use of some rather large textures in a pretty naff format as well hence the ridiculous loading times at points. Although they were improved. Doom3 uses big textures and a lot of brush work in its maps though hence why it looks imho a hell of a lot better than anything out right...
Memory would be fine with an A64 board corsair stuff is still pretty much best you can get i bought my stuff over a year ago and they currently dont have anything better out. It will overclock to stupidly high speeds and run at low latencies of 222 at normal speeds. So saves you some cash lol...
Im not at the moment, I will be movign to watercooling when i build my next rig which will be in a couple months. 4400+ 2 gig corsair XMS xl (already got 1gb) and a 7800GTX. Want the water cooling for that 4400+ wanna see how much i can push it.
But if your going watercooling best to buy it...
in all fairness your eyes dont really see much difference after around 40fps they are capable of seeing much more but you usually cant tell the difference otherwise we would all be bitching at the rather low fps our tv's use and you wouldnt enjoy a lot of games on consoles which happened to run...
Well theres a sunroof so theres a good chance it is a 1.2.
But ah well each to there own. I suppose if all you want is people to look at you its fine but personally id rather have something where the engine can do the talking hence my 1.2 has remained completely and utterly standard had i a...
