Nice, just upgraded my processor to a E6600 aswell - although i'm upgrading slowly bit at a time - next is probs my graphics card as my 9700pro is getting very old now!
Currently my E6600 is only running at 29c so lots of room for overclocking!
I'm sure ISP's can see people downloading massive amounts of data like Films (few gig at a time) very rare for any other reason for downloading this much data except for illegal copied stuff.
Maybe things are being putt into place to montior the internet because it is becoming less and less a...
When playing games I wanna relax, if I wanted to move around like that I'd actually go bowling or play tennis!
It doesn't have to be a dark room or alone (4 mates playing evo?, jesus imagine u all had to kick the ball the virtual ball!).
forget the stigma! I've been watching films the same...
Xbox 360 all the way!
Wii = good family/group fun, but come on waving your hand around all night is gonna get boring? I just wanna kick back on the sofa with some beers and blow some f*****s head off not jump around the living room doing bowling motions.
As for being able to download the old...
I use the router's firewall and windows built in firewall - thats more than enough - other software is just a resource hog and not needed!
As for anti-virus I use symantec business edition - which is simple and runs hidden. Far better than the bloated norton crap.
Sounds too hot if you ask me - my old AMD 3200+ ran about 40c and would crash at 56c - AMD are thought to hit 80c before they die :) so I suggest getting a better heat sink and fan.
I've seen Norton cause similar issues - if its expired its no good as a anti-virus anyway, maybe get AVG for free?
Unistall Norton and bin it :) crappest software ever.
got netgear and belkin ones - never a problem.
Had problems with Linksys a couple of times.
Make sure you dont get one designed for cable and one with built in ADSL modem mixed up :)
Check your Temp of your system/CPU as well and make sure all your fans are working.
You done any install/changes to your PC before the PC started rebooting?
New memory? new programmes?
PS3 = Brand loyalty and hype thats the only thing that is gonna sell this machine.
Had a xbox360 since launch and over the year the whole system has just got better and better with the updates and the games are improving all the time.
Liked what was said earlier combined with a PC its a great...
why would you need to?
Ive done it with three routers connecting two different networks to one broadband line.
Very easy to do - need 1 ADSL router then x 2 normal routers with configurable WAN ports on them.
Check out the Adobe lightroom beta (FREE for now) if its for digital photo work! works great with RAW and jpg - if you find it suits your needs then when it's released it will be far cheaper than CS2.
It's aimed towards professional digital photographers.
