Re: TheSloth - my first self build. Sony as well, PMSL, how times change.

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. yep, first drive in 1, 2nd in 2, etc etc

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. put it in first, then work around.

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. its important not to use too much and obviously too little, I usually put a dab in the centre of the chip and let the heatsink spread it out.

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. yes indeed. Also, its worth checking the manual to make sure that the jumpers (if any) on the motherboard are set correctly (its much easier to do this out of the case)

I've got Megs #16 i think it is, P21s and Swissvax Onyx.

I wish I'd have gone for 50" over 42", but then I did pay £1500 at the time and 50" would have been £2000.

I'd go with the Samsung, but then I guess I'm biased as I already have a Samsung. I'm actually thinking of getting one of those for the bedroom.

two screens are brilliant, I have two in work as well and it is so restrictive trying to do things when working on one screen again.

the TV is 42" and everything pictured is paid for, my cc is £0.

Living Room : Office :

ah, the Scottish ;)

a simple internet browser is not asking much, especially from Microsoft. Its just typical MS horse sh*t why they won't do it.

lol, what annoys me the most, is that they do MSN messenger but still no f**king Internet access, I mean come on, my bloody PSP can do that!

i bought it for my brother (HUGE SS fan) it was ace! Really good.

cool

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. its not unusual for the HDD light connector to be the wrong way around on motherboards.

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. pmsl, good advice.

i think I'm correct in saying you just need another graphics card, it doesn't matter if it is SLI'd or not.

the key on that level is building extra Harvesters, atleast one more if not 2 or 3 more. That way you have more cash to build tanks and troops. The best thing to do with regards to the MCV is just leave it until you've got plenty of units (you can leave MCV as long as you like), train lots of...

ditto.

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. i don't know what others are like, but I don't bother with wrist straps, I just make sure I touch the inside of the case etc before picking up components and installing them, for my recent build I cleared my computer desk and gave myself a large area to work...

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. the only other one I can think of at the moment is when screwing the board to the risers on the case, make sure you don't position unused risers under the board as these will short the board and cause problems, i.e count the number of risers you put in and...

Re: TheSloth - my first self build. good luck mate. Just take your time, don't be tempted to rush ahead and switch it on, make sure all of the right power connections are made for the motherboard, graphics card and all of the various fans. Ensure the fan for the CPU is seated correctly as well.

the noise in my 172 was coming from the top of the side windows due to poor fitting/build quality.

£150 for a 360 core is good. I bet Play.com will be sold out at 00:05 though.

my 172 was pretty bad but I just lived with it after having the windows re-fitted 3 times by Renault, no improvement made. Thankfully the Megane is fine.

i think they are trying too hard to make the storyline on this one and there doesn't seem to be very much in the line of actual gameplay. I seem to be lacking full exposure of being able to make big bases and progress as the levels seem to be over before you know it. I've also never been a fan...

the ion cannon is a bit special in this one. I've been running it on maxxxed out settings and have been expecting it to maybe start lagging with lots of units fighting onscreen, but it just takes it all in its stride (pretty nice).

oh dear. No doubt another one paying too much attention to her pink fluffy dice and not the road.
