[Rasclart]

BUY A NEW RIG MUNSON! Stop *****ing around like a b**ch

 

[seb]

indeed. I continually want to upgrade thesloth but know i shouldn't!!!

 

[BenWall]

I like macs, but PCs all the way for me though.

And Crysis isn't that good. Had ago on the demo the other day and wasnt impressed.

Expand please mate. In what way? Story? Sound? Visuals? What imprresses you normally about PC FPS games that would make you not like Crysis?

Just didnt like the game play at all. I love couter strike source as its so fun to play, just didnt find crysis that good, single player might be better but who knows. Its not worth spending all the money on new GFX cards for that game.

LOL I have played that BETA is was crap as it was unfinished and buggy to name a few things. But it was exactly that a BETA not meant to reflect gameplay etc it was a public release BETA. How you can dismiss a game based on that is beyond me

Ohh dear I hope you mean a 8800GTS, you do realise you could have built the same system for half the price

I just checked the dell site they dont do DDR3, you have the middle XPS with a 8600GTS with 3GB thats about 1200 quid!!!!!!

its alright does what i need it to but i'm not a gamer, aslong as it can run Rhino boolian modeling and photoshop CS i'm happy.
but i want t upgrade some bits, but to be honest i'd be cheaper buying something from dell and specing it up with my parts from this, coz it about 4-5 years old now and should be put out to pasture.

 

[Munson]

I played a Half-Life 2 BETA some years ago and it sucked. So Half-Life 2 must also suck :dead:

Just out of interest any programs use quad core? didn't even think games are using dual core yet!?

correct me if im wrong.....

 

[FiDoDiDo]

I don't think many programs do yet, one that does is Adobe CS3. Only thing I've noticed that does is the operating system really.

I need a new case. The one I have came out of a skip (i s**t you not!!!). Really liked Gareth's newbuild one, but I dont need something as big. Everything I've looked at looks cheap and nasty. Even stuff £150+

Also, can I get Ubuntu to work with 3 monitors - can I f**k! Windows 7 worked out of the box.

 

[JonnyK]
