Yeah, you sometimes get it a day before. Plus, they're usually cheaper online than in hmv, virgin, game etc. And they just come through the door, which is kinda handy, and less effort !! :)

I really enjoyed stalker. I finished it, but i got one of the fake endings. So since i got a new graphics card, which allows me to push those last few settings right up, i decided to play through the game again, and this time make sure i get one of the proper endings. Slightly sidetracked at the...

My copy has just been posted ! :) Love the demo, seems like a really great game. Not an RTS man myself, but this i enjoyed enough to buy. Another good review: http://www.bit-tech.net/gaming/2007/09/19/world_in_conflict/1

That would be great. My brother had one of those on his 6800GT and it did a good job. I would however recommend a newer version of that cooler for one particular reason: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118001 My personal experience with the cooler you have posted (also...

That 500mhz figure is double to get the 1000mhz as it's ddr - double data rate. Most monitoring programs show that half figure, rivatuner (which i use) does exactly the same. Nothing to worry about. You could just replace the stock cooler with a third party item (zalman get my vote) and then...

Perfectly good enough for a reasonable overclock with a small voltage increase on the core. The main reason to replace them imo is because they can make a bit of a racket. Sure 3rd party coolers do cool significantly better in some cases, but the intel stock cooler should keep one of those cool...

This Core2Duo is within your budget: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116036 It is named Pentium, but it is a Core2Duo chip with reduced cache - 1mb It isn't blindingly quick at stock, but is very fast when overclocked, out of reach of the athlon X2's. A reasonable...

My PC emits a single short beep when it powers up, nothing to worry about assuming the PC starts up as intended.

Holy mother that is possibly the worst place for them to put the ide socket. That would indeed be where you need to plug in your cd/dvd drive if you have an ide drive. Solution: get a longer cable, or get a sata dvd drive. The stock intel heatsink plugs into the mobo via the 4 pin interface...

I'm fairly sure that by using a usb headset that you will be bypassing your sound card, and therefore missing out on the benefits of the x-fi. However, i may be wrong, so i shall wait and see if someone else can come along and clarify this. And to reiterate my suggestion in another thread...

It works just fine, you just need to head over to the microsoft site to dl the drivers for it. edit: will prolly work just fine with plug and play.

Hehe, cool :)

Just thought i'd drop a link to this elrasho: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SP-030-SN The Sennheisers that we'd mentioned plus GRAW2 basically free. May not be your cup of tea but thought i'd mention it all the same. :)

I lol'd :E

3) When modern cpu's could probably render 3D games faster than your antiquated graphics card.

Go for the Sennheiser. Far superior pieces of kit.

Yah, not really fitting into the 30 pound mark. :P

:( Damnit.

Yeah, but he does make really nice crisps. /groan :E
