You might want to consider a gig of ram (2*512mb) I'm sure you can find a way to use it all ~_^
And I'm going to go for a 19" monitor, twill be a very nice change from my current one.
I've heard that if you want to oc you should go for the p4 2.4c and oc the snot out of it, otherwise...
yeah, ME is a huge pile of junk. I'm currently on 98se and it's so ****ing buggy I want to scream. It crashes loads if I try to watch a film and has some weird problems running soulseek (although I know that's a problem with slsk not win98)
Why didn't dos die in 1995? Pretty typical of ms using...
I'm getting a new pc soon. I'll probably go for 2k pro, but I'll try running it under wine and see if it's any good. Btw what's the best linux distro for someone who knows quite a bit about computers but has never used *nix and wants it to be fast and simple (most linux guis look really bloated...
asaik it's a 9800 clocked very, very high with a better fan. Kinda like an uber "xtreme" version of the 9800pro...
I'll probably go for a 9800 clock it a bit higher than stock. I doubt I'll need the extra speed the xt has.
I've had a work computer for 3 years with an inbuilt 8meg graphics card so I've been pretty much screwed for playing games and learning 3d modelling, but I'm getting a new pc around the time hl2 comes out because it seems like a good time to get it. I don't have much money and it's taken years...
I get bored of things pretty easily unless there's always something new to learn about them, so finding out about the design and tech side of things was a natural step to keep alive my interest in blowing stuff up...
I'm a lot more interested in the tech side of source and d3e than the games so I found this really interesting. I've got loads of ideas for using the new features and I'm glad the modding tools look really good and easy to use.
Same here. Kinda. I figured a forum for a popular computer game would just be filled with moronic homophobic 13 year olds. Oh and I don't consider bi "half gay". They're two completely different things.
60-70%? My dad's gay and I'm bi and I know a lot of gay guys and non of them have any stis as far as I'm aware....
As long as you play safe there's not much more risk than boy girl...
Oh and that's the most blatent and pathetic publicity stunt I've ever seen (please nobody mention tatu...)...
I wonder how much Valve spent on developing steam that could have gone towards halflife2....
It really does seem like a waste to me. Well, maybe not a waste but I'd compare it to the winamp3 feasco only instead of the product not being ready for the masses, the masses aren't ready for the product.
Cowboy that's probably one of my favourite sequences as well, but I really do love fighting the human grunts and assasins. AI working well in a team against you made for some very interesting encounters. Hl2 is going to pwn for that reason. Intelligent enemies are the way forward for first...
