since there's going to be a new socket for AMD soon, and the prescotts are crap, i wouldn't buy anything right now unless your system is really old and crappy....i'd wait until fall so you can get on a better upgrade path and save some future $$. right now, i'd suggest a non-64bit...

exactly, man...you don't even know what you did...but the old one caught on fire and lived...oh well...i'd rather have uber fast and more delicate stuff than slow old stuff any day :) luckily i haven't damaged one single component since then...worst problems i've had were with my current...

yeah...one time i was trying to pry one of those old plastic motherboard riser things out of my case and my hand slipped and i cut a huge gash in my finger...it bled profusely for about 10 minutes...still have the scar... then i went back to turn my computer on (i was in the middle of an...

i have hardwood floors.

while i object to the word 'cult' being applied to a large, diverse group of people who enjoy the same music or art, i think hip-hop will continue to have a huge following as the years go on. the culture of it is certainly not going anywhere and is only going to expand. and gangsta rap and...

and you all said "when the hell am i gonna have to use THIS?" when you first learned about flow charts.

Maskirovka is russian for camoflage/deception...basically keeping the enemy guessing as to what your true intentions are. i got it from the tom clancy book "red storm rising"...it's what the russians call their plan for tricking everyone....it was also used in the battletech books...the house...

i totally agree with D33...mIRC is the ugliest piece of crap i've ever seen....you can tweak the colors some, but it somehow doesn't stop the insanity for me. if you can stand how it looks, there's nothing really wrong with it. personally, i use xircon (www.xircon.com) with the syntax...

i've seen adware that will make you unable to use common internet-accessing programs. i went to my gf's friend's house to fix her computer because IE wouldn't start...but if you typed an address in to any other folder window (like control panel), you could access web pages. so i started...

yeah it costs even less than that if your power saving settings are relatively agressive. if you turn your monitor off after 10 mins and your hard disks after 30, it probably costs like $10-15 a year to run your computer 24x7

i realize it gets a bit cluttered sometimes, but i really hate having to look through multiple forums...i never felt like the general gaming forum was that great or necessary...but i'm sure you guys felt it was getting cluttered... i'd much rather keep the number of forums to a minimum...

i generally agree with everyone else

well said...i just don't understand how they could bring this kind of suit, knowing how popular hardocp is, and expect not to receive massive backlash...especially when they didn't release any statements that contradict hardocp's claims...it just makes no sense :P

no opinions?

good, building a missile defense shield was pointless anyway...of course anyone could develop som way to get around it... mutually assured destruction has staved off nuclear war for about 50 years...i'm fine with the status quo. and those articles you linked to have bad sources...they cite...

read something wrong

you don't have to take a breathalizer test, but if you refuse and you seem drunk, that's enough to arrest you anyway. 82kph in a 60kph zone is 51mph in a 37mph...so that's not quite reckless. speeding sucks anyway...it's pointless unless you go really fkn fast. a 140 mi trip at 70mph...

this won't hurt their recruiting much, imo

I linked to this gamespot article from bluesnews: http://www.gamespot.com/all/news/news_6089591.html I then read the [H]ardOCP article, and found it to be a merely invesitgative report. I'd like to see something from Infinium besides "it's false". I have lots of respect for [H]ardOCP, and...

too bad itunes is gay and i don't drink pepsi
