    Client Gives Me His New PC

    I ended up driving to Fry's with the family today, which was about 2hrs north of where I live. After getting home from work early this morning, I did some more research on cheap, budget AM2+ motherboards & came across a few possible winners. With a list in hand of the exact models I was...

    Client Gives Me His New PC

    I was actually thinking about trying out the hardware as my main PC & benchmarking it against my currently stocked E6400. When I said "only 550w" I was thinking more along the lines of running my 4850, dual HDD's, x2 burners, water cooler & possible x3 case fans. I'm currently using an older...

    Client Gives Me His New PC

    I am looking at this motherboard. It provides the Bios features I want. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128394 I am also looking @ this PSU. Only 550w, but it's highly rated. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341022 I saw this CPU Water Cooler @...

    Client Gives Me His New PC

    Greetings all, Being as I never seem to get lucky or "catch a break" when it comes to getting free goodies, the fact that I got some free hardware today, came as a very nice surprise. A few months ago, a coworker of mine, asked me to make him a budget PC, which I did. ( I believe I posted about...

    Metro 2033 is out, and it has far exceeded my expectations.

    Depends. Is it the SX or DX version? If it's the DX2 version @ 50mhz, then sure. :laugh: I was at a clients house last night working on her PC, when she asked me if I wanted her old computer. I told her sure. So she brought up her 286 from the basement. I laughed out loud... -MRG

    Metro 2033 is out, and it has far exceeded my expectations.

    I wish I had the ability the play a game, any game in DX10, but I"m still on WinXP & so it's DX9.0c for me. I was looking at prices for the different versions of Win7 & was thinking of getting Win7 Professional. Then I saw that MS was releasing Win8 in 2012. Shit! Anyways, Earlier last...

    Metro 2033 is out, and it has far exceeded my expectations.

    For the first time Krynn72, you & I seem to actually agree on a game. I just reached the part where & as such am only about 30 minutes into the game. So far, the game boasts: 1) Great atmosphere. 2) Nice visuals & audio. ( Great looking mutants ) 3) Nice weapons, barter system. 4) Great...

    Official Bad Company 2 thread - no beta talk here!

    I just picked up BF:BC2. I tend to play as either an Engineer or Medic whenever possible in any given game. However, before I even tried to play online, I had read about how unbalanced the classes were. Seems like the Devs went overboard the opposite direction this time around. Whereas in...

    A "Freelancer 2" would be nice. -MRG

    Any mods to make Oblivion more user friendly?

    To expand a little on what Crom said. 1) "TES Nexus", IMO, offers the best listing of mods for all Elder Scrolls based games. Period. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/categories.php 2) The "BTMod" for the User Interface is indeed an excellent mod for Oblivion. However, I would have to say...

    In The Mood - 40's Era Musical

    My wife bought my daughter & I tickets to go see "In The Mood", a 40's era musical revue @ the Gallo Arts Center. My daughter is 12, but she loves big band music. The musical had a 15 piece instrument band, made up of mostly senior citizens. The drummer was about 60 & was simply amazing. Age did...

    Shamu the killer whale does what killer whales do best MURDERDEATHKILL

    The killer whale that killed the trainer at Seaworld was named Tilikum, not Shamu. It's the 3rd time this killer whale was involved with killing a human. The first was in 1991, the second time was in 1999 & now 2010. The killer whale had a known violent history. Very sad. Now. Anyone want an...

    Martial arts

    I wear a black leather belt on a daily basis. Does that count for anything? Otherwise I have zero training in any fighting style. I have thus far been lucky & not been in any kind of fight since H.S. 15 years ago. My 6'4, 260lbs helps hide an otherwise teddybear disposition. I have dreamed of...

    AvP3

    I noticed that about the aliens as well. Only one would attack me at a time, even though there were several around me within range to attack me. As soon as I took one down, then another would move in for the kill. While it allows you to focus on a single adversary, which some people may prefer...

    AvP3

    Please don't get me wrong MuToiD_MaN, I love the sound of the M41A Pulse Rifle. It's a VERY distinctive sound in itself & of course a well known & attributed audio of the Aliens genre. I'm not in any way saying I wished they changed the weapons sounds from it's original sound to something...
