The current demo doesn't support multicore, so it is likely that they will still play well (was said before that Crysis is CPU-intensive).

Different companies work differently. TF2 may not be much compared to maybe Crysis in terms of technical aspects, but the graphics are still very much appreciated. Firstly, you already said was, so no need for 'but not anymore'. Anyway, I take it that you never felt like you were Gordon...

Is the price confirmed or is it just a rough guess?

Just wait for a 8800GT instead; performance better than the current 640MB GTS yet cheaper, or you could wait for the (rumoured) 65nm version of the 8800GTS.

Your card is a DX7 level card; meaning the hardware doesn't actually support DX8. You need an upgrade for your card then, as DX8 is the minimum for OB.

No, that's too wasteful. Sell the board to an unsuspecting dumbass.

The two intake fans take lots of dust though for the Antec 900.

Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel. Extremely simple program, freeware.

Weapon and avatar customisation sounds suspiciously like CoD4.

It involves Lamarr. So go and watch it 'cause you know it'll be awesome

Argh I come in this thread expecting it spoiler-free and bam. Noooooooooooo. :(

Simple google search (French anchor) came up with it immediately. Her name is Melissa Theuriau.

AVG has been very reliable for me, shame about having to uninstall it though.

Source engine games currently have problems with some anti-virus software; AVG 7.5 and NOD32 cause crashes and need to be uninstalled FULLY. Other anti-virus software have workarounds apparently. Link

Trying to avoid the upgrade later on, don't really like Vista myself. How much would the P5K cost, by the way?

Man, thanks. Getting this then CPU - INTEL Core2 Quad Q6600 GPU - ASUS EN8800GTS (GeForce 880GTS) 320MB GDDR3 Motherboard - ASUS P5K Memory - CORSAIR 1GB (PC2-6400) 800MHz DDR2-800 x 2 PSU - ANTEC TruePower Trio 650W ATX Power Supply Case - ANTEC 900 HDD - Hitachi (HGST) T7K500 500GB (16MB)...

Ok. I doubt retailers stock the Tuniq Tower 120 over here, so would simpler heatsinks be able to cool the CPU sufficiently for overclocking (and hopefully reduce the noise)? Also, can the cooling systems in the case support GPU overclocking? Thanks for your help.

I'm only going to overclock slightly; in that case would an Asus P5N and current cooling systems be acceptable?

Ok. Any recommendation for a better one? I'm going to try to overclock the system as well; would I need a better cooling system for it?
