Okay so I have my new rig up and running. Runs everything perfectly. The ONLY complaint I have about this computer is when I'm playing BC2 and I try to use FRAPS, I drop from ~75 fps to ~40 fps. Sometimes get spikes to downwards of 20 fps when recording. Maybe OCing the CPU a bit would make the...

I might when I go to crossfire. I read the reviews for it and over half of them had good reviews...most of the bad ones were because some people don't know the power requirements for some things (a few had 2 5770's and an i7 and tried massively overclocking them and destroyed their PC). If I...

ahhhh good ol' RipGuard. It's a copy protection that scrambles all the .m2ts files so rippers can't read them correctly, and makes it appear that there are a TON of files when there are only a few. I had this happen with quite a few dvds, even when DVDFab was completely up to date. If DVDFab...

so they're sending you an IDE cable with the N model just to confuse you then haha.

Alright, this thing is a beast. I click on a program to open, and it opens like it's already been running. I get 70-100 frames per second in BC2 on max settings at 1440 x 900. Yeah, I'm happy :D Can't get pics up yet, internet is being slow as ever. I'll get them up soon hopefully, as well as...

haha sure go ahead :p oh and I put it all together; at a friend's house right now so I can't get pics up yet. maybe tomorrow. The 6870 is HUGE O_O. anyway, got it all together, turned it on and went to install windows 7...but I can't find my disc...I threw it out by accident...lol. Thankfully...

Ok I just looked on newegg's tracking and the last 2 packages are sitting on my porch. I'm at college atm, and I have a 2-hour break between Economics (which I'm in now) and my Tennis class. I'm seriously about to skip tennis, partly because I want to get that PC put together NOW, aaaaand partly...

So far, the game is AMAZING. The graphic detail is phenomenal, and the gameplay is really fun. You also don't die instantly after getting shot once on Veteran. haha. Haven't played online yet, but the clan leaders of TKC's (the PC clan I'm with. Hence, my avatar :p) only complaint was the lag...

wow...people are stupid...

yup I got it, and I gotta say it's pretty fun :D

Yes, that's right. Day of Defeat: Source is 75% off. That means it's only $2.50 only until this Thursday at 4pm PT. http://store.steampowered.com/app/300

First two packages are here! :D Dang those pics are HUGE. O_o Weird thing is, the HDD was encased in an unlabled cardboard box, and the DVD drive was just wrapped in bubblewrap. no case whatsoever. lol. The next package should be here tomorrow, with my CPU, RAM and mobo. The GPU and tower...

Yeah I'm gonna do 2x 6870 :D

Thanks for the quick reply, and yeah I looked up some articles about it and the only serious performance hit that could happen is if I tried triple crossfire with an x4 slot. Won't happen since this mobo only has two slots :p

I just ordered my new rig, and the motherboard for it was an MSI 870S-G54. It comes with 2 PCIe 2.0 x16 slots, with one working at x16 and one at x4 (according to the description, but my friend seems to think they both look like x16). My question is, if I crossfire, how will running the second...

I have Black Ops preodered but I can't pick it up till tomorrow because the GameStop I ordered it at is 20 minutes in one direction from my house, and I'm currently 45 minutes in the opposite direction at college. haha. I'll get it tomorrow when I go to my friend's house. I'm also looking at Hot...

he's a board spammer for ads and stuff. He's got ad links embedded in his emoticons. Useless, and we get them on the TKC forums every now and then. Anyway, I have a Gateway (yes, I cringe at the name too) NV5929u. This thing is seriously bang for your buck. It's got an Intel Core i5 930M with...

nope. works fine for me.

LOL I just realized...go to newegg.com and look up this board. It comes with an IDE cable...but doesn't even have any IDE slots. FAIL
