Event tho it's a bit slower.... yours will be able to trounce it!

Got the lot from PCCaseGear, which was recommended to me by a few mates.

Hate you, hate you, hate you, hate you...
Congratulations man, that is a sweet-ass rig IMO.

I hate me too if it's any consolation. I've been saving most of my income since January so I'm hoping that once built it will eat other computers for power.

Got around to ordering my new computer yesterday

Intel Core i7 990x
Corsair CMX12GX3M3A2000C9 12GB (3x4GB) DDR3
Gigabyte G1-Guerrilla ATX Motherboard
2x Palit GeForce GTX 580 Dual Fan 3GB
120GB Solid State Drive
2TB Western Digital Black Caviar Hard Drive
Coolermaster Haf X case and assorted cooling equipment.

Battlefield 3 comes out next Thursday but I won't be getting on til the following Friday when I hand in my dissertation.

Excitement.

Egads! How much did that cost?

I keep getting distracted by pay phone calls when flying around

lol, I get distracted by thugs on the ground. I love the combat system so much, I just can't resist the urge to get into a fight, no matter how many dudes are in the area... Current max combo of 42 with a 5x variation bonus. Hoping to get up to fifty, but haven't found a big enough group of baddies so far...

Catwoman is fun too, although I have only got to her second play section (due the fight addiction).

Another Demo of Sonic Generations is available, this time it's Green Hill Zone for Classic AND Modern Sonic

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Gonna do me some downloading tonights!!!!!!!!!!!@!

Sega have tightened up the controls for classic Sonic since the last demo, very impressed.

Well I finished X-Men Destiny in under a week which means it's really easy. The story is way too short. It was a great concept but very poorly executed.

I am selling a Logitech Z506 5.1 Speaker system - Brand new, it has only been taken out of the box to test and that's it.



I am asking $70 for the set but will consider offers.

The only reason that I am selling is that my particular TV set is unable to output all 5.1 channels through RCA. It is otherwise perfect for Xbox360, PS3 and PC.

New World of Warcraft expansion announced at Blizzcon. Not too sure about Pandas but...

$5 shy of my $4000 budget.

When BF3 was officially announced in February I decided that there wasn't really a good reason I shouldn't put aside $100 odd a week to have a beast computer for it's release
