yeah, the first time ron said "brb rebooting" on vent, he was back in like 5 seconds flat... holy shit SSD is amazing!ward wrote:Yeah I have a OCZ Vertex 3 SSD. Shit loads like instantly. With that mobo you can get a low capacity SSD and set up SSD caching so it speeds up your most used files without having to install all your games etc on it.

Re: do any of you jerks play games anymore?
Even my single 5850 volt modded and OC'd can play most games at 1920x1080 pretty nicely with high settings (not highest) and 2x AA/AF, which higher isn't exactly needed at such a high res. This is with an old e6600 running at 3.7GHz compared to its 2.4GHz default. An i7 mildly overclocked and paired with 2 mid-range GPUs, such as the 560 Ti's (about $400 for both) will play any game smoothly for quite some time.

Like I said, not saying the low-mid range cards are bad, but you are going to have to sacrifice resolution and/or quality. Personally I don't really care about AA, but it's nice to have if you already have over 70 fps and want it to look a little nicer. I am not a huge fan of ATI, as I have had a few of their cards burn out on me (without oc'ing either). If you're going to go for the midrange Nvidia, go with EVGA. They have a StepUp program that lets you upgrade them to a better card within 90 days of the time you register them (if you decide they are too slow) Also, lifetime warranty.

Re: do any of you jerks play games anymore?
Hi guys!
In regards to the past posts about WoW, I am thinking of reactivating my account and playing with some of my fellow old gaming friends.
I currently have a level 80 druid (hasn't been logged in for about a year+) that I will either reactivate and play or trade with someone who wants to play a druid and let me play their terrible toon.
What servers are ya'll on? Faction? Is Catacysm or whatever any good?
Thanks!

nah, me/errick/moriar are on mal'ganis horde.
got my new comp together and gotta say im pretty pleased. with all settings on high i was getting 2-300 fps in dod source (lol i know but it was the fastest game i could download to see how it played) running on one gpu. once i get the PCIe power adapters (im using the 700w psu from my old setup and it only has ONE PCIe plug) for the 2nd GPU and get those babies SLId up, we should be in good shape.

We had a bunch of DoD guys actually playing on Mal'Ganis, then people got bored. Standard WoW.
