    omniful got a reaction from Mattias Edeslatt in Are we pirates?   
    Give me the ad blocker that dupes the company serving the ad into believing I saw it, without me actually seeing it. Make the content creator complicit in (or at least benefited by) the piracy. I'd pick that up today.

    Just fyi. Rebates from good manufactures are basically foolproof. But I can understand the sentiment.
     
    Secondly, it is highly recommended you shell out the extra money for a 4GB 380. It does much better in many games that have issues with the 2GB 380.
     
    I would also say long term grabbing an SSD would be a good idea, but at the price point atm it doesn't make sense.

    Spend the 4 extra dollars. Worth it.
     
    4GB 380 is a huge improvement over the 2GB model.

    Newer FPS games may not support that Pentium 2-core as the games need 4-cores to run, If you can get atlest a 4-core OR a 2-core 4 thread processor you should be OK. Have a think about it.
