  1. Pentium 3 and a 128mb stick of 133mHz CL3 PC133 ram
  2. Dual GPU cards generally haven't been announced at the same time in the last few generations
  3. I have an old HDD because when I built my rig I didn't want to spend the extra cash to buy an SSD
  4. I always want the best specs for my gaming pc. Nothing says you are cool on the internet more than some pc gamer master race e-peen! good luck and thanks to linus and the sponsors!
  5. Most gaming headsets don't have super good sound quality, compared to high end headphones. If you want good sound quality go with headphones and either a modmic or a desk mic. Keep in mind the 558's are open headphones, which means the sound is more natural but the sound also leaks out so others can hear what you are listening to

  7. I have the nexus 4 and I really like it. It is a tad fragile, as it has glass on the front and back. The best thing about owning a nexus device is the speed of updates, and the relative low price for an unlocked phone. Even the Google Edition HTC One and GS4 don't get the updates directly from Google once they are released. Before the end of the year I'm assuming Google will release a nexus 5 or similar, since they have been doing yearly releases. If you wanted, you could wait for that phone since it will have better specs. The only things I don't really like about the N4 are the lack of LTE and how fragile it supposedly is. I haven't personally had any problems with dropping it, but I take really good care of my devices. It also has a 720p screen, compared to the 1080p on other flagship devices. However, it is only $299 unlocked for 8gb or $349 for 16gb. IMO the nexus 4 is a great phone and a solid choice.
  8. I've had my x12's for 2 years now, and they are doing just fine. The sound quality is pretty bad but I have had no problems, and I have used them a ton since I got them.
  9. I must say, that is one damn good reason not to like it. That is really dumb in my opinion that they aren't allowing a program like that even after you contacted them. :(
  10. Personally I like BF3 a lot, however there are just so many great games out there. Pick up a bunch on sale and go ham, see what you like.
  11. Star Wars Battlefront 2 on PSP by far. I did free play on that for over 250 hours most likely, loved it so much. Hopefully DICE and EA don't ruin Battlefront 3 like I know they will
  12. New Vegas is a great game, especially for $5 with all the DLC. I personally like Fallout 3 better but I would recommend just getting both because they are both awesome
  13. Why exactly, if I may ask? Main reason I like it is because of the sales and it's the main PC gaming platform so it's where my friends are.
  14. so far... Bastion - $2.24 Bioshock (1st one) - $4.99 Fallout 3 GOTY - $4.99 Fallout New Vegas Ultimate - $4.99 Castle Crashers - $3.74 Half-Life Complete - $9.99 Haven't wanted to waste my budget early on just in case, still have $21.44 left. Hopefully Skyrim or Oblivion will be cheaper and then I'll grab them too :D
  15. I would like it because windows 8 is terribad and I would really like to save the money from an OS to spend on other components on my parents pc that they're gonna get soon. Saving money is always a good thing in my book. Cheers
  16. I haven't heard of your case before, but by looking at it I don't believe that a 230mm fan will fit without modding because the mounting holes are for 250mm. There is the possibility of modding it for a 230mm, which should work. The easiest solution I could think of is to just get a 250mm fan. If you really want to use a 230mm fan, from pictures of the case it seems like it would be easier to drill the mounting holes for the side panel fan rather than the front facing one. Once again, I don't have any experience with the case and I don't know how the mounts are laid out, where they are, etc.
  17. I recently got a new case, psu and graphics card, but with my old mobo, I only have enough fan headers for the cpu fan and one case fan. I have a couple more fans I'd like to use but I don't have the motherboard headers for it. What is the best way to get more fans hooked up, a direct psu power adapter or a fan splitter for the motherboard header?
  18. This is my entry.... and some OC Cube World is freakin awesome!
  19. Recently I've gotten into playing EVE, what a fantastic timesink. Also Minecraft, and Civ 5
  20. "War. War never changes." -Epic intro guy from Fallout
  21. For me, having capacitive buttons on the front of the phone at all bothers me, as I am used to softkey buttons. I have a Nexus 4 and 7, and using friends' GS3s just feels weird due to the home button and capacitive buttons. I haven't actually seen a One in person, but it seems like a beautifully well built phone. However, the placement of the lock button and volume rocker seems odd for a right-handed person (to reach the lock button I think I would be hitting the volume rocker). Have you noticed anything of that sort with the placement of the buttons?
  22. Nexus 4 user here. I love the stock android experience and it gets updates immediately. It is one of the best android phones out there in my opinion and I'm really happy with it.
