I won't and I don't care about ultra graphics anyway. 20-30 fps on low kinda sucks though(bf3)

 

My Alienware laptop plays Battlefield 3 on Ultra at 2560x1440 at ~25fps. If I drop MSAA to 0 it runs at a comfortable 35. What GPU do you have?

As for worst mistake I've ever made, I sold my iPad 3 to buy a Nexus 10. Thing ended up being a glitchy mess constantly rebooting with low performance in browsing and in games and terrible battery life. Everyone on XDA developers said, "To wait and that it's a Nexus and Google will fix it!" (There were threads and threads with everyone having the same experience as I had). And eventually after 5 months said enough is enough and got rid of the thing.

It only improved a bit and this card wasn't worth the money imo. :(

It's even worse at the moment, Different case, many more SATA cables hanging around, SSD dangling in empty space with 3.5 adapter still fitted.....

 

I would post a new pic but I already reek of shame. :lol:

It's a scythe ultra kaze (yes, probably made by delta), and I was using it because they were on my radiator (you may notice CPU + 2 x GPU, what you can't see is the single 360 rad....).

 

If you've already got three running at full blast, it really doesn't matter if you add a fourth and I had some spares. :lol:

 

This rig is NO MORE, the only things I retain are the GPUs and a couple of HDDs.
