lol. i would never use that site just because you are giving them your bank details. If the BPI or whatever has the power to get your details from the bank then you're in trouble. Then again im not sure which is easier to encriminate? someone who downloads the odd song once a week, or someone whos bank details are with Allofmp3. should things go ugly, i wouldnt be surprised if they gave up the details of their members.

lol fat chance dude. I wouldnt mind some sort of visualisations, maybe like the bars one in wmp??

cheers. Just spent the afternoon tinkering with the overclocking feature with the utility that came with the gfx card. Ended up with a 4011 score on 3dmark06. pretty sweet, although wish i had a second 7900gt and an X2 4600 cpu to smoke that benchmark lol

u thought we logged i.p addresses? doesnt that prevent fake addys?>

just been checking out 3Dmark06. Mine scored 3901. This benchmarking prog loves dual core processors.Computers with say an AMD Athlon X2 3800, were getting around 7000 to 8000. Hey rob what spec u running? Take the benchmarking test? Anyone else??

I was reading somewhere that some games i cant remember if it was FEAR, oblivion, or battlefield 2, but there will be games that just run smoother with more ram. I also like to photoshop once in a while, nothing professional, just retouching etc, and then ram helps. Yes the truth is I would've been fine with 1gb ram, but i thought what the hell, i might as well have two if it will makie my computer that tiny bit faster. So basicly the answer to 'what games?' is 'for the games that can use it'. Yeah computers will run with a very low amount of ram, but you unlock alot of potential when you add more ram. I noticed the laptop I had got quite a bit faster when it went from 512mb ram to 1gb, 128mb of which was used for graphics.

Well I'm enjoying far cry at the moment, but was thinking of either getting Battlefield 2 or F.E.A.R when im done. I can play far cry with all settings set to the max, but i was wondering what I'd get with these two games. Ive got a gainward 7900GT, 2gb ram and a AMD 3500+ venice CPU. I can just imagine me getting F.E.A.R later on and wanting to upgrade something just to play it at its full capacity. hmm. Any words of wisdom?

i would suggest you put it up on ebay and post the link here.

lol, did u get he white or black version?? what games do you plan to get first?

a 2 metre optical cable for connecting my mobo to my JB980.

what temps does your CPU reach under load??

Just finished the Pier level on far cry and will start the next level tomorow.

heh aint seen you in while dude, maybe i just was too busy skimming, if the latter isnt the case, whats new? haha no, no need, i didnt but a new fan or cooler for my cpu. Ive havent overclocked my CPU just because im worried about stability. My mobo came with a thing called AI NOS a thing for boosting the CPU to 103,108, up to 115 %, and when i set it to 108, and scanning with norton while setting it, my comp froze on me a few times, it then would stick at the windows logo bit of restarting etc etc. I've decided to leave it as it is. I dont do any really CPU hungry things, just a bit of gaming. I know AMD's are meant to be overclocked but 1. i dont know how much, and 2. You just end up spending more money on cooling etc. If I do ANY upgrading at all it will be to spend 600 dollars on an X2 dual core processor. At the moment, just running s.s, and firefox, my case temp is 30 degrees C, and my CPU is 31 degrees C, or thats what the Asus utility AI Nos is telling me.

Was playing far cry all morning with my new pc It's awesome. It just eats through graphics hungry games and the case is keeping things nice and cool too. 31 degrees c Also enjoying the optical out from my comps mobo to my jb980 and listening to all my wav files on my hdd:)

very nice indeed

waiting for the courier to bring my PSU while i sit in my bed. It's 9:16am. Will go get some tea in a minute, then get dressed then have breakfast.

Well heres the whole setup; Just waiting for PSU now.

Link fixed

lol, yeah it isnt that clear at first glance as its a full shot, rather than a portrait shot, with flash like in the tutorial. http://www.tutorialwiz.com/smooth_skin/

Led Zeppelin 4cd box set, Disc 3. track: 'No Quarter'.

recording in SP via optical to a tdk Ho. Chilling also.

Cheers man as soon as i get my monitor, PSU, and XP pro cd, I might post a mini review

lol aww bless her. I guess its true about women when it comes to electronics. I suppose next time it would be best to plug the mic in before hand and show her the record button

so for owners of the nw-hd5 there really is no point in downloading the new version is there? Can anyone say if the artist link function works any better with CP 4 than it did with the previous CP?
