I was still stuck on a dual core e8400. Was fine for most stuff, but for BC2 it couldn't keep up after I got a new monitor/higher resolution. But I didn't get the CPU for just BC2. Still have games like ME, GTAIV from many steam sales to get through.Uzique wrote:

Speaking of which, I had to play the game with everything on low, no AA or AF, and was only getting ~20 fps. Upgrade my processor. Get 50~60 fps with everything on high, 16xAA and AFCapnNismo wrote:

After a few minutes in BC2 on Africa Harbor. GTX 460 1GB, about 80 fps with all settings on maximum. For those that were still on the fence about buying a GTX 460 vs the Radeon offerings...
The 460 was good enough for me, just annoying that I had to spend more money to upgrade the cpu too.
my oc'd q6600 from 2007 was still pulling enough processing weight in almost all games

PS3 stuff:
Time Crisis: Razing Storm

And finally pre-ordered COD:Black Ops for the 360.
Also bought a 6 piece Torx kit and a couple 2.5 HD drives.
I'm afraid I will be putting it of untill it's too late though, which means when my current main drive (samsung F1 1TB) dies....

You've probably got a better processor. I just got q9550.
Also, I wasn't at an empty Arica Harbor either Was playing on a packed rush on Laguna something or other, the really long one in the jungle.
I did it this morning on my way out the door. I can do it again later after I finish dinner in an hour or so if you'd like, lol.
why even bother you're not proving anything except that the 6870 is better right out of the box

Borrow a cheap one for the build process.
im at uni accommodation... everyone has a laptop... i really wouldn't buy one if i didn't have to
besides, i'm going to need a working monitor at some point, whether this current pc set-up works or not
and, worst-case scenario, and i abandon pc's altogether... i'll just get a display adaptor for my macbook

for a fatty you're a serious intellectual lightweight.
Why, oh why..
Why do people persist on supporting one of the series that has gone from horrible to worse ever since it's 3rd release...
Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
your incessant whining is getting old now. I bought it because I want to play it, problem? or is it just that you can't afford it?FloppY_ wrote:

What's the point in having a strong currency if your stuff costs so much more OH SNAP

Tech in general has come down 20-30% in some areas.
CPUs, RAM etc, saving big bucks.

It costs a lot of money to ship 8GB via the internet
I assume that's a tax. Fire your government

It's just that I think there was so much wrong with the last one I can't understand why someone would pre-order itCamm wrote:

You got it cheap though, I'll give you that much...
Steam has it up for €59,99 which is a total ripoff

games are now SO prohibitively expensive that only a privileged elite can afford to buy them
the fact you'd take a screenshot of a shitty call of duty game is fucking pathetic. go get some real skill.

the fact that you even took the time to type that... just lol. I game because it's fun, and whiles away hours that I would normally spend doing nothing anyway. I don't game so I can become part of some elite clan, and wave my gaming-god dick around like half of you lot do. I couldn't give a FUCK if I wasn't good at a game. I derive pleasure from games, not a massive boner because I got a killstreak.
for a fatty you're a serious intellectual lightweight.
and apparently a smaller boner from the fact you can afford over-priced games and can then brag about it on a forum
