    I'll put in a few words about PSUs since it seems to be becoming an issue. Some brands are more consistent than others, Corsair has its ups and downs while Cooler Master has been pretty decent since they stopped using crappy third-party cooling fans in their PSUs. Thermaltake are mostly good...

    I am actually terrible when it comes to boxes, I have boxes for shit I threw out or gave away years ago. Fortunately they come in handy, my PSU box from oh...3 builds previous is still my "junk box" for little spare parts smaller than an add-in card and bigger than a case screw. As for...

    Show off your rig!

    I may be stuffing the new 970 in this weekend, so I'll snap a pic if and when that happens and drop it in here. [this space reserved for Boeing] Cheers!

    the reason the siamese twins moved to the UK was so the other one could get to drive for awhile.

    I am the one who will be bold enough to laugh in your face rather than behind your back, and hand you a beer with a welcoming smile while doing it. So...here's your beer :)

    Planning for Future Upgrades

    To be totally honest, I do perfectly fine without an SSD, though I have often considered getting one. Your most critical need right now is for a GPU. I might even be able to manage to have a lightly used EVGA GTX 670 SC+ 4GB (factory overclocked) for sale within a couple days, which would give...

    AmD Here! (No! not the damn CPU company)

    Though as you came voluntarily, it probably won't take much more than slappin' a cold one in your hand. over...and over...and over...

    Upgradin' Da Computah

    Thought I'd chime in since I've been doing this for the last oh...30 years or so. I'll start with the necessary: 1) Hard Drive is not Memory, it's storage. Anyone who tells you otherwise is blowing smoke. 2) Anything you buy today will be obsolete by the time Star Citizen comes out, so you...

    HOTAS Poll?

    The mouse is probably made in the thousands or tens of thousands if not hundreds; pedals, joysticks and HOTAS components are much more niche market and don't get the same economy of scale. They're also made of more rugged materials, as people are expected to put more umm...enthusiasm into their...

    No way it's Vanduul, it has normalish wings.

    Alien Ships

    Are you going to be able to CCU a ship to another one twice its price? I didn't think that was possible.

    Steam Fall Sale starts November 26th:

    The only problem with ME as a series is getting your character to import from ME1 > ME2 > ME3. I had to redo my character portrait each time by hand because they couldn't even get the fracking hair colour right. Actually there is a second problem, they completely changed the entire control...

    Manned Mars Mission Announced!

    NASA can't even manage to get one ship into space anymore, just beause of a little sailboat. What makes you think they will ever manage to get a manned spaceship to Mars?

    Strategy # 28-Alpha - Be like the bomb

    Why can't I get the "delete windows?" dialog box? :( In all seriosity (this is a word, I said so), I would love to be able to run everything under WINE on Linux, but for anything remotely recent, much less alpha, WINE is a pain in the arse.
