CIPWTTKT&GC v0X12 (v18): Makol can't Computer Very Good - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=VistaPOWA;35441828]Has any of you ever used a Commodore Gravel? My friend got an unopened one for $5 at the flea market, but he can't use it because it requires activation and "Commodore World" doesn't exist anymore.[/QUOTE] Nah, anything after 1998 isn't real Commodore anyway, just a brand name on some other crap company. EDIT: For those who disagree, imagine Apple with Sir Jonathan Ive gone, and all of their hardware and software design division, it wouldn't be the same company would it? It would be an imitation, none of the vision or creativity that went into defining that company and its products would be there, its not the same. Commodore USA is splurging out expensive gimmicks and its depressing.

I can see a BF3 themed case mod being done on the green one though

[img]http://betanews.com/wp-content/uploads/media/09/910.jpg[/img] Can't help but see that in it. [editline]6th April 2012[/editline] Hmph. Never had to fight for CPU on a server before. Not fun starting.

Speaking of the GTX 600 series, my 680 was dispatched today! I'm damned excited.

I wouldn't mind Halo CE Anniversary coming to PC if the whole multiplayer from the original was updated too along with some new maps.

[editline]6th April 2012[/editline] I mean it's seems pretty intuitive that that would be a product that exists, right? I can't seem to find it though.

[QUOTE=inconspicious;35442422]ITX? what the hell would you play? Minesweeper?[/QUOTE] I used ITX in my gaming rig till a year ago. Sure, they're mostly Atoms and such, but you can find some pretty decent boards.

I don't really like how the case looks, either.

[QUOTE=Makol;35441988]New Corsair Vengeance case line. [t]http://www.techpowerup.com/img/12-04-05/c70_all3.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Well, Corsair was doing pretty alright for a while. Guess it's about time they do something really awful! :v:

[QUOTE=:smugspike:;35442711]Well, Corsair was doing pretty alright for a while. Guess it's about time they do something really awful! :v:[/QUOTE] They have kept the ugly reigned in quite well with this one, its relatively tame compared to some of the crap I've seen. I wouldn't say its awful by any measure.

I wouldn't say those are awful tbh, but they're not good either.

[QUOTE=Allstone;35442412]Looks nice, but I'm mainly annoyed that nobody makes Lan party portable style cases with handles and whatnot in mATX or ITX.[/QUOTE] BitFenix is making a really portable and spacious M-ITX case called the Prodigy though, right? I still plan to blow however much it costs to get one, I've always wanted to have a portable M-ITX box. :v: [editline]5th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=inconspicious;35442738]They have kept the ugly reigned in quite well with this one, its relatively tame compared to some of the crap I've seen.

[editline].[/editline] That's not so much to say I think other Corsair cases look [I]good[/I]. These ones seem sorta gimmicky. :v:

[QUOTE=inconspicious;35442738]They have kept the ugly reigned in quite well with this one, its relatively tame compared to some of the crap I've seen. I wouldn't say its awful by any measure.[/QUOTE] The more I look at those, the less awful they get. What is the thing on the right on the front panel? It looks like something with a glass cap on top of it, as if it were to launch nukes or something. I'm fairly happy with my 600D though.

[img]http://puu.sh/o3Pi[/img] Yeah fuck off microsoft, you aint having any more of my money.

whut? So my parents got back from America and have to show pictures to everyone. The slidwshow thingy built into windows picture viewer didn't work. Just kept loading. I changed the resolution from 1080p to 720p (50" TV, it is not like it matters because the text looks bad on it when you are using it as a monitor) and it works, wtf?

Oh man, this is hilarious. I'm trying to play FlightGear. Trying. So far I've crashed every time. I start the engines (had to look in the manual), throttled to 90% (also needed the manual), released the brakes (manual), pulled back on the yoke (first thing I *didn't* need the manual for), and then promptly: a) Go into a loop, stall, and crash, or b) go into half an aileron roll, stall, and crash It really doesn't help that it lags like a bitch on this computer - it feels like 20FPS or so, on near-minimum settings.

And my main mouse does not like to scroll anymore. It scrolls and then says NO FUCK YOU I AM JUST GOING TO MAKE THE CLIKCLLICKCLICK LIKE I AM SCROLLING BUT NOT RECEIVING IT BECAUSE! Meh, I have two mice (Mice, mouses, how the fuck do I say that?) and both work well-ish.

Boeing 777. Charles de Gaulle airport. It seems to crash and break on spawn - you start a few feet in the air, then there's the banging, then the crunching, and then the beeping of the alarms.

[QUOTE=:smugspike:;35443051]mice is the correct plural [editline]5th April 2012[/editline] also what mouse is crapping out on you?[/QUOTE] It seems to be working (At the moment) but it is a a4tech x-718BK Cheap but goodish. It has lasted a long time. 2 years now I think. It is comfy and stuff. I like it!

[QUOTE=Goz3rr;35442872]So they basically went all Apple. Woo android![/QUOTE] No. Not "woo Android". The entry fee on iOS and in the future WP7 is because the apps make substantially more revenue than apps on Google Play.
