I had one of them 7950 GX2 cards, basically two cards in one kind of thing, that thing got loud once it built up heat, haha

I know Dave, that is very true. I did learn from my error tho, back when I built my first W/C rig I went with two 8800GTS in SLi and it cost me £700 in GFX alone, never mind the EVGA mobo (£190), Q6600 (£150), 4GB RAM (£100), watercooling gear (£350), various HDDs totaling 4TB storage (£???),850W PSU (£90) and a Lian Li V2000 (£200) to stick it all in Clearly that was a time before I had the Zed

SLi is stupid, had it before and it does not split the load evenly between cards, one ard would run 100% with the other kicking in wen needed. can't comment on Crossfire.

+1 well it was £450 but got it for £200 But really no need to upgrade from a GTX480 just yet. Unless you want to play Battlefield 3 with all the bells and whistles... Thank god I'm a CoD guy

Just make sure the memory card has te correct transfer speed otherwise it won't record any video. Class 10 should be fine tho.

Do I see the back end of a RPG in that pic?

My GFX card alone cost me £450, and it's out of date again....

I like ICS, got one myself, but haven't played in a long while. Converted ICS M4 with G&P floating front, crane stock, uprated spring, ready mag system and ACOG scope

My recent upgrade of CPU, RAM and mobo cost me £430. i5 2500K 16GB RAM Asus P67 mobo Previously ran Intel Q6600 Quad overclocked to 3.0 Ghz 4GB RAM EVGA 780i mobo

You could spec up the hardware in an eBay machine and see if the sum of parts is cheaper and then.self build.

My preference is building one, but then I would go for a higher budget if you want a half decent rig that can play games for the next couple of years. It also depends what else you expect it to do and how well it does it. Decent power supply is a must in my opinion.

Mind you, I'll be willing to wait and see what Tarmac can provide once he has a CF fabricator

I know I'll prolly get flamed for this, but my brother just bought a set of XXR 527 wheels in 18" for his Celica. Paid just under £700 for 5 wheels without rubber. They seem to be a popular choice for people on a budget and don't do any tracktime.

But honestly tho, if the theory of Top Gear is anything to go by, then perhaps in a few years, the CF goods may well be acceptable in fit and finish.....not holding my breath tho.

Seeing it's from China, I wonder if the quality would be up to par?

If Microsofts track record is anything to go by, then Windows 8 will be epic fail. It's always every other OS they bring out is any good. WinME = Bad WinXP = Good Vista = Bad Win7 = Good Win8 = ??? (but prolly bad, lol)

It might be Cranberry & Vodka Yes, those are indeed fillport lines. One loop for CPU, one loop for GPU

Win7 here, since I cannot play FPS games on a console at all, grew up on CS 1.3 and it's become second nature to use keyboard and mouse instead of a game pad. Also for my requirements I need an OS that can handle singular files larger than 4GB Recently did a mini upgrade on my PC with also involved using Hexis vinyl From this: To this: Asus P67 Sabertooth motherboard Intel i5 2500K CPU 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz RAM EVGA GTX470 HydroCopper graphics card Personally I find it looks just as sexy as an iMac

Doesn't work on all models though, I have a cup holder there...

Windscreen washing kind sir?

FMBC (Front Mounted Beer Cooler) seems a good idea tho... The Zed could basically go for the interfooler look (i.e. fake FI), but then plumb it to a beer tap inside the car.

I wonder if at the checkout there is an option to tick "Would you like to go large?"

Good Lad See even a big holiday can't make you forget the Zed

Seeing that it's McWheels......Ronald McDonald...?

Wing mirror drop and tilt mod for reverse?
