lol - ok NO ONE refer to this in terms of building a PC - the guy used an EXCESSIVE amount of thermal paste for a start - you need no more than a grain of rice :eek: And as for that watercooling - Its a Thermaltake and they are like £50 - if that achived a clock of 3.8 then everyone would be doing it. I suspect more than a little 'trickery in this so called video' as for the RAM - I have seen a GEIL stick blow into pieces when a measely 2.5 Volts was put through it :eek:

Ok in terms of Graphics cards the fastest card available at the moment is the 280GTX BUT it is very expensive and will only give you the experience in crysis you are after if your resolution is above 1680x1050 which is the native resolution of a 20-22" monitor. So depending on the size of the monitor you will be able to save alot of cash if you are planning at gaming at a maximum of 1680x1050. As for the CPU it all depends on whether you are basing your build on a 1066Mhz setup or a 1333Mhz setup - (these are the speeds at which the CPU runs at and you must have a Motherboard capable of matching that speed) Any problems give me a shout ;)

Yes you do need a Blue Ray Burner. They are not cheap though, you are looking £80+ for one :eek: The disks themselves are also very expensive:- 25GB disks are between £7 - £10 50GB disks are between £20 - £30

Nvidia has not only ported PhysX over to CUDA, but it’s now set to release a WHQL GPU PhysX driver on 5 August, along with a bunch of other PhysX goodies, including some demo's Will be available on 8 series cards and up.

Disable Spybot Search & Destroys' TEA TIMER: (if installed) Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode. If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode" On the left hand side, Click on Tools Then click on the Resident Icon in the List Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts. Restart your computer.

If you follow the instructions to the letter - you will be fine ;)

lol - that aswell as the fact that everything here is like fort knox.

lol - as we have said before we are well aware of where all these threats come from and have the knowledge to stay well clear of it all - the main benefit I think people like us have is knowing what to do if anything does happen -

Have 2 mate - the blackberry is much much smaller lol

Randy with all due respect - McAfee is just as reknowned as Norton for not being very good - I myself as a suite would only use BitDefender or as I keep harpering on about, Windows live onecare. I do understand that there are benefits to individual products as they focus on one thing and one thing alone - BUT most of them are free and that means that they have no money behind the company to actively research and fight modern day threats.

I cant see the pics :(

Aren't some of the most poisenous snakes - water snakes? as for eating them - after watching the temple of doom - I will give it a miss thanks. As for Bambi mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

lol - he would probably make himself a new handbag out of the skin ROFL :D

Yes - that is very good - seen some of them before :D

Must have missed that one Maynard, as in Jacko??? lol

Lol - I only come here to see my friends that too have escaped from the looney bin :D I will now just refer to Maynard as *Plank* (just like in lock stock ROFL)

Maynard - you touch that button and I will pull your arms off and hit you with the soggy ends :p On a more serious note matey - you sort that pc yet?

Wolfey if you ever decide to plan a trip to number 10 give me a shout :D

Did you try to set your Internet Zone security to default? In IE open Tools\Internet Options\Security press button "Default level". Then go to Advanced (Tools\Internet Options\Advanced), scroll down to Java and see if the check box is checked. Enable "Active scripting" to allow javascript to run. It is under custom settings for the security zone such as "Internet zone" or "Trusted Sites".

You can drop the windows sounds - ie the clicks etc - but I know of no software that can let you mute one set of music and then control another unless its a game

I think as you do that there are far more worse things happening in the world than people downloading music - War, homelessness, we in the UK in terms of the government - I hate the government in the fact that they are so bothered about taking care of the rest of the world when they cannot even take care of their own - and its the same for the music and film industry they just want to make more money and when someone downloads something for free they are basically just taking money away from them - Its the same old story of ''the rich get richer''

If you list whats in the start up - we can tell you what you dont need and from there that should decrease the loading times.

Are you referring to the kids or the missus ROFL
