And I regret it.

Just pre-ordered Battlefield 4 earlier (10% off pre-orders on Origin until 27 August over here). Got my rig back together with the new motherboard and CPU over the weekend as well.

Monitor died on me again.

ASUS monitors have great specs on paper. Hopefully you get a good panel. Would be better if you could inspect the monitor in person first before taking it home.

Personally, I use a Dell 23 inch monitor (U2312HM) and I'm pretty happy with the build quality. Well-made for sure. A bit better than the ASUS equivalent, IMO (the PA238Q - but that monitor definitely has more features!).

I takes a WHILE to learn how to play that game. So you might run out of time before you can enjoy it

Microsoft kills GFWL April 2014

 

[dont be a menace]

thinking about pulling the trigger on these

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...na-_-na&Item=26-816-008&Tpk=26-816-008&cm_sp=

what y'all think? having the dongle should make it that there's no interference between all my other wireless stuff right? and if anyone can recommend me a better one they own/like under $100 please do so. I had a ghetto set up where I had the headset from that came with the 360 and a 3.5 adapter connected to my mike for a while until i kept tripping on the wire

Get a set of Turtle Beaches!

I've had mine for a little more than two years and it's still going strong.

New to thread, but anyone on FFXIV a new realm?? Just copped..been 'playing' the pre-access, not bad at all 

 

[goste187]

ALSO, thinking about upgrading my 560ti to a gtx 760 Worth the upgrade?

 

[omgitswes]

I'd say yeah.
I'm thinking about a 570 to a 770 myself. Probably holding off until I'm able to do a complete rebuild though

Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll no.

just saw that. My friend said it won't officially release until 2015 or something like that, so maybe the prices will go down by then

 

[milestailsprowe]

Yeah if you have the cash sitting around.

Pulled the trigger on the 760...i looked at that ^ card previously, but its slightly too big for my case

 

[Nawzlew]

Got my Asus monitor in.

Maybe cause I've been on a 13" MBA screen for two months, but god this thing is gorgeous.

What case do you have. Can't be as bad as me with my SG05

 

[goste187]

I goy the CoolerMaster Storm Scout. Only 10.5'' clearance for vid cards, so I have to lean towards the smaller ones (pause).

 

[milestailsprowe]

Ok I see. It really bothers me how Radeon cards are SO MUCH longer then Nvidia
