So, which MOD are you using?

Oh hi there Amal! It's been a while heh. I'm currently using this one:
950MHz Core 1000MHz Memory MOD

How's ur OCing going on so far?

Nothing much.
Lazy and quite busy these days to play around with the voltage.
Btw, just bought Skyrim a week ago from steam sales. Finally can get my hands on em.

Where do u guys buy ori games here in MY... I'm not local so I'm not familiar as to where and how much it cost. Back home usually cost like RM100 for BF3... And about another 110 for the BF3 premium add on...

just want to know ,when u buy a vaio, do u have to register ur name and details etc on the spot so that the vendor can register ur goods for safety purposes.

Here, it's rather expensive to be honest. Expect the price ranging from RM200-300 for top titles. Actually, there is one potentially awesome seller here in lowyat.net itself. Try to look out for Impulse Megastore. They sell PC PS3 games etc. Bought Diablo 3 from him before.

Thanks for the info bro!... seems that i have to wait till i go back home to get one then. I go back every month anyway so in a way i can save up to half the price.

No problemo. Haha that's a good planning heh.

Already upgraded mine to Windows 8.
It was quite a smooth process.

Also MODed the New BIOS for Windows 8 :

where you buy your windows 8 bro? straight upgrade? or clean install?

Bought it online as an upgrade.
Promo price for usd14.99.

Yup, straight upgrade.
Need to reinstall certain apps n drivers back again. But not much.
Most importantly, it went pretty smooth.

thanks bro! im buying on monday...need to ask my colleague to help me purchase as i dont have CC

Wow you actually modded the new BIOS eh..that's splendid. Where did you get the Windows 8 online btw? Officially from Microsoft?

Well worth it.

Just need to be more patience and pray longer.

Bought it directly from microsoft :

Then you will get the promo discount code.

Download the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant app, then buy it from there.

i've fully upgraded to windows 8 pro. one prob here though. the stamina-speed mode is not working at all, cant find such update at sony website

using vaio vpcsb38gg btw. any help? o.o

I'm tempted to be an early adopter like you, but I'm still hesitant till I'm sure all my games will function perfectly on Windows 8. Skyrim & Saints Row The Third are my primary concerns. It's great to know that the dragon still lives on in the new OS haha.

I can play all of the games that I've tested, though I haven't test all of them yet.
I can play Skyrim just fine.
I don't own Saints Row, so I can't comment on that.

will be getting the upgrade next week...no more time this week but will be installing by december...i"m upgrading my ssd to 512... 256 not enough for me... )

Oh that's some great news haha. I've tons of mods I hope it can be transferred just fine without any problems. Oh really...I've seen complains over the net on how erratic Saints Row The 3rd performs on Win 8. Mind telling me which games you've tried so far?

Woot you're in the SSD gang too haha. How much is the 512GB ver?

Yeah, definitely not enough.
My 512GB SSD already near 90% of usage.

Added on October 30, 2012, 12:22 amI've only tried, Borderlands 2, Dirt Showdown, Battlefield 3, Crysis 2, CS GO, and Skyrim.
Some are merely testing, not fully tested.

It's better that you search the internet for the games you've owned, so you can get better information on the compatibility.
