Whoa. V7 and at page 5 already? Not bad. S478 still going on strong.

@astria,
If you're just gonna BT/surf on that rig, no point getting high end stuff. A good X2 would suffice. Unless maybe you're gonna watch full HD movies? haha even then I still think its good enough.

Whoa. So good give out for free?

So what did you end up with?

@fylon

Go find some used cheap mobo in garage sales for temporary usage lah i'm sure LGA775 isnt as rare as s478

Eh fylon, didn't notice you also using the same casing as me. Cheap and good.

Haha I got mine for RM260. Wanted to get Thermaltake but good thing I saw this first. Save myself RM200

12cm fans, suck in alot of dust laa.

Haha I have yet to change all the fans in my casing. Now currently all using stock CM 12cm fans. Damn lousy. Want to get those Silverstones lah, but its soo expensive


Yeah. There's those holes at the back there where you can fit the WC tubes through. Don't know if its any good or not since I'm not into WC yet.


Lately my 6800GS overheating la. No OC also artifacts appear when playing CSS. Thinking of getting the Evercool Turbo 2 to replace the stock cooler. RM59 only.

Hey guys. How's it going? SPM's in two weeks. Gosh.

Rig's running fine, but my 6800GS is overheating and it cant cope with CSS with 10 bots

And anyone going to the RA3 launch tomorrow? I might be there.

I think my internals are too dusty. Too lazy to clean it up. Hmm..last I checked it hit 80c on full load. Caused artifacts to appear while gaming.

Thanks a lot bro Yeah I know, even with medium settings its lagging on my pc. Okay when playing online though.

Haha the RA3 launch was really nice I didn't buy it, but my friends did so I went there with them to kill some time. Quite worth it actually, RM139 for the standard pack. Got goodie bags, lucky draws, buffet lunch and free ice cream too.



Check out my coverage on the event : here. Couldn't stay for the lucky draw though, which was at 8pm.

Yeah. Guess i'll have to open up and do some housekeeping. Though it wasn't that long ago since I last cleaned my pc and parts.

My friend who bought the game during the launch is currently playing it using a ATI 9550 But everything has to be set at lowest tho.

Whoa. Thats blazing fast compared to mine. At least 100kb+ faster than what I can get

Yeahloh. No choice cause he really wants to play that game. At least his rig is an AMD64 3200+

Whoa. That 6800GT is a bargain.

Yeah the 9550 is crap. At least buy the 6800GT already can satisfy the recommended requirement for RA3

Yo guys! Whats happening? SPM ended today babeh

Ahh. So long never come online adi. Lost touch

So how are you guys la?

Thanks mates SPM's goood. Aiming for straight As

Right now, first thing to do is to clean my rig. Very dusty. xD

Wah X1950PRO so cheap. Last time I remember it costs more than RM1k when first launched

And 22" monitors are cheap too. RM600 can get a Samsung 22" LCD adi. Time for me to ditch my CRT

Yeah, LCD prices has dropped a lot recently. Can get a 24" for less than RM1k which was rather impossible last time

I might be upgrading my whole rig soon. Maybe in a couple of weeks time.

Yo guys how are you all? Long time never come here adi. Sorry weih. haha

Thinking of upgrading my rig soon. Seriously time for an upgrade. Should I go for I7 or save cash and go for C2Q? Really cannot tahan my P4 already.

Any advice? Thanks bros

Haha but the thing is I7's mobo and rams are damn expensive so most probably i'll go for C2Q.

yup i'll be multitasking quite alot.encoding and editing pictures etc

lately with my P4 and running lightroom, it takes a really long time for the pictures to load and also to process

Yup. My rig most probably will consist of a Q9400/9550, 4GB ram, 9800GTX+/HD4870 and some mobo

With that upgrade, I dont think I'll be upgrading for another 6 years

Yeah. Planning to lah, but until now still no green light from my dad economy aint exactly good right now, so have to tahan as long as i can.

Encoding 3 movies to fit on my ipod takes almost 5 hours on my rig. crazy man.

Haha plan to migrate only, but no action taken yet. Waiting till funds are available then only can migrate




Happyy Ox Year to all!!

haha looks like all of us are going to upgrade our rigs soon. P4 just wont cut it nowadays if you're doing heavy gaming/processor heavy applications

I'm sticking to C2D/C2Q. Eh, but the E2XXX series procs are quite cheap also what.
