Can get a 2500k for £130 on ebay... but why not spend the extra £50 now and get a kick ass top end CPU right? right?

I am just gonna see how much CPU i can get a game to use on my current setup

If youre looking for a good deal on a 2500k and some other gear. go look at LifeOnMars's FS thread. dude has just lost his job and he could do with the cash. so hes selling off some high end gear

i can get 90% on BC2

and now i've redone my wiring and cleaned out the dust i don't have to under-clock it to avoid thermal throttling (stock AMD heatsink

) (actual problem is i've got a c3 with a max temp of 71'c but since its an unlock the board makes it throttle at 63'c like the original phenom ii chips)

I'm running vista, it was ok speed but when you activate ready-boost, on a usb stick, magic happens and it goes faster

Off topic again! I am looking for a knife sharpener, what should I get? Preferably something I can get online / easy to get in supermarket.

Looking at this one atm: http://www.amazon.co.uk/AnySharp-Glo...0318369&sr=8-1

Only complaint is that people seem to find it shaving too much metal off the knife. Any thoughts?

I have that exact same sharpner, and all I can say is get it. It's fucking amazing.

cheesy999 · Jul 10, 2011, 05:53 PM

do any of you have a system as balanced as mine?

scaminatrix · Jul 10, 2011, 06:01 PM

No, but I have a low score, if that's any consolation

Anyone got a lower score?

Over at Adobe forums they're using a modified file to show the scores from 1-10 instead of 1-7.9. No-one would give it to me

clicky b*stards

Millennium · Jul 10, 2011, 06:42 PM

cheesy999 · Jul 10, 2011, 06:47 PM

there is a big difference between your scores and mine, your using windows 7, i'm using vista, 5.9 is the highest score windows vista will give, therefore where mine looks slower then yours, my computer is actually so fast windows can not rate it properly

scaminatrix · Jul 10, 2011, 07:01 PM

for what its worth i used vista for ages and although its got some nice window dressing,i found it to be far inferior to win7,and one helluva memory hog too.

aren't we due a sync'd avvie change?

Maybe we could do sync'd up avatars but im going back to something for a few days, bring it up again next weekend and we can think of an idea for one, get Tatty and all the UK'ers involved.

If its using an old Nvidia TNT then it should *NOT run windows 7 period, XP would probably be slow. YOU hardly see anything that old paired with anything that isnt as old as it is.

cheesy999 · Jul 10, 2011, 08:34 PM

Ot but yet again Im watching a movie

And Summer wars is a fantasticly funny movie

If you didn't know, you can hit edit and ninja delete posts but mods and admins can see deleted and edited posts.

cheesy999 · Jul 10, 2011, 08:46 PM

It wasnt a ninja delete it took me half n hour to notice, and why would theybcare anyway, its clear i didnt post It there delibratley

Also

'is that a defense force motto'

'not really I just lifted It from seven sumarai'

KieranD · Jul 10, 2011, 09:11 PM

Well for a start it saves a mod coming deleting it, common curtsey i guess. Just seemed like you never knew about the delete feature, which might come in handy sometime.

cheesy999 · Jul 10, 2011, 09:21 PM

No, I just edited it out

Thought after half an hour it would.of been noticed by too.may people
