So i got a sound card for christmas and i thought it wasnt going to make too much of a different with mediocre speakers, but oh was I wrong. It sounds amazing, and i wasn't even using War Tapes.

Cool. Yeah the sound really is incredible in this game. The first time a jet screeched by me I almost shit my pants. And that was with a pair of 4-year-old $75 Sennheisers. I've "been cool" to the neighbors and not played BF3 on my Z-5500s yet.

Yeah I've got an old set of turtle beach 5.1 headphones I use. It isn't my neighbors
that cry when I crank up the 5.1 DD it is the wife.
Of course the sub rattles the windows.

This is the craziest man in the world. Going that fast in the air is scary, going that fast less than an inch about the ground is a whole new level of crazy.

the difference is that the wingsuit guy will die if even a part of him or that suit touches a tree or the ground. the luge is wicked but nothing really beats flying like a squirrel off a cliff and down a mountain.

The likelyhood of him actually him a tree or the ground is slim, while Streetluge guy only has to let his foot fall too far, over steer, hit a pebble and he is street pizza. No amount of pads will help when you hit pavement going 97 miles an hour.

The guy in the wingsuit will die instantly. Streetluge man will spend several days in a full body cast before dying of internal bleeding or having sand as bones syndrome.

Yes it's essential for higher (read: worth a shit) settings as 2GB was for BF2 as a first. I luckily had just recently bought an 8GB 1600 kit a couple weeks before release not because I needed it for anything at the time but because it was a $30 Shell Shocker. Sure glad I did. Though it sucks I can't use my high freq Super Talent Hypers anymore. Thinking about trying to find another two sticks of that but it's hard, esp as they will need to be exactly the same down to the black PCB (well doesn't matter if the 2000 C7, 2133 C8 or 2200 C8, but all else the same).

Um I don't recall the actual numbers/percentage of 4GB used that can't be right. It's generally established based on experience here that 4GB is not enough. For higher settings and 1080P+ anyway.

Yea, I had 3GB temporarily until my 8GB kit arrived and I experience stuttering so bad it was unplayable.

I check task manager while the stuttering accorded and it would eat 2.89GB of 3GB.

Sweet. Cheers to that admin. If more servers had ones like this guy there such egregious cheating would not even be close to possible.

P.S. Next time just edit the other post if yours is the last...
