My mates looking for a cheap upgrade, Phenom II x4 or x6 but the price of a bulldozer FX 4100 is about £80-90 so im thinking thats the way to go.

Steam sales been pretty good, looking forward to playing LA Noire.

I laughed and tea got over my new monitor :( pain in the arse to clean it. I got a massive micro fibre face towel in a gift set and used that to clean the screen. Its pretty clean just with water but needs a wipe again when the towel has dried (i heard a mix of distilled water and distilled vinegar is great LCD cleaner but i had no white vinegar).

Its worse if your tea has sugar in it.

Small spoon of sugar in it, im such a retard but good thing is the cloth did an amazing job and even under direct light to the monitor i cant see any marks. The monitor looks like it did when i got it. Going to give it a wipe once the cloth has dried.

I just connected the FP connector on my xonar dx to the FP connection on my dell xps case, it does sound very nice with my sennheiser px100 phones.

the activation key should be universal. It doesnt matter if its for PC or mac they should all use the same activation keys.....

With that said. I will take it if you dont need it. I remember your saying your bank will set you up with free firewall and anti-virus software.

They do, that's why it's only going to someone I trust ;) Don't want someone taking the p*ss

If you have it, will it get used on a mac? I just want it to get good use :)

It wont get used on a mac, but i would give it to my aunt whose just rebuilding her life after a nasty divorce. single with 2 kids and put £100 towards my new mobile phone even when i told her not to almost to the point where I was a step from brainwashing her.

but she likes to give, so I'll give this to her as she recently moved into her own place with the divorce settlement money and got the internet set up.

I gave her a 'borrowed' version of norton 2011 to use for the time being (I cant always give out legit keys - stuff costs money you know) but its not going to last forever. Kaspersky would be a lot better.
