Re: Anyone else playing Star Trek Online?

Add me to your Cryptic friends list. It's "@bourwa" and it'll get all my toons. Of course I bought mine through Steam so I'm always on Steam too.

Anyone else playing Star Trek Online?

I'm having a blast playing this right now. Just interested to see if any other ATG people are playing?

Re: Posting my PC, but I have questions too

Looks like a solid system to me. Should run great for you. RE: 4GB vs. 8GB RAM. I have been running 64-bit Win & since July (RC and then Pro). I started off with 4GB because that is what I put in when I built this comp last Nov (similar reason to yours). I had no issues running everything with ...

Re: Posting my PC, but I have questions too

Anyways, my question is: Are these "gaming hard drives" I see really worth it? I saw a 150g Velociraptor "gaming hard drive" for 170 when I can get a TB for $50 bucks less than that! I mean I game, but how much difference will that make? I have quite a media collection on my com...

Posting my PC, but I have questions too

So awhile back I was talking about a new computer. Paralyzed with indecision I finally picked my build. Hopefully it doesn't catch too much scrutiny here, but I have a question afterwards. I am still waiting on a few parts, but they're in transit. CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE 3.2GHz Mobo - MSI NF75...

Re: Intel VS AMD

I didn't want to start a whole new thread, but I've got a build in mind for whenever I get my income taxes back. http://imgur.com/bfRLC.jpg Now my friends recently got my head spinning when they're talking about the CPU not being slower than the GPU to cause a bottleneck and the RAM and the blahadlk...

Anyone like 2fort?

I was wondering what the reaction would be to a 24/7 2fort? I like CTF and all, but 2fort is my second favorite. Ya know, when I need a break from Badwater. This may sound dumb, but 2fort is such a turtle map that I like it when you have long stalemates and it's just kind of a free for all battle. I...

Re: Intel VS AMD

I was hoping to spend ~$400 so I could get it before Christmas. I was figuring I could reuse some parts from my current PC (case, HDDs, drives, etc.) which may make $400 a possibility. If that doesn't look doable I may up it to $600 or $700 but I'll have to wait until income tax return time. I don't...

Re: Intel VS AMD

Wow. Lots of input thx. Speed IS a priority, but my computer has been acting crazy lately so time is of the essence making money the bigger issue. If I had started saving earlier I'd go Intel w/o a though. Waffle's statement about changing sockets kinda hit close to home though. That's the dilemma I...

Intel VS AMD

I'm starting to save up for a new comp. This one isn't cutting it anymore (single core Athlon, GeForce 7600, 3g DDR2). I've always been an AMD fan, but I'm seeing more reviews where they talk about Intel's for gaming machines. Does anyone who is more knowledgeable than me have anything to say about ...
