Hmm, if we get rid of pensions and benefits, that will cut £200 billion out in one swipe, putting us back to surplus again.Cruel but necessary? As an added bonus, it will decrease Health spending too

National Insurance contributions go towards State Pensions.
Also cheap steel doesn't equal cheap arms unfortunately not at least in the UK, you'd have to think of taxes, high manufacturing costs and high labour costs also the MOD is the biggest buyer of UK weapons.

Anyway i keep seeing COD MW3 pre order adverts, i got several in my inbox. I cant believe people still want another one lol. Ubisoft should make a new Rainbow 6 game, i loved playing Vegas online.

EDIT: Dont you get callus when playing guitar?

I just noticed how this thread has had more posts in it this year alone than it ever did since it was created. Also noticed how much rubbish i can talk, i apologize implicitly for anyone suffering my banal ramblings.

Back on topic, got my G.Skill ram today 2x4gb! Ebuyer only sent it yesterday and that's it just came so that wasn't bad for the free shipping.

FreedomEclipse · May 18, 2011

still no word from ebuyer -- and my money hasnt been taken from my account just yet... probably means i didnt make the pre-order for the 5 p8z68 V Pro mobos they had in stock.... I almost cancelled my order last night but i checked SCAN and SCAN dont have any either.

Ebuyer still hasnt got back to me bout my E-note asking for an ETA and i dont want to call them up because last time i rang them i added £10-20ish to the phone bill because they always put me on fricking hold for so long...

I almost got pistol whipped by my dad for it. I had to pay for the phonecalls despite me rarely using the phone.

Im getting paranoid. Maybe I should just change my order and go with a p8p67 mobo instead -- id have it by friday

why dont you look at the other z68 boards, there are loads and all with some serious stock Motherboards Intel - Intel Sandybridge Socket LGA ...

FreedomEclipse · May 18, 2011

none of them look as sexy as the Asus board.

secondly if i was to choose one id go for the GA-Z68X-UD4-B3 as its within my budget.

but i cant seem to find any reviews of it

Is that what your looking for?

EDIT: Just a little note; the gpu acceleration on firefox 4 is annoying it slows down all my games and programs if i run it in the background. BBC Iplayer also works off of flash or something and that's gpu accelerated so it sometimes slows down because of firefox. Noticeably more on my sisters shitty laptop when i tried it then.

I was going to suggest calling them.

Send them another e-note every hour? Call them from work? Call them from the friend's house that you kind of liked to begin with but now find them annoying?

FreedomEclipse · May 18, 2011

thanks for the review -- 4.5Ghz OC on a 2500k is pretty poor when most are hitting 4.8-5Ghz.... defo not getting that board

FreedomEclipse · May 18, 2011

I filled out another E-note with ebuyer. hopefully i'll get a response this time. Cheryl the person who my first E-note was assigned to must be on holiday or something.

Bo$$ · May 18, 2011

PHONE them, stop being cheap and build for frigging rig!

Anywho, is that for real? Does the UK really spend that little on defence?

yes lol however that's 3rd or 4th highest in the world...

and imo we need to renew the trident system. we need to be able to act on behalf of a vulnerable country should they come under nuclear attack as we are part of the un security council.

anyway... the word defence is wrongly used here. it is offence. we only use our forces to attack... and with oil running out... we need to remain powerful if we are to continue OCing like mad OC robots... as without oil... there are no computers! :O

Damn man, was that my doing? With the PSU business?

To everyone: Only send E-notes 24 hours apart. Any less than that and you will either be ignored for longer for being a pest, or be seen as a spammer. Same with everything; e-notes, PM's to mod's, RMA requests etc. etc. etc. always wait at least 24 hours for a reply.

cheesy999 · May 18, 2011

headphones came back from repair today, i have to say play.com have excellent customer service

Bo$$ · May 18, 2011
