Damn sam =/ this is why i don't really trust royal mail sometimes they are real dicks.

 

[scaminatrix]

Yup. It's bloody happened again. It even happened with some RAM and a CPU that I bought from ab_manu123 through Special Delivery! I made sure I was adamant about it being sent RMSD because I know Royal Mail's going a bit dodgy...

 

[kurosagi01]

I would take royal mail to court for screwing with their customers.

[MightyMission]

If that was me sam i would claim aswell,it might actually perk up royal mail to get there isht together,that is a gtx 580 your mailing me isnt it
how could you prove it tho kuro?

 

[kurosagi01]

Yeah i know its hard to prove evidence of something like this but i'm sure there is always a possibility of showing evidence.

Well anyways... anyone watching the tennis game?

 

[MightyMission]

ahh no i was watching a youtube tutorial on fixing an lcd screen,seems too good to junk

 

[scaminatrix]

I wouldn't bother. There's no way of them finding out who it is without an extensive investigation. I used to work at DHL and they got wise to someone robbing stuff from there so they secretly set up cameras. Within 5 minutes of being on shift after the cams were put up, everyone knew about it so they didn't bother robbing. There's no way of proving it.

 

[kurosagi01]

I found a good deal on a IIyama 22" 1920x1080 with hdmi/dvi/vga and build in speakers for £70 i would so take it if i have funds. =/

Well anyone else apart from me is sport fan,i just find it amusing Usain Bolt wants play for Man united after retiring from his 100-200m sprint.
And Arsene Wenger is really pissing me off he needs stop signing youths,yeah i know getting youths is great as they can develop but Arsenal needs some oldies to provide motivation and experience.

 

[MightyMission]

thats not a bad price at all!
my mate gave me a dodgy LG flatron L204WT that does 1680x1050,all it needed was come caps replacing YAY!
i tried to give it back to him after explaining it only needed £1.84 in caps but he got himself a dell u20 something,beautiful but now he needs better gpu's lol,he maxed everything in metro and f1 and now his gtx280 isnt quite up to it!
i got a viewsonic 20" here that needs similar treatment,though changing the caps didnt sort this one out..

 

[kurosagi01]

Maybe theirs something else wrong other than the caps??
Lol a nice upgrade from a GTX280 i would say perhaps a GTX 560ti or GTX570 for definite lol.
From AMD has to be a 6870,6950 etc.

 

[cheesy999]

Chicken sandwhiches 2 days in a row, what more could I want?

 

[MightyMission]

I recommended him a 3gb gtx 580,because of the resolutions he would be using,and i probably should have recommended the AMD alternative too but i see so many people have driver issues with AMD gpu's that i didnt want to send my mate up shit street!

And yes you are probably right about other problems on the viewsonic,right now i cant find a multimeter to check any further,nor the interest to proceed on a monitor that is probably only 15-20 on ebay!

 

[kurosagi01]

LOL cheesy easy on the MaccyD and Mighty i would save your wallet and get an LED monitor or something.
Also for once i pre-order something in my whole life,got Zone of the Enders HD Collection for PS3 on pre-order as its 24.85 on zavvi.

 

[cheesy999]

LOL cheesy easy on the MaccyD

MaccyD!, who do you think i am?, i like my food with flavour, first day was southern fried chicken and today was roast chicken and stuffing

Also for once i pre-order something in my whole life,got Zone of the Enders HD Collection for PS3 on pre-order as its 24.85 on zavvi.

i didn't know you were a ps3 owner

i will lap you in GT5

 

[kurosagi01]

Unfortunately i don't have GT5 yet as i would love to get it but i would want play it with a Logitech Driving force GT or something. I love playing it at my uncle place since his got GT5 and the driving force GT. So addictive.
And yeah i am a PS3 owner lol my psn is on my sig if you haven't noticed it for awhile.

i agree with you, ps3 controller is terrible, i absolutely own on forza on xbox but for my tats the ps3 feedback with the normal dualhock controller just isn't good enough, i can never get the right balance of over-stear and understear and i can't gauge my speed well enough, luckily ps3 supports wheel so i may be getting one soon.

EDIT:s button still in't working properly

 

[cheesy999]

i found the collection you were talking about, by accident, think i might get it as well

 

[kurosagi01]

Haha if you like mecha action then i would recommend it,also have you tried tuning the cars in GT5?? It makes the races lot better.

yeah, only the cheap upgrade are actually worth it though - my Favourite car http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_SLS_AMG

EDIT:My favourite car in GT5, my real one is the Mercedes CLK DTM AMG (my Favourite car that is)

 

[cheesy999]

******* internet

My dream car goes something like this:

Mine would be a Black nissan gtr 2011 spec with chrome red wheels, had a picture but can't find it

Some facts about a GT-R

Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal to a GT-R.

Chuck Norris and Mr T. got into a GT-R and drove to a bar. The bar instantly exploded as that much AWESOME can't be contained in one place.

A tsunami that hit the Oregon Coast reportedly caused by an earthquake in Japan was actually the result of early engine dyno runs by the GT-R.

If you tattoo GT-R on your chest you will instantly become a superhero with the ability to take down Batman, Superman, Spiderman and the Hulk all together in a cage fight.

Order a Big Mac at the drive thru of a Burger King in a GT-R and they'll get you one. For free!

Scientists have estimated that the energy given off during the Big Bang is roughly equal to the GT-R idling at rest.

In honor of GT-R, all McDonald's in Japan have an even larger size than the super-size. When ordering, just ask to be GT-R-sized.

Han Solo thought the Millennium Falcon was fast until he drove the GT-R.

The grass is always greener on the other side, unless a GT-R has driven by. In that case the grass is now scorched earth.

When taking the SAT, write "GT-R" for every answer. You will get a perfect score.

If you Google search "GT-R getting its ass kicked" you will generate zero results. It just doesn't happen.

Driving a GT-R Walter Rohrl completed TWO full laps of the Nurburgring in 7.48. He can no longer bring himself to drive a Porsche and will demo the GT-R's air conditioning at Nissan press launches.
