Yea thats my old one,RIP old chiller
(i moved it when the pipes were frozen,so they burst and it pissed r22 out in quite a jet)

I feel like i let you lot down with my lack of trekkism,find me an unused character and i'l put it.

On the bright side tho i got a couple of parcels today
the ati card is workin a treat and im using my boys resuscitated computer now :cheers:
just got to find moaar ddr,768mb isnt quite cutting it!

you guys reckon a crosshair 3 F is worth 50?

Cheesy:i done really well on all the old races up to gt4 when they added that G force thing which really messes me up,and the physics arent right for front wheel drive cars..
thats my excuse anyway

GT5 seams to be the most realistic one i've tried, (who would of guessed?)

i've managed to find a way of making guitar hero harder without getting stupid, spin around on the spot whilst playing

The card turned up already? Well done Royal Mail, keep it up...

Here's a Romulan for you Mighty:

 

[MightyMission]

hahaha

i played prologue gta5 and it was quite nice but the blur on the ps3 put me off a bit,just made me want to play it on pc instead,shame emulators for ps3 arent going to be usable for at least the next 10 years

Cheers sam,for the bits and for putting a rocket up RM's ass,your stuff always gets here sharpish!
i'l put the avvie now

Don't bother ordering from scan, i ordered something for next day delivery, the next day what was delivered was an email saying they'd ran out of stock

The card was from scam not scan

 

[MightyMission]

another sleepless night cheesy?
scan can be well slow though,scam needs to give them some tips!

 

[cheesy999]

oh no, i know you meant scam i was just warning people not to buy from scan, like if ebuyer decided to mess me around i'd of written ebuyer instead, its not my fault they have similar names

another sleepless night cheesy?

no i woke at 11 today, then again went to sleep at 2 so...

 

[scaminatrix]

I don't think I'm ever buying from scan again. 1 RAM heatsink costs £1.56, but ends up costing £6.70 with delivery What's wrong with a f*cking envelope and a 46p stamp?

 

[MightyMission]

i wont deal with scan again for shafting me with the 470s
love these cards but i ordered reference not stupid cant get a waterblock for models!!

 

[scaminatrix]

you guys reckon a crosshair 3 F is worth 50?

Just spotted that! Yea, depending on condition. Gotta be in bits and box to interest me, but that's just me lol £50 for it is okay IMO.

i get free delivery, that's why i ordered from them, at least the customer services department fixed the problem - by taking out the cooler from the order (which i will order in a weeks time)

 

[MightyMission]

you mean the little square ramsinks?9 or so prongs on like a 15mm square pad?
i bought a waterblock kit for a gtx 280 that come with a bunch of ramsinks that never got used.
still need the ramsinks?

 

[scaminatrix]

Na these ones mate

Thanks for the offer - although I recommend you keep them - it's the sort of thing I always keep spares of, as you never know when you might need to strap a sink somewhere

i get free delivery

How'd you swang that?

 

[MightyMission]

oh right heatspreader types,i get ya!

 

[scaminatrix]

I'm off to get a long overdue haircut, see you in a bit peeps.

*laughs while looking at avatar*

 

[MightyMission]

[Spectrum]

I made a few posts on the av forums and they've got a link there that upgrades your scan account to free next day

 

[MightyMission]

do they offer any other upgrades?

 

[cheesy999]

Not sure go and see, Tpu is one of the few tech forums with no offers at the moment

 

[MilkyWay]

The free delivery isnt really an upgrade it just makes them equal to buying from ebuyer since they also offer free delivery.
I always count delivery in the price, so £65 ram actually costs £65 not £70. Paying for delivery only works if you buy in bulk so the costs are spread out.

I am an avforums member i used to post in the LH4000 thread thats an LG tv btw. Not been there in awhile though.

Theres quite a few main characters left to choose from for Star Trek.

I love that bottom one!!!

Yeah i thought so too.

Just hope to hell no ones picks any Star Trek: Enterprise characters that was fucking shite, i think i saw 1 whole episode. The only one i really watched was The Next Generation, here i remember being on before that was Robot Wars, wtf ever happened to that? I remember they sacked Jeremy Clarkston from Robot Wars because he made fun of the contestants too much then it was Craig Charles who was in Red Dwarf at the time.
