boy do 6970s get fricking loud if you turn V-sync off. Playing a game of BF3 and the thing was going like a leaf blower!

MightyMission · Jul 4, 2011

Don't you hate seeing deals you can't go for?
that ram looks like it ticks the right boxes for price/capacity but im broke :banghead:

can you get better than 9-9-9 with that ram?

are you happy with the quality of the graphics tho freedom?
my first 470(a mile away from my previous 5600xt lol) blew me away with everything i threw at it!
RIP reference 470,it actually heated the front room on its own that card did..for a month or two..

haha if only there was an effective and cheap way to maintain 1 kelvin 24/7

send it up to space, in this ->

put them in my rig when freedom's not looking

thats actually a good idea, i can't buy things like that cause i end up spending my money on CD's + DVD's + Blu-Rays + Tickets to rock concerts etc etc etc

But won't freedom's Karate friend come and ninja me?

MightyMission · Jul 4, 2011

oh did you go to that concert yet or is it still coming up?
i just got no money to spend right now,i had ddr3 for 2-3 weeks and nothing to put it in :rolleyes:

TPU Headbanging Group unite :rockout:

MightyMission · Jul 4, 2011

oh fuck no,i cant stand rock music mate
that will make a pariah of me here but i just cant take it!i dont mind chili's or verve(if that even constitutes rock music?) and paint it black/house of the rising sun by the stones,
oh and teenage kicks by the undertones,and finally suspicious minds by elvis but the rest of it?noooooooooooo
different strokes for different folks mate.
i grew up where reggae soundsystems run in the (train bridge) arches and if you could scrape a coin or two together,
there was a blues dance to go to where you could rub up the wallpaper with a girl till it was time go to school/work/bed...
i think it was quite a divided area,and i went where the air smelled sweetest :laugh:

MilkyWay · Jul 4, 2011

When i was growing up everyone was listening to Soap on a rope, having their sugar and drinking their juice. AH 90s nostalgia ftw. Im not even into acid house or happy hardcore lol.

As for those g.skill i should try them and see if i can go better than 9-9-9-24 since i got my CPU-NB stable at 2600mhz.

FreedomEclipse · Jul 4, 2011

Just a little something while Im taking pics of my stuff for the FS section.

the red light is actually the Antec logo - it was blue but i changed it to red so it stands out a little more.

the 6970s are a pretty tight fit. Need to get a bigger case.

Cant fit a fan on the side panel as the fan on the Kuhler gets in the way

Bo$$ · Jul 4, 2011

guys i bought a SATA DVD burner and i need to know what type of power connector does it uses so i can set up the modular cables?

what sort of power connector does a sata HDD use?? (therein lies your answer my young padwan)

MilkyWay · Jul 5, 2011

The answer is within the question, a sata power cable.
You should have bought a nicer looking case to go with that tech Freedom. If you cant tell i hate Antec cases like the 1200 ect.

Fucking cases making me want to get the Corsair 600T. No i cant i already bought some shit this month and i still live at my mothers place so she would kill me if i sunk £120 into a pc case of all things. Clip round the ear as the English say.

EDIT: ever so slightly jealous of your crossfire set up, lol!!!

FreedomEclipse · Jul 5, 2011

Ive had the same case for about 3years, I can save a little money here if i can get it all to fit. but I think I need to get back to a full ATX tower again as this 902 is struggling to keep shit cool without the fan on the side panel.

and while there are still UK members awake. Im gonna plug my FS thread

Why does Sims 3 on PC cost more than the console release at brand new?? I can understand the console version isn't as good as the PC version,but the pc version been out for quite awhile now.

Well that's not very nice - there's gotta be a deal somewhere...

£24's the cheapest I can find with maximum laziness (Google shopping result)

You have a i5 750 and you are waiting for a 2600K. TPU has completely corrupted your soul I see.
