Didn't really have the money but spent it anyway.

>> Pic Gallery <<

Zalman CNPS8000 CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940/AM2/LGA775)
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR Edition" Retail
Asus Maximus Formula
2 x OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-8500C5 1066MHz SLI-Ready Edition Dual Channel DDR2 (4GB total)
Asus GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)

Put it all together carefully, fired her up and installed Vista Ultimate 32bit.

I've played COD4 and just getting started on Crysis. Both look very nice, need to see more of Crysis before I pass any judgements. COD4 is up at max and no stutters, looks a bit better than my old rig, more detail and no slow down. Crysis I started on "very high" and it stuttered a bit. Will have a play with that soon.

Not tried LFS yet, but its going to fly obviously and not going to look any different. Just 200+ FPS I guess. Will get that bad boy rigged up maybe tomorrow.

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Looks like a very nice system.  What case are you using?  anything nice?

Oh,  theres a vital component missing, a round thingy in front of the screen, and some pedals.

Broom broom,  hehe.

MOOoooooo

hey mate! for some reason Im not getting emails from the server when someone replies to posts, checking that one out!

Aye, never managed to get the wheel set up, or indeed LFS unlocking. Been too busy marvelling at next generation graphics!

Crysis, Unreal 3, Commmand and Conquer 3, COD4, Bioshock.. and more, they are all very nice looking games, I'll get bored of them soon and come looking for steering feel again!

Be good to see some peeps on the track again some time soon, Im dashing off to brum this week so might be next weekend like.

MOOOOO
