Pink Floyd. Just look it up yourself.

I just overclocked my Radeon Mobility 5470 in my laptop... Default clocks were 750 Core, 800 Memory. Now clocked at 845 Core, 930 Memory. Increased FPS by 6. Lets me play DXHR Beta with max GFX settings (no AA) with the same framerate as minimum settings.

I never get accused when I'm hacking, and I always get accused when I'm not... Weird...

Awesome! Way better than most sites out there...

Came out Q1'11. (first quarter, this year) Most do.

That runs off of the LGA1155 socket. The only limitation is the chipset. (have to have one that supports multiple PCIx x16 ports, and SATA III) Besides, that system (other than a video upgrade at a later date when he's wanting to play Crysis 2 above Medium settings) will most likely do everything he'll need it to for the next 5-8 years. This is what he's using it for: He doesn't need a GTX 5XX series GPU, and probly won't need to upgrade for the next 3-5 years. One last thought... Once you know how to build your own system, upgrading the motherboard isn't a problem. Even reactivating Windows afterwards is getting easier.

You work out the date and time and I'll do my best to have a decent dedicated server for us.

Banned for not telling Username that I can get him a free upgrade to Win7 Ultimate that breaks no laws.

Who needs 'CORN COBS' when you have Popeye?

Is There Anybody Out There? - Pink Floyd

Trying to not be bored... Kinda hard knowing that its over a month until DXHR...

Well, I guess that includes mine too then...

Doctor who? Yes.

See Dick run! *you shudder as the image of a penis ripping itself off a guy and running down the street makes it's way through your head*

Banned for not knowing that I like Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Who needs J.C. Denton when you have Adam Jensen?

Life is like a bag of shit... It stinks, and it always seems to show up on your doorstep.

I know, typo. The Animal - Disturbed

Hate to argue with you here, but... First off, he'd have to get an after-market CPU cooler with that (~$20 for something barely decent), and thermal grease. (another ~$5) Second, there is little or no upgradeability with those. No futureproofing. That's the key when doing a wholly new computer, making it's longevity be as long as possible for minimum price now and in the future. [i am a hardware Guru. I can make incompatible old hardware sit up, assemble itself, and run the latest games at medium settings with only a threatening glance.]
