..... or building a new machine... http://images10.newegg.com/UploadFilesForNewegg/AMD/HL2/index.html TFD

I'll let you know, but I would assume so. Has a fan in the front, on the glass side, optionally on the back and other side, and those front openings are open screens to the inside so alot of air can move thru it. ;)TFD

As I mentioned, this vid card is only temporary, gonna wait until the new releases come this spring, and then go all out. AOpen does a pretty descent video card, and it should do fine with this setup for whats available now. DFI is recommended as one of the better boards to use for overclocking AMD 64 processors, and as a gaming platform. Pretty sure, Crusial, Mushkin would be the best choices on ram for these. As for R1Pp3r comment, :roll: my post was related to the topic at hand, and I thought, since we chose the same case, he may like to see what I'm doing. Not trying to hijack his thread, and since I build computers on the side, and at work, I'd be glad to help him if he needs or wants. So, since your post was so darn helpful, why don't follow your own advise....TFD

Your opinion..... No.... TFD

Just ordered my new computer, thats the case I'm getting, but I'm also getting the fan controller not advertised at newegg, but is on the case makers site. I'll post my "wish list" link later, and you can have a look at my new rig, although, it's not nearly that cheap.. TFD

For me, its basically, if it don't bleed, I don't eat it. I'm sort of the opposite of a vegitarian, I eat next to no "greenery" as I call it. Just give me a big juicy medium rare steak or cheeseburger, and I'm a happy camper. To conteract the "health" issue some may see in this, I have a theory. I call it my "Drain" theory. You all know how when you poor grease down a sink, and you don't keep it hot, or you don't run hot water behind it, it very well can plug up the drain. My theory is, that so long as I continue to eat LARGE quantities of red meat, and don't stop, I'm not gonna plug up! :wink: Sound theory, don't ya think? :mrgreen: TFD

:roll: Something to be proud of. Why don't ya put that on your resume... TFD

I will concede that the women posted as desktops here are, but thats not the topic of the post either. That is the image of my current desktop.. ;)TFD

:wink:

I'm a computer IT/network administrator/programmer by day for a growing garage door manufacturer. On the side, I provide tech services to my area communities and families for troubleshooting computer issues, installing software, and I build computers for people as well. My one true passion though, is I'm a paid-on-call firefighter/engineer for my local fire department, where on occasion, I get to put out fires that guys like statecop create when they kick down the door of a meth lab, and it all goes up in flames.. I am a tech level trained HazMat responder (meaning I get to dress up in the fully incapsulated bubble suit and go stop really nasty stuff from leaking/spewing/buring or whatever), an extrication specialist, and an EMT. So, basically, I'm a pretty busy guy....TFD

Spamming a message board is sad. Oooo, aaaa, you have the most posts today........ big freakin deal... :roll:Sad = Someone who has nothing better to do than see how many posts he/she can get in a day/week/year on an internet message board... :roll: Kids.... :roll: TFD

I was figuring it was anyway, and almost posted a request for sources....TFD

Well, its been awhile since I played DC, but hey, may have to give it one more whirl to see what the new version will be like, before BF2 gets here.TFD

Been messing around myself with the dynamic ones available... Now just gotta play more (yea right) to get more/better stats... TFD

Awsome stuff!! :mrgreen: TFD

One of the reasons I was reluctant to join a "clan" in the first place... I am only able to play certain nights, and I play the Battlefield series only? Most often, I check, and there is no one there, and I usually don't play then at all. I found TAC thru BFV, now, my reason for being here is gone. Some what dissapointed I guess. I'll stick around for a short time to see what happens, then I'll guess I'll have to go play somewhere else?TFD

I would say that the performance, for the most part, improved dramaticallyTFD

Servers dead right now, lets get that thing rolling!TFD

True Heros. God Bless them all! Forever in my heart and mind... TFD
