I think it's funny how you change hardwarez so much... you're up and down like a yoyo. One minute you're crying out for a Corsair 850W then the next you get a crappy Silverstone 500 with like 10A... rofl

What's happened to your laptop you were getting anyway?... considering laptops get out dated in like a few months then it can't play no new games so laptops suck.

Bugger it, I'm gonna get a E8600 and 2GB RAM.

Silverstone are actually really good for the price you would be surprised by the build quality.

Anyways I've not got anything yet I'm on my current work laptop also i never said i was defiantly going to get a gaming laptop maybe a car now but in general my rigs not my most top priority at the moment.

I could get a rig like intel extreme edition, phase and everything but meh just not worth it at the moment.

they have scrappage in Ire? the vapor-x is the card i wanted originally..shame it didnt come out a bit sooner.

still stock cooling on the 5870 is fine. 32c here at idle.

re kyzler's antics i actually did post as a joke when he had his 5850 that 5770was next...still must be fun to trying out new stuff all the time.
