And I'll be going on a killing spree if it doesn't...

Or if you meant, like what need does he have for 3GPUs - meh, it's not my money... (and he wanted them)

quad 9800GX2s for loads and loads of cuda power
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

Those who don't want bigger LCDs usually have short GFX cards.

Surely it's the other way round?

They buy a bigger LCD to make up for their short 'GFX card'...

Is that the guy who got collectivly raped by all the resident tech guys?




Not that, I jumped on that bandwagon










On another note, looking at a possible htpc build (again).  I need it to look good with yamaha RV-3800 next to it.  That new Lian Li PC-X2000 looks ZOMGRAPGEFAPFAP.  But, have you seen the prices for it ?  Silverstone TJ07 is a looker aswell.

He may have a point.  The door on this case is squeeking to fuck, and seems to be grinding along the bottom

AND, it attracks a shit load of dust.
