  1. This is the falcon guide: http://tinyurl.com/falconguide Scroll down to your budget and check the parts. Of course it is just a general guide.
  2. Just pirate the OS but theres a few things that stick out at me. The ram is REALLY cheap. I can tell just by looking at it. Try to get Corsair or the higher end G-Skill stuff. Value ram is good when you're doing basic things but for things like gaming it can be quite poor. I generally recommend something like XMS-3 because I've had hands on with it and it's great ram. I can't comment on the CPU because I've never tried it but for 15 bucks more you get a steep incline in performance if you buy the i3 2100. http://www.tomshardw...ark,3136-2.html Remember, If you buy this CPU you need to change the motherboard too. I don't understand the choice of Powercolor? Is it cheaper or s/t? Never heard of that brand and dont have choice to check right now. Oh and finally general rule of thumb is don't use Power Supplies that come bundled with cases. They generally suffer from power sag quite badly and are just overall shitty build quality. That one might be good but right now I don't have time to check. A little info about the falcon guide. It's generally made with best bang for buck in mind it isn't just by Falcon, but many users who criticise the parts and replace with better. It's updated reguarly and is pretty useful.
  3. Theres a difference between putting out too much info and over hyping. Over hyping is why Peter Molyneux needs a fucking gag.

    Does anybody have a simple guide for maxing all levels in 3 to 100? I always start sensible but end up getting the wrong perks.
  5. Absolutely. The improvements at those tiers are vast. The difference between AMD's CPU and the i5 you'd be getting would be massive. Same goes for the gfx cards http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/549?vs=547 While the 560ti is better for BF3, thats an old benchmark and drivers may be better now, pushign the scales in the 7850's favour. not to mention the 7850 is better than the 560ti for most of those games listed
  6. For 600 you're getting a good build for the most part. The CPU is AMD, but it isn't a bulldozer so thats not too bad. The 560ti is a more than capable card as is the 6870 if you're aiming for the lower end 600. Just if it was me I'd save that extra 200 because then you're getting the fantastic i5 range and Ati's brilliant 7850
  7. 600 =/= ultra settings on BF3 unfortunately, and if it did you're probably buying used parts which might not last as long or you're using AMD, and AMD is kinda shitty for CPU's. 800 is roughly the sweet spot these days with PC building. Makes it last for 4-5 years and more if you're ok with running it on Medium/High at 30fps (still looks good, and is playable) Start with the falcon guide. http://tinyurl.com/falconguide
  8. it probly work if you try do join my crew dat hustle
  9. I know right? Everybody should go back to dogfighting helicopters.
  10. It was fucking boring in GTA IV.
  11. I'm having a corned beef and potato pie for tea! Haven't had corned beef for ages, I used to live on that stuff. (Rations). Expensive as fuck tinned now. Not the kind of thing for rationing anymore.
  12. I finish my course in 2013. From GTAGreg22's fantastic posting I can deduce I should just give up on my learning.

  14. I use Comodo and the only trouble I had was the firewall blocked it opening, simple matter of clicking "Allow" and then never seeing another problem until trying to go online which was the exact same thing. Bunch of spackers. if your firewall is that poor that it stops you opening it. You've picked a crap firewall. Uninstall it and install Comodo. Better protection and free. Likewise, no issues on the AV front. I run MSE and Malware Bytes constantly and neither prompted an issue. RYG are probably using some piece of shit AV that they paid for, and it probably isn't NOD32, the only AV worth paying for. Are you implying that Michael Pachter said GTA V will be downloadable only? If so you're wrong, he actually said the complete opposite as in "There's no chance GTA V will be download only". Peter Warman from the Shit List said the 'download code' thing. Ah. Got my names mixed up. Disregard that section.
  15. i know its shit cuz its GTA5videos but the actual source is from a fellow forum member. not from this forum tho i dont think. Not difficult for somebody to lie and fabricate e-Mails.
  16. "Somewhat like an early stage of the game (1.00?)" No you shit monger. 1.00 would be the first release of the game, before patches. Not a beta.
  17. Thanks for the tips ill try to keep my emotions inside! I don't see why it bothers people that much. If you don't like a game just don't play it. There's a difference between a game being shit and thus people must be warned(such as Red Faction Armaggedon, or SWTOR, both fresh in my mind at the moment) and a game being recycled. Games like FIFA or Madden aren't bad. The functionality is there, it isn't super glitchy etc, it's just recycled.
  18. Machinima for dummies. I was doing machinima before I'd ever read it but it was cheap and is a good read.
  19. But... But... People have announced that they were voicing characters numerous times. I remember I think it was Young Maylay did, amongst others.
  20. Don't mention you dislike call of duty and the yearly releases of sports game. Also be prepared to be pushed to offer things such as Gamestop Elite service/preorders with every sale.
  21. What role would you folks have in an apocalypse? I like to think since I have no bug out location I'd take the role of a pirate radio type person. I'd also run a website where people can radio in or something and give a general location of where they are and what they have, to create small communes of survivors.
  22. And quite rightly so. Liberty City has quite frankly been a boring city. In 3 it rained all the time and was the dullest of the lot. The return in IV was probably the most boring Grand Theft Auto game I've ever played. Rockstar did that in theory. The entire 3 era was the same engine with updated graphics and new features (see also: CoD yearly releases). lets not forget the release schedule either. 2001, 2002 and then 2004.
  23. Michael Pachter doesn't know a fucking thing. Let's not forget how GTA V is going to be a box with a download code inside it... My only criticism of Max Payne 3 for PC is the DRM, They haven't disclosed if GameShield is the kind of DRM that limits how many times you can install it. That and Social Club is crap if you ask me. I use Comodo and the only trouble I had was the firewall blocked it opening, simple matter of clicking "Allow" and then never seeing another problem until trying to go online which was the exact same thing.
