Forced Break

Hey all

Just to let all of my regular teammates and friends know, the motherboard on my computer fried last night and that is forcing me to take a break from the game until I can fund a replacement computer. So I'll see you all when I get back up and running, most likely by the end of the month.

See y'all soon,
Az #2

If monkey has been flinging poo at the movie screen again, then Shard gets banned from the "Hot Asian Girls That Kick Butt" movie festival next month.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooo!!!

In his defense, Fairy was teasing him so I think he might have flung a little poo out of spite. I'll clean it up this evening... no way I am missing Hot Asian Girl night!!

Guzuntite!

Honestly, I have no idea about those things. I do know that I should be looking for a high speed RPM w/lots of storage room on my hard drive, at least 6GB of RAM, dual graphic cards if possible (I don't even know what a good card is) and a quad core processor. People have recommended having a custom system built, but I don't know anyone that does that, let alone know what they are talking about when it comes to specs and hardware.

Damnit Obs, I'm a fashion designer, not a techie. I just make things look purrrty.

Ok all cleaned up now. Sorry for the mess. I guess he needs to go back to Monkey obedience school for a refresher...

If you want to use 6G of RAM, be sure you're using a 64-bit OS.

SLI or Crossfire is alright, but I hear that CoH doesn't ereally take advantage of the tech. You're better off spending money on one great video card (perhaps a GeForce GTX295) as opposed to two OK video cards.

As for HDs, make sure you're using a SATA 3gb/s HD @ 7200RPM. Of course you could always for solid state, but the overall capacity for those isn't very high yet an you'll be a lot more per GB than a standard HDD.

You should be able to use those gems on NewEgg if you fancy. But if you need any pointers, just PM me. Or list your price range and stats in the thread and I'll see what I can whip up

Thanks Obs. I'm looking to spend around $2K for a new rig and the ones I have been seeing from the normal (Dell, HP, Gateway, ect) places don't seem to offer much for that, but then again I am pretty clueless about tech stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Woohoo...finally ordered my new rig

Got the new Alienware Area 51 and it should be delivered by Thanksgiving. Looking so forward to getting back in game! See you all soon!
