Too true. But I love my RTS games, and FPS games were just made for mouse control.

MAN I'd totally forgotten about computer fairs 34.gif Seriously, forgot they even existed, and I built my first 3 computers (at least) from buying bits at computer fairs. Nice one for the reminder (I gotta stop drinking so much 34.gif my memory is shot to fuck).

If that is an xbox, shame on you....

Ima Quad AMD user with 4GB 800Mhz Ram and XFX GTX 260, running dual 22" HP Monitors and an LG 32" with a Mac 2.66 Xeon Quad workstation.

An above average quad core workstation. Not the best, but I kill 15 year olds online all day smile.gif

Best bet is to buy it piece by piece. That's what I've been doing my latest rig has taken my ages to buy cause I'm on the dole, but I've sacrificed to get it. I haven't had a sniff of weed or taste of beer in a month. Which is sadly become a more regular than smoking, but not being able to get descent weed or a straight deal does help alot, but boy I'd love a spliff only 9 days until I have money lol.gif.


Yeah I've had a projector for years now use it to watch movies and play 360, not that I use my 360 that much. as PC games are more my style. My main rig is a DDR3 3.6 quadcore with 9800 gtx pro oc 2, 4 gigs of 1600mhz ram.

There is something great about blagging a movie off the net and watching it in my home cinema that doesn't get boring. I got a creative zen W to go with my projector as it plays most computer files and has avi out so works as a modern style dvd player.

RTS games are my personal choice; I'm a Chris Taylor fan, so I started with Total Annihilation and a powerful PC to keep up with the thousands of units needed for TA v3. These days I've gotta have a seriously powerful rig for Supreme Commander/Forged Alliance. Since I haven't the mobility I used to, I've gone all computer megalomanic:

Antec 1200 case
i7 920 CPU
6GB 1600mhz RAM
Radeon 4870 GX2
Creative X-Fi soundcard through proper 5.1 Hi-Fi separates system
Projector
120 inch screen

got me a 52" lcd, hooked it up. found out i play ALOT worse on it than i do with my old shoddy bedroom tv. switched back to old tv. happy once again being top of the food chain
