- Sep 27, 2009 4:30 pm PTLet me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!
Rocky BalboaOk so I've had an XPS 630i for little less than a year. It works, fine. I use it for games and the internet. But I'm just a little concerned. It seems a little louder than it was the first day i got it and first couple months etc. Its not very loud, almost like a 360, maybe a slight bit quiter than that, anything to be concerned about? or do all pc's get a little louder when they start to age just as consoles do? thanks for the help.

My 4870 is really loud as well. Whenever I play games, you're right.. sounds almost as bad as an xbox. It's a shame because the rest of my system fans are super quiet
