Is that what this game will only be about? Cause that will get old fast. I hope it will have some more gameplay than just flying around in ships shooting.

Cities XL>>>>> Sim City

Oh your HDD failed. Please tell me more about how the company is bad, and the only one with breaking parts.

Never had any problems with Wester Digital when I had them in my old pcs for years..... then I switch to Seagate and 1 of their drives die in 2 years and then the warrenty one dies in 1 year?

Also the Western Digital seems alot faster too.

my 2nd Seagate in 3 years died yesterday. Was replaced under warrenty after 2 years and the warrentied one lasted a year. Bought a Western Digital black andf it's alot better.

I've always used their motherboards and love them because they last so long......I've just never used their cards. They claim their cards deliver more performance and are cooler than the competition but I'd like some opinions on here first.

If only AMD could put in this much effort into their cpus..... Intel is dominating them in that department.

I've had to restart steam every day this week for a client update. What gives?

unless you want to spend 500.00 on a brand new gpu then go ahead. i never spend more than 250 on 1 and i replace them every 3 years. the software will never be caught up with the hardware especially with consoles lasting 8 years.

At work on break today I was looking at ncix on my phone. I was just browsing cpus and I didn't realize how much cheaper AMD is compared to Intel. I knew they were cheaper, but $100 is pretty shocking.

To my knowledge AM3+ processors are compatible with AM2 boards.

I was going to do a full upgrade, but I don't mind waiting a bit longer and watching the new tech.

However I could put out $120 for a new cpu if it's a good upgrade.

What kind of boost would I see only changing the cpu...

AMD X2 6000+ 3.0ghz to a...

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Quad Core Processor AM3 3.4GHZ

or

AMD Bulldozer FX-4100 Quad Core Processor 3.6GHZ Socket AM3+

yup. i wish amd just kept making phenoms. instead they brought out a new line of cpus that are the same performance as the phenoms, they just use less power, and nobody needs an 8 core cpu especially for games. i hope games will never need an 8 core to run, just make them more gpu depenant. i just wish amd would make something that can compete with intel. i got an i5 after hearing the fx series are the same as the phenom just a new name. i have a bad feeling amd will not be making desktop cpus anymore soon.
