I'm predicting a 9.5. The first game was amazing but sadly it only took me 3 hours to complete. Hope this one is a decent length.

What's your % of playtime between systems?

I'd say it's pretty even.

Are you more drawn to games that feature plenty of modded content, or a fan of straight vanilla games?

For the most part I stick to vanilla games. Some games I mod heavily though, like Oblivion for example.

How often do you upgrade your hardware?

Used my previous pc for about 6 years.

Have you had any formal schooling, whether HS or Uni, in computer science of any kind?

No.

Is your rig pre-built, custom built, or both?

Custom built.

Have you owned, or would you ever purchase a Mac for gaming?

No.

Halo CE was my first multiplayer game. My friend hosted LAN parties every couple of weeks. First game I played online was Halo 3.

Not a huge score but still pretty good I think.

I have Crysis and Crysis: Warhead on Steam but haven't gotten around to playing them yet. Might pick this up in a Steam sale.

[QUOTE="ShyGuy0504"]

I just installed a second 5850 over the weekend. It's been working great so far. They should last me for a while.

Any problems with CF? I plan on going this way eventually.

I've only encountered one problem so far and that is that the demo for the remake of sonic 2 runs worse when I have cf enabled. But that's a fan project so I understand why it has issues with cf. My cards also idle low at about 36-38 degrees. Under heavy load the top card runs at about 72 and the bottom around 62. My system also doesn't seem to be any louder. I have 2 non-reference 5850s.
