I am practical, dislike things made of plastic, and drove a truck in a previous job.

I had a picture of a girl as my wallpaper 5 seconds ago.

:eek: Nope but my dad was.

Post yours and I'll give you my valuable professional opinion. This is mine. What does it say about me?

Wasn't expecting much but the trailer video kind of blew me away... this game looks fantastic. Signing up for beta now. edit: does this game support SLI?

If you max everything the graphics are stunning. Better than Crysis 3 IMO. The story was horrendousssssss. It was so unbelievably bad! This game could have been a classic with a good story and good characters.

Yes! I felt the same.

I am reading on various sites that you need to manually make changes in nVidia inspector to get Far Cry 3 working with an SLI setup. But all the sites are dated December 2012. I was just wondering if these tweaks were still needed or did nVidia fix the issue with updated drivers?

Does the default in-game AA use MSAA? I thought it used FXAA, but I'll give it a try. I can't stand tearing so adaptive vsync is not really an option. I'd rather have 30fps than tearing @ 50fps. The 3930k is 6 cores right? Would SC2 use the additional cores? I've busted my budget on my...

I turned off vsync and reduced the graphics options described as "CPU dependent" on the tooltips (physics, reflections, etc..) and I'm still getting like 45fps. It's not unplayable, and I don't think I'll ever have 400 units on screen like that in multiplayer, but I just thought that for $950...

If my goal is vsync'ed 60fps 100% of the time @ 1080p in Starcraft 2 HOTS, what hardware do I need? I'm running 680 SLI but even they can't achieve that. For example in the 3rd (or 4th?) mission where you have 400 zerglings/banelings in the water, it drops to 30fps! My CPU is a 3570 @ 4.4Ghz...

Salvaged from the old rig: Force3 120GB SSD tech station & 2 fans Building a new rig for gaming on a 1080p plasma screen. Goal is to play all games maxed out (with msaa/sgssaa when supported) for the next 3+ years. Budget is ASAP (as small as possible). This system will be used only for...

Any reason for the 21.5" size monitor instead of a 24"? That would improve your gaming experience the most in my opinion.

Rvenger thanks for the very generous offer but I'd feel bad taking it as I'm old enough to have a job. I'm going to try to convince my dad to let me use his shop tools to build something.

Knew I shouldn't have posted this in the Cases forum :) But no worries I found my solution: http://www.g-news.ch/articles/nhp200nc/
