    Eve worth it?

    Eve is a "Hate it or love it" kinda game, as you can see from the comment above. It is not made for everyone, and currently has a subscriber base of ~250k players (or acounts, not sure). As suggested, try the 14 day trial and give it a shot. I've been playing it for over a year now but...

    Questions & help - Eve online

    The best thing you can do is join a player corp. Corps play together and help each other. If you're interested in the industrial side (mining, mfg, R&D, trade, PvE) aka "carebearing" then contact me in game (Stefx)

    Eve Online

    Control multiple characters is easier if you have multiple monitors and run one in windowed mode in each of them. The industrial side, boring? Depends for whom. Eve is great as it has something for various types of people. Lots of pvp for those who want it... alliance politics and territory...

    Underclocking a video card?

    Agreed. The card was fine with those temps and did not need an aftermarket cooler, which on top of things creates problems for potential RMAs.

    Should I replace the Tuniq Tower fan?

    The stock fan is very good and the Tunic comes with a variable speed knob, so you can adjust your fan speed to balance noise/cooling. No need to change it. If you change it to get a few extra degrees, then perhaps it would have been more cost efficient to go with the thermalright Ultra 120.

    Outer Space MMORPG

    I love Eve and I haven't played anything else much since I joined in Feb'07, but I recognize it's not for everyone. The learning curve is steep, the first few weeks/months are difficult and spent to figure out personal goals as your understanding of the game improves. Eve keeps me interested...
