    X58 Sabertooth - Keep or Upgrade

    I had a i7 920 @ 3.5Ghz and upgraded to Xeon X5650 @ 4.2Ghz. My cinebench R15 score went from 510 to 981. Thats equivalent to a 4770K score. Not bad for $70 upgrade. save your $$ and upgrade gfx card or to SSD.

    Enjoying my FW900 since 2005, playing COD2 rifles and other FPS games. Bought it for whopping $150 locally. Calibrated it and has been solid ever since. Couple months ago bought for one of those LPS LCD by Samsung from Korea for $300. really like it for web and apps with its 1440P...

    Torchlight 2, My Impressions... (updated: 5/10/12 with Final Impressions)

    I bet they will still make it "Summer 2012" release. which means by 9/28/12 Gamespot and other online retailers have Q3 2012 for release date which supports end of Sept date.. too bad, because I've dam bored with gaming lately besides playing the LT2 beta

    some German game websites are proclaiming Aug 28th 2012 release date for TL2 guess thats technically summer, was hoping for end of June or at least July release but I guess they need to polish the game up still

    Splitsies for Torchlight 2?

    I did a group buy here at AT with others. Why not request for the paypal funds to be gifted to you? (the sender pays the paypal fees instead of the receiver)

    TorchLight 2 / World Of Tanks Clan recruitment

    We participated in Clan Wars for a bit, but didnt work out for us. Some members were serious while others didnt want to dedicate the 3-4hrs a night for training and special battles. Didnt help that our CW lead was an odd ball who didnt care too much about winning. Trust me, taking tier 5-6...

    Torchlight 2, My Impressions... (updated: 5/10/12 with Final Impressions)

    I tried out playing Outlander. mixed feeling about it. The guns werent that powerful, I think this is suppose to the the ranger character which I typically stay away from. Maybe I will try out the engineer since I have some time still. If anyone is interested in joining a TL2 clan, please PM me.

    Torchlight 2, My Impressions... (updated: 5/10/12 with Final Impressions)

    I agree that the closed beta weekend ends on Tuesday 5/22, I was hoping it was going to be till midnight to allow couple more hours of game play after work. Oh well, on the flip side this could mean a very successful beta test without many hiccups and the final release coming sooner then later.
