    C&C Generals

    I think there is a ini file in your profile folder (the one where your saved games are - usually in My Documents/C&C Generals). In there is the game speed = 30 or something like that. The game speed is directly proportional to the FPS. So beware if you set it to 60 you wil get double the game...

    Rip off UK prices

    Shipping costs are a bit much for me, you could consider yourself lucky to pay only $750 for a 7800GTX. Due to shipping and tax it costs about $1100 for one over here in South Africa.

    Hard drive disappeared!

    My drive also did that, I traced it to write caching being enabled when the pc lost power. This caused the filesystem to get screwed up. I could recover all the data using R-tools.

    How good is current on-board audio?

    Stick with the live. The onboard doesn't sound as good and it uses more CPU cycles.

    Having problems with the Mx1000

    Seems that the receiver bases model #C-BN34 are the culprits. For some people the problem goes away when using the PS/2 port but if you could get a newer version that will most likely fix it.

    Logitech MX1000 problem

    I have the same problem. Over on Logitech's site some people have experimented and Logitech has said that it is a problem with their driver and some USB controllers. They will correct it in the near future with a driver update. For now continue on PS/2

    Ti4200 + Zalman ZM80D-HP = compatible ?

    Yes it is. You get 2 blocks, one that fits the Ti4200's mounting holes and one that fits the other cards like my 9500pro.

    What's a good aquamark score?

    Below average, as I recall I get 30000 with a 9500pro on a similar machine as yours. You should probably get 50000? Correct me if I am wrong.

    Yup. I am one of those gamers. These cards are just too expensive for me. What a waste. He could have held a competition and given it away.
