Ghozer you're mistaking Overclockers.co.uk (I presume) the store with Overclockers.com - the latter is a community of hardware nuts and don't sell anything. Their forums are excellent sources of info, and I used to go there a lot back when I had a nifty watercooling rig

Could be...... could be...

At least try and act friendly.

You just wanna act all RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOy and treat us like crap, why can't you GOOGLE? It's what it's for, most your Questions could've been answered if you just read reviews and see the specs on everything!

NO! Don't you have any sense of decency? Don't send him/her/it over to OcUK! I don't think I could handle the same crap in two different places!

Can't an administrator just ban you or something for severe annoyance and rudeness or something?

Josh...he has admitted to having more then one person use his account....thought that was a ban-able offense.

Res Surection · Mar 22, 2006, 12:36 AM // 00:36

hi Dood

did you ever play pong when it first came out (it was amazing at the time)?

also more to the point did you ever play the first version of whack a mole?

i might even in desperation put up a link to *im a cow* and see who has sore ribs from laughing

Old Dood · Mar 22, 2006, 11:22 AM // 11:22

Loviatar...Good morning...

Yes I did play PONG. At the Bar actually. I wish I had all those Quarters back.

I was Awesome at it in those days. You had to catch the "ball" with the corner of your paddle to get a wicked spin on the return shot.

Those were the days...

Yeah but the thing is all the split-sides of his personality are severly annoying and questioning. ;\

This is very true and for GW won't be an issue. If your in to First Person Shooter you want as high as you can get. Not an issue with the human eye but accuracty of where all the other people trying to shoot you are when you aim.

what do u mean by that?

Xenrath · Mar 22, 2006, 08:40 PM // 20:40

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. He's talking about games like Quake etc. where hardcore/competition players may find it advantageous having ultra high framerates - nothing to do with your eyes, but more to do with game mechanics/times/reactions.

And now to confuse you by posting a picture of an old watercooled rig of mine

If you look closely you can see blue tubes, which actually contain water! And there's a radiator on top. Yes indeedy, it is a car. It even has a weird mouse which is turned inside out and upside down, like some kind of alien mouse. Now up to you to figure out how it works

Res Surection · Mar 22, 2006, 08:47 PM // 20:47

i wanna play quake and unreal tournament 2006 ect tho

as an extreme example.

player a has 250 frames per second meaning if you both come face to face player a has (everything else equal) a maximum delay of 1/259 of a second before he sees you

player b has a frame rate of 1 frame per second.

if player b has just had a frame drawn just before player a comes into view player b might have almost a full second to wait before player a is seen in the next frame.

in that second player a has seen you, killed you, and run off

will a x1600 be enough? to run those 1st man shoot em up games properly?

I <3 my Alienware Area51 7700m. Heck I'm typing on it right now at work.

I guess it must be like when BMW drivers <3 their BMWs.

Bottom line, it's your own choice what you buy, and it's up to the discretion of other what they buy for themselves.
