PhantasmaGirl = Trinity

I'll be back online on Wednesday afternoon, maybe even playing that night, if I can figure out how to join a game these days.

Bad retelling of a repost.

Playing an anarchy game with BigFlopyDonkeyDick where we called ourselves Left Nut and Right Nut. Two tanks in a small level, don't recall the name of it, just slaghtering everyone else. I racked up 50 kills in just under 7 minutes. Too much fun.

Woodchip, they have flying lawnmowers, I hardly think a Pyro would be any more difficult to get airborne than that.

For F*CK sake, can somebody please answer my question and everyone else stop highjacking this thread already?

Nexus_One

OK, I need to know right now, will D3 run on Windows XP x64 edition? If not I will need to put in a separate partition for windows 98 Plus on one of my hard drives. I'll already be using 2 separate OS's for my rig, both Windows XP x64, but one will be about 40GB for Office and other programs like it...

Nexus_One

The machine is officially built. I'm having the wiring and the OS done by a local shop, I didn't want to mess with all the cabling. I should have it back by next Monday. Woohoo!!

Nexus_One

OK, so the BenQ 1640 was out of stock when I ordered it, but Zipzoomfly didn't bother to tell me that until a week later when all my parts had arrived except for that one. I've now ordered the Plextor 716SA DVD-RW to replace it, with a black bezel to match the rest of my machine. My X-Fi should also...

Keep us posted on how Windows XP64 Edition 1 turns out The "edition 1" from mikrosoft scared me :wink: I'll let you know, I'm getting Service Pack 2 installed with it, so hopefully it will work pretty well. As far as games go, I think the new rig will do all right, frame rates should be f...

Nexus_One

I've seen ads for that P/S before, but didn't want to buy one for my rig because I hadn't seen any reviews of it anywhere. Sounds interesting in theory, but how well will it work?

Nexus_One

What ever happened to that one smiley someone found or made a few years back. The smiley was yelling and jumping up and down waving his arms. Anyone have it or seen it?

Nexus_One

Man just looking at all the screenshots gets me nostalgic. I'm getting all choked up over here. Now I really can't wait to get my rig up and running!!!

Nexus_One

Looks like a solid machine to me, but what do I know?

Nexus_One

Update time... Almost have it finished, just waiting on the BenQ 1640 DVD-RW and the X-Fi card to arrive, hopefully next week. Having never built a computer before, I've got to say that it was kind of a b!tch at first. My only saving grace was the fact that the Armor case was so easy to use, and ver...

No, but wouldn't that be funny...And here I thought Suncho didn't have a sense of humor.

Some newb once cried for someone on the DBB to make them an avatar. I liked it and kept it for myself.

I'm a chef, what do yo need to know?

Nexus_One

I was the chef, now I'm going to be the lawyer.

Ferno, only Nirvsheep can call me Sexux None.

Money, Thorne was always my b!tch.

I'll try those out once all my parts arrive. Got my monitor and keyboard today. Woohoo!!

Nexus_One

OK, so my new rig will be here soon, and now I need to figure out how to get D3 up and running again. I have the D3 discs someplace, and hopoefully I still the the Mercs expansion. If I recall correctly Mercs is only 1.3. Where can I find 1.4 these days? How about new multiplayer levels? I'm gonna n...

So many flames in one post. Wow. Mr. Perfect, you got only about half the prices right, you should do more homework, I know I did. Shipping, btw, was less than $30 for the whole damn thing. Krom, I really didn't want another huge and heavy CRT to lug around, my last one was a 22", and it was ju...

i'd like sata interface for all my drives, otherwise that would be fine with me

Nexus_One

OK, so now that we are almost completely off subject, how about a few more quick things... I've scaled back a little bit just to save headache in building. No more Raptor drive, just the 2 DiamondMax hard drives, and no RAID. I'll still probably use a 550 watt PS just to be safe. Viewsonic 191b LCD ...

Nexus_One

Other options for DVDRW's? I've read a lot of reviews that say that the 716's are the best to get.

As for the back up drives, what would you suggest then if not 600gb on RAID0? I won't be ordering until Wednesday afternoon...

Nexus_One

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I also bought a Microsoft Precision Pro so I can play some D3 again.

Now if I can only figure out how to join games again...

Nexus_One

OK, so I have finally gotten my list down pat. Here it is. Athlon X2 4800+ 2.4Ghz Dual Core Asus A8N SLI Deluxe 2 1GB sticks of DDR400 RAM 600 watt power supply 2 Plextor PX-716SA DVD-RW 74GB Raptor 2 Maxtor Diamond Max 10 300GB Hard Drives in RAID 0 2 XFX GeForce 7800 GTX Creative X-Fi Thermaltake ...

Nexus_One

I had considered using a pair of 74GB Raptors for the OS, and at least 250GB for a back up drive.

I want to have both a DVDRW and a CDRW/DVD-ROM so that I can burn DVDs without having to use the hard drive, a more direct approach to it.

Nexus_One

I'm going to be purchasing a new gaming rig in the next month or so, and I'm trying to decide if I should buy one from a small vendor like Alienware or Polywell, or if I should attempt to build one. Please keep in mind that I have never built a PC from the ground up before, but I can learn very quic...

Nexus_One

I've actually been doing a lot of research on this lately, and I've found that Polywell has a pretty damn good price for high end systems. Falcon is overpriced, as is VooDoo. Alienware is cheaper than either one of those companies, and has a reputation among pc magazines as being better. Monarch rec...

Is this game dead in the water? I haven't seen anything from the High Octane boys in weeks, not even an update on their website.

Is it finally time to become a ground pounder?
