Get it Crasx!!!

I was on in yesterday or the day before... they are all starting to blur together. Edit - it is working but I also see you in the CSGO Pub, so obviously you got it working.

Old song with no official video but I was listening to this album for at least the 100th time and remembered how much I loved the story. [utube]sClhmDN5Fcs[/utube]

Good luck, I mean congratulations... I mean run!!

They can help but that rig should have good cooling already, just keep it on a flat surface and you should be ok. Also hit those vents with some canned air/an air compressor every once in a while.

I have never set that feature up in GTA V so I am not 100% sure but I imagine you can as long as you point the settings to the correct folder for your music.

Sounds like a good time.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Turbo has jokes.....

Pretty sweet, enjoy Sky

I got sick of hackers and never being online when anyone else was... plus GTA V.

Should be fine, just make recovery media when you buy the new computer and you can load that on the SSD whenever you decide to get it.

San is right for once, without Bukkit many mods died. Though Tirtul has been kicking around some other options I believe.

No it does not affect the read/write; I have Windows, Steam and some of the games I play on my SSD. I put some of the other games that won't benefit as much from the speed on one of the other standard HDDs. The main downfall to SSDs at this point is that you want to avoid constantly writing over the same sector over and over because it will eventually kill the sector, though they are getting better at this with newer SSDs. We are also talking about many, many rewrites over the sector before it becomes an issue. So basically anything you plan on adding and removing on a regular basis would be better on a standard drive. Some manufacturers, like Samsung, recommend that you turn off restore point creation for this reason, since it will delete old restore points as space is needed for newer ones so it constantly rewrites over the same spots.. basically if you ever need to roll your Windows back to a previous point, you will not have one if that feature is turned off, if that's how you choose to setup your drive.

I just thought you would benefit down the road from both, I would still stick to your plan of the Asus, but maybe could add the SSD when you are ready in the extra bay. I have a SSD for my OS/games and 3 standard HDDs for my files and other stuffz.

I don't see how having different models really keeps the game alive for people, it's not like the game is a horror style game where creepy models and textures really offer to the play/atmosphere... We all know what attack is essentially coming at any moment and who has time to stare at pretty textures when things are jumping at your face or if you are trying to save a teammate?? I don't think that giving people the ability to have graphical mods is worth people getting an unfair advantage over others. Cool, the tank is now Donkey Kong but that hunter flying through the air is now leaving a gold trail making easier to be shot out of the air. I get that you want to put this on server #2 but there are people who are going to join server #2 not knowing that one of the two servers allow mods and may not have a good time getting stomped. It's not fair someone who is new to get destroyed because others have a beneficial mod to help them kill others. Unfortunately we can not only allow certain types of mods, its all or none, so it should remain as none. I have been around long enough to see even the first server have it's slow times before we got a second server, things go in waves with L4D it would appear. Server #2 will pick up again when people have more free time or when more people buy the game or when some people get less burned out, if the second server never picks up again then maybe it will go away allowing financial resources to be put towards another server that GC members can enjoy.

Samsung makes a fast and reliable SSD. Intel makes a solid SSD that should last longer than most but won't have as fast of read/write speeds as the others. Kingston and Crucial are also putting out some really solid SSDs as well. I would go with what ever may be in your budget/watch sales on Newegg and other sites but I would pick a Samsung 850 series, Evo or Pro.

I am pretty sure that Asus you are looking at has 2 hard drive bays, you can always add a SSD later if you want.

I've read it is related to DX11, people recommend rolling the driver back to the previous release but it will cause the game to run in DX10 so it's not as pretty. Unfortunately I did a clean install of the driver so the old one is gone and I am to lazy to go hunt it down so I will wait for the next release.

I keep getting random driver crashes, I do not seem to be alone since there are lots of forums posts going around for the same thing. Sometimes I can play for 3 hours with no issue, sometimes I crash 2 minutes in... Nvidia needs to fix the drivers for the new GTX 9xx series before I will play online. Good looking out though JC, I was debating on trying some of those trainers since I've only been playing story mode.

Never Runescaped, your words confuse and scare me. Good looking food though.

lulz, still Runescape-ing.

Yep still a classic... moments like that make me miss that game, then I remember that I get to play other games now.
