  1. Thanks guys, If guess I could get a 64 bit processor, but with an x1800xt do I really need crossfire? I mean the card seriously whoops butt already.

     

    I like the board I posted because it can hold up to 4gb's of ram. But I'm still pretty much stumped on the processor.

     

    If i get a 64 bit do i have to run 64 bit windows? I hear a lot of bad things about it.

  2. Every couple of years I switch brands, just to keep from being a fanboi. It's about that time again this year.

     

    Currently I have a P4 2.8ghz that I'm looking to swap out with something from AMD that's gonna be a little jumpier. I don't want a 64bit processor. I haven't really kept up on AMD news in the last couple of years.

     

     

     

    I want to put this in a micro atx board, anything other than a VIA chipset. I currently only use MSI board but most of the Micro ATX boards for AMD are using VIA chipsets.

     

    Anyone recommend a Processor and a Micro ATX board, that has Sata and PCI-E.

  3. I've got the hd580's had them replaced once, bad speaker coil. I've had them going on 3 years now so I'm very very happy and would definitely buy another pair in a heartbeat.

     

    If i had to take a stab I'd say J's are the HD500's.

  4. I decided to go with a pda over an Ipod for the following reasons.

     

    1. Falling prices of SD cards and flash memory.

    2. WiFi access

    3. It plays whatever movies media and what not I can throw at it, it's a VGA screen so it's waay better looking than the video ipod.

    4. It was a little cheaper than a video ipod

    5. I can use skype on it free VOIP

     

     

    I bought a dell axim X30i which I then sold and bought an X50v which I love. Video today looks sharp, sound even through the speakers sounds full and rich when I hook it to my sennheisers it sounds incredible.

     

    I've got a 1gig flash card for it and 2 1 gig SD chips. I haven't ran out of storage yet. I re-encode all my video using pocketdivxencoder which is super fast and can usually drop a movie down to about 70mb with minimal quality loss (because the screens alot smaller than a tv)

  5. I like that case on the table strange! I want that for my new computer case

     

     

    Thanks I'm thinking about gettign rid of it, if you look to the right of it you'll see the identical case but in black with green lights. That's the girlfriends.

     

    That pictures a little out-dated I replaced the middle pc with a media center edition in a fragbox saves some space and it's much quieter.

     

    I'm thinking about putting my main machine inside a fragbox now too. They're awesome.

  6. I did make a post in the admin thread about it. Shep posted the schedule for me so let's take a look at this thing and see if we can make some people happy.

  7. Just curious what people’s fav movies from 2005 were?  On the whole not a great year especially if you’re an action fan but my top 5 were...

     

    1) Batman Begins - Great cast, a dark Batman, exactly what Batman should be.

    2) Wedding Crashers - My fiancée dragged me to this, I thought it'd be a rental, wow was I wrong, funniest movie of 2005.

    3) Crash - great storyline and awesome cast.

    4) King Kong - I just thought it was a great popcorn movie, great visuals and good acting (except Jack Black who almost ruins it for me).

    5) Sin City - People either love it or hate it, I love Frank Miller and this movie captures his dark comic book style. 

     

    ...And most disappointing, for me...Star Wars Episode III :boo: .... I wanted more Vader and less Anakin.  I still can't believe Vader only really shows up in the last scene, so disappointing.  Trust me I wanted to like it, I really did but I just can't!

     

    Cheers,

    Klink

     

    I could agree with 90% of that list, I'd have to call The 40 year old virgin the funniest film of the year it's waaay more funny than Wedding Crashers... Other than that I'd say you're spot on.
