Ok well I might consider another case, though I like the acrylic because it's so simple. And I reckon I'll go with the Powercooler card then, thanks for pointing that out :)

Again, I'll say that the post of the thread is not to find a cheaper site, but for me to figure out which part I should get a better one of as I have an extra $100. I appreciate the links anyway I'll check them out.

What would the advantage/disadvantage be of getting the PowerColor? What's the difference between the two? I mean is it worth gettin the PowerColor over the HIS Hightech? Also a friend reccomended CoolerMaster over Corsair so I guess that's what I'm going with. As for the mobo, I wish I...

Yes I've taken a look, but I think I'll go with PCCase gear. The MSY site looks a bit dodgy, and while I know lots of people buy parts from there, I also know that they don't exchange faulty products.

Hey I've been taking a look at some parts for a new computer, do you reckon this is an OK list? I have about 100 more left to spend (not counting fans and yada yada) so is there anything I could/should upgrade here or just go with what I have? (It's all from the same site) CASE Acrylic...

Thanks for the reccomandation guys, I'll definitely take a look at MSY :D

Hi guys, I've made a list of parts I'm going to order from www.pccasegear.com and I'm not sure i) if they're compatible and ii)if I've picked the right items for the price I'm working within (2000). I mean do I have all the fan cables etc. I'll need to put it all together? I would really...

I see that I've got a lot of choice ahead of me. I've decided not to buy a computer until Xmas or whenever the processor quits on me. I'll consider all the parts that people have mentioned and consider a list of parts to get. Thanks everyone for helping out :)

I'll definitely consider the Radeon now, only I've never had anything besides an nVidia gforce. Also, how can the 8800 be better than the 9600? 8800 is what I have now.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I appreciate it. Don't worry about WHERE to buy them, I'll figure that out. I'd definitely like the 9600, it's probably the one I'll go with. I'll also need to buy a new main hard drive.

Not counting screen and other accessories - but including speakers - I'm looking to buy a computer between $1000 to $1500AUD. I'd like it for gaming and it needs a good processor since I tend to run a lot of large files such as Photoshop, multiple media players and multimedia editors at the...

You have no idea how much fun that was to read :D I never really considered having only one business working on a "super computer" but I see how it relates to the topic. There wouldn't be as efficient progress without nVidia and AMD competing. Thanks for all of that is was quite exciting to...

I tried that but when I press ok and try opening the game I receive the same error. I'll just reformat one of these days, except I have a lot of games that I lost the CDs for. I'll probably get another hardrive, I think there are some old installation files lurking around confusing it. Maybe...

I was going to suggest EB Games. Sell on eBay? You could sell it to people in your area with pick-up only. Not sure what else to suggest except ads in the newspaper. If you live in a large city that may actually work, but as far as I'm concerned if I wnated a second hand PC game I'd look on eBay...

Wow where to start. ---Bioshock - if your laptop can run it. Best campaign ever :D ---Thief: Deadly Shadows - if your graphics card has shaders (or it can bear Vista haha) then it'll run ---Try Steam Games in offline mode. Load them onto your PC and then play in offline mode. Half Life...

I guess it was obvious to me but I'm a PC gamer. You didn't actually specify a PC and those terms are used for consoles these days as well. Oh well :o

Halo 2 for Vista is one, but I wouldn't "suggest" or "reccomend" it. Extremely buggy and tempermental. For PC co-op I suggest Doom 2 (great classic), Unreal Tournament 2007 (co-op over lan or internet) and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. Have fun :D

I've tried running as Administrator and everything. Double Agent only works on Windows XP only. As for Chaos Theory (which is the one I'm really keen to play) I think it may be problems with the installation because it doesn't work even when I run it as an admin. I'll just reinstall it or else...

Might be worth getting a largish printer if you're starting a buisiness. My school has one, about a metre wide and metre high. It prints quickly enough and doesn't seem to have more trouble than multiple computers trying to print too many files and it gets a tad confused. There would be a newer...

Oh right right of course, internal mouse. It finally clicked XD sorry about that. Though if you took the laptop apart, you could try another PC... it would be messy :D Maybe the mouse somehow did get disabled through some silly setting, removing the power completely and restarting like that...
