Biography:
Hey. So I live in northern Virginia, lifeguard in the summer, swim 10 times a week and still time find to overclock and listen to the podcast. I love pizza, and if you run out in the open in COD4, expect to have your head blown off with the R700 half a second later.

If they can find a way for us to play MGS4, Killzone 2, Resistance, and SOCOM, this would be great, but until then, I don't really think its worth it. Probably will end up like the PPU.

I tested to see what the possible ways were to blow up computers. (using salvaged parts of course, wouldnt even think of trying to do that with my 4850 and penryn.)
AMD's Fusion for Gaming Beta Now Available
Posted 09/20/2008 at 08:40:21am
well I wish it would work with XP, but as far as I know, it should work with intel procs because usually AMD and intel have good relations. Just don't throw Nvidia into the mix.
Rumor: Intel's Core i7 to Launch with 2.66GHZ, 2.93GHz, and 3.2GHz Parts

Well yeah, but you might want to consider waiting for the next rev of chips. i mean look at the Q6600, the first revs of it ran hot and didnt OC as well. But with the G0 version, they are the best budget chip out there. So IMHO, it would be better to wait for Intel to get the kinks out of the chips before buying one. But who knows, I could be wrong and they ship with great quality and lots of OC headroom.

Rumor: Windows 7 Beta 1 in December
Posted 09/15/2008 at 08:10:53pm
umm, lets do this one good boys. (not saying Vista was bad, it just didn't live up to the hype). good 64 bit support out of the box without updates would be nice (but I guess thats up to the hardware makers)
Infinity Ward-Helmed Call of Duty 6 on Track for 2009 Release
Posted 09/15/2008 at 08:07:11pm
I think they did a great job with 4 and im having trouble coming up with things that they could do better. Longer campaign maybe? and we'll see how the CO-OP works in COD: WAW. I'd just say keep up the great work, and I don't mind if its a port as long as its a good quality port.
