Another hand.


My computer is reasonably new anyway, so I should be fine running it smoothly. Shame about my ping going sky high after 7pm due to bandwidth restrictions at uni, will have to play it online earlier in the day.

I've just upgraded some stuff too.

From a athlon 64 X2 3800+ (2GHz) to a Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.6GHz

From 1gb of Corsair XMS DDR400 RAM to 2gb of OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400

New motherboard is a EVGA nForce 680i SLI

Can't afford to upgrade my graphics card, but it seems i'm getting more out of my old 7800gt since the upgrade, i get higher and more stable fps now.

Been playing the Crysis beta and no problems on low settings, haven't tried higher yet.

I cannot currently afford to upgrade.

So, every week I will be doing a lottery. All your names will be placed in a hat. If your name is drawn, I will be round your house to collect a single piece of hardware :)

Oh really? :roll:

I suppose being in London, I would be easiest to collect off, but you'd have to go past multiple drunken students to reach my room, so that'd put you off nicely :)

Students? I'll just bring 1 bottle of Vodka and some Schnapps and bribe people with shots to join my army. Then I sit back and watch the siege taking place on your dorm :)

And Nightmare, I already watch you while you sleep, I need no luck in finding you ;)

(And yes, the offer of free hardware for a blowjob was so tempting I was putting on my coat as I typed... ;))
