trusty machine dies

Recommended Posts

Guys a sad day my dell p4 3.2ghz machine died after six years 4gb meg and a geforce9600 ran OFF quite nice..... So I have to get a new computer (wife thinks I can buy a Best buy special for499) I work two jobs , put two kids through school..so I went right to the Alienware site..Who would think that a grown man would spend that kind of money so he could fly the skies over flanders....So here is what I got and I just wanted to know what I can expect from OFF as far as performance...I know to expect grief from my wife..I 7 Quad core 8mb 3.36 overclocked......1.5 mg geforce gtx480( didnt know if I should have went with the ATI) 12 gb ddr1333mhz 3x4 tri channel memory.. The alienware reviews seemed positive.. Thanks for your input

Oh yeah, that should run OFF, and BHaH, and HiTR, and P4, and P5, and any other acronyms the devs may come up with. Wowzers.

You deserve a new computer....tell your wife to go.......buy herself a new hat.

 

That's a very nice hardware array you have there and should run anything your throw at it quite nicely.

 

Well done.

 

Cheers,

You wanna really make her mad? You should get that Obutto Gaming Cockpit (http://combatace.com/topic/59958-obutto-gaming-cockpit/page__pid__454958?do=findComment&comment=454958) while you're at it. Someday I'll get it myself. The wife can't really say anything against it, I specifically told her I would buy it the day I proposed.

 

It was a romantic proposal indeed.
