It's back! after a months break of no Bundle, we've got the Frozen Synapse Bundle, and YES! like all the bundles, pay what you want! except if you pay above the cheap average of $5, you get the next 5 games below, don't be a bastard, you are donating to charity? donate 0.01? cigarette, you are charging the INDIE developers, charities and the company, time remaining: 14 days If you bought these games separately, it would cost around $76 but we're letting you set the price! As a plus you can activate these on steam AND! Compatible with Mac, Linux and Windows! Frozen Synapse is a low spec game for netbooks so it's a good game for on the move.

Off Topic / AMD "World Record" PCs on sale at iBuypower
« on: September 23, 2011, 06:33:05 AM »
That's right folks, iBuyPower teaming up with AMD to give you a Bulldozer Zambezi FX TOp of the League 8 Core PC Overclocked to 8GHZ on air, done by professinials, ON AIR COOLING, with the brand new fresh bulldozers.

http://legitreviews.com/news/11492/

This beats nearly every other clock record and it's avaible to you! Stable 8GHZ, just 500MHZ from the hefiest overclock on the planet, prices & specs will be annouced.

NOTE for non-IBP overclocking:
Bulldozer should be able to top out Intel i7 2600k's overclocking ability - 5.6GHZ on AIR, that's right, cheaper overclocking for professinials.



Still, we have the i7 2700k coming out before Q4 2011 and that has a turbo freq of 3.9GHZ, 8MB L3 Cache, now we're talking, Sandy Bridge E is topping off and the X79 will be here shortly

Off Topic / Need a good card for £175
« on: September 21, 2011, 02:12:36 PM »
I've been considering the Radeon 4850 x2 for Battlefield 3, it's on par with a 6950 for alot cheaper, £150.

I was also thinking the GTX 560 Ti, The radeon 4850 is DX10 though, it'd score more frames but have less detail.
Is there any better?

At current my GT 430 is the equal performance of a 1900X Radeon HD,
I prefer NVidia cards but i also will take Radeon.

Note: VAT kicks in too. PSU requirements i can buy if not above 800W
A good PC is good too, the 20% VAT is okay in the UK, doesnt count

Off Topic / Compare your Processor.
« on: September 18, 2011, 01:17:09 PM »
RULES:

1. Hyperthreading isn't loving cores. 4 cores + 4058783734746 threads from hyperthreading doesnt mean you have more than 4 cores.

2. Server Cores allowed.

3. Based off Core Amount & Clock Rate, that means your quad at 1.60ghz = a single core at 4.80GHZ.

4. Age also counts, your 8GHZ Core 2 Quad doesn't compare to my 2GHZ 8 core Bulldozer (like thats ever gonna come out).

5. Mobile Cores you suck.

Current:
1. Blaman - Phenom II x4 955 @ 3.8GHZ - 4 cores
2. Tails - i7 920 @ 3.20ghz - 4 cores
3. Eightfold - i5 2500 @ Stock (3.30GHZ) with 4 cores.

OpenTTD is a Open Source Verison of Transport Tycoon Deluxe - you can get it on the internet, you can use the old TTD files or you can download the Open_FX pack
Is anybody hosting? I really want a server!
