Have the graphics on Apple's improved since then?

every car doesnt have a full catback, most "rice" cars as you call it are weld on mufflers. and the "cheap ebay stuff" is the same stuff as you buy only with a lower price tag, don't be so ignorant. I'm not saying its a big deal, then your car must be rice too cuz it has an sr right? way to try to pull a comeback like a 5 year old (and fail) just cuz I hurt your feelings about macs.

Like I said, a mac is good for you cuz it's only pretty and is good for graphical stuff.

Yeah I know, it was a joke. And BTW Quake and Mech Warrior were the shiz 10 years ago. Oregon Trailer was the shiz like 20 yrs ago

full catback almost everyone has a ebay full catback. so thats not saying much. godspeed coils are not the same as megans. ya megan started on ebay too, but if you look at there stuff when they first started. it was complete ****. companys need to do testing and diagnostics before they can produce a good product. and having an stock sr isnt rice, its just not that special.

we're still on the 5th grade name calling arent we?

godspeed and megan are the same, and how can any company do testing if most people (like you) are to big of p****** to test it? if your going to bash on something you better have support, and as far as the godspeeds, you dont, so stfu. and if haveing a stock sr isnt rice then why did YOU start all this by calling me rice?

funny, "heartofaskyline" is running an sr and not an rb. and i'm a ricer? dont even come at me for nismo, since nismo covers all of nissan motorsports, and once the car is done i plan on participating in said motorsports

cheap ebay parts are typically what ricers buy. why i called you a ricer. im not too big of a ***** to try ****, id just rather not throw away 600 bucks when i could buy new injectors with that. megan and godspeed are not the same. megan has been around much longer than godspeed has. they have made changes since they started. so i guess if you want to be the guinea pig for godspeed, well its your money...

now your attacking my user name. if you look ive been around a while, and when i made my account, i had an rb20 hatch. hints the account name

i guess i should tell the mods to change my name to heart of a silvia

This is my home theater PC and main PC. Hooked up to a HD projector. Not for gaming, just for movies, photos, photo editing, videos, video editing and internet. It has worked ok so far. No complaints about Vista so far other than i accidentally (my fault) corrupted some of Media Centers files and the only way to fix them is to re-install Vista. SUCK!

Built it about 3 months ago for $850 with tax and shipping (on a tight budget).

You might get some better performance out of that beast if you upgrade the PS.

Really? I didn't know that the power supply could have that kind of effect. Will it alone make a difference or would it allow me overclock it? How much bigger should I go? I figgured what I built was not high performance enough to justify a higher wattage power supply. I'm always eager to hear constructive criticism about things I build.

Technically you are right, but OC'ing does wonders...

can we get some pics of more computer pron?

pflicht wrote:Technically you are right, but OC'ing does wonders...

Yeah, you can overclock that high, but it seems if the ram is registered as 1066 and you don't have a 1066 processor the bios freaks out.

I've seen systems that'll still post fine, but get weird controller errors. Then other's that don't post at all. All were fixed by putting the correct ram speed in.

It's weird. This amd proc conflict is pretty much the only one like it that I've ever seen. Every other system would just automatically clock the memory down to something that it's compatable with. But not amd, it has to throw a fit.

AMD has to make a statement! Can't hold AMD back!

big *** 5.25 floppy .. those were the days.

i remember when the 1gig Hdd's came out OMG that was the ****

I has new goodies.. so I will resurrect this thread and give more Geeky pronz....

My new desk with my new 20" Soyo Monitor I bought yesterday.



On the far right at the top is my Acer Aspire One It has a 8.9" 1024x600 CrystalBrite LCD, Intel Atom 1.6GHz Processor, 80GB HDD, Card Reader, Webcam, WiFi.. It's awesome.

Left of that on top is my HP Pavilion DV2840se Laptop. AMD Turion 64 x2 2.0GHz 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD, DVD+-R/RW, Webcam, b/g/n wireless..

Bottom, Ancient Presario R3000.. Intel Celeron junk processor, s***ty 512MB RAM, 30GB HDD.. Slow, Big, Heavy, Awkward.. But It is a widescreen and I have a media cable for it so I use it to hook up to the TV's in the other rooms to watch movies.

Then the Desktop..I just built it.. Asus P5Q Mobo with an Intel Core2Duo E7400 2.80GHz, 4GB RAM, 80GB HDD(For some reason when the last MoBo crashed it took my other 3 HDD's with it, I had a 250GB, 80GB, and 120GB.. I was pissed) Next purchase is a TB HDD though.. The monitors are 20" Soyo and a 17" HP.. I like this setup for now..

Just painted my xps 410. right now its only has core 2 duo 2.13ghz oc'd to 2.5ghz and 1gb ram,about to order 2gb more tomorrow,8500gt(soon to be gtx 280) 250gb hdd



my laptop-XPS M1730,pretty basic but nice none the less

total was about ~1500. it was a dumb mistake but we learn from it. i really didnt need all that stuff. It came out so much because i bought things bit by bit.

I wish i was good at wiring... this might be foreshadowing what i wont be able to do when i grow up to work on cars...or it could show me that i could start working on smaller things first...hmm

Just got a new 'Puter!!Socket AM3 M4A79T Deluxe with 720 Black Edition. Hopefully this choice will allow me to upgrade whenever AMD comes out with their higher-tier AM3 offerings.

500gig SATA2 Caviar

6G 10333 DDR3

Sapphire 4870 OC'ed to 800Mhz (Memory clock stays at 900mhz...because apparently you get screen flickering with anything higher, and it's true)

Antec black whatever case with 3 adjustable case fans which I got for cheap because there was a small dent in a side panel

Windows home premium 64-bit

Vast improvement over my 3 year old Athlon 64 machine. Mutli-core processors are yum.

Oh, got everything including OS for 950 or something close. I'm happy. Plays Fallout 3 with texture extensions at max very well and hopefully anything i throw at it in the next 2-3 years.
