    recommend any good FREE mmorpg

    Personally, I would say Anarachy Online would be your best bet at the moment. Also, don't believe everything you read, just because Guild Wars says it is an MMORPG on the box doesn't mean it is.....

    Opinions on Sennheiser PC130 for gaming

    I just recently ordered a pair of PC-130s, and after a couple days with them I would recommend them. However, my only experience with headsets are from a couple different logitech ones. They do sound better than the logitechs that I have owned though. The mic also works better (from what...

    I was wrong, WoW IS better then EQ2

    I made it to lvl 25 doing my armor quests and other random quests, and not once have I sat down to grind out levels. Also did most of my armor quests solo or duo. So, it is really not that difficult to level in EQ2 at this point. But I will agree EQ2 and WoW are two totally different games...

    Everquest 2, any enjoying it?

    Well, well, well, where to begin... My friends and I have been playing EQ2 since release ( yeah I know about 2 weeks) and it's hard to pull any of us off the game to do anything else. Two of us are 'quest whores', half of us (about 6) are trying out hand at crafting (it isn't as boring as it...

    Everquest II

    I play EQ2 on a 3Ghz P4, 1GB ram, and an BB ATI x800pro at 1600x1200 at balanced setting and am lag free. However, if I use my 2800+, 1GB ram, and 6800GTOC @ 1280x1024 at balanced settings it can get to be a slideshow at times, which tells me it is a driver issue with nvidia. I can turn up the...

    WoW or EQ2 - MMORPG Showdown

    I agree, played WoW for about 2 days before I figured it wasn't the game for me, too simplified. I have been in the EQ2 Beta for a bit now, and contrary to popular belief it is very playable. There are some bugs here and there, but unlike EQ1 or WoW it isn't a whack-a-mole type of game It...

    Best MMORPG out now

    Out of the games you have played which one did you enjoy the most? I am in the same boat more or less than you are, played DAoC (for about a week, if that), SWG (2 months), EQ (umm, alot..) FFXI (didn't last a month) multiple betas for some of the games that are out now as well as being in...

    help getting started for a new EQ player

    I played EQ for awhile and honestly the books are worthless, only advice I have is to play around with a couple different classes to see what fits you best. The biggest deal is the complimenting classes, that will help out a bunch. I am also waiting for eq2 as others probably are, but for the...

    Doom III - which of these do you suggest for playing?

    My opinon... I own both a 6800GT OC as well as a BB X800Pro, both very nice to play Doom 3 on, but you can't go wrong with a 6800nu. However, if you are looking to spend the money on that ASUS model, I would look a bit more into that card, in most cases you can get a 6800GT which is a better...

    Whos PSU not strong enough for 6800GT?

    My SilentX 250w gave me all sorts of problems with the BFG 6800gt OC. I read all these rave reviews about how it wouldn't be a problem...... I have the ICE fan, 1 sata hd, 1 dvd-burner, and had the 6800gt. I switched cards out of my two main machines, the x800Pro is now in the shuttle with no...

    I also have the new BFG GT only running @ ultra speeds with no problem. However, I do live in TX and am going to wait til it cools down a bit before I try to go any higher.

    6800 GT temps

    BFG w/ new/old cooler @ Ultra speeds gets up to 83, while running that cool program (rthdribl) for about 20 minutes or so fullscreen 3dMark03 reported 68 after it ran a couple times, but from what I and others here have noticed is after 3dmark is finished the temp drops about 8-10 degrees...

    Is BFG Manufacturing their 6800's yet......???

    First off, I just came from BBY with my brand spanking new 6800GTOC, and it looks well different. If I had a damn camera I'd post it. PCB is blue, same length as before, new cooler, looks pretty slick. The cooler has a silver (aluminum?) cover over what looks like a completely copper HS...

    Blowhole IN or OUT?

    What I was trying to say was to 'duct' the rear blower over the heatsink and I.C.E. cooler, and if that was done, would it be better to have an intake or a blower somewhere else. Yeah, I know my question didn't come across like that, actually it wasn't even remotely close. I read some...

    Blowhole IN or OUT?

    Given the question, would a 'blowhole' on a shuttle, work better if it were an intake? Also, if it were feasible for it to be an intake how much room, if any, is there for a duct over the HS, to help push the warmer air out via the heatpipes? If I'm not understanding how heatpipes work...

    Opinions on the Coolermaster Praetorian

    I have the case in question. I really like it so far. I have only had it about a month, but airflow seems good. I have an Antec True430 installed with no problems, there is even ample space to hide the unused PSU cable(s) on the back side of the tray. Additionally it is an easy case to...

    new comp: can i get away without a floppy drive?

    I built my last 2 comps without a floppy, however, I did have to use a floppy to get SATA drive up and running. Worst case, if I absolutley need a floppy for whatever reason I have one in the desk just in case.

    Need help quieting a hard drive

    I just transfered cases, from a Sonata to a Coolermaster pac-t01 (praetorian) and the seagate 120 sata drive I have is rather noisy. I didn't notice this while it was in the Antec case, but then again the Sonata was on the floor, whereas I put the Coolermaster case up on the desk. Now I have...
