you cunt. mine still hasn't arrived. i hate the whole world and plan to sell it to a dog meat factory to be gound up and fed to galaxy-sized space-pooches.

 

[Testin da Cable]

really? damn
get on the phone and swear a bit at whoever's sending it Wij matey

 

[Embattle]

I'll wait until next year vefore I change processor again

 

[Testin da Cable]

dunno if I can hold off that long

 

[Wij]

got mine now

 

[Ch3tan]

I was meant to upgrade over summer.

Im going to be chugging along on this machine next xmas as well the ways things are going.

 

[Testin da Cable]

there's a big HCC [hobby computer club] fair over here in Utrecht this weekend. I'm going friday [early heh] to see what I can see
It's one of the biggest fairs in holland with something like 300.000 visitors.

 

[Testin da Cable]

I've done it

 

[Wazzerphuk]

 

[Testin da Cable]

now to backup my old system and find out if the new one works heh

 

[Wij]

What'd j00 get ?

 

[Testin da Cable]

amd 1800+, epox 8kha+, 512megs 2100, thermaltake dragon orb III


mmmm

 

[Wij]

Similar to me, except I got a Swiftech h4-00ge cooler

 

[Testin da Cable]

hehe that dragon is pretty h00ge too eep. it stands about 20cm high, and weighs more thank half a kilo

I'm a bit worried, as the mb will stand "on it's edge" in a minitower, about undue stress on the cpu-socket.

I almost got a silverado instead. they were selling different kinds, and I remembered the "silence" factor. I imagine that 7000rpm fan in the dragon sounds like a jet engine

 

[Wij]

I was tempted by the Silverado too but couldn't find anywhere selling it. My Swiftie is quite loud. It mounts on the mobo tho so no probs with its weight (nearly a kilo)

 

[Testin da Cable]

the bleedin epox is borked
no power. not a glimmer.
tried everything.
BAH

sending it back tomorrow

 

[Wij]

nasty

 

[Embattle]

LOL....sorry

 

[Testin da Cable]

well, I called the company and they said "send it to us, and we'll swap it for another straight away" usual blahblah.
we'll see

 

[Wij]

my machine sounds like a jet taking off

 

[Testin da Cable]

j00 happy with it? we have more or less the same system so if you're doing backflips I prolly will too

 

[Wij]

It's great. Reeeeeeeeeeeeeally fast and smooth. Makes me wanna finger the usb port and lick the cmos battery for half an hour. Mmm, baby !

 

[Testin da Cable]

wow I just squirted tadpoles everywhere

 

[Wij]

Not on my alcatel frog ??? That would be too weird :/

/me feels the ide cables tightening around his head and eases off licking the cmos battery, just giving it gentle flicks for a while.

 

[bodhi]

ah the joys of computer upgrading.


I installed my P4 without installing the AUX cable. Ooops
