anyone got windows 7 yet?

tbh swede if you arnt video encoding/3d rendering, then any type of quad would be fine.Ive considered upgrading to an i7 for my 3yr old dual core but I cant justify it, still running at 3.5ghz and blazing through anything I throw at it.Even my after effects\sony vegas renders dont take anytime.Most of the benchmarks you see are people opening up single gigabyte images in photoshop or professional grade 3d studio renders and the like, something 99.99999% of people wont get anywhere near.Basically anything you buy with a quad on the label, 4gb of any ram and some graphics card that begins with ATI 48xx will last you for another 4 years at least.

agreed!

i'm running
AMD Phenom II X4 940 3.0Ghz
OCZ Reaper HPC 2x2GB PC2-8500
Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 512MB

on this setup getbig is really smooth

Just saw a test crushed the more expensive hdmi cables vs the ALOT more cheaper. No real difference at all.

But then I remembered, some people get lag on their tv, that might be caused because of the cheap cables, and i should go for one thats little bit more expensive, because after all im gonna watch Alot of fullhd movies, and any type of lagging would drive me insane.

so Im thinking that this might be ok?

hmdi cables are digail. For short runs, like under 20 of so feet, there is no difference between the cheap ones the $$$ ones. Just make sure you get cables that can play 1080p, some old cables can't.

I still to this day remember then I bought the game "sims", with my hard earned money.. And when I got home and tried to install it, it look like 50min to install, and then before the 100% complete, it crashed because the computer was too slow.

Man I was devastated.

It kinda upsets me thinking back about it for some strange ass reason lol.

ASUS Radeon HD 5850 1GB GDDR5

Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 1GB GDDR5


I think asus is more stable?

they all use the same chip -_- why would asus be more stable hu ? they dont use hardware from outer space its all the same.

LMAO, that pretty much covers my teenage PC use.

[nicky.smth]

So much smoother, never needs a reboot, the UI is just amazing, new taskbar where shortcuts integrate with running programs is a godsend,running cursor over icon in taskbar shows all open windows in that program, themes like a slideshow as your desktop,wiggling a window closes all other open windows to minimise, dragging a window to left or right side of the screen will cause the window to fill that half of the screen, new search feature that finds any file instantaneously, can tune it so you never get pestered by popups....ever,homegroup allows piss easy setup of network PC's,far less memory hungry than vista, x64 version runs 32 bit apps flawlessly while allowing you to use more than 4GB of memory,native support for touch screens, amazing support for streaming to you from home PC say to your ipod touch while out and about,media centre included is amazing considering its built in and from Microsoft, Windows explorer is great now....completely redesigned and tons more shit I'm probably forgetting.Basically its just so fucking smooth and easy to get things done, you'll wonder how you stuck with xp for so long.

Main thing it just works for 99.9% of people right off the bat, most drivers are included on the install disk so your up and running within 20 mins from formatting and doing a fresh install (no other way IMHO).

X2...Ive been using Windows 7 since the turn of 2008....i like it
