I'm waiting for this sucker:

http://www.tomshardware.com/2008/01/...force_9800gx2/

I have the EVGA G92 card so I should be able to do a trade-up. It would be pretty sick to get 3-SLI into the new 790i chipset.

So no meet tonight? Well, I guess I'll play with my new toys.

Have a good weekend fellas.

Oops, probably should have checked before leaving work. I think I still would have missed it anyway since I leave earlier than you all.

I wondered where everyone was.

2) Intel E8400 wt X38 chipset, ATI HD3870 Cross Fire => 3dmark at 15000

I can play Crysis without getting motion sickness with both system. This is really cool.

How's everyone?

it's always UC (1 day a month it may be moved)... perhaps driving the soccer-mom mobile has clouded your brain?

1 week to the superbowl!!!!

A feature on the car? Wow, don't let the dealer know they will jack up the prices on the cars they have in stock now. Does it have goldfish swimming in it? That would be something to see. I need some sleep now.

Hopefully you won't be like a person I know who moved up to Oregon last summer. He would always buy new computer parts and have no money to spend on anything else (including food). No kidding or exaggeration. He has to have to have the lastest thing. The people at the Sacramento Fry's knew him on a first name basis. He lived at the Sacramento Fry's when he wasn't working.
