[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="6" id="2997673"]The semi-precious stones are really worth more than the diamonds which are a totally artificial market. They are also more beautiful imo and have 'personalities' ... diamonds are vanilla.[/quote] I couldn't have said it better, Doc. Plus we can make diamonds that are better than the ones nature produces, and diamond has far better uses than being stuck on a ring LIN
And very proud of it, my dear
I've never been a fan of diamonds, or gold. Now if they found a planet primarily comprised of amethyst, that would be a different matter. Mmmmm, purple! [e digicons]:drool:[/e]

Very nice looking blind, and a freakin' sweet design for the Start menu. Looking forward to the end product. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
[quote who="starkers" reply="18" id="2996112"]I think next up I'm going to replace my current WD SATA'2's with a couple of SATA3's.... may as well take advantage of the higher speeds now I have the mobo technology to support them.[/quote] Starkers. For the love of Jeff do not change your Sata II drives to Sata III's. Any performance increase from Sata III drives will be negligible. It's really just HDD manufacturers wanting to keep selling new
[quote who="JcRabbit" reply="27" id="2995388"]In the end, it turns out that even a 5970+5870 in tri-crossfire is barely enough for a single 30" when running Crysis, much less three of them.[/quote] That's obscene! It's also the reason I've never played Crisis, even though I do have it.
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="2" id="2995421"]Do you have permission from Mike? This would be required.[/quote] I'll (hopefully) get permission in another week or so. I'm thinking I might have a go at some Fett folders while I'm at it because I'm a glutton for punishment . Seriously, I've developed a new found respect for the Fett blind and everything it's spawned since, no wonder Mike's a Master. <p
'Cause I don't want to be uploading inferior stuff on here. Especially considering my first upload may well be this: My attempt at some hard drives to compliment the Fett Windowblind by MikeB314 and the various skins based on it. Do they suck? I'm not used to using the pen tool, and I have no idea how the weathered look was done originally, so I just winged it and did the best I could. They

Sounds nice, Doc, and thanks for the info. I wish it were unlimited storage for documents that haven't been created with Office though. I may have to look into SkyDrive at some point.
[quote who="unacomn" reply="20" id="2995223"]How well would you say it handles audio input?[/quote] I'm sorry but I don't use my card for recording. At the moment I'm using a Xonar DS, and I'm more than happy with how things sound on my Sennheiser HD 202's. The Xonar DX seems to be their middle-of-the-road offering and it got decent reviews when it was released. The DS model that I'm using is slightly scaled down from the DX, which in turn is a lesser version o
The main reason I'll have to upgrade to a Xonar DX is because when I go Crossfire the PCI slot will be covered over. I'll probably have to go Crossfire sometime next year because I'll be buying a 27" IPS panel monitor that runs at 2650 x 1440 (native res), so one 6870 probably won't be able to play my games with all the eye candy at max. Though from what I've read you can sacrifice the anti-aliasing a little because of the resolution and how squished together the pixels wi
That's a nice sounding rig, Brad. I don't really have the budget to go Intel so, like Starkers, I've gone AMD for my CPU. I'm in the process of buying my next rig bit by bit, and so far I have: Phenom II x6 1090t, which I'll overclock to 3.8/4.0 GHz 8GB Crucial Valueram @1333, which I'll overclock to 1600 Crucial M4 64GB SSD for OS and programs Crucial C300 128GB for Steam and games Seasonic X650 Gold PSU Asus 6870 Direct

Very nice work, Vampothika. Keep 'em comin'. I always sucked at doing portraits, but you certainly don't. What did you use to paint it, if you don't mind me asking? I'm looking at buying a graphic tablet next year, because paint is getting to be too expensive for me.
Happy Birthday, Marine. Oorah!
I'd never noticed all the straps in this blind. Kinky! Now I really have to get this one. [e digicons]O:)[/e] [e digicons]:blush:[/e]
A man walks into a bar, and while he's waiting for his drink he notices the bar owners dog licking its nuts. "I wish I could do that" he says to the bartender, and the bartender replies " ask him nicely, he might let you!"

Nice, clean and simple screeny, tazgecko. Me likes. As much as I hate to say this, my money's on the apple.
