Newegg has a 60GB OCZ Vertex Plus for $50 after MIR right now. Is this drive ok for a SSD cache on a Z68 mobo? I know it's older, and I poked around at some reviews (including Anand's), but wanted to see what you guys thought.
Thanks for the help.
They're certainly older than "the last few years" but the Max Payne games are great for single player, though 3rd person not 1st. Certainly would run fine on your GPU.
Contractor or civilian? As a contractor you're right, since they aren't paid out of appropriation directly, but as a civilian you'd only be mostly right. Civilian "critical" personnel are going to be like the military, working but not paid on time. You'll have to get it retroactively. Better...
The "they" you speak of aren't the ones shutting down. Congress will still be plugging away, earning their paychecks. It's the actual workers that are going to be staying home.
Why does no one feel bad for the government workers that work paycheck to paycheck and are getting laid off...
Disclaimer: I haven't played this game. However, an observation:
If your home country is occupied, and you're part of a small resistance cell trying to fight guerrilla warfare against them, covert ops behind enemy lines with no support sounds like the ONLY mission type you'd ever be going on...
850 is still overkill for CF 6970s, IMO. I wouldn't go above 750. Those cards are very efficient, and unless you're going to overvolt them, I don't see how you'd use that much power.
The worry I have with buying one of those computers and upgrading the video card is that you are more than likely getting a piece of crap power supply that may not be able to handle a decent video card. You'll have to try and check both the PSU wattage and what connectors it has when you're...
Neither one of those computers will handle BC2 or BF3 at what I'd consider playable settings. The graphics cards (AMD 5450 in the first, Intel HD graphics in the second) are too weak, especially the Intel HD.
If you head over to the the General Hardware forum, read the sticky post at the...
Speaking from experience, a computer will still boot if caps on your video card pop, but it won't stay up for long. Check the mobo and video card first since you can do that easily.
Somewhat off-topic, but a question for those that have pre-ordered the two pack. The single game pre-order on Steam comes with a free copy of Portal 1. Did you get a copy of Portal 1 with the two-pack pre-order? Just curious.
