    Now I'm looking at a set on overclockers... Is corsair a good ram to go with or should I maybe look at one of the others??

    Corsair is good enough, I use it myself in my systems, but it is budget RAM in comparison with other brands.. I personally don't believe in spending a chunk of money on RAM, especially when it's the same amount you're buying (e.g a 1024mb stick), some of the price discrepancies between the brands is ridiculous!, it's RAM for crying out loud!, you're not going to get THAT much of a marked difference!

    Yeah Master, you're in what's officially known as the grieving period of subscription, it may have expired but some of it still lingers on... such as your custom tag :p

    Ouch, I don't think I'll ever subscribe for a year at a time, I never know when I'll next offend a moderator and be sitebanned!, I go for the three month subscription, false economy - but hey..

    Jesus!, did you and Sparky_S (I'm presuming it's the same sparky from Boards as I see a pic of miss Elisha Cuthbert on the page!) pay for a vbulletin license and setup your own Boards?!. Kaching!, that software isn't cheap!

    I've done that and spent about 200 more than I wanted to:rolleyes:

    But if it last longer the 19/20 months it will be worth it. Still have to sleep on it though.

    Really appreciate your help Master.

    I've also just joined Sparky's:p I know one of the mods over there:D

    Hmmm.... Nice info on the X800GTO2 masteroftherealm. Never realised that the success rates were that good with it!

    I may swap my 6800GT for one, hand me down my 6800GT to the family computer and get one of those bad boys. I know the 6800GT is worth more, but it's AGP and I want to get it off my hands and get a PCI-E board instead. This is gonna be sweet if I can get it to X850XT :D That card maims my GT in DirectX 9 games. It will suck going back to ATI though, I despise their drivers.
