It's only a semi-cupcake card, but it'll get you entry! (twss)


I'm just waiting for someone to do something really stupid like get an ultra, so they have a super-cupcake card. But to anyone who reads that as a challenge... don't, really just don't.

Fix'd.

My mate has two ultras, but since he paid for neither, getting them as long term demo parts for his wonder rig that he sells inferior copies of to gullible people, I let him off, I don't let him off four dell 24" monitors though, the cupcake.

Explain how he did that and I may venerate you for a long long time.

Well... it sounds like he has a business selling PC's and gets demo equipment to test.

So all you have to do is set up a business!, buying all these items individually may turn out cheaper.

I shouldn't look at these threads as they make me want to buy new hardware, and I shouldn't.

They are big fuck-off cards aren't they! :lol: Mine scrapes up against the removeable hdd cage and means I'm down a space for a hdd, but I've got 2 in, and room for 5 more, so it's not too bad. :P

Also, Bobbins is correct, my mate builds pc's as part of his job, mostly he installs broadband/fixes servers etc, but a sideline (that earns him a fuckload) is high end 'technology solutions', the installation of round the house music systems that run from pda's, having a pda that lets your home welcome you home through speakers in the hallway with a sexy voice, then asking what music you'd like is rather expensive. And people who like that,like machines that they don't need to go with the pda He's a spawny bastard, gets round to passing his driving test and goes out and buys himself a 350z to celebrate. :cry:

Sure it's not stuck in the post office backlog? Play generally don't fuck about. Although I did order my bioshock at the same time as kv, and at that time I was living at his house, his copy turned up, mine was a day later.

Still, my new rig is eating up soupcum in a way my old pc simply couldn't, so the game has developed a new lease of life for me.

And yarr, the gts is mahoosive. I had to remove the rear HDD cage fan holder or it wouldn't've fit.
You should have bought it on Steam :ignore:

This reminds me of the future beef addon. Bought it, waited a few days for it to arrive, found I'd been sent an dvd-less dvd jewel case with a bit of paper in saying d/l it, here's your purchase code. If I'd KNOWN the fucking thing was empty I'd have ordered paid and d/l'd off the ea link thing (even though it sucks a bitall of the suck) and had it the same fucking night. But valve are nice people, EA are cupcake baskets.
