I bet it runs portal and episode 2 better than mine

Possibly, but all I've used it so far is VMware.    

I've not even got round to installing any games.

AMD X2 6000+, 2gb of RAM and a Radeon X1950.

Hey hey! I've got a AMD X2 5000+, 2GB of RAM, and a GeForce 8500GT.

As for games, I'd recommend Neverwinter Nights 2 and it's expansion if you're into RPGs.

Buy orange box

Excuse my ignorance or downright stupidness, whats that big glowing asus thing?

Do you really need another 2gb of ram? You don't need 4gb to make pong GL

I've ordered the orange box off playasia, out of stock atm but its only 30...same as what I paid for the pc version.

I'd say a bit of both. It's the heatsink and fan.

Lee... it's been almost three years since I touched PongGL. Do you not think I might be doing other things now? Possibly... (heaven forbid) things that you are not aware of?

I know. It's just a shame really. You'd think after three years he'd have some new material.

I'm not even sure this is Lee. I mean, he's supposed to know Jack, so why is he questioning things?

*Sticky wonders if Aaron's use of /me have all changed to WCC. Sticky then figures yes, because the command line /me automatically applies itself to a page no matter if the user name has changed.

The heatsink I wanted to use wasn't compatible with my motherboard. The backplate was all wrong, hence this pic:



I got some M4 screw-headed bolts and some wingnuts, as the heatsink itself lined up perfectly:



Beauty. Some little cardboard washers and I was well away.

Was going to go dual socket F, but I couldn't find anyone that made proper desktop-sized heatsinks for quietness and performance, they were all 1U or 2U multi-fan screamers, and I really didn't fancy sitting next to a stupidly loud PC for the sake of two monstrous CPUs when I could go AM2.
