I also think your chances are pretty good that it will be fine. But if you dont feel comfortable with the idea, just ask them to swop it around. Afterall, it shouldnt be a problem for them if you havent used it. Id rather just do it and have peace of mind...

Yeah, afaik it should recognise just over 3 gigs (around 3.3) and that .7 isnt going to make a difference on XP. But just double check in anycase on that. It will improve your performance. Especially with newer games and media etc.

Thanks for the link frozenfireside. Will check it out!

DVDL, yeah im running vista 64bit

I installed Vista Ultimate 64bit SP1 recently for the first time and havent looked back since, after being VERY sceptical about it previously (Hence the reason i only installed it now). Everything runs beautifully and it looks great too. It gets my vote for people who have proper setups. For older s...

I need to upgrade my RAM seeing as ive upgraded to Vista and my games arent running as smoothly as they used to. I am currently on 2Gb Kingston HyperX DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 modules and was thinking of getting 2x2Gb 1066 DDR2 modules, but im having a hard time deciding which to get. Im on a bit of a tigh...

"Does your son use Quake??" BWAHAHAHA!!!

Yeah, as if money is no object? bah

Get a desktop.

i cant wait for the new NFS. Pro Street sucked... so with this new Most wanted influence hopefully it will make it alot more popular. looking forward to this one Im totally with you on that one. Loved the NFS series (since the first). But Prostreet was another story. I installed, did one lap, unins...

What games you playing Tiza? Worms open warfare is quite fun to play online.

Try any look and listen. In my oppinion they have the best collections..

Oh, thanks!! Missed that!

Im considering buying a 360 elite soon, but heard there are rumours on possible price drops and hardware changes due soon? Anyone know more about this?

I vote nr 3..

(I didnt have time to read through the whole thread, so excuse me if i state something again thats already been said) I would reccomend looking at either a Razer mouse (deathadder or lachesis) or the G9. The Razer mice are a bit larger so they have a bit more support for your lower palm, depending o...

You mean for R1999? Or are you talking second hand?

Crysis is also the first instalment of a trilogy. But i agree, the ending sucked none the less. Must be some sort of marketing move. Just cant make any sense of it - lol

ACE Combat > All

lol

What difference is there if you compare that dvd drive to the current ones? Anything significant?

Hmm k.

Would there be any reason to wait for newer stock to come in from suppliers? Eg. improvements in hardware or whatever

Ok cool.
Soz, wasnt being very clear - i meant HD cabling as in high definition cabling

Naw havent tried looknlisten or hifi corp. Take2 = supplier out of stock.

What u guys think about the 360 elite? Seriously marketing gimmick or maybe worth it for the 120gig hd, hd cabling (apparently it can cost quite a bit???) etc?

EDIT: Are there any other differences?

Wtf, i have been asking around for 360s and just about everyone seems to be sold out.

Umm, he wants to know how to make it display a summary? Not just the FPS? Or does that suffice starbound??

Starbound, thats a good question. If you goto #quake3 on the za.shadowfire.org IRC network, im sure someone will be able to give you an answer. Used to play loads of quake and as far as i remember, there isnt a built in function for displaying decent statistics regarding time demos. But im speaking ...
