The October 2006 issue

Post by Ron2K »

Picked up my copy of the October issue last night. As always, a very informative read, especially the overclocking section (although I'm still not persuaded to give that a try) and the cooling system. Now I'm off to the shops to buy some more fans (water and computers aren't meant to mix, in my opinion).

I'm now really looking forward to Battlefield 2142, and I'm definitely getting Flatout 2 - sounds like a whole lot of fun. Also, I'm going to give creating The Elder Scrolls V a go... :P

As usual, had a good long laugh at the Ask Luis section. Especially the one where he published a question that his wife asked him. (Is he trying to get divorced or what?)

And then, there's this. :lol:
Kia kaha, Kia māia, Kia manawanui.

I'd say it is one of the PCF's, Lots of interesting stuff and I might just read every word in the mag.

I also read the article on cooling with interest. Where did they get an XClio case, and more importantly, where can I get one?!
