Command And Conquer Gererals : Zero Hour,

another VPN thread,

zzzxtreme — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:27:37 +0800

hi sorry don't know which section to post this

i've just applied for streamyx at bandar utama. OK connection to US, slow connection to Europe, fast connection to Asia including Japan.

I hope to look for a VPN service (or something like that?) that can improve my overall connectivity for http downloads, torrents, and (PING) latency for gaming.
(DOTA,diablo, Starcraft, Counterstrike)
Is there such thing?

I remember last time I cannot surf abc.com at all, but if using proxy I could. So I assume it's streamyx's fault

Please recommend a good one for me yah sifu

The power of Eyefinity, Oh my...

zioburosky13 — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 19:13:10 +0800

For those who criticize AMD/ATI's Eyefinity is useless and is better to get a single and huge monitor,

here are some tasty screenshots of showing off the true power of it.

Hm, nice menu.

Holy shit! O-o
Btw that one is running at 5760x1200.
(Even though I don't how crappy the PC version is, I still can't shake my head in awe at the screenshots)

Last but not least,

One thing I don't like this "ver-the-shoulder camera angle" is that you can't really see the left side of your character (or right side if you play REsident Evil 5 as Sheva). With Eyefinity, now the dead zone is gone! (handy to kill those damn aliens in Dead Space).
Now if only those price of monitors keeps dropping....

More to read here. (Yeah those pics are from there.)

Discuss .

Some desc of the game

From the makers of Mass Effect, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Baldur's Gate comes Dragon Age: Origins, an epic tale of violence, lust, and betrayal. The survival of humanity rests in the hands of those chosen by fate. You are a Grey Warden, one of the last of an ancient order of guardians who have defended the lands throughout the centuries. Betrayed by a trusted general in a critical battle, you must hunt down the traitor and bring him to justice. As you fight your way towards the final confrontation with an evil nemesis, you will face monstrous foes and engage in epic quests to unite the disparate peoples of a world at war.

The author listed Battletoads as #1. IMO, the Final Fantasy VIII should be in #1. The game really disappointed me.

Your favourite and most hate SF4 character,

Looking for Laser Gaming Mouse?,

monsterkane07 — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 13:33:17 +0800

Guys,

Just to share with you!!

This morning i brought my Hard Drive to Low Yat for warranty. Notice at the ground floor there, they are having PC Week offers. Notice Acer, Toshima. Asus etc notebooks on offer there.

But then i also saw a A4 Tech booth there. A4 Tech having a very good promotion there!!

I saw they have a trade in program there. Bring any old mouse regardless what brand can trade in for A4 Tech gaming laser mouse for half a price, 50% off. Tomolo i will bring my damn mouse to trade in for the A4 tech latest XL-747H.

What is a good GC for games nowadays?,

zenix — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 22:44:52 +0800

I've been out of the loop for sometime anyone can intro me a good graphics card?

I bought my system earlier this year with a Nvidia 9500gt.
Felt it was kinda not up to par few weeks back and decided to sell it.
Not sure what tot buy now.

Some friends suggesting me to get the (now cheaper in 2nd hand form) legendary Nvidia 8800's and do SLI. Or even two 9800 cards. I'm guessing this will cost me around 400-500 bucks.

Then I was looking at GTX260 new around 500-600 bucks new, don't need to do SLI and save on energy consumption and casing space.

Then I also saw some GTX270 and GTX280's in the garage sales for around that price.

Any suggestions or info?

Really confusing

My current rig:
AMD Athlon 64 x2 5000+ 2.6ghz
2GB RAM
Asus NF4 Mobo (can't remember exact model)
Acbel 450w PSU
HP w2228h 22" wide screen monitor native res 1680x1050@60hertz

Budget sub rm600 but of coz as malaysian more cheaper more better rite?
