kralster Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Hey i'm not a fan on those crazy looking boxes with holes and flames in em. I just have a nice big black box I built this myself about this time last year. Athlon 64 Socket 939 3200+ Dual 6600GT's ASUS SLi-Deluxe MB (was the best board money could buy at the time) Dual layer DVD burner And seperate CD burner 17inch LCD 8ms monitor And my dads old Logitech speakers. Pretty happy with it but am still using my old 80gig hdd so i really need to get a new one. I also have too many consoles Gameboy Gameboy pocket Gameboy Advance Gameboy Advance SP Nintendo DS Sony PSP Atari Lynx Super Famicom (japanese SNES) Sony Playstation Sony Playstation 2 Sega Saturn Sega Dreamcast Nintendo Gamecube And i have hundreds of original games for all of them. Been playing games since i was 4 years old (21 now) And am picking up my XBOX360 at midnight on the 22nd of this month. I'll post pictures of it all at some stage maybe if i can be stuffed.

DC_GTST Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 LOL.... Hey there Madaz I just realised you're the only other person ive seen with the same box as me - Thermaltake one! Btw...did you get the fans working correctly? all four with the control at the front? Mine didnt come with instructions as it was the display box (got it cheaper)... Oh..and a few games i noticed you're missing: 1) Need for Speed Most wanted 2) Unreal Tournament Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/108819-computer-jargon/#findComment-2004607 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_GTST Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 who pays for games?...pfft. I think i have a common theme here Madaz: I manage to get all four fans working, but i only have control of a few of them and even that is arguable (i know they all work, just not sure if the actual fans react to my changes on the dials). If you can find a user manual or the likes for the case that would be great Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/108819-computer-jargon/#findComment-2005345 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were well into Seatle, thats our fav, but can slide Trial Mountain, Grand Valley, Laguna Seca, Deep forrest and of course SSR5 wet and dry, generally use the sprinters in the wet!

Iceduck312 Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hey guys.. I can't believe you guys pay retail for the games..lol my suggestion, go to www.zest.co.th and buy your games there... cheaper just to buy cd key and download the game.. e.g.bf2 key--- after money conversion from thailand only $20 bucks... I bought my bf2 and cod2 there... and madaz... ur ventrillo server...I log in and half the time ur away..lol...
