OK guy for those that missed out those to deposit the most money in my account can fight for 3 Quake wars keys :rolleyes:

EDIT

1) Pauly33GTS-t key sent

2) your name here

**UPDATED**

black32. the ps3 is not overpriced, it is priced correctly, go and buy all the units that the ps3 can do as per its specs for under 1000, that and i got my ps3 for 850. 2ndly the games are awesome, and to that, the games at the moment are only using 30 percent of cell's capability. so in september they expect those games to use close to 50 percent and next year hopefully with pro evo 2008 the console will be made most of its own resources by developers.

microsoft knows that the ps3 will overtake it eventually, ps2 alraedy won the xbox vs ps2 war because it was just so popular, but now xbox has released its console early to compete with the ps3 but the ps3's technology is so far more advanced.

yes I have a hd tv, and yes you need one to witness how good it is. if u have an xbox360 how dissapointed were u for being lied to about having a HDMI output on ur console, HDMI ftw. and blueray, you can tell the difference between a blueray and a dvd at 1080p. indeed. the winner is ps3, at the moment xbox360 is only winning because ppl couldnt wait for a next gen console when it was released.

pauly please don't embarrass yourself anymore.

I can easily spec a ps3 for under 1000 dollars. It's called buying a US or Japanese unit. Or you could buy a korean unit get a bigger HDD standard and also pay less. Or you could get the aformentioned US or Japanese unit and receive what we were promised in the form of a EE and GS chipset.

Your take on the games is "subjective" not "objective" the launch was quite weak with no AAA quality titles. That is a fact check the reviews worldwide. Yes games on a whole are more down to personal taste but looking at them objectively not 1 single game at the ps3 launch improves on what has already been done.

And black32 what the hell are you talking about? I've made no mention of game prices. I've paid over 3x that much for games on the Neo Geo so 100 dollars for a game seems pretty good to me.

And to get use of the eye candy you do need a high definition display your an idiot if you don't believe that.

And as i've mentioned numerious times i am a sony fanboy at heart. I'm just not stupid enough to beleive the crap sony has been sprouting the past few years.

how can u say u dont need HDMI when its the only way youll get 1080p on high def monitors.... you are crazy kralster. HDMI is going to be a standard, as its just been proven to be so good. its not sony promising bullshit, what have they said about the ps3 that has been bullshit apart from a few things that could probably be fixed with better firmware...

Yes you do notice a great jump in clarity with 1080p than viewing it on ur old dog rumpus room tv u bought for 82 dollars at a garage sale...

and how the f**k have i embarassed myself by displaying general knowledge? microsoft said xbox will have hdmi... but it doesnt. great. i feel embarassed now.

Why are we talking about HMDi all of the sudden? i see no mention of it anywhere in this thread.

HDMi is not the best either espcially for carrying audio. You will be hard pressed to find anything that sounds better than a good quality balanced imput, or a coaxial digital cable.

Microsoft never said the 360 would have HDMi either so i don't know where you got that. They in fact said that it wouldn't be neccesasary on the 360. I do agree though that it would of been wise to have the option of both an AV multi out and a HDMi on the 360, the same as on the ps3.

Also i hate to break it to you but 1080P can be done over component cables. (you may wanna research stuff before you say it) The 360 has been doing it since Febuary. And the ps3 has been able to do it all the time. The biggest problem is finding a screen that accepts 1080P over component becasue a lot do not.

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
