Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Can only play it a little each day, but it was definitely worth the wait to the PC. Bought myself a PS2 style gamepad for my PC so I could do the flying missions easier.

But... Its already out but... *Looks into wallet*

Er... Forget it~

I heard there is this new version of FF7, I'm not sure, but I still like FF8. er, one reason will be they have got more cute dudes? =X

Yes, they are actually designing a more realistic version of Final Fantasy 7. The game trailer is out so check it out if you have the time. It looks really nice. The music and all that is the same. I'm so excited! WHOOPEE! It's all in 3-D or whatever so yes... it's mucho cool. CHECK IT OUT!

Currently, I'm playing Final Fantasy 7, Fantastic Four (Har har har), Street Fighter 3rd Strike, King of Fighters (the older ones), and that's it. I'm waiting for my brother to finish downloading Empire Earth II... always a fan of strategy games. I can't wait until Age of the Empires III comes out this Winter. Woo hoo. :dancing:

Arc the Lad: End of Darkness...i'm an RPG junkie...Arc the Lad games own my soul.

i never knew that there is a thread for games. nice idea :applaud: :applaud: ! no time for PS2 stuff and on online games. just my PSP beside me, that will complete my day. especially when play ridgeracers and metal gear acid.

Im playing Battlefield 2 right now :D

I was playing BF2 too, till my waterblock started to leak - destroying my vidcard and mobo. :shamefulcry: still waiting for RMA..

OUCH... well.. unfortunately, that's just a risk that comes with using water cooling. Funny thing is that rather than trying to expel all the air out of my computer case, I'm trying to keep as much of it in as I can. Reason for this? Well. I'd like to keep my room cool esp with 2 computers in here. Having 2 computers blowing about 60cfm of 100 degree hot air doesn't help at all.

Major reason I wanted to cool with water wasn't the heat, it was the noise being generated by multiple (silent) papst case fans + the zalman cpu cooler it still adds up.

It seems that blocks oftenly start leaking in the summer.

What kind of block do you have??

It's an Asetek Antartica, oh well... :cleanup:

Are you planning on another block? or the same block? If you are planning to get a new block may I recommend Dangerden. Its good a company and rather afforadable. GOOD LUCK.

i already finish "Resident Evil 4" and it's the best game of the year

I'm getting a new block from them, it just can happen to any brand sadly. It worked properly for nearly a year. thank god for warranty

I have a Swiftech setup and its been more than a year, so Ive been lucky nothing has leaked.... :sweat: Knock on wood... :fingerscrossed:

Now I think of it, do you have your reservoir in a 5.25" bay? I highly discourage people mounting it up there. Even though it's usually adviced to mount it up there.. I'm now thinking as someone who experienced a leak.

In my case a leaking waterblock resulted in a dead vidcard and mobo. (usually only vidcard - mine was a 6800LE fully unlocked 16pipes, 6 shaders I'm pretty sad about that, but the price of 6800GT is dropping now)

But a reservoir leak - this happens quite often too: could lead to a dead dvdrom burner (not too bad and cheap to replace) but the worst of em all: your harddisk(s). I got 2 HD's in my rig, I'd really cry if I lost my data/movies/anime and what not.

I dont have a reservoir in my system. Its a closed loop with no air. Which means I dont lose water. :mrgreen:
