Re: im getting a new graphics card!!! :)
My parents refer to any computer as a "nintendo." Neither can tell you how to turn one on. (Pardon the use of a sentence ending in a prepositional phrase.) Part of me wishes I could still get free stuff from my parents, but then I remember that would make me "that guy" that still mooches off his parents well into his 20's. So I deal with crappy graphics so I can go to Arby's when I feel like it. To the young ones: Get it while the gettin's good! Dolla' Dolla' bill ya'll!

Its about time Blade, should never use your Motherboards GFX card... sound card on the MB you can get away w/, but never GFX for gaming.

Well finally Blade, maybe now you get actually good in hitting things
No seriously, when I changed from a crappy computer to a new one, the fps increased 4x. I was able to shoot people yeah!

Nice! Hope you enjoy your new graphics card.

I have an XFX 9500GS 512 MB you can have for the cost of mailing, without joining the army. A good card but no resale value. I just saw you were in the UK, I'm in Seattle,pm if you're interested.

That 4670 is a pretty nice card. Almost as fast as my 2900 but it uses less power, runs cooler, etc. I hope you enjoy it!

Re: im getting a new graphics card!!! :)
Got myself a little present after a couple of months of saving
BFG GTX 260 OC, well worth it! It absolutely blitzes BF2 and runs crysis very well on High settings.
Just out of interest what part of the Army you joining? I gotta do my navy application in september
