:lol:

We're not insane, merely misunderstood.

I feel I need to get back into my miggy habit. My new PC is a tad too all singing and all dancing and frankly I'm starting to get a bit bored of it doing everything so effortlessly!

I now have hundreds of gigaflops of performance at my fingertips and no real idea what to do with it all :lol:

When I've got 300MIPs worth of PPC or even a mere 20 MIPs worth of 040 at my fingertips I seemingly find lots of uses for it.

There's no skill required in coding for the new PC. The most dog awful code imaginable flies on it, even Vista...

I don't think I'll overclock my Q9450 until they are significantly cheaper to replace. The GTX260 graphics card came pre overclocked by XFX which goes some small way to closing the gap between it and the 280 which was stupidly expensive in comparison.

That said, at 2.66GHz, I have yet to stress the system. It handles Crysis with all settings "Very high" amicably. Under linux, the CUDA n-body simulation pushes 18 billion interactions per second.

Pretty nippy.

I would beg to difffer.  I don't know that I've met anyone on here in my 15 years who isn't "strange" in their own special way...  

We do after all have necrotechnological tendencies in worshiping a dead platform...

I don't think Speel means it literally, it's a reference to the fictional town "Royston Vasey" in the macabre comedy series "The League of Gentlemen".

Basically a small town choc full of inbred weirdos, where the couple (brother and sister) running the local shop have a tendency to take an instant and pathological dislike to anybody "not local". Not long afterwards, the sinister butcher tends to have more "special stuff" for sale.

Incidentally, if you have never seen it, you have got to find it somewhere. It's hilarious :)
