I am sorry for cutting in on your posting.I already got a PM being told about it,something about "ettiquete" on the forum.
This will not happen again,is just that I get curious about people living ways in other countries(Canada) etc.

nice system
:p DROOLING WITH ENVY!!!!!!!!! :p
Hey pal long time no talk!
You and I have similar taste! I love the keyboard, the desk, the 4400+, and its all good stuff man..oh yeah the babes too ;)
Damn man what a powerful system!! I have a choice of upgrading my Tv to a Sceptre 37" 1920x1080p 8 ms tv and getting only a few small computer upgrades like X fi
or spending it all on the PC. I chose the first!!
I will be catching up to you and gaming/movie-ing on my completed HT system
in a few short months.
"You can use Bittorrent and game with not much impact on performance."
Well I recommend you use Utorrent. Ihad this problem when using the slow as snail and problematic> BiTCOMET..ew
Utorrent doesnt have to be installed and takes only 3-5 MB of memory compared to 15 MB of memory+Crashes for bitcomet.
I got Riddick in 1080p. I HIGHLY recommend watching it on there!
as my monitor can display 1920x1440 I recommend you get this movie on torrentspy or somewhere *yeah its a legal recording off of hbo lol*
Sorry I left for a while guys, and Soup, I will deliver what I promised for my boston review. I had some issues to deal with, msn me if you would like to talk!
Heya Buster! Long time to no see my friend. Welcome back!:)
Yup, I love Utorrent and I highly recommend it to everyone. It so efficient and customizable. Oh no worries about the Boston review...everyone gets busy in the real world. Once you go dualcore, you can't go back. Around September Intel will be releasing a dual core chip named "conroe" which is supposed to be really good for gaming/much faster than anything on the market today. (albeit at a premium) I can't wait till high definition DVD is released which will be quite a while thanks to the MPAA/manufacturers/dvd consortium.:p
Take care Buster and hope to see you online. Let me know if you need any help with parting out a new rig.:cool:
Too bad about the housing costs, Vancouver seems to be a real cool town. I may throw my resume up there just to see what happens. I see it rated all the time as one of the best places to live. Good luck with your job search!Quote:

Oh man! The PB10 with PC gaming will get the police knocking at your door.:eek::D
How do you like the SBS system for music? That's pretty cool that it uses a silk tweeter so it won't be too harsh/bright.
Yeah, I can't wait to get the sub hooked up to the PC. Right now I'm using it for movies and playing COD 2 on the 360. The sub rocks da house!! With the SVS system COD 2 is much more immerisive then playing on the PC.
I haven't listened to much music on it, but from what I have heard it sounds great. It may be slightly bright as its geared mostly for HT and if music is your priority then I wouldn't recommend SVS. For the price its a decent deal for a whole 5.1 setup which comparable to much higher priced sets.
Cool, thanks for the info about the SVS speakers. Man, if it weren't for customs/duty I'd so get a SVS Ultra (cyclinder).
On another note I did the Evga step-up program and went from a 7800GT CO to a 7900GT CO Superclocked. Damn customs charged me $44CAN for tax.:p
I think if you have the sender mark it as a "Gift", not as "Merchandise", then you won't have to pay duty on it.Quote:

Just for you Hongsc.:) Here's the updated pics with the Infinity Primus 150 speakers. (sorry about the video noise as I didn't have optimal lighting) I love how the Ikea Jerker desk's shelves swivel outwards. They can hold up to 20lbs each and I've seen people with CRT monitors/PC towers on them. These larger speakers actually make my monitor look smaller. I also replaced my stock X2 4400+ heatsink with a Arctic Cooler 64 Freezer.

Clean them cables!
God those speakers are huge
:o
Thanks and nice setup! I'm tempted to buy a Jerker but I already have other desks and the place I'm moving to is already furnished. I'll probably get a Logitech Harmony soon to finish my HTPC after I intergrate the LCD TV and HT from the living room to the bedroom.
Schweet!
Wow. Back from the dead much? ;)
