Default A few updates to the pc

Well, was bored with the standard looking Dell case, so ordered a new one, 3 new 120mm ultra quiet fans, a new CPU cooler (thanks Dell for your crap design!!), a ATi Radeon 4670 1GB graphics card, and erm, a few leads etc...

Oh and another 22" Viewsonic monitor... So now running twin screens.

A few pics (first is the required screen specs):



And the 2nd TFT on the desktop.




I'm quite chuffed with the Vista score of 5.6 overall.

Next month I think I'll be investing in a new motherboard that accepts DDR3 ram, and then I'll be throwing the 8gb I have in 4 DDR3 sticks sat in the cupboard.

I'm loooooooooooooooving the 44" combined, 3360 x 2100 total pixels of my twin 22" viewsonics....Though I'm slightly annoyed, as Viewsonic sent me a 2nd generation monitor instead of the 4th generation model I sent for repair, so the frame is slightly bigger against my new 4th gen one.

I cant complain though!! I've got my new desk arriving tuesday, then I'm wallmounting them both.

Interesting stuff.

You just need one thing- Get rid of that gay mouse and buy yourself COD MW2.. You'll not look back

Nope, my marble trackball is staying! Its the most accurate mouse I've ever used, and I've no intention of getting rid... Besides, I use my cheapy car mouse complete with headlights if I have mucky hands!! Its crap, but its comical to use.
