  1. Basically I was playing pb and spawned in iso, opened it and just stood outside of it not moving. 1 CT sees me and just automatically kills me; is this even aloud?
  2. ExRev, that was a terrible experience playing that map.
  3. Suppose you're right, I have no problem with it being longer, as long as it's not shorter.
  4. The timer seems a perfect length. I suppose it could be a bit longer, but much of the time you have the time to check the maps and pick one you like.
  5. Generally speaking (since not all cards are the same) they're usually 11 inches in length.
  6. Upgrading

    It depends on the laptop, some have a GPU right on the main board of the laptop, otherwise it shouldn't be a problem to get a new laptop card.
  7. 6c017b2296b9897d57456c154070a885.png Not particularly, plus Nvidia cards have CUDA and PhysX support. I would go with the 670 FTW over a 7970 anyday.
  8. 80 PLUS is an efficiency, an 80 Plus Bronze will do 80+ power efficiency guaranteed, 80 Plus Silver will do 80-85, Gold will do 85, and Platinum will do 90+, I believe, don't quote me on it. Basically they just transfer power much more efficiently. Also 600 is plenty for overhead.
  9. You may want something bigger for some breathing room and for future expansion. Like a 600-700W or something like this. Also be sure to get a 80 PLUS power supply.
  10. EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Video Card (02G-P4-2678-KR) - PCPartPicker or Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card (GV-R797OC-3GD) - PCPartPicker A 7970 If you like Radeon, but I would still recommend the 670 FTW.
  11. New rig

    The FX-4100 is on a shitty micro-architecture get something on Piledriver.

    Stuff from CyberPower PC is way overpriced in the end. You should really build your own, it's much cheaper.
  14. Yes, but on the 212 Plus the heat pipes are apart and has gaps that are hard to clean and is just a hassle.
  15. Reason for the EVO is that the thermal paste is hard to apply because the heat pipes aren't all together. But I wouldn't even recommend getting a 212 seeing how much money he's putting in this. He should get a either a Noctua or Phantek air cooler, or a Corsair or Thermaltake liquid cooler. Something like that or something cheaper, it's all about what you're looking to do. Also, the whole AMD vs Intel thing I have no take in currently. All I know is that the 8350 has been said to get better FPS in games than Intel, but no one is sure of the fidelity or such thing.
