add tax and you're close.

But those who pre-ordered are getting it for £400 as an AMD fanboy loyalty discount. I am sure that was the deal, wasn't it? I really hope I didn't dream that one...

If you can run full PhysX effects from your CPU you may want to give nvidia a call and tell them their GPU's aren't needed anymore then.

I can run physx on the normal setting at 1080p, 8msaa and with everything on the highest settings. 23 - 117fps, 59fps average.

I said full PhysX effects, normal on batman is like running low on Borderlands 2, there's a huge difference.

Why not just explain that then rather than resort to needless snarkiness, it's just childish.

For example it does not matter to me if the 290X is way better @BF4 as I am never going to play the game (apart from short runs to keep LtMatt amused with my lack of ability).

Kaap im happy to take you and Scotty under my wing. Make you commanders of the Battlefield. One day you both may become as 'pro' as dg. :cool:

You missed OcUK's food and drink special.

Zeed · 11 Oct 2013 at 22:15

Now that must have been interesting conversation we missed

Nightglow · 11 Oct 2013 at 22:15

Wow!

Must a record, so many deleted posts in one thread...

DeathofRats · 11 Oct 2013 at 22:22

Maybe it was just poor grammar and/or spelling and Jokester was feeling a little sensitive. ;-)

Uncle Petey · 11 Oct 2013 at 22:23

It was just an OT conversation about what goes with steak if you must know

Jokester · 11 Oct 2013 at 22:24
