Sorry, I have sigs disabled at work.

900W should be plenty of power.

thank u mate

It is really an 840W unit but you should be ok. I reckon you would even be ok with a 750W unit but better safe than sorry!

Nice man, good song.

Hope you get to 50k signs.

I know its because of PR, but gareth must be blown away right now :-)

Thanks to those companies involved, and just glad you will be able to play the game!

ok thats great. thanks mate

i remember reading before Tagan and afew review sites said this psu can handle up to 1000w total power if set to turbo.

does that sound right?

This thread is so happy

It's really nice to see responses from all parts of the gamer community (developers, publishers, the press, retailers and gamers) and I reckon the impact from this will help so many more people enjoy gaming going forward.

Great news about AMD and the card, Gareth. The power of that plus your 6950 will give amazing frame rates.

SkeeterUK · 16 Feb 2011 at 14:20

Gibbo (or other dons) can we get a OcUK mug sent to Gareth. I know their uber rare and for staff only usually but go on you know it makes sense.

crysis / warhead as full remapping . so crysis 2 better have it, or i'll send another email,

You've done the chin thing though so if it comes to it make a video of you playing with your nads, the internet will explode then!

Gz on the success though ^^
