That RAM is pretty good looking IMO!

yea they look and feel great, i love the cold feel of metal, plus they have a nice weight to them, stuff always feels more quality when it has some weight to it

its like christmas all over again. i love opening up the packages and having a good sniff. it seems weird but i like the smell of the new parts. maybe i shouldnt tell people that but they do smell good.

The write speeds of the Force3 are higher which is useful for editing etc.

Something Else · 2 Mar 2012 at 20:14

right im going to order the force3 now then. 60gb should be enough for the os and anti virus shouldnt it? plus a bit spare for somthing else?

Something Else · 6 Mar 2012 at 22:09

i keep wanting to start installing parts into the case. im trying to resist but the temptation to put the psu in is becoming unbearable haha

stulid · 6 Mar 2012 at 22:15

you think it would be worth getting the new nividia or just stick with the one previously mentioned?
