Spec me a simple gaming machine (£250)

[hyperst]

i left my job as i was getting underpaid and have since become self employed working from home. i didnt say it would out perform a 360 or ps3. i just dont like using controllers and i want win XP.

also i didnt say i was going to use anything from this old dell pc.

not that it matters anymore, 5 numbers and the bonus won me 150k saturday.

have a nice day.

... a geforce graphix cards (had problems with ati, not going to go into it but alweays found geforce more compatible for a NOVICE like me)

Like? Any ATI card I've had has been easy as pie... And I've had a few. There is a lot of people out there with that opinion, much like people who blast AMD chips. Odd really, ATI/AMD should be your mfr of choice with such a small budget

How did you become a Fire Fighter HAz?

 

[HAz]

How did you become a Fire Fighter HAz?

Passed my application
passed physical
passed medical
passed interview
passed all the training courses

My heart was in the job and ive always wanted to do it!
It helps to have a good sense of humour and be easy to get on with!
Also being physical fit and switched on helps a lot.

Were u generally interested in how one gets into such job, or were u taking the ****?

 

[Nate Silvers]

I'm generally interested Always wondered. It's a very good job I wish I was one. Did you just walk in and pickup an application?

 

[HAz]

I rang my local head office and asked for an application form. Ring up and ask for one they may be taking on retained which most stations are in this country. Its a good job but can take up your life, i think of it as more of an inconvenient hobby at times.

 

[Nate Silvers]

Hey thanks I'll ring them up, take up your life? Is that from callouts. It's better than working every fortnight that's for sure.

Are you looking for Retained or Wholetime?

 

[d_brennen]

Don't be silly that's far to slow for the OP. He wants an i7 and an Asus Mars. For £250. Dispite winning £150k. Glad the admins are hot on these forums
