A screenshot of F.E.A.R pc game in the 800x600 screenshot thread back in 2005. Wow.

OBR have, apparently, benchmarked the new Richland A10-6800k;

Looks to be ~12% improvement on the graphics side of the deal, ~2% on processing.

I'll be getting one, as long as there's a half decent m-itx board to pair it with by then (I'm banking on Gigabyte's soon-to-be-released effort to do the business)

I didn't ever get one in the end

No idea. I can't search pre-nuke.

This. And even post-nuke, there's a lot of stuff missing because we used to prune (delete) old threads.

Best option would be to buy a fan controller. I just ordered the Vantec Nexus NXP-201. Unfortunatley OC don't stock it anymore, but you can get it at NO COMPETITORS. READ THE FAQ - Rilot. Look under cooling, then fan controllers

Brilliant. 18th Jan 2006.

Is that why I swear my postcount is going backwards?

My post anticipated game of 2006 - UT 2007 apparently. I did enjoy it once it came out to be fair

I'm surprised at how not awful it is. I was cringing when I searched, as I was such (many would say still am) an absolutely unbearable brat when I was a younger. I did briefly consider deleting swathes of my posts but I figured I might as well just own it

Mine only goes back as far as 2006

My earliest posts got deleted iirc (for violating rules I wasn't aware of at the time as a rusty but too-hasty newbie). Though I have saved (prepost logged) copies.

Me being hyped about Battlefield 2 coming out, and complaining about Battlefield Vietnam.

After much searching I still hadn't got out of 2019 never mind anywhere close to 2006.

I remember re-signing on once before pre-nuke.

Coolink Fans IMO are the best fans I have ever owned.

Quieter than amber series and shift just as much air, they are cheap and come with a 4 pin - 3 pin converter and also a PCI backing plate which has a speed controller.

My first post was to tell everyone I though Coolink fans were great - posted in September 2006, 8 months after joining the forums.

My very first post got me suspended for 2 days
My second post got me suspended for a week
I went up to see Spie who asked me what I'd posted and he laughed saying you can't say the name Maplin but nobody actually told me on either suspension what I'd done

My post was something like "I'm after a cable for my motherboard and both OCUK & Maplin don't sell it".

Top right, search by your name, then when it loads the most recent 25 pages of results, click 'Search After' and keep going until it get to no more results, click back and choose the final page.

I just spent some time doing that...and it doesn't go back far enough. Whatever my first post was, it's lost to the mists of time. Probably a "spec me" post, probably something to do with an Athlon.
