    Computer Store / tech store thread

    If you have checked the previous posts and other threads, I think fluidtek's prices are the bomb. www.fluidtek.com.au/webcontent46.htm It constantly updates. And yes, they will beat any genuine prices, but I doubt they need to anyway.

    Computer Store / tech store thread

    Hmm.. get some computer techie friends and go computer shopping some day. My friends and I are going to the computer fair on the 16th Nov. 2 of my friends are also clueless about computers, but if you go with your friends, they can teach you a lot as you go along. Computer magazines also help...

    where to buy good computer system?

    t-i-m-m-y, one of those video cards alone would cost 700 bucks. Please think realistically. That's half the cost of her goddamned machine! Look, fantasia, even a Radeon 9600XT could handle Doom 3 very well. And guess what? It's 1/3 of the price of those high end useless gfx cards with a ton...

    where to buy good computer system?

    Generic DDRs are ~120, Geil branded ram at 400mhz are only $145. Forking out 145 on performance ram is very much worth it. Don't even bother considering higher speed ram. The performance increase is negligible. Depends on your budget. You can get a 17" LCD at fluidtek from 400-500. 19" CRTs...

    Installing hardware

    Seagate 7200.7 Sata and WD something something Sata are both in the 180's range. Sata HDDs aren't that expensive anymore, and if I have 20 bucks floating around, I'd go for a Sata just for the hell of it! Edit: both are 200gb

    where to buy good computer system?

    My dear God... she most definitely does NOT need a bloody 6800 ultra. Not even I would get that thing. Nope, a Radeon 9600SE is good enough for all her gaming needs. If you say the 9600 is gay, you're wrong. I have a GF4 MX440 and it can run uh... nearly everything. Considering the 9600 is three...

    where to buy good computer system?

    Before I was sure I was going to get a computer, my computer hardware knowledge dated back to the time of GeForce 4 MX 440's and AMD Athlon XP1800+'s Now since I am getting a new computer, I've done my research and have updated my comp knowledge quite a bit. After doing this research, I found...

    Decent jobs, Decent pay

    Tutoring is by far the best. I'm doing piano tutoring after I finish my gayassed exams. ~20-25 bucks an hour If you can't do that, then tutor year 10s or something in maths =/

    Presents for your significant other

    I would say getting something that he's really wanted to get for a while. For example, if he was getting a new computer (separate parts), you could buy a nice set of speakers for him before he buys it. I think it will have a huge effect. Basically, it's when he needs something and you get it...

    where to buy good computer system?

    I had a look at secret.com.au... its prices are still more expensive than fluidtek's There's like a $10 difference between the Hard disks, $50 between the CPUs, $30 between the DVD burners... much more on video cards. I could go on forever. Have a look at...

    too late to get a PS2?

    My friend's getting the puny PS2 coz it's so cute. It's small and it also has a built-in ethernet port which means you can save on that. It's only 240 bucks at Kmart or something, which isn't too bad. I would get a PS2 to play FFX and X2... actually, all of FF :D... if I had the money :( I...

    Bias in data collection

    Alright this is a stupid question. What on earth is bias in data collection? I've looked through my book and it's like nowhere. I think this is in TPS

    Views on warez sites

    German warez sites are gay. They claim to have every single game, crack, and hack out. They even claim they have games that aren't even out yet, hacks that can kill anyone instantly by pressing "P" and other stupid things. Along with that, the site is sponsored by a ton of ugly pornsites and...

    Networking/whatever it's called

    Yeah, I just read some reviews on it... seems a bit unnecessary for me though. Plus I'm only using it for the net, no need to 'swap files' as my friend said.

    help with spyware-type thingy

    You can see what programs are doing to your computer by going to start, run, msconfig. Clicking the startup tab will give you some suss programs and you can track them down in regedit, and delete their entries. It won't get all of them, but I've done that and the gay things have stopped for me.
