  1. Good thing they limited the Chiron to 261mph, wouldn't want people going faster than that on public roads. :p I'm most interested in the Fiesta out of everything so far tbh. The 911R is sold out already and no mortal will ever get their hands on the Bugatti.
  2. It keeps crumbling for the New Top Gear. The new season has been postponed for another two weeks and it has been shortened from 8 to 6 episodes. Additionally, there is apparently arguing going on between Matt LeBlanc and Chris Evans who is seemingly quite the control freak.
  3. Then you should definitely go for the 6600K, overclocking can squeeze quite a bit of extra usable time out of your system in a few years. Just remember if you do that it doesn't come with a cooler so you'd need to get one of those as well.
  4. Then by all means go ahead. I'm not convinced the big cost will be worth it for gaming but the productivity department should see a big bump. If you're interested in overclocking at all go for the 6600K with Z170 motherboard and that option will be open to you in a few years time.
  5. Why do you want to upgrade your CPU first of all? Do you feel your current one can't keep up? You'll gain some performance but I'm not sure the cost of a new CPU, motherboard and RAM would be worth it. You might be better off trying to find a used i5 or i7 that fits your current motherboard.
  6. Then by all means go for another one. :p
  7. Pretty bang on actually. :p EVGA 650 W GQ Series ATX Modular Power Supply with Active PFC: Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories EVGA SuperNova G2 550 W Gold Fully Modular Power Supply Unit: Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories Fractal Design 550 W Edison M Power Supply Unit - Black: Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories Corsair CP-9020090-UK RM550X 550 W ATX/EPS Fully Modular Power Supply Unit: Amazon.co.uk: Computers Accessories 1) If it is faulty then what's to stop a replacement from doing the same thing? If it is to blame it's obviously having trouble powering your system 2) The design is over 5 years old, it probably has diffciculty dealing with Intel's new powersaving CPU's 3) A quality replacement could last longer than the rest of the PC and power a replacement computer in a few years to come
  8. I saw this, I like it but I don't want to hope for too much as it's been rumored before and I feel it would be a strange move on Microsoft's part to release one of their strongest exclusives like that. And the fact that all PC players would be able to play it...?
  9. Cool, is it hooked up to the GTX 980 rig that's on your profile? I can imagine it takes some horsepower to game at that resolution.
  10. Yeah I think what I think is that if it wants to compete with the Porsches it's got some massive shoes to fill. Let's hope it doesn't disappoint, I like small cars like this.
  11. The Clio RS has a 1.6, no? This is a further developed version of that engine, supposedly 250bhp in the base version and 300bhp in a performance version. It looks good and seems like good fun but the price is speculated to be around the same as for the Porsche 718 and that just feels like ouch, too much money in my mind but I'm not really sure why.
  12. That's wide! Looks good, is it 3440x1440? What made you go for the 21:9 format? Do you do gaming and/or more production on it?
  13. 200% not what I expected, that's a really nice car :eek: *jealous*
  14. The recommended specs are laughable :rofl2: Partly because of their sheer ridiculousness and partly because "AMD equivalent" to the i7-4790K? Good luck finding one. :cheeky:
  15. Well it makes sense. The BBC must know they couldn't keep going like before so they'd take the opportunity to renew the show.
  16. I won't update this too often but I take more pictures than I thought so then I thought "why not upload them to the internet, that's always a good idea" :nods: I'm not as good at taking pictures as some other people here but you'll have to live with that if you enter this thread. :p Anyhoo:
  17. It's on sale here as well. :hmmm: To be perfectly honest (and a bit whiney) though, that's still twice as much as any DLC should be in my mind.
  18. I think they were added as the long jump I'm talking about takes place on a massive Wild-Run-orange ramp plopped down in the middle of the woods. If they at least made Bronze possible for us the unmentionables then fine but that you can't complete the game anymore without buying the whole expansion just drives me mad.
  19. It seemed easy enough to earn a Bronze in the challenge I posted above so I thought "mabe Ubisoft realized not everyone will have the expansion" and made at least Bronze obtainable without it. I was wrong though, I found Long Jump #3 today and even getting a Bronze on that skill seems impossible without a Drag car.
  20. Happy birthday, I hope you've had a good day despite the things that have happened recently. :birthday:
  21. Okay... Not sure if I feel anything at all about that. I like him, or at least the things he did for TG before but doesn't change anything for me.
  22. Yeah maybe if it was like half the price of what it is, but €25 is more than I paid for the game to begin with. Well that sucks. I wanted to win Platinum on all the skill challenges but the fact they are forcing me to basically buy the game again to do so instantly drained almost all the energy I had for it. :(
  23. Excuse me have they now made the expansion pack mandatory in order to complete certain things in the game or am I missing something obvious here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMuVZVzePsg This is Speed Skill 120 in downtown Miami somewhere, is a drag car 100% necessary in order to win anything more than bronze on this one? I don't see how I could possibly be going any faster than I was.
  24. I just turned 8 on here and I still remember the day I signed up. I keep thinking of what my life was like back then and how much has happened since, it's scary. Thanks Diablo and everyone else for defining what this place is. :cheers:
