  1. Yeah. Should've ordered that CX500 and be done with it... or do you recommend anything better?
  2. Dude... I am reading some reviews and in one test the PSU burnt out. Dear God. And FYI, it is Partis, not Part;s althought it is like that on the unit. :lol: I am taking it back to the shop on Friday.
  3. Ok, so I went to the shop yesterday to order a new PSU and the dude there sold me this one. I told him the computer specs, that I had the Corsair CX500 in mind, etc., and he just handed me this one. He said it's good enough for me... ... It might be, but it doesn't work.
  4. Yeah, they're done. 61k miles on them (58k on run-crap tires). It's already kinda low from factory (lower than other M Sport E91s, which is weird) and actually don't want to lower it at all but the shocks alone cost just €90 less so went #yolo and got the B12 kit. :lol: Bought KW coilovers for the E82 this summer because... it was too high :p and because the 1 Series had crappy shocks in general. It drives much better now, although not perfect. M3 bushings next!
  5. Core 2 Quad 2.6 GHz 4 GB DDR2 RAM (or DDR3, I can't remember) GTX 260 896MB 500GB HDD Samsung 17" monitor if that matters I cancelled the order actually due to the fact my mom took the car and therefore I did not have anything to drive there (the shop, half an hour away, closes at 6PM). I'm going to the local town shop tomorrow morning to order something better then.
  6. Dad needs it as soon as possible. :( Guess a 500W one is not enough for the pc, is it? Gainward says my GPU needs 550W. --- Post Updated --- Found a Corsair CX500 - even though it is only a 500W PSU instead of the old 550W, the specs are the same or better. I've read that 12V rails are important as they power the CPU & GPU. CX500 has 38A on the 12V rails while the old Fortron PSU has 36A. It is cheaper, too. Now that I have got my lovely laptop, the PC will not be used for gaming anymore. Just normal work & Internet stuff.
  7. Looks like it's done its job; there's nothing I could do to it (removed the grid to see it the fan is loose). Google says it's made by Fortron. There are no 550W PSUs available in local shops. >.<
  8. You spend too much time playing games or you're posting too many shots. Maybe both. Or maybe neither. :cheeky:
  9. We have one desktop only so that's not an option unfortunately.
  10. Finally someone replied. It's not dusty at all; nothing that could stop the fans. I'll take a detailed look at in the morning, there are some screws even so I'll try to disassemble it and hopefully I won't screw up more things. It is 5 years old, I believe. Greenpower-something 550W.
  11. they should make the maps more authentic; roads in FH2 are as wide as three-lane highways
  12. Just turned the old girl on and this happened! It's coming from the PSU (I banged it and the sound changed). Does this mean it's ded? It doesn't smell or anything. :panic2: Vid
  13. GTA V -40%??????? ffs should've waited... I haven't played it at all since I got it.
  14. Hold on, hold on, guys. He's older than me? :eek: Thought you were 19 as well, Hassan!
  15. Myk +1, bday post on fleek Hassan, dude, Happy Birthday. I wish you all the best, all the health and wealth. And boobs, of course. :kiss: :birthday::birthday: :cheers:
  16. That's what E-gen BMW's without Comfort Access had - and it's still better than turning the keys (the old way). Seriously don't know what's wrong with that. You need to put the key somewhere and why not in a dedicated key slot. In new models, you don't use the key to start the engine even if the car does not have Comfort Access. Story: My sister's husband owns a BMW with CA. He got out of the car to talk to someone with the engine and AC running. After that he forgot that the car was on, locked the car and went to work. Think he locked it with the key. Several hours later he came back to the car - engine running, fuel almost gone, AC blasting...
