I started reading the book again, then had to check I was reading the right book. What amazes me is that they make so few episodes. Compare GoT to series like Arrow, The Flash, Person of Interest, all of which manage 23 episodes, then look at how much of the story gets left out of Game Of Thrones.
Best way I've found is to just see it as another story. I guess its one way to ensure continued book sales lol

Racing Sims / F1 2015 season
May 22, 2015, 01:27:24 PM
All the fancy aerodynamics that make it nigh on impossible for them to overtake each other, and they are 8 seconds slower? F1 really isn't heading in the right direction is it? :(

Technology Section / GPU Upgrade
March 26, 2015, 12:27:18 PM
I've had both AMD and Nvidia. The only main reason I went with Nvidia this time is that my new mobo only supports SLi (Nvidia) and not Crossfire (AMD), if ever I decide I want a second gpu

Quote from: Obsydian;396926If you want to see the approx performance of the relevant GPUs, I'd recommend taking a look at this site:
http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

Your GTX460 is listed with a 3D index of 2660.
A GTX770 has an index of 6147.
A GTX970 has an index of 8629.

if you're looking for a cheap card, I have a GTX660 (index of 4118) spare following a recent upgrade, and I'm looking for £120?  It should be able to play BF on ultra no problem.
I've used that site, along with the "PC Gamer 'best bang for buck' budget PC build" each time I've upgraded, well recommended. Last year I payed about £250 for an Asus 2gb GTX770 off Amazon, which is now £218. PC gamer are suggesting the GTX960 now, with falls slightly short of the 770 on the benchmark list, but is £25 cheaper at £193.
I'm well pleased with my 770, but obviously you may be able to find something better at a similar cost. Good luck...you can't beat that 'Ultra' feeling ;)

ARMA / Mounting and redistributing ammo ?
March 23, 2015, 11:43:33 AM
Sounds good. I fell into the old FPS habit of reloading after a short volley, then ended up with a lot of clips with about 5 or 6 bullets left. I should really learn not to reload needlessly

Thanks for the game all, I really enjoyed that. Will see you all next Sunday for sure.
Have a good trip Ben..have fun!

I can do that. If I have a set day to aim for, it makes it easier to plan. Tonight I'm playing ARMA, so will see you on Tuesday, if only on TS seeing as I don't even know where you guys are in the galaxy!

ARMA / ARMA Server Down for Update
March 21, 2015, 12:40:16 PM
I got my ARMA set up again. Most of what I removed from the addons folder has put itself back in again. It must be related to the Zeus addon.
Anyway, the main thing is I'm ready to go

That's one hell of a flight-stick. Is it one of those Cesna ones? I dunno its proper name, just its a replica of the light aircraft controls.
Good set up though. You can hide it all when family visit and pretend you're a grown up lol

ARMA / Boot Camp
March 18, 2015, 05:43:45 PM
Nice one guys, I'm +2 GMT so I'd guess you're on about 8-9GMT? I'll play a bit of ESO while you all catch up, and jump on TS. We can take it from there if you like.

ARMA / Boot Camp
March 18, 2015, 05:34:44 PM
Gimme a time and date and I'll be up for joining in on a boot camp, when you do Froge. Either PM me or just post here, and I'll be there! I do love the look and 'simness' of ARMA, but like Froge said, it is pretty tough for a newcomer.
