Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Jan 21, 2008 6:00pm PSTSo... saw Cloverfield. Pretty sure they could have had the camera shake a bit less and
still get the point across. I understand the point of getting that feeling across and all
that but considering there were about a half dozen people out in the halls feeling sick
I'm probably not alone with that feeling. Still enjoyed it.

Lastly, I actually updated my bios on my motherboard without any major problems! It's a
miracle! I wonder if stuff like ESA
will ever get any traction. Probably in another decade.

Geoff Keighley was asked to be on FOX News to discuss the Mass Effect sex "controversy" and he countered their silliness with a nice helping of actual, factual information about the game.
Unfortunately then it goes on to a panel who doesn't have a clue what they're talking about, but hey, at least he was able to get in there for a little bit.

'cause they didn't send anything to me, nor did they specify *where* I had to send my instruments to.
But...they have taken a $125 hold on my funds for each instrument I had to send back.

Now I'm having a bit of buyers remorese. The gigabyte motherboard says it supports the 8400 but under bios F8a. F8a only came out in mid december. What are the odds that newegg will have a motherboard with the most recent bios? What will happen if its shipped with an earlier bios? Now in my past experience if a motherboard didn't support a cpu, it would just report it wrong but still boot. Anyone know if this is likely the case or will I have a non-booting system and thus boned since I don't have a cpu to put in the motherboard and flash the bios?

Dantastic and I played our 3 games tonight. He took 2 out of 3 from me dammit! But the one I did win I shut his ass out! \m/ Good games though, except the third one where he killed me. :(
The rest of you need to start playing! Dantastic is in first and I'm in second now in the league standings. he's 4-2 and I'm 3-3.

I have a mobo with AM2 HT2000. Currently there is a 4200+ 2.2 dual core in there with 3 Gb DDR2 6xx ram, and an 8800 GT 512 Superclocked. Vista is showing me with a 5.9 rating in everything but my CPU which is a 5.0... which makes my whole system 5.0. I currently run Crysis on high 1440x900 around 25 fps with dips to around 14 or so. I'd like to upgrade my CPU but everyone is telling me all the compatable CPUs suck (x2 6400+ 3.2, Phenom quad, etc) and that I should just get a new mobo and a C2D. Thing is I can get a 6400+ for $160 and a new mobo and C2D would be alot more (not to mention the problems with trying to transfer vista). Is it worth it to upgrade to a 6400+ or the like or should I just wait until I'm willing to get a new mobo (many months at least) and switch to Intel?
Thanks a bunch!
