So there's been some pretty sweet internet speed developments here in Amsterdam the past months. I'm currently on a 24/2 cable connection, but this street is about to be hooked up to fiber.The most common residential fiber package offered is a 20/20 line for between 30 and 40 euros a month, with 50/50 and 100/100 also available, though at a steeper price.In response the cable company is now upgrading customers' modems (to DOCSIS 3.0 models) if they chose, which would allow for 60 and 120Mbps downspeeds. The 60Mpbs line would cost the same as my current subscription, whereas the 120Mpbs package is supposedly going to be around 85 euros a month. Neither have symmetric upload like fiber does though. Choices, choices!

    Crysis / Crysis WARHEAD Menz

    Been working on a good Optimized 'Very High/Enthusiast' config for Crysis for a little while now and well I think I finally got an excellent config. Did testing in one of the icy levels to see if I could improve performance there with little cost to the visuals. And got something that is very much playable, hell it performs pretty much the same as running on the Gamer setting.

    Decided on a name change, needed a better name and gave it a version number now. So you can easily tell if I make a revision to it.
