I ordered my system back around December 12, 2009, but with the whole holiday buzz and some but I couldn't find the screenshots I took in any folders, searched program files and also my games in my documents didn't see any screenshots folder. System Configuration: Me and the ancient Dell Dimension 8200 that served me well till it died. Old Desk. Old Peripherals. There's the box, oh yeah if you must know I was in the middle of a workout when my computer came in, haha talk about rushing home. Beautiful packaging lol. I was overwhelmed. Definitely more proud in this picture. It's almost as big as me. Taking out the interior protection foam, and this image adds a firm foundation to the theory of beauty being within. Yeahhh.... my friend with the camera is no professional, but needless to say even the spectators approve lol you did a good job Digital Storm. Yeahhh... mess of wires, laziness + moving in a couple months = random assortment of wires. Lolz, yeahh about the box, this desk was not designed for beasts like mine, soo the box was a temporary upholder until I could get a board under there. Haha the would have flipped with the computer without support. Watching 300 on the blue-ray drive, installing MW2 on bottom screen while also installing Aion, haha multi-tasking you say? Not many good shots in the dark, my camera sucks and so do my photography skills. This is Lothar, if you see him run! He will wipe your group, possibly the worst tank ever. He was tanking with a greatsword until I asked what kind of stats he gets on his invisible shield, and the dude replied which one. Thought I'd put some ingame Aion pics up, frame rate with that game is amazing, I've hit over 550 fps but didn't take a screenshot at the time. I have my 3d rendering settings in the Ati config menu at max as well which makes my fps performance drop, but makes the quality soo much better. |

My cpu is overclocked to around 3.9 ghz soo for longevity I went liquid cooling, but as far as gpu cooling it helps but it isn't necessary and makes upgrades a little more difficult lol, and my gpu's stay nice and cool without it as is.

Very nice pics and congrats. Put mine pics to shame. iPhone camera is not that great. Will have to take better ones with a real camera. Very pleased with my Hailstorm so far.
