....My 560ti has run its course and its time to upgrade to 4 gig of vRam.

WOW my desktop has 2 560ti's in sli. My current laptop destroys it though so it hasn't been powered on for about 2yrs now.

Hopefully next year i can save enough to upgrade it and water cool it.

How often does Portal 2 go on sale? I know it was $4.99 during the Summer Sale, but haven't kept up with it. I'm thinking about getting it, but $8 on console used looks better than $19.99 on steam.

Re: OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

It was $3.99 during the Winter sale. Next time will probably be the Summer sale but it could go on sale at any time between now and then technically. If you add it to your wishlist you'll get a notification when it does. If you use Enhanced Steam with your browser you'll be able to see where it's on sale anywhere.

Re: OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

I don't think a video card should ever cost as much as the rig itself.

I NEED to know how you guys gather all these funds to just upgrade these things on the fly like it seems like.

It's called hustling Dre. Lol!

I got lucky, I was able to return my 970 to Newegg which I bought back in September last month due to the 970 fiasco with NVIDIA. I took the funds from that and the manager at Newegg gave me a discount on a 980 so it cost me another $140 which was worth it to me.

This is my latest system, a powerhouse in a shoebox build.

I just snagged it. What time/days do you usually play?

I'm usually online from 8pm - 11pm HST (I think its a 6 hr difference from EST).

Like Phobia, I love Arma! I recently started playing it and already have over 30 hrs in. I highly recommend everyone new to the game plays through the bootcamp scenario and VR training. It will give you a very good introduction to the game. And remember...this isn't CoD or Battlefield.

Awesome!

I play after work most days, 6pm central to 9 or 10.

I have my own Teamspeak server we can get on. PM me for password.

I'm also on the 7th Cav Teamspeak server a lot. Yet again PM me for password.

Lastly, the server you will find me on almost exclusively unless we are running our own private coop missions.

Finished bootcamp this evening. Once I figured out how to pull my compass and figure out my sights, I was off. Been over 20 yrs since I played a shooter with keyboard and controller, so I'm learning all over. Can already tell I am going to dig this game.

Would you guys say this is one of the more demanding games on Steam now? Trying to gauge the performance of the Alpha as it run this very well on high settings.
