My Retinas got burned. And I outdated the PS3 and 360. Bugger.

Do you ever post without hyping something?

I played Battlefield 3 on absolute max on 3 monitors last night. It looks great...but there are at least 10 Wii games I found more fun and I'd rather play than Battlefield 3...in all their SD glory.

Kind of the reason I cheapened out with a single 6850 HD and went for a Phenom II X4 965 and oc'd it to 4ghz. Emulators. PCSX2, Dolphin - all the good stuff in HD and with a good dose of AA. Consoles have the generally far far far more fun games, or at least I think so. The games, on their original hardware, are just so incredibly jagged.

Thats what I like to hear. :)

Off topic...when you overclocked it, did you increase FSB frequency or just the multiplier. I actually had the x4 955 and I had it at 4 ghz as well using only the multiplyer. It didn't really help much. However when I brought the multiplyer to stock and increased the FSB frequency, it helped a lot more despite only being able to get up to 3.8 ghz on the CPU. Higher memory controller and ram speed helped me run games better than CPU speed alone.

Multi. only. Used the PCSX2 "FFX-2 metric" (if it doesn't stutter - you will manage to emu pretty much ANY PS2 game) - at stock, its cinematics stuttered a little, at 4ghz, it's a constant 50fps (my game is a PAL one). No other games stutter, either (currently playing SMT: Nocturne on it, using my PS3 controller ;) ). Sonic Colors and MKWii are also perfect.

The board is a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3, and the cooler a Mugen 2 Rev.b, for reference's sake.
