The UK Growers Thread!

[unlucky]

I'm fed up of this sqabbling tbh. If people have issues and they're not resolved after a few posts, gtfo and fight it out elsewhere. Noone wants to read all this utter bullshit. You have done nothing but disrupt this thread and cause arguments from what i've seen. It obviously is getting to you because you don't seem to be able to not reply, so fucks sake, either have an argument through PM's or the Live chat, or just hold your tongue and let things slide. This thread is known for it's cheeky and sometimes insulting banter, that is to say calling someone a cum bucket, not to read 10 pages of arguing every time i log on. I am no angel myself but i known when enough is enough and that it is now simply disrupting a thread and annoying eveyone no matter the intentions or whether i'm in the right etc.

Don't make me accept the modship offered to me and start enforcing the rules on you guys a handful of posts, cool cool, page after page after page after page of bitching and it achieves nothing but pissing off all of the people who have nothing to do with it or care either way.

And hint. There is an edit button, there is no need to post multiple times in rapid succession.

no thanks i will post and say what ever i want at any old time as its the way some of the know it all wanna beeeeeeee`s roll on here...if thay wanna stop then cool so will i,but till that day...let the good trolls roll

I'd personally swap the 3870's out on a temporary basis even if just for efficiecy reasons, that looks like a 1kw supply wihtout reading anything, those cards are hogs. Only reason i'd consider upgrading to a newer socket (currently s775 ddr2) would be for the cheap ddr3 prices and for the power efficiency, my Q6600 B3 uses quite a lot in coparisson to what can be bought theses days. Although personally i'd just love to buy a itx board and a good sata controller for a big file server, and then keep a small shuttle as my main rig.

Nearly, it's an Enermax Galaxy 850w TTT. Good eye mate.
They are actually not bad less than 120w each maxed.
If I upgrade the socket then I'm better off building a whole new rig, that's not likely for another 2 years or so yet. I built this when all the parts were brand new about 4 years ago, the 3870's I had on pre-order and they'd been on retail sale for only 3 days when I got them (fucking sods law the 8800GT came out 2 week later, but I wanted ATI anyway) and I paid £165 a piece for them then the coolers cost another £35 each. I've got about £800 in this (£400 just in the graphics), it's been through 3 motherboards (I have a discontinued Asus board, the only one in the world at the time that gave full 16x16 PCI-E bandwith to both cards) in the 4 years.

If I get hold of the 95w Phenom x4 that fits this socket to replace the Athlon 64 x2 6400+ that I have and replace the cards with something like the 6890's I'm good for a while. The rest of the rig is fine. I don't really need DDR3 as the Black Dragon is the fastest 800mhz DDR2 available and their isn't a game out yet that utilises it all or even makes it sweat. At the time I built this Specifically to play Crysis which it does and they've yet to give us something even close!

Ignorance is bliss i say, troll away but without any reply's who you going to annoy?

If you're just here to troll as you appear to indicate then i don't think you'll remain here for long Unlucky Why not try getting on with people instead of pissing everyone off.

I'm pretty much the same Yorky, althouhg when i bought my present computers they were mid of the range at the time and i just watercooled and clcoked em to shit. Before that i used to have to have the latest and greatest It was a complete addiction, me and my dorm mate were both geeks and we'd spend half our time benchmarking and tweaking and buying this and that just to oust each other from the top spot by a couple of points I once sunk almost £800 into a pair of 7800gtx's for my SN26P sli shuttle, and then got bored so spent about £600 watercooling the thing with two seperate loops all fully contained. That was a really fun challenge ha to be said, money aside. You say good eye, i simply noted that it was fucking massive Like you say, there is no justification these days in upgrading, nothing requires the power companies are making availbale, that i think is why the computer modding and on the whole the custom pc scene has nearly become extinct, those with the know realised there was fuck all pint anymore, i remember "back in the day" when i HAD to upgrade to the greatest so i could play doom 3, simply not the case any more, any shit will do.

I'm getting pretty bored with it now. I don't often call by and when I do pop my head round the door I only really talk if I've got something to say or if something in particular catches my eye.
This Pleb is really starting to test my patience though, there's only so long I can let a blatant "Billy Bullshitter" slide before they're are just given it straight and somebody's close to getting clamped!

Doom 3, don't even get me started! My first comp had a shitty ATI card (I don't remember what but I know it only had 4 pixel shaders!) so I went and shelled out £120 on 6600GT and the only card that was faster at the time was a 6800GT and they couldn't get hold of one. I took the 6600 home fitted it, overclocked it by about 30% and It STILL only ran DOOM 3 at 30-40fps!

@ ttt i do feel your kind words will be as unwelcomed as my pinocchio joke back few pages haha. i tried being nice to the same person n offer lil advise on not winding peeps up n got it chucked back in my face with insults.
i like a banter like the rest but seeing good growers being slated by a nobody was lil to much to take even by my standards.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

The Peb in my previous post SHOULD read Pleb but the intelligent people would get it anyway.

If it's advice you want then your posting in the wrong thread, you need to be in Newbie Central or Grow Room Design & Setup.

Random people don't ask for help here, they go to Newbie Central or Grow Room Design & Setup.
The only people asking for help in this thread would be friends asking other friends. A bit like "eya mate, give us a hand with this".

 

[unlucky]

eya mate give me a hand with this condensation problem
