Wow, I didn't make my first million gp for 3 months. You definitely are getting there quickly! Good luck! You can add me too if you want. I would say I am a pretty helpful guy. :)

If you get 7 min by not boosting for skill doors, it is still ok, but not too great.
-
Just try applying and see. :P
-
I will keep it in mind. Thanks.

It really depends. If you think you are experienced enough to survive better with hood, then unbind it and bind plate. However, Plate should allow you to survive better if you utilize side-stepping than a hood can, since it allows for more mess-ups.
-
Yes, lower is better.

To save time and confusion I'll make this explanation as quick and simple as possible. I play another small online game, and there was a guy on there who was known to occasionally DDoS people for no apparent reason. About a week ago he was banned from the game and somehow got a hold of a lot of people's IP addresses... and I think one of them might have been me. Although he is a known DDoSer, he's also known for not being able to do it on a large scale. Essentially his attacks cut whatever your system normally runs at in half (or so I've heard).
Every once in a while I http://www.speedtest.net my connection just out of curiosity, but I know that my speeds 2 or 3 weeks ago were around 6 ms Ping / 27-29 mb Download / 3-5 mb Upload. Suddenly overnight my connections had slowed extremely! Just before I made this topic these were my results:
Ping is at 10ms, which is low since it's been around the 15ms mark. My download speeds stay in the 18mb - 23mb range (which is decent, but not what I'm used to); my Upload speed has been beating with a stick... .45mb? I upload YouTube videos on occasion, and this is probably the most annoying thing for me. I called my ISP but those idiots never know what's going on. All they told me was it looked fine from there end & to try the "unplug router, wait 5 minutes, plug back in" method.
Help? Suggestions? I haven't ran anything out of the ordinary, and I've had this new internet installed since last August with no dips in any speeds. I'm not even sure if I'm being DDoSed... but something is obviously different.
You are not being ddosed. :) Also, 10ms is better. :)

I have decided not to get one. There is no point in me getting one since there is no way for me to test them out. I can't be bothered buying one, and shipping it back if I don't like it; too much hassle. I will stick to my regular gaming keyboard and buy a soft wrist rest for it.

Does it have the ps/2 key rollover? What cherry mx is it?
-
MMOs, including RS, are CPU-intensive, but yes, most slow downs are due to RAM.
I do have 8 GB of RAM, at least I know thats not the problem. However, I have been playing around with screen sizes and different settings in downloadable version, I was able to get fps up a lil bit but not as much I want to. It is manageable for now.
Have you tried DirectX? I currently use it and my fps is around 20 compared to 5 with Software mode.

23$ more but it's a really quality product and you said you had 50$ left over from your previous build anyway.
I spent $25 on the fan controller+$13 on the Scythe Fan so I had $12 left from that. Then, I removed the Sidewinder x4 and one other thing and had the total at $1695, so I have $105 left, give or take $5.
EDIT2: Yep, it is $105, give or take $5 cuz I can find loose change in my house somewhere. :P

Hey everyone.
I decided to get a Mechanical Keyboard. My budget is $105.
Here are my preferences:
Cherry MX Black, Brown, or Red, or nonclicky ALPS.
6-key rollover with USB and 104-key with PS/2 (so yes, I want one that has PS/2 and USB)
Nice Wrist Pad
LED is a plus but not required to me anymore (I will just have to get used to typing in the dark
)Thanks everyone!

It will be in your best interest to make the most out of the BXPW, which means if you want the fastest route, the Scroll of Efficiency is a must.
-
You have been warned. It is not hard to return it.
-
It doesn't make a difference?

You can get 1.5V 1600MHz RAM for $40, a cool $10 saved. Upgrade to Caviar black, not blue. I'd get that extra 0.5" on your monitor too. Check if the 212Evo comes with thermal paste pre-applied - I believe it does and it's not bad quality. Also - why the controller? A mouse is a lot better for things like FPS games.
Other than that, fantastic!
I have the G400 in my wishlist and my controller can help in the racing games. Wouldn't 1.25v be safer to overclock with?
I have picked out the NZXT fan controller and one Scythe fan. I will consider your mouse suggestions I guess :P.
-
Nvm, solved. Gonna get a fan controller and push/pull fans.

Well, I have completed my build planning and have $50 left. I have no use for the $, so saving it is not something I want to do. What else should I buy?
Here is my build so far:
http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=13328589
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0354589
I have also spent $156 on games, so that's how I have $50 left to spend.
Any help is appreciated.

Return the PSU, and buy a RELIABLE PSU from brands like Corsair, Antec, XFX, Seasonic, and PC Power and Cooling.
-
Get the Antec Earthwatts 750W. It is a much better brand and only $20 more.
-
What type of router do you have?
-
This means the refresh rate is set too low. Try upping it if possible.
-
Your build is fantastic! You should be happy with it for years to come! :)
The non-adventures of Spimuncular! :D
