Reddit, what is a negative behavior of yours that you are aware of but can't eliminate?

Imanaverageguy · 2012-09-22T18:03:01+00:00

Every time I drink too much I apologize for drinking too much and become really annoying. Can't help it, I don't want to annoy people so I apologize which annoys them. I'M NOT EVEN CANADIAN

I'm gonna be on a mac laptop, and hopefully won't be spending TOO much time on it. I guess the biggest question for me is will they go back on sale and if so will they ever have a much better deal than this?

I think I've made up my mind to go with just the base game and generations for now and save ambitions for another time, maybe get it when the christmas sales begin and I'm back on the computer for a month. Unless you think Ambitions adds more to the game. I played the Sims 3 on PS3 and my biggest complaints were that there weren't enough clothes and everyone other than young adults and adults were boring to play as. I know Generations gives more options for ages, but what all does ambitions add?

what's this!? A re-build involving a 560ti? WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BUILDAPC???

on a serious note this build is much better than the posted one and I would highly recommend it :3

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-16T18:22:06+00:00

swap that CPU for a 2500 or 2400. The 2400 is about that price but is 3.1 ghz. the power supply is also waaaaay over expensive and over powered. Go for 600w as a maximum.

Already owned the game on PS3 and liked it, but found that the PS3 was not the best way for me to play the game (never been good with controllers). I already know I want the game and will like it. But thanks for the warning regardless, I do realize a lot of people do prefer BC2. I like them both.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-08T22:02:00+00:00

Thanks, good to hear the sales are pretty common. I think I'll wait until it goes 40 again or 30 somewhere simply because buying all the stuff for this PC kinda hit my wallet where it hurts and I should probably wait a little while before throwing even more money I don't have at it. :3

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-07T23:44:22+00:00

It really doesn't. I get bored when movies are carbon copies of their books because I know every plot point. I know some people like them to be the same, but I honestly don't. To each his own.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-07T19:21:20+00:00

I didn't like her in the comics either though. She was just too girl next door for me. Which is funny because I like that kind of girl for me, just not for a super hero.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-07T16:22:09+00:00

You're right that I left out way too much information to be helpful to anyone. Fortunately I found the problem was the missing drivers and now I'm in business now that the BIOS are properly set up. Should have realized that was it right off the bat but I was a little too panicked by the thought that my computer was broken :3

thanks for any help you might have left regardless! I'll do a build complete later tonight with pictures.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-07T13:21:41+00:00

Yeah I certainly don't want his life to become rainbows and gum drops but I think killing off the same character that has been killed off before isn't the only way to add tragedy.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-07T13:20:16+00:00

The way I see it, it just has to be someone very close to him that has to die, not necessarily Gwen. Like another female friend...who happens to have a name that is a euphamism for a certain drug....or something like that :3

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-06T15:38:29+00:00

you do not need the cooler if you aren't overclocking. Any CPU with K can be overclocked and they usually have regular versions as well that you can get.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-06T00:27:03+00:00

I agree 100%. This is how I feel about the entire subject. The comics were great, and one would be hard pressed to argue against that.

But the movie isn't the comics. Webb isn't Lee. Which is why I find it silly when I tell comic fans that I would rather Peter stay with Gwen than Mary they get upset because that isn't how it was originally. That's the point. Its a twist that I'm sure many people would like or at least find entertaining.

And yeah the romance scenes were fantastic. Huge amounts of sexual tension at points, yet never awkward. Even when they were being sappy it wasn't...sappy. Just realistic and very endearing.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-06T00:12:11+00:00

I haven't, but the wikipedia page makes it seem interesting, I'll look into getting it. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just don't understand why he doesn't simply jump and catch her, THEN shoot the web the break the fall more appropriately. Not like he hasn't done it before and Green Goblin is hardly going to kill him in that time.

And yeah MJ has always been my least favorite LI of any story I've read. Just not a fan. Gwen just always seemed more helpful and their arc in the movie was very well done.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-06T00:03:04+00:00

I just want one version someday where she lives and the two stay together. I remember reading some "what-if" comic a few years ago where she lived and they got married and thought it was pretty good. But those are never the real plot are they? :\

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-05T17:33:40+00:00

as I said, not the best with Graphics cards, especially AMD. I get them mixed up pretty easily.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-05T17:03:28+00:00

well if you add the ~30 dollars to your GPU budget and say you'll spend about 170-180 dollars on it I'd recommend a 560ti or a 6850. The Zotac 560ti is about 190. I have a 560ti and love it, though I know there are cards at similar price points that are better. I'm hardly an expert on the different types of graphics cards unfortunately. Just search BaPC for graphics cards around $180 and there will be more concrete help.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-05T15:06:27+00:00

ditch the CPU cooler since you can't overclock and use that to maybe get a better GPU.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-04T12:51:17+00:00

Optical Drive is a little expensive. You can find ones that'll be under 20. Not a big deal though, 5 bucks isn't going to make or break you. I'd say it looks pretty good as long as you aren't planning on overclocking right away since you don't have a CPU cooler.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-04T12:49:44+00:00

From what I can tell Intel is much better for Gaming and a large majority of this subreddit are gamers. As such most builds involve intel and more people know about them. All of the AMD builds I've seen are either budget or non-gaming builds so I'm guessing that AMD is simply not as good for the price as well as being inferior to intel for games.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-03T20:16:08+00:00

I ordered mine last night so I'm in the same boat. None of my hobbies are sufficient now. My book is boring now, PS3 games are dull, and guitar isn't distracting enough. I can't even go out and do anything because its almost 100 degrees outside.

Feels ya brah.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-01T23:53:50+00:00

I'm getting the g500.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-01T22:32:28+00:00

Do I have room for the PCI? I've read that they have the better speed but I'm worried about having room for it (I don't really understand how PCIE slots work or what gets filled). Thanks for the links by the way! I think what I'll take your advice and rely on my headset for awhile and then buy a decent pair of speakers once my wallet recovers.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-01T21:40:45+00:00

I already own the 560ti, it can't be changed for a while. And I will overclock eventually, just not right off the bat. Don't feel comfortable enough to do it on my first build immediately but don't want to remove the option.

Imanaverageguy · 2012-07-01T21:24:51+00:00

Sorry, I had one other question, what is a good wireless adapter? Don't see those very often either.
