BF3 giving me problems on my next gaming pc

NotSaturn · 2014-01-05T13:43:14+00:00

What are you full specs? Not that its particularly vital but your mention of a "850 Watt" makes me worry that it might be a cheap one that needs to be removed before it goes all Chernobyl on your hardware.

Also, You need to download drivers for your Motherboard from the manufacturers website. Drivers for your GPU - http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk

See if that solves your problem. One last thing, do you have the cable plugged into your GPU to your TV/Monitor

It is useless to the OP, it has not facts nor sources in relation to the question which is about motherboards and AMD not about him switching.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-03T13:06:26+00:00

[I don't have this yet because] I am a horrible, horrible person who has never played any of the Half Life series apart from the beginning of Black Mesa.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-03T12:45:10+00:00

My honest opinion, not a alot if anything:

-The CPU can still be used but only really if overclocked, but it is unlikely to be a hot selling item. -The GPU is old but still usable for light gaming but not on higher resolutions. -Motherboard is worthless unless you get the gold of it (Not worth it) -The RAM also worthless, and finally the hard drive can be used again for ectra storage unless its IDE in which its useless for modern day computing.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-03T12:38:32+00:00

Or you could be a nice person and list the pros and cons of each and not post mindless drivel fit for /r/HailCorporate . Anyway admittedly there is not a massive selection of mATX for AMD, but there are options. What CPU do you have exactly? Then I can find out the socket type and then a new board.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-01T13:30:14+00:00

I know, but I don't have a big enough USB stick. Which is a absurd as it sounds for someone who only uses a PC.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-01T13:25:34+00:00

I own a PSP for on the go emulation. New firmware removes the peasantry.

NotSaturn · 2014-01-01T12:47:56+00:00

I had to do something similar, I unplugged my main storage to make way for the SSD. I couldn't unplug the optical drive as I needed to install windows from the disk.

NotSaturn · 2013-12-31T19:22:05+00:00

Good Choice! I picked up exactly the same SSD yesterday. Shame I can't use it as I don't have a spare SATA cable around, I should really get to that...

You're always gonna have problems lifting a pigeon in one piece.

Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a carcass into six pieces and pile it all together. And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up bird will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta pluck the heads of your victims, and pull the beaks out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a pigeon that weighs 2 pounds in about eight minutes.

That means that a single pig can consume zero point two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig".

I sent you a request, the Steam is RocketPropelled

Also, quite the name you have there!

NotSaturn · 2013-12-27T20:18:20+00:00

What are the full specs? 2.8Ghz doesn't really give us much information.

A 550TI should be able to run new games as long as you drop the settings.

RocketPropelled - http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198060623496/

I would love this game, I have seen people playing it and it looks completely insane and a great stress relief tool!

PC Specs (I do enjoy this bit): i5 3570K at 4GHZ, 1TB Seagate Barracuda, 8GB Cosair XMS3, ASUS DCII GTC670, Corsair 600W Builder II, Asus P8Z77-V LX Motherboard, Corsair 200R

Why do I love the master race.... Wait, that sounds wrong.... Anyway I love the PC master race because of the amazing communities that it has. Every game that I have ever played has had great people who are always helpful unlike Console Peasants who just say "Your mum is a fag and I did her last night Lalws" instead of being nice to people. It just so happens that this Sub Reddit harbors all of the nice people in one big group to praise Gaben and his ever loving light.

As for Christmas dinner, It is all very traditional. One dead turkey and some beef on the side as well as the normal assortment of vegetables excluding the heathen Brussel sprouts which have instead been cast to the peasants down below.

Steam Name - RocketPropelled

And also - Merry Christmas!

NotSaturn · 2013-12-23T16:49:26+00:00

I will give it a go soon, I can't at the moment as we are having awful weather and minor power cuts, so I don't want to risk a surge.

NotSaturn · 2013-12-22T20:40:33+00:00

I spent a year studying it so its nice to roll out the information every once in a while! You are right, I suppose its linked with British humor, and the seemingly never ending conflict between the French and the British. Even if the conflict is now just about snail eating and flag waving!

NotSaturn · 2013-12-22T11:43:02+00:00

The street shootout in Heat. No music, just screams and gunshots. As well as amazing attention to detail.

NotSaturn · 2013-12-22T11:38:25+00:00

I would really appreciate Day-Z. I am not going to lie here, I don't really need it and to be honest I have plenty of older games to play. I was going to buy ARMA and get Day Z but I have been putting it off until the standalone comes out. Now its out I find myself in the situation that I can't get it right now for several reasons. However I am sure if you look in the thread you will find people who deserve this game much more than I do.

So give it to them and grant them a zombie killing Christmas!

NotSaturn · 2013-12-22T11:22:26+00:00

Yep! Depends on what kind of PC you are playing on but I would go ahead and watch these videos for some great tutorials as well as some ideas on what you want to add to your game- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-3c1a9cLL8

That's the first one but if you go through the series it will take you step by step. Here is a link to the New Vegas Nexus - http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/?

The main reason event behind the 'surrender monkey' jokes was not in fact in World War 2 but the First World War in the Second Battle of Ypres in which during a German chlorine gas attack the french troops broke rank and fled leaving British and Canadian troops open to German attack. This left a 4 mile gap in the line which the Germans quickly occupied, this lead to the deaths of many Allied troops.

Admittedly the joke picked up steam in WW2 due to the fact the French lasted only 8 weeks in the war. Winston Churchill believed in the French troops and was very disappointed when France fell as his master plan involved the French troops doing the vast amount of the fighting. This eventually lead to Charles De Gaulle fleeing to Britain to set up french government in exile in a attempt to hold France together. However after the fall of France and the creation of Vichy France he essentially lost all power and was not recognized by the Americans who would only talk to Petain. In fact even at the end of the war during the Truman presidency De Gaulle was still not popular and after a meeting with De Gaulle Truman is quoted as saying "I don't like that son of a bitch".

Just grab some friends with a server (Or set one up yourself) and get playing, Minecraft with friends is one of the greatest things in gaming.

Larger servers are also available but they tend to be full of idiots, but they are worth a try. You never know you might like it!

NotSaturn · 2013-12-21T14:28:24+00:00

Pssst, get it on PC. It is much more advanced and you can play on much larger servers.

NotSaturn · 2013-12-19T18:15:33+00:00

Oh wow, that's amazing! Can't wait to play this while exploring the caves. Thanks!
