Bf3 has to be bought through orgin. But skyrim legendary is only about $30 plus all the mods make it look amazing. They are easy to install.

Everything really looks better but to be blown away something like Skyrim or Metro should do it. I remember BF3 on ultra making me go wow, but not as much as skyrim.

I have a spare Steam account with about 25 games on it I can maybe lend you to try some things out.

ETA: It doesn't have much but I have been putting spare stuff I have on there for when I build my nephew a PC in about another month.

I've been messing with some of the advanced skyrim mods, which require SKSE and/or ENB, and those can be a total bitch. I'm still doing Nexus Mod Manager and manual installs though. I am considering going through the S.T.E.P. process (Skyrim Total Enhancement Project) if I get a block of time to do it. It's about a 10-hour undertaking it seems.

I just so the ones in the steam workshop and those are fine for me and so easy. Nexus was just to much.

Someone buy my 7970 so I can buy this



I'm scared of Powercolor, but that's a pretty good deal. It's the price of a 780. Also comes with 8 games:

Crysis 3
Bioshock Infinite
Tomb Raider
Far Cry 3
Deus Ex Human Revolution
Hitman Absolution
Sleeping Dogs
Far Cry Blood Dragon

Unfortunately, I have all of those games since they were all part of previous bundle deals. They're getting aggressive. Hoping the 7970 drops significantly, too.

I just got my RMA in from Zotac and I had some issues with their RMA guy so I called his boss and complained. They not only sent me a brand new 660Ti but they sent me a Zotac leather wallet, flashlight, some pens, some post it notes and a Multi tool like this one

That's pretty cool of them. I've never owned a Zotac product but sounds like they have decent customer relations. What kind of issues were you having with the RMA guy?

Actually, the boss I spoke too admitted their customer service has been horrible and he was recently hired to clean it up. He said they have been getting killed on the net because of some of their old policies.

Even though it was under warranty he didn't want to take it because I didn't buy from an authorized dealer. I know some places have this policy but I think it's bullshite. Sort of defeats the purpose of unique serial codes on each individual product. He said they are looking into changing it in the near future to compete with Place like Gigabyte and ASRock who only go off of serial codes with or without an authorized dealer receipt.

I keep waking up around 2am because of the dog or whatever then can't go back to sleep at all or if I do at 6am then wake up for work at 7. It sucks and the worst is I am trying to go back to sleep so it's not like I use that time to game.

Never played a Bioshock game, so I'm interested in Infinite.

Got a pair of Xigmatek Asgard 381s in today. Really nice looking case for the $25 a piece i paid. Room for 8 fans, dust screen on bottom panel for the PSU and bottom fan slot, usb 3.0 front panel header also has a usb 2.0 lead so you can use it as either/or (cant use both, just 2 headers). looks like plenty of room for Hyper 212 cpu cooler. comes with a 5.25 to 3.5 inch front panel bay converter.

cons:
looks like only very slim rads would fit in the top bay
no fans included. none. zero. zilch. (not really a con if you planned on replacing shitty stock case fans anyway)

its also very lightweight. that can be both a pro and con depending on your needs. looks well worth $25
