well
it finally happened[:D]
my brand new super computer came to life on august 2nd 2004 at about 8 pm
[:D]
i know i couldve announced this big news a week ago, but i wanted to wait until i got a connection to the internet, which i just did now lol
and of course, the first game i installed?
Uncommon Valor
then i brought up the menu and pressed play....
nothing happened, and i was about to give up...
but then, uv CAME TO LIFE[:D]
i was shocked
and of course that gives an answer to whether or not it was a dud disk eh?
anyway, the stats for my new computer are, as far as i know =
Thermaltake xaser III case
Amd athlon 3400 processor
Asus k8v se deluxe motherboard
1 gb ram memory
Ati radeon 9800 video card
Sound blaster audigy 2 limited edition
250 gb ide hard drive
dual cd-dvd, rw-cd drives
3.5 floppy drive
viewsonic (19) inch monitor
altec lansing 3 piece speaker system
Logitech optical mouse
Logitech keyboard
convertx video-dvd converter
Approx cost - 2400.00 $
as far as i know, all or most of these parts came from newegg.com
my brother in law and i custom built it from scratch
i myself put in the video and i believe sound cards and installed the drives
i cant remember if i did anything else tho [:'(]
it was fun, and interesting to see it come together, but sum of it wasnt so fun, as, at the time i had just had my wisdom teeth taken out[X(]
so, it was great, as long as my painkillers were working......
[:'(]
and i of course tried uv and had sum decent success with the coral sea scenario, sinking several japanese mine sweepers and severely wounding the shokaku and shoho [:D]
im still trying to figure it out, but it should be interesting[:D]
