Ok..
That Assassins Creed looks pretty good, it's originally for the console market but has been ported for pcs. Try and check it out.
Man I had some trouble getting Crysis to run ok at first.. It would start ok and then turn into a slide show.. Anyhow a few tweaks here and there got it running back in it's DX10 glory again..What a game! Even though I've played it many times before it still does the business as gaming goes.. Awesome.

Re: Are you ready to run 8GB of RAM?
Looks ok but some details could do with expanding on.... Are you thinking of buying it?
The PSU looks a little weak but as I said without knowing the ful spec it's hard to say..

Re: Are you ready to run 8GB of RAM?
Just as a quick note on my crysis with Crysis.. I'm now thinking it was my 'cool 'n'quiet' being enabled that was the problem.. I've since disabled it and put the old driver back on and it runs like a charm..weird.

Hi Kemical

No ..... Not in the market yet for another rig!!
I was looking around to see if there were rigs on the market with 8GB of RAM installed. I cannot see what benefit that would give at this present time. Certainly for what I use my rig for at present there is no need to upgrade.
Would this amount of RAM be wasted on a 32 bit???????
