Well, I've got a new computer (HDR capable!)

Today, the main computer went INSAYN! The fan was on full blast dispite having no heatin problems, causing an unbearable 24 hour noise. Along with that, our moniter refused to work half the time, games started to recive MASSIVE lag spikes every 30 seconds, and de old beuty was crashing A LOT! After a long hard disucssion (5 minutes of listening to that annoying fan noise actually) we decided it would just be better to get a new computer at this point.

So here we are, a computer with the same stats as my old one. Yeah it's not a huge leap, but look at what it can do:

(Ignore the FPS's at the bottom, that had nothing to do with HDR being on full)

It also came with a kick ass keyboard and a mouse with 2 extra buttons in addition to left right and middle.

I don't get it though, if the map already has HDR lighting couldn't you just get your old computer HDR compatable?

Nice. I have also gotten a major computer upgrade capable of running everything set to max on any mod with +100fps. Only downside is moving everything from the old computer to the new one which is a real pain in the ass.

I COULD get a new graphix card for that computer, but there's far more wrong with it than just the graphics card.

Hi model and texture detail. I had to remove that pretty thumb of his for HDR.
