speaking of japanese food, i ate some pretty average ramen for lunch. they tricked me with their "we're in the michelin food guide!" sticker:/

also i just set up my ps3 , the shoddy tv actually handles games alright!

That's this weekend? I didn't notice any furries in town. They must be getting ready late these days. Worth the coin? The theme really put me off this year.



LOL Pretty much.

The bf thinks it's worth the money every year so take that as you will.
I think it's worth it just for the spectacle. Gonna be there all 3 days, plus we're dressing up as The Doctor and Amy for a bit of fun.

So that's annoying. Updated Bios on Mobo and now my PC does jack shit. It restarted and went into bios recovery mode, didn't seem to want to find the USB stick with the bios on it to do the recovery.

I get no video on the internal dvi/vga or on my GPU after messing with the only jumper on the system!

Guess I need to try and buy a new board tomorrow. Don't really want to do a new PC upgrade just yet.

I support Shan's views on the hierarchy of Japanese food. Sashimi needs to be included, however.

If you disagree, you mustn't have had CoCo Curry or Go Go Curry.

So I have 3 options for my PC right now. I've just about done everything and i'm still not getting any video out, either from 2 GPUs or the internals of the motherboard. Seems like the bios is just dead.

1) Buy a new motherboard for under $100 and be done.

2) Buy a new rig that doesn't include a GPU. Motherboard, CPU, Ram, Maybe new fan

3) Go all out and upgrade the entire thing.

Not sure which one I should go, I do need to sorta make the decision asap so I can actually get the parts today since places are closed tomorrow.

Unless you've been frustrated with the gaming/general performance you've been getting from your PC, I'd suggest just getting a new motherboard. Apart from being the cheaper option, it's the quickest resolution and saves the redundancy of buying a completely new PC "just because."

Steam sales can really suck arse sometimes. I wanted to find a co-op game for me and my friends. I wanted to try LotR: War of the North. Can't be too expensive right? It's $15 at JB after all without any sale. Search it...$36 ON SPECIAL. And even worse? $9 on the US store. Fuck off with that shit.

Yea that's the route i'm going to take. I don't need to upgrade just yet and the goal was to do a full upgrade either at the end of the year or early next. After all the next gen games are out and all the new PC hardware.

What processor do you have? I bought a new mobo a little over a week or so ago because I thought that was gone on my own PC, but turns out it was the PSU. I could try my luck getting a refund from MSY, but I'd rather palm it off to someone here if I can.

Edit: Surgeon Simulator is damn cheap currently on Steam. Woo!

Would be nice to have the machine running today though. So I'm just going to head down to the local and buy things!

Bah, that fucking sucks. Because I have it sitting at work as well :(

Same processor, too. Almost tempted to drive/train up and get it for you but today just happens to be one of the busiest Saturdays I've had in forever :/

FWIW, it's this one, I think at MSY for $119 (I might've paid $129?) but I'd get rid of it for a hundred. Literally brand new.

I went with option 1. Mostly since I don't feel the need to actually go for an upgrade just yet, New cards from AMD on the horizon and I can wait to see what sort of mess next gen causes.

New MB and it works! Yay for my diagnostic skills.
