Okay well if that is the case you have, reading through the user reviews from that site, it seems like the front and back can fit an 80mm or 92mm fan. The side panel if you remove the air duct thing can fit a 120mm fan.

Think it should also work for New Vegas.

Thanks for the impressions. I'm going to keep this in mind and check out the demo on XBLA. I'm probably going to get it though.
I found The Walking Dead save data.
Arkham City is on cloud, I think, because of the GFWL bullshit. I think I'm screwed... lost 10 hours on the game, fuck. Reminds me why I left PC gaming a while ago.
Thank you so much!

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Okay so if I get everything straight, I'm going to do the following stuff in the near future:
Buy a new heatsink
Buy toothpaste
Buy a 90mm for the back, 80mm for the front and 90mm for the side. I'll take some measurements tomorrow but I'm pretty sure my side panel can't take 120mm
I'll be going to bed now, thanks for all help SteamGAF! Talk to you tomorrow!

Cheers! Just edited it. Let's see if it makes a difference.
I haven't played the second Batman yet. Is it saving with Steam or GFWL? GFWL doesn't save on a cloud. It tends to encrypt and bury save files. But if it's not working, it could also be that it ate it. GFWL loves to eat saves.
Probably best to use GameSaveManager to periodically backup your saves:

Not only will it protect you, but it'll find all the bullshit files that MS hides with GFWL.
I always thought the cloud save was optional?

What about the witcher? Also if I remember right when I upgraded PCs in Feb I lost my save data for Arkham City and had to start over, no cloud save for me for it, so it MIGHT be local but under a GFWL dir? I am at work so I can't readily check.
It's default, because Steam sure didn't ask me if I wanted to use.
Now, why someone with no experience with Steam should know that your saves could suddenly disappear? This is some bullshit.
I'm not sure what the problem is though, because Steam doesn't recognize any of my saves, cloud or not.

Arkham City saves to Steam Cloud if you enabled it. try checking "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\75248785\57400\remote" or wherever your Steam folder it should have your XBL tag with a .sgd extension.
GameSave manager is also helpful in finding save game directories.

Moving to this page.
With the exception of cloud saves, Steam doesn't touch that data. The games themselves do it. Since you have three games that are completely unrelated I'm guessing the cause is elsewhere with your computer. It could be a profile issue, a drive letter change, or any number of other things.
Dirt 2 is a fantastic arcade racer that's well worth 4.99. Best Dirt game in the series.
Not sure how save files work if you don't sign in to Live. If you're gonna be a power Steam buyer, though, mine as well just bite the bullet and create an account. You'll soon have 25 games that use GFWL. Just suck it up and hold on tight.
Steam recognizes my achievements and time played though... no idea of what it could be.

You can use an offline profile but you can't completely circumvent it.
Yeah I already have a GfWL account. It hasn't come and raped me yet so I guess I'll go for it. Hopefully that offline thing will work out okay. Thanks.

Achievements and playtime for steam are tracked outside of the save file. My played time for Arkham City is total of playing on my old PC and my new PC on two separate saves.

Still don't know why I got HL Lost Coast. Wasnt part of the OB :/ Did someone misteriously gift it to me? 
Dust is the enemy! It's a good idea to clean every month, but I'm way too lazy so I end up doing it like twice a year.

I originally got mine for owning an ATI card. Think it's been included quite often with owning certain cards.
To sum up, I'm screwed then.
Have you cleaned up/moved any folders recently? Game saves are usually (infuriatingly) placed in My Documents; have you checked there?

Doesn' everyone who buys something from the HL series get it? Or even everyone who installs Steam.
Stupid question RE The Walking Dead. (I don't want to go into the thread for spoiler fears!)
How do you manually save the game, pressing escape brings up the resume, menu, options, exit list, but it's not obvious to me where to save it?
Also at the end of a chapter is there a way to skip the credits?

In fact I think that's where The Witcher saves should be. I wouldn't say screwed, its possible that they are *hopefully* still on your PC, but just somewhere that the game is not looking for them in.
There is no manual save, it's all checkpoints. You can skip the credits by hitting escape.
The Walking Dead and The Witcher saves are there. Arkham City is on cloud though. Frankly, I'm only worried about AC.
The worse thing is, I can't even be sure if I won't lose my data again, because from what I'm reading GFWL likes to fuck with you even if you disable cloud saving.

I get off of work in 3 hours. If you can wait I'll check where my saves are locally (I think they are in a GFWL dir, but I want to be sure) and PM you on where to look.
Edit: found some stuff that might help or at least clarify for ya heringer.

I actually found where the savedata is located, I just don't know where to go from there, because as I understand the problem is with the GFWL encrypted key, that is linked to your saves.
Edit: yes, I was reading that topic. I'm just afraid of tinkering with save data if the problem is also happening with games that doesn't use cloud or GFWL...
In fact, when I start up Batman it even asks me to put the CD Key again.
Thanks, I hate checkpoints.... means I can't quit a game when I need to...
I finished the first chapter last night and no matter what key I pressed including escape I had to sit there and watch all the credits.... do you need to watch them the first time?

Golden rule about Steam purchases: If in doubt about a Steam purchase - don´t buy. You will still have enough to play.
Something like this happened to me too with Splinter Cell: Conviction. I exited out of the game properly. When I started it up again, I was prompted to download a new save from the cloud servers because they were conflicting from my saves on the HDD so I hit yes and it brought me back to an earlier checkpoint maybe 2 hours ago.
What I did was turn off cloud saving from the UPLAY settings and use the gamesavemanager to back up my save files after each session. Only then can I be assured that I wont lose my saves.
Really tempted to just crack the game so I don't have to deal with this shit.
But you don't understand! It's for when I want to pick what I want to play, when I want to.
I'm not in doubt, just unsure about it with GfWL, and theres no such thing as a backlog.
