Can you also explain how to overclock ? and how much you should overclock it max ? ty I'd recommend reading up on it beforehand, seeing how it's not just a "point and click" procedure. My CPU's (QX9770) clockspeed is originally 3.2 GHz, but currently it's overclocked to 3.8 GHz. This is my personal limit, because when I go over my PC gets very unstable. Other people have lifted this same CPU to 4.5 GHz and even higher. The limit really depends on the configuration of your PC. Your RAM, motherboard, FSB speed, and ofcourse your CPU fan play a vital role in overclocking. I only know how to overclock on a Socket 775 Intel system. Sandy Bridge systems are completely different because they have no traditional FSB (correct me if I'm wrong). Long story short, I can't really tell you how to overclock. Summed up it's just overclocking your FSB speed in your BIOS. To calculate the desired speed you can use the formula: (desired clockspeed in MHz) / Multiplier x (amount of cores). Anyway, just read some guides on the internet specifically written for the hardware you want to lose, and never go over the manufacturer specific limits (live Vcore) unless you know what you're doing.

Play nice now children.

Overclocking isn't actually a big problem. Although it does give the CPU a shorter lifetime, you probably won't use the CPU for it's entire lifetime anyway and chuck it out after ~5 years. And thus you won't notice.

Do it while the RAM prices are still ridiciously low. I upgraded to 8GB too. I'm probably going to buy the RAM kit I mentioned today. But you know how it goes between me and PC's, and my current configuration has been running solid for months. Not sure if I want to risk it

Just finished singleplayer. Pretty short, but really good Why would you do this? My computer is a product of endlessly upgrading components (started in 2008 or so), so that RAM has pretty much been there forever (Incidentally, I'm considering purchasing this).

Oh nuts... I want home... Nauuuuuuuuw! I did know its only needed when activating, but i thought it just connects to korean(asian) servers then after that... Gotta wait other 6 hours to get home and activate it. Hope my computer can run it on high settings :shrug: Does anybody know good IP for activating via windows proxy? (Mayco?) I used a method similar to this: http://vivithemage.com/2011/10/how-to-play-battlefield-3-early/

Activated it using the built-in Windows proxy, very simple. The game really looks fantastic. I'm playing it at ultra (HD6970, Intel QX9770, 4GB RAM) and it's really playable. Granted, it's not a constant 60 FPS, but I don't think it drops below 30 much. So far it's simply a great game, although a bit frustrating so every now and then.

You can join servers that are in europe without being connected to a VPN, no lag, just awesome gameplay. Oh, so basically the person that said "You can only play in Korean servers" simply forgot to turn off his VPN?

So what's the deal with the Korean VPN activation stuff? Some people say you'll be stuck with Korean servers when you do it, others say EA doesn't actually care. I'd like to play some BF3 tonight, but not if it means I have to play with Koreans and a ping of 300+.

Looks like a good game, though I'm personally not very excited. The first two games were good quality/gameplay-wise, but it doesn't really excite me for some reason.

Caspian Border is fantastic. Operation Métro is okay, but it really doesn't show the potential Battlefield 3 has. Too bad about the lag though.

How do you guys like that SSD? It seems fairly cheap for a 128 GB one. Last time I checked not every SSD performed that well, plus not all of them were stable (I think OCZ SSD's had some problems, for example).

As you can see, not much has changed since last time, except for the spot on my desk I dedicated to my Arduino and related electronics. Also sorry for the cheap panorama.

Germany and their silly censoring laws. They're even screwing adults over with shit like that. If you work a nightshift somewhere you can't download it, and I can imagine you have something better to do than download a game at 11 PM.

Works fine here after following the guide Clavus posted

Sweet, just installed a new modem in preparation for the increased internet speed (50 mbps) we'd get in october, and it appears it has already been activated. The beta is downloading nice 'n quick :>

My Origin ID is Maycuz Also, when is the beta starting (time)?

Got my hands on the SKIDROW release just now. Played it a bit, and seems like a fantastic game (although the AI is retarded). Definite buy.

I never played the first one, but it looks interesting. I really enjoy games like ArmA II, and I read somewhere that this is pretty much the ArmA of WWII. Is this true/can anyone recommend it?

Wasn't exactly funny, but this guy clearly has some mental problems.

You got banned for misbehavior on the server, and then taking it to the forums. I'd also like to add: http://forums.left4green.com/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&section=findpost&pid=81780 http://forums.left4green.com/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&section=findpost&pid=81791

You can post an unban request here: http://forums.left4green.com/forum/5-bans-unbans/ Please fill in the form normally instead of copy/pasting this load of crap in another post. Note that processing the request may take a while. Also, I'd prefer it if you didn't talk about our admins like that. The only thing you're doing is getting yourself into shit deeper and deeper.

I'm afraid one single player can't get someone "de-adminized", unless that admin did some serious admin abuse. I understand you were spamming and evading CarPileUp's mute/gag. You had a previous ban for pretty much the same reasons, and then you decided to go on the forums and make an ass of yourself. CarPileUp made his decision. If you feel like it's unjustified, feel free to make an unban request in the unban forums. Make sure to fill in the forms properly and (for your sake), don't use childish insults or make outrageous claims.

We'll figure out if the reason CarPileUp banned you is legitimate (which it probably is). The admins being "shitheads" is just your rage-filled opinion, because you got banned. Getting a "refund" for the time you were banned is probably the most ridiculous thing I've heard all week, and you probably know that as well. The other thread won't be unlocked, but I'll leave this open for a short while. Though if it turns into a shitstorm it'll be closed in no-time.

If you want to apply for admin, use the proper forms. If you have something to settle with CarePileUp, try to do it in proper way and not with useless insults. Locking thread.
