Hey! its been a year since i last bloged, i lost interest in blogging since i had no fun doing so, but am bored now and i might start doing so anyway.
the problem starts when you start a new job and get bored during training, most of my training program involves only 2-3 hours of work within the day and the rest is just sitting still doing nothing but crying for something to do, and the damn minutes pass like an hour, and when you get home, the minutes pass like seconds.
i just got my new Computer which i ordered from outside kuwait, not all of the parts but most important parts i did order, since kuwait had nothing at all, its sad when your country isnt really interested in technology, and when they start to bring something, they bring the less powerful item since its cheaper.
so basically its all about economy, why bother bringing Intel Core 2 Extreme processors while people will buy the Intel Core Duo instead because of the intel core 2 price, they never consider the small number of people that really want to get that EXTREME processor, curse them.
well in order to build up my new PC, i ordered the items that are not available in kuwait, Processor / Motherboard / Rams / Video Card. as i like games so much, and care less about kiddie console, i had to order way over the normal spec.
the spec. is as follow
- Intel Core 2 Extreme X6800 Processor 2.98Ghz
- Asus P5W DH Deluxe UPDATED BIOS Motherboard
- Corsier XMS2 6400C DDRII 800 x 2 GB
- ATI X1950 XTX & ATI X1950 Crossfire Edition
i recieved all those thanks to my brother who ordered it for me except the crossfire which had late production date, but my brother has it and he is in the process of sending it " he is taking his time goddamn it! " . Other items i got from kuwait which, if you may, WAY out of specs. i dont know if people think that this PC is way too much, but hey, i saved all my sallary from my study in the UK to get this PC, i will say the price at the end.
- Western Digital 10,000 RPM 80GB HardDisk ( GAMES )
- MaXtor 7,200 RPM 500GB HardDisk ( movies/ Anime / Iso's )
- MaXtor 7,200 RPM 80GB HardDisk ( Windows XP/Vista )
- SoundBlaster X-Fi FATAL1TY PCI
- DVD-WR / DVD-Reader
you think thats too much for games and anime? well for anime yah, but for games i dont believe so.
i ran Oblivion on that PC, gave me good framerate and all, but sadly the game sucked, it has a good story line and all but the character designe and the animation is totally off the charts, that game had good potential but it lost it all because of its bad animation, other games i ran on that machine is Call of Juarez, that game has EXCELLENT graphics, and i enjoyed every bit of it, physics/graphics/storyline, it was a good game, compare to GUN, one of the games i ordered which had bad score from gamespot is Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, that game is really nice to play, i have no idea what went wrong with gamespot, its true it had some problems, come on, a game is not a game without any bugs and glitches no?
that game gave me a good feeling on how to use Swords/daggers in a First Person Shooter game, because usually all first person shooter games are using guns and you actually dont have enough time to melee your enemy alot, but that game gave me a good experiance, storywise is nice, though its a bit dull, but you will get the idea.
Anyway, am gonna stop now since my 2hours limited internet connection going to end soon, GIVE ME MORE TIME!, PC ESTIMATED COSTS is 1600 KD
Blogging? because am bored!
