Couple of St. Paddy's day sips, and I couldn't figure out why my processor upgrade wouldn't work. Turns out my power source was only pushin 215w! What kinda jackass company puts only a 215w power source in a new fekkin computer?!! HP! That's who!!!  Oh yeah... happy fekkin St. Paddy's Day to yuh! May you not be crossed by HP. Ohj yeah.... fu Spazduh... |

heh I am quite happy with the performance of the 260 for the moment - no doubt I will upgrade to a 460/560Ti when Rage is out as I don't wanna be playing that on a non DX11 card or on a console! |
