Yeah, I was really busy at college the past few weeks, but I'm now done until September (will be starting my top-up year at Uni then).
The main reason for my absense is that my 7970M died a while ago lol, same symptoms as graz'zt from NBR. Quite a big downer there, hence me being quiet and keeping my mouth shut. I did manage to make it work after loads of attempts, but whenever the gaming clocks kick in, it crashes to a black screen. After that the BIOS just didn't detect it. Luckily for me a replacement will be here in 2-3 days, and it will be a nice OEM card. I've also ordered an AMD heatsink for it... guess using the Nvidia one was a massive mistake, I was too stubborn to bother changing.
What sucks even more is that after 100+ hours of pure Diablo 3 addiction, my 580M which I've been using in the meantime passed away, just black screens after 30 seconds (pretty sure the game killed it, because people have been complaining). But that didn't stop me, so I have been using my old laptop w/ a 5870M. I can tell you now, going from a 7970M to a 5870M is painful.
Buttttttt, honestly no need for this thread.
