Core i5 2500K Sapphire 7870 Build

Minecraft is just a giant 3D grid, and every 1x1x1 block has an value corresponding to what block it is. And there you have 75% of the game.

It's not intensive in any way, it's just really badly written.

pfft, haters gona hate

 

[EarthDog]

Pffff, the ignorant gonna keep being oblivious.

 

[Knufire]

I'm not saying it's a bad game, I play it myself. But being intensive doesn't make it a good game.

Hey, I spend more time than anything else playing Halo 1. My rig runs it at 2000FPS. It's not intensive at all. Does that make it a bad game?

 

[felixthemaster]

who said non intensive games are bad? dont twist my words please!


and earth you are using that wrong!

I have broken my case so I have ordered a replacement and also my graphics card was sent back so i ordered the sapphire 7870 OC edition. Just wondering what is the max temps for GPu before I should start worrying?

 

[EarthDog]

Ok, I'll bite... how did you break your case?

Keep AMD GPUs, around 70C. It wont hurt anything going above that, but sometimes you can experience instability.

 

[felixthemaster]

Okay thanks

Ok, I'll bite... how did you break your case?

Lets just say it involving dropping heavy metal objects on the top fins of the case

Okay thanks

i got to have a picture to see the proof

 

[felixthemaster]

its not very visual. I could easily just super glue those two sides on but i didnt want a red neck case to take into uni with me.. sigh.. hours of cable management down the drain, time to start over again!

 

[EarthDog]

At least you can get a better case!

 

[felixthemaster]

well i already ordered the same case.. i didnt knwo what else to get in the same £50 price range

 

[EarthDog]

Oye...ok.

 

[felixthemaster]

just wondering if i should install the PSU and then plug it in or is the bare case enough to ground me?

 

[EarthDog]

What did you do the first time? I would stick to that method...since it worked. Normally, the PSU is one of the last things I install, especially if its not modular.
