I'm a better driver at night than I am in the daytime - I once drove for 10 minutes at 3AM without my lights on and didn't notice anything was wrong. (thankfully someone flashed theirs at me and alerted me of it, otherwise that could have ended badly for someone else).

This doesn't make you a good driver, it makes you an idiot who shouldn't be allowed on the road.

Save making a new topic I guess....

lag..RS...what?

Try warring in the wilderness, every 10 steps you get a loading screen nowadays

Oh, I've never warred in the wilderness. Thanks.  :fp:

I think he means since they did the Graphics Update a week or so back, which has fucked stuff up :3

ya, RAM is one of the cheapest ways to speed up your computer, and most likely the reason why your computer can't handle multiple programs running at once.

Five
Fucking
Weeks
Old

Learn to read the date of topics retards :fp:

Frankly, I wouldn't recommend Android based on my experiences with it. 

While I hate Apple computers (and their huge Apple tax) the Apple mobile devices (iPhone/iPad/iPod) really are ahead of the rest due to iOS.  I prefer my 'old' iPod touch and the way it works over my relatively new Phone with Android 2.2, it just feels crap in comparison.

I most likely will go for WP7.5 for my next phone anyway as I'm currently doing some development for it and I've really been impressed with it so far..... I really want to avoid having to use shit like itunes to get the most out of a phone.

FFS I swear I pressed the rfh drop button :@

The highest point your fail clan ever reached: Getting TPR to make a 10 minute prep WG run to single  :>

Don't worry, at least you got to ass lick your way to be the leader of DG after that.

I'm the DG leader, you're an ex-member. I win  :)

Why do only console games count?

Because kids think consoles are the 'only' way to game....

... and most idiorts are too poor for a decent gaming PC :3

The game I've played most, ever, would have to be Age of Empires 3, just because I've played it most doesn't mean it've 'completed' it though.

FFs dont know where you  sdid maths but your basic addition is poor JC +p
£600+ Is not fun...
In addition damn graphics cards are no longer on the site

I can see where I went wrong, I forgot to include the case in the totals :3

Graphics cards, rough equivalents:

GTX 560 Ti - £160

HD 6870 - £150

If you want to save a bit more you could go for this card, not as much performance as a 6870 but they're still fine (considering the prices, I'd take the 560Ti myself, but I think if it was down to the 6850 or 6870 I'd keep the £30 and go for the 6850):

HD 6850 - £120

Other changes you could make now, since the Bulldozer has turned out to be an almighty 'meh' (This is the current 'best bulldozer' vs. the chip below, the bulldozer chip is a little over twice the price) I wouldn't even bother planning to upgrade to one in the future, you could change to this for AMD:

AMD 880 Motherboard - £65

AMD 955BE CPU - Quad Core 3.20Ghz - £100

Saving another £20 over the original price, the CPU costs have gone up.

I'd need to double check everything again really, because looking at it a lot of prices have changed (Price of the original CPU has gone up etc).  To be fair there is a point where it's worth just waiting a bit longer and saving up more, I think £550 is about that 'sweet point' at the moment.

Decreasing the CPU/Graphics/Hard Drive any further are likely to see significant performance decreases (you'd have to go to a tri-core/Athlon to save any significant amount on the CPU, halving your HDD space saves you £20 lol) and really anything under the 6850/6870 is going to struggle with newer games.

Oh and lol, only just noticed I didn't include ram in the list above ##

2 x 2Gb Corsair XMS 3 - £23

Same RAM I have, it's not fancy but it is cheap and it's fine.  Corsair also have a lifetime warranty which I've used repeatedly and they're really good to deal with.

Honestly, fixing networking issues is a pain in the ass if you're not physically 'there' to see what is happening etc (ie. to see what modem/router setup you have). 

If you don't know how to do any of the above (and to be fair, most people wouldn't) then I'd suggest either take the laptop back to wherever you got it from and tell them the issue you're having (it might be a common issue with that model and they might know an 'easy' fix) or get someone in to take a look at your network, your ISP/Internet Service Provider might be able to help with that.

Another option would be to go to a friends/family member's house and connect to their wireless and see if the issue continues there..... should narrow it down to a laptop issue or a network issue.  Probably best to do that before either of the other two steps above :P

Update your wireless drivers, even if it's brand new they could be out of date.

Another problem could be you're using the wrong wireless type (eg. your router might be wireless G but your laptop is trying to use a different type, such as wireless N) but I think that's relatively unlikely as any decent PC should pick that up and automatically use whatever is available.

It could be interference between your wireless network and someone else's close by (Wireless networks normally have channels, check on your modem/router).  This one seems most likely to me, perhaps your new laptop uses a different band of wireless which is interfering with a neighbours connection?

I'm sorry I don't play COD Modern Warfare 2 redux ##

And more to the point....

oh, Console.

One less group of people to mute..... wat :3

Just remember that for Runescape core count doesn't matter. RS only uses /one/ core, no matter how many you have. So, you need the fastest single core you can - A 3.2ghz C2D is going to be better than a 2.0ghz I5 or w/e, simply because each core is faster.

Yup, I totally agree (though you can't actually buy a current gen desktop i5 that is that slow and the Sandy Bridge architecture is so efficient that there wouldn't be that much difference between a 3.2 C2D and a 2.0 Ghz Sandy Bridge i5).

I think though that Tom is trying to build this PC in preparation for Bioshock Infinite, which being a game that will be released sometime in 2012(?) I'm sure it will have multi-core support.  I also believe that Jagex has stated previously that Runescape does have the ability to support multiple cores when they enable it, so sometime in the future we're quite likely to see RS running on multiple cores (I would guess once they've done a major graphics upgrade).

Ahaha, thanks alot JC

I never realised thought to look at it like that tbh

Next time i go Pc shopping might use this thread :3

Always happy to help, if you're looking at building a PC just post up a list & I'll happily give feedback :)

Isn't there alot more powerful components out there nowerdays? i may be wrong but i've heard of like 8 cpu systems, 6gb+ ram, 8gb g-cards etc

I was working to a budget as I mentioned in my post :3

Yes there are 8-core chips, but they're not very impressive.

Yes you can get alot more than 6gb of RAM, but there is very few situations that you'd need any more than 4.... you certainly wouldn't need more than 4 for gaming.

No there is no graphics cards with 8 Gb of RAM, the highest I can think of at the moment is the ATI 6990 series (4Gb of RAM) and nVidia GTX 590 (3Gb of RAM)...

But anyway overall it's not really a good idea to look at a part and say "More cores = Better" or "More RAM = Better" because that really isn't the case in the real world, in the current situation a 4-core Intel CPU is roughly equal in performance to the recently released AMD 8-core.  Some things look really impressive on a Spec sheet for a new computer (such as 16 Gb's of RAM) but it really turns out the performance benefits are minimal for gaming and you pay alot more for it.
