Re: New GFX Card

New graphics card is here and it's simply amazing, tried out Bioshock 2 and it's now seamlessly smooth where it was choppy on top settings before, Dalaran (to the WoW players) is now very smooth indeed, at a reasonable 25-30fps.

As for the keyboard, I am typing on it now and it is very comfortable indeed, I still haven't gotten used to the programmable keys being on the far left and keep hitting the bottom left one when I'm going for control but I'll get used to it, it's comfortable to use and seems very ergonomic and each key going down gives a reassuring click to know you've pressed it, great quality keyboard!

And the mouse, well Zing I have an MX Revolution Laser mouse and when I first got it it was very good for games, etc. Now I've had it maybe 18 months and it's definitely coming to the end of its life, it started having a quirky problem some months ago where it would respond to every single click as a double-click and got quite annoying and tiresome, I was almost going to bin it at one point but it sorted itself out, anyway, now it feels a bit sluggish and gets a bit irritating in games, so I thought I'd get myself a decent wired mouse as well just in case I feel the urge to fling the Revolution out of the window!

So yeah, it's been a good day
