The preview stories I read a few months ago about Vanguard sounded interesting. I was thinkin' about trying it out. Reviews say it's a wee bit on the rough side with lots of little bugs crawlin'round. That's okay, but payin' for an MMO? That's a big step fer me. How is Vanguard for you Dr? Falcon W...

LOL, as you can see by my signature, I have played my fair share of WoW. Not a bad game if you are looking for some MMO gameplay. Right now, my time is split between my 360 and Vanguard/IL2/FSX for the pc.

All the temps mentioned so far sound very very high IMO. I think you have some airflow issues. Wanna post a picture of your case with the side off so we can have a look? For me general rule of thumb on air cooling: CPU<55C GPU<75C I have been using watercooling for this reason for years. For water: ...

You guys take a look at this recently? I have been playing a bit of Company of Heroes again to get my WWII fix and was thinking to give this one a look. Anyone else going to pick it up.

I am acting producer, designer, and QA guy so that doesn't really help since I am way too busy at work these past 6 mo...
