Case in point-I have already start to act like i am coming down with the flu at work today. If i get a beta invite in my email (which is open at all times) I will fake throwing up and promptly leave work to download game and play.

However is there anything that would stop you from downloading and playing today?

Would you stop in the middle of having relations with boyfriend/girl friend if you hear the email notificaiton to start downloading the game?

Promptly leave work?

Wait until after work?

just curious on how dedicated you all are?



What would stop me? Posting the above from my work computer....

Yeah, I mean, I trust them. Right now working at a machine designed for gaming is there anything that would stop me...hmm not really? Work would get thrown out the window it seems.

I'd be on right after work. And my wife said she'd hand feed me all weekend so I wouldn't have to stop playing as much. Now THAT's a good woman.

Well I'm operating the same logic I guess. Thx for Coolermaster tip and... Couldn't you measure height from motherboard to highest point of your 212 model please? ^___^


I don't use the hyper 212, I just know guys who have. I /always/ use Noctua. I just have always had awesome luck out of them. I'm using a http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835608019 and love it. Works awesome. Bit on the pricy side but in my case I can hear the case fans louder than the cpu even at full load.

Looks like the Hyper212 is 158.5mm tall by itself so... you'll need that kind of clearance from the cpu to the side of the case. Here's a link: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835103065

If I got into the beta, I'd probably take a shower, go to shop, make some food, loiter around a bit (maybe browse some forums or check out news) and then go to sleep perhaps.

This isn't really a question. I'd be at home, while work would be wondering where I went.

I have trouble with Norton. It won't let me run it and deletes it. Is there any thing that can be done to fix this. Please help.

That's a hard question. Of course I get all the necessities done, working, eating, sleeping (a little...). But when it comes to spare time, i'm kind of in a sickly MWO fever right now...

Don't wanna play anything else, don't wanna play guitar, don't wanna hang with my girlfriend, don't wanna hang with anyone, don't wanna read, don't wanna go to sport, don't wanna listen to music...

Just hangin' round this site uselessly, browsing the BattleTechWiki, and the game isn't even close... AAAAHHRGH
