Yes its definitely worth it! The game never seems to get boring for me, even though i only play a couple of maps, and counter strike is the only shooter that always draws me back in even if i havent played it for a very long time. It does require some skill, but i think compared to cs 1.6 its not as hardcore (i.e. its more noob friendly, easier to get kills and use the weapons). Although, you will probably find that a gun like the ak47 will take a lot of practice to master, but its worth it XD. So definitely buy it, i've put nearly 200 hours into it :O

[QUOTE="sn4k3_64"]The psu cost me £25 lol, but if u look it seems like it has a good amount of amperage and also i would of thought 650 watts is plenty. Btw i plan on oc'ing the card as well, so i hope i wont have any problems :S Wattage means almost nothing. A good 450W with an 80plus cert and 35amps on 12v lines can be alot better than a noname 650W psu with 60-70% efficiency and 20-25Amps on the 12v lines Real question here is what the efficiency of that Psu is and how many amps it has on the 12v lines ( if i'm not mistaken gtx460 needs at least 24amps on 12v lines ) So while with that Psu seems to be ok for 1 gtx460 i wouldnt advice going sli on that Well, it has about 39 amps on both the 12v lines, so even when i oc it i should be more than ok..i cant sli anyway, my motherboard doesnt support it. Thanks for helping guys :P[QUOTE="ionusX"]
CiT is budget psu's.. there okay in most cases.. i wouldnt sli on that psu for all the money in the world and none of their psu's and 80+ certified.. despite what they may claim.
TC how much is it?

Thanks btw, sounds like i shouldnt have any problems at all, even when OC'ing :)I don't know much about that brand of power supply, but it looks like you should be fine if you use the molex to 6-pin adapter in concert with the PCI-E 6-pin that the PSU already has. GTX 460 barely needs the 2nd PCI-E power plug anyways. Like 10-15 watts less and it could've done with a single 6-pin if I'm not mistaken. TDP of the card is 160 watts. The PCI-E slot can supply 75 watts, the 6-pin can supply 75 as well. So you're at 150 watts there without the help of the 2nd 6-pin connection.
Go for it.

Btw i plan on oc'ing the card as well, so i hope i wont have any problems :SHi guys, just wondering if i was to use 1x 6 pin pci/e and one 6-pin to 4 pin molex adapter for a gtx 460 card would it work at full power? Here is my psu if you need more info>http://www.aone.co.uk/ProdInfo.ASP?ProductID=2460I'm assuming it should, but would like some advice please! :)
If i dont get the most expensive armour/weapons and the best titles, then i will be a mere mortal. it is not optional, i have no choice but to become godlike![QUOTE="sn4k3_64"][QUOTE="Deadly_Fatalis"]Titles are something to do in your free time, no one is forcing you to do them. The 15k armor and the 1.5k armor have the same stats, the only difference is aesthetics, which again, is optional. Weapons, while are harder to obtain, most aren't at a very expensive price, or bosses can be farmed in order to be obtained.JONO51
Yes but the titles are largely worthless anyway and just a checkbox to say you did something and none of the weapons skins or armour sets are expensive at all. Sure, some weapons of low reqs etc are worth a lot because they don't drop anymore but they can still be had at a higher req and for next to nothing.
Yeah thats true, but the game is all about how you character looks, its gay really lol, just full of people trying to show off their titles (in pvp that is). When i used 2 play, armour like FOW would take you absolutely ages to get and making gold on the game wasnt easy trust me i played it for 4 years and never really had all that much in terms of gold.Lol are you joking? Did you not see how time consuming most of the titles were? How long it took to make money and buy decent weapons/armour sets? Maybe you didnt play long enough. Put it this way, titles like the glad take about a solid 4 months or more of playing pvp just to achieve. Its very time consuming if you want to well in the pvp and even the pve really. No, I'm not joking. If I was.. it would have put "jk" or "Just kidding." Heh. I guess after having played World of Warcraft, Guild Wars is nothing in terms of content. I reached endgame in vanilla Guild Wars in less than 3 months and got fissure armor. I pvp'ed enough, but I didn't bother with it much because it was lackluster. I highly doubt you've played WOW. It took me WELL over 4 months to earn Grand Marshal. If anyone knows about that grind, they would probably agree with me. I wasnt talking about completing the game, i was more mentioning the titles of which some seem almost impossible to get (i.e. the pvp titles like rank 15 hero etc).[QUOTE="sn4k3_64"][QUOTE="Elann2008"] One thing about Guild Wars that I liked was that I never really felt like I was "left behind." It's one of those MMO's where you could hop in and out and play at your leisure or play diligently. In that sense, it didn't feel time consuming to me. World of Warcraft on the other hand, had the opposite effect. Elann2008
[QUOTE="sn4k3_64"][QUOTE="Litchie"]Might the ridiculous model-looking characters have something to do with it? Or maybe the comparison to WoW?Elann2008No it was a decent game back in the day, but its getting on now and i stopped playing ages ago because they never really add on new content.. Plus guild wars 2 is coming out in a while and it looks sick, but im not sure i want to get involved in it, once you realise how time consuming it is..
