    PCSPECIALIST Anyone playing RO2/Rising Storm?

    Well since I noticed a very chunky 7gb update for Red Orchestra 2 the other day I've been a bit curious as to what has changed. I assumed it was an expansion download like what BF:BC2 did with Vietnam ages ago so decided to give it a whirl and sure enough, I now had the Rising Storm expansion as...

    PCSPECIALIST I bought Blops2 and now I feel dirty.

    I've grown up on CoD, and I don't just mean Cod4. I've played them since the first one came out and heavily started playing Cod3 on the xbox as it was the only decent game that allowed splitscreen online. I then heavily got addicted to Cod4 and accrued 30days playtime, all challenges complete...

    PCSPECIALIST It has arrived, but something is missing

    Yea like Rakk said, I'd imagine they'd put it in the big box as that's what they'd do if you'd order keyboard + mouse, etc. Give them a call and I'm sure they'll get them out to you asap :) Congratulations on the box though dude! Now you can have fun with your imagination like spongebob and...

    PCSPECIALIST Most appropriate budget AMD build for games like Guild Wars 2?

    Hi guys, I know I normally try and dish out advice myself but I tend to only input into things I've had experience in; budget AMD builds not being one of them. My girlfriend has started to get into gaming a little bit and is beginning to see how easily one can become absorbed into a game. At...

    PCSPECIALIST Has anybody ever created a "schedule" to help them to stay focused on a game

    Has anybody ever created a "schedule" to help them to stay focused on a game The title is a bit misleading but basically I have too many games. Far too many £3 Steam purchases, far too many $4 humble bundles, far too many 75% full game bundle offers! I have an abundance of perfectly good single...

    PCSPECIALIST Flickering screen on Farcry 3 during fast motion?

    I've optimised Farcry 3 using Nvidia's tool and I achieve about 60fps on the settings it suggests (pretty much maxed) with my GTX670. I'm playing on a Benq XL2411T, 144hz, 1ms response, etc etc. Basically what I'm trying to say is I shouldn't be having any performance issues with ghosting or...

    PCSPECIALIST Is F1 2012 worth getting for 120hz?

    Hi guys, I just received my Benq XL2411T and I'm looking at games that I may benefit from the 120hz and I notice that F1 2012 is only £8.50 on Steam at the moment. Now I have it for my xbox but surely it must be massively superior on a PC with a better graphics card and higher refresh rate? Or...

    PCSPECIALIST Importance of having DisplayPort?

    I was just wondering how crucial it is to buy a monitor with a DisplayPort? My monitor choices have been narrowed down to the Benq XL2420T 120hz, Benq XL2411T 144hz or the Dell Ultrasharp U2312hm IPS 60hz. The winner seems to be the XL2411T as it is an updated model of the 2420 and has fixed...

    PCSPECIALIST So 'hypothetically' what could happen if your desktop fell off the desk?

    So as the title says... hypothetically, if one was to own a creature such as... oh I don't know, a 7 month old cat... And say you had your desktop set up on a desk which is about 3 foot off the floor. And say that cat decided to use the rig to jump 6 feet into the air onto a nearby wardrobe at...

    PCSPECIALIST Native Resolution....1080i... Confused.

    I'll try to keep this short, I use a 32 inch Hitachi LCD for my PC at the moment and I have it hooked up via HDMI. Now I had problems when I first got my pc with the screen being cut off around the sides when I set the resolution to 1920x1080. I was having to use it in 1766x992 to fit the whole...

    PCSPECIALIST What keyboard and mouse setup would you guys recommend?

    Hi guys, I'm currently using the Logitech MK260 Wireless Keyboard + Mouse setup as quite frankly, I didn't have any money left after buying my rig x) I also didn't realise how important having a decent M+K could be as BF3 is pretty much unplayable for me with this setup. What I'm after is...

    PCSPECIALIST How easy is adding an SSD to a current desktop?

    I got my desktop in November and had opted against an SSD due to budget and wanting the GTX670 more than faster boot times so I settled for a 1tb caviar black instead. 350gb of games later and I'm starting to think my rig is... not struggling... but like slowing down on boot ups and general...
