1. what graphics settings will this be able to run crysis on?
2.Will it be able to play games like Starcraft 2, World in conflict, EVE, and Battlefield Bad company 2 on max settings? (not at the same time)
3. any other cases that you would recommend (mainly a question for Jasuchan 
)
4.any Problems with this setup as far as you can see?
thanks for all your help Jasuchan and to all the oher people the last few weeks for answering my questions about this
Ps all the parts can be found on tigerdirect or newegg (unless stated otherwise (i think one thing comes from amazon) )
i was thinking of this case
Auzentech GMC R-4 Bulldozer Case
http://www.xoxide.com/auzentech-gmc-bulldozer-case.html
You might want to spend more on your video card than you do on your case.
than i need a less expensive case, so i can get a more expensive card…
Other Cases i like
http://www.xoxide.com/psi-cyclone-case-black.html
http://www.xoxide.com/aerocool-vxe-performance-case.html
http://www.xoxide.com/aerocool-aeroengine-plus-case.html
and this case
http://www.xoxide.com/aspire-x-cruiser-case-silver.html
I AM SERIOUSLY CONSEDERING THESE 2 CASES OVER ALL OTHERS

some google cached pages load too slowly… how to prevent it from happening?
Posted by admin in Google tablet Monday, 31 May 2010 05:14 2 Comments
i installed firebug into firefox 2 and looked at a cached site that takes too long to load:
http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:YXGDCeSBaPsJ:www.mepis.org/node/14065+%22relative+mode%22+tablet+stylus
based on my observations, what is occurring is that when the browser encounters any externally linked javascript or stylesheets synxtax, it attempts to load them synchronously, regardless if the target server is actually online.
in this case, since the web server is actually offline, the cached URLs point to resources that cannot be retreived. each request goes for about 17 seconds before it times out (based on my browser settings)
in this case, there are 8 externally linked CSS/JS files that cant be downloaded. it takes about 17 times 8 seconds (2.26 mins approx) to finally timeout on the last externally linked file, and only then does the cached page appear.
does anyone know any programs which can recognize if im visiting a google cache and not try to retrieve ANY external links?
the first guy obviously doesnt understand the principles of web design. this isnt a site specific problem, its more of a browser specific issue…
case in point:
http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geu801UBNIceQAG9tXNyoA/SIG=17dvvnnsa/EXP=1209311669/**http%3a//216.109.125.130/search/cache%3fei=UTF-8%26p=%2522relative%2bmode%2522%2btablet%2bstylus%26fr=moz2%26u=www.mepis.org/node/14065%26w=%2522relative%2bmode%2522%2btablet%2bstylus%26d=Lv4XEjWxQhU2%26icp=1%26.intl=us
this yahoo page also suffers the same fate.
bah, i should have known not to ask such a technical question on this site. people only answer questions that can be filled with conjecture or copied from wikipedia after a short search. anything that requires thinking apparently scares everyone away.
