ya. They have AF labeled as Detailed Distance. Check out these comparisons of Minimal and Maximum detail of everything. In the screenshot on the first page as u scroll down shows that this guy has 1GB of RAM being read. Says he is using the GTX 280, weird how mine isnt being read.

PCGH - Review/Benchmark: GTA 4 (PC): Graphics settings compared plus system requirements

im gonna shut down my computer n reapply the MX-2, temps were 64 C when i turned town the fan speed to 25% using Rivatuner (idk now to access the fan speed controller in CCC).

EDIT:

i recommend waiting for the GTA4 patch because the game is causing problems. A few times the game crashed because DEP was making it do that. I'm gonna fix that right now.

Woot: The Community: Random Crap

I wonder why do people buy 22x dvd burners when majority of the media out there support up to 16x
not to mention faster speed you burn = higher coaster rate..... it just puzzles me

That's insane man and seriously that guy's an idiot. And what's that like under $20 worth of parts, too? I hate people who always think you're trying to rip them off when you know you only make like $2 on the sale lol.

Not sure if he just cheap or some one that care about the environment. Long story short is that be broke all the fan and rentension bracket for his CPU and Motherboard.
Sadly both items are not off the shelf items that you can purchase from any computer shop. He's lucky that keep the Socket 478 retention bracket from dead motherboard. Like i have broken about 2 of those in the past, and I do get people walking into the shop asking for them as they have done the same thing.

This as been the second time this guy show up in my shop. Previously, he showed up a few days earlier asking he if it's possible for me to super glue the rentension bracket.
Lost count the number of time i told him "No. Not with the amount of force required to hold the Heat Sink and Fan in place. It will snap right back off."

Some people do not listen. Some people just need to find things out the hard way.
