I'm sure we had one of these before, but as we've got nowhere else on the forums for general game chat, here it is....

Must say that I'm quite tempted to get the game but I've yet to play the first. I'd get the PC version, I guess, as they've patched it now.

Just like the first one then.
Sneak... sneak... sneak... Whoops, spotted! Kill Kill Kill...
I wouldn't have it any other way though.

Overclocking is old school pb, so why now?
EDIT: My cpu temp is 32 degrees and no overclocking ... arctic cooling for you;¬)

Kind of with you on this one DL. With the absolute mass of 4.5Ghz or higher multi core CPU's around, I'm not sure what overclocking would actually gain you. Other than problems, that is...
There are stacks of reports from gamers about OC'd hardware having problems with various games and apps, so it seems like a bit of a trade-off, and not a very good one at that; more truly unnecessary speed in exchange for instability in many programs.
I'd only consider water cooling just to say I'd done it at least once.
My CPU stays at a steady 38 degrees with the stock cooler...

Because I'm testing a cooler for review.

When it's free and basic over clocking is included in the cooler's software then it's worth doing! Stress tested it today and cpu got to 42 degrees at its highest.

Overclocked a system once, never could be bothered again (and quite honestly never had the need to).
Although, I have to say I have been tempted by the idea of water cooling a number of times, particularly as my PC case has a convenient cavity in the top for a radiator and fans... Seems almost a shame not to...

I've two exhaust fans on the top of my HAF-X case ... only use one ;¬)

Managed to pop one of the grommets from thE backplate yesterday while putting the cooler in. Hopefully the cooler is screwed on to the cpu tight enough still, but impossible to tell.
