    I think I'll give this one a look. DayZ is quickly overtaking my life!

    Oh I'm all over that like a fat kid on a cupcake. Already planning on a better GPU and better ancils...

    IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIVE!! The parts were ordered. They arrived. I got to work and now.... It lives! My first build is a rousing success. I eventually settled on: AMD 3.something Ghz x6 core processer ASUS M9 A97 Motherboard Corsair 600w PSU Corsair 16GB DDR3 RAM 1GB XFX 5870 GPU A flashy ATX...

    Yeah, I got a few little nicks when I striped my old Dell tower down last week. Now there was a crappy setup inside.

    One tries. I'll hopefully have the new build by mid week, as soon as I've decided on the parts and got them delivered.

    Ah I get you, mate. Still got a lot to learn in this.

    I'm converting to SSD as I've heard how good they are, the HDD will be a data/backup drive. Based on the level of advice I've had here, I'll start fresh. Already got a parts list so I'll just add a MB to it. I'm ok to use the tower as a chassis though aren't i? Cheers guys, there will be more...

    Today, as a prelude to my new build project, I opened up my PC tower: to see what was inside. This is what I found: Bit blurred I know. I removed the CPU fan and took a better pic: Looks a bit dated maybe (I was impressed to see an Asus MB), but I'm wondering if I could put new parts on...

    Fair one. I'll try and find some beans and water bottles first. As an aside, what's peoples views on this setup? LN33703 HOT SELLER 120GB OCZ Vertex 2E, 2.5" SSD, SATA II - 3Gb/s, SandForce 1222, MLC-Flash, Read 285MB/s, Write 275MB/s, 50k IOPS £58.94inc VAT   Dec 1 Inc LN41659...

    Just a little bit, mate. I'm using Parallels with Windows 8 to run DayZ and ArmA 2 with the BAF and PMC add ons if anyone was wondering how I did it. It's not the mist high-end model either, the basic 15" MBP with the 500GB HDD and 4GB RAM, so it's not built for this level of gaming and it shows...

    Sorted, Gents. A single 'greased weasel sh*t' GPU is the way ahead then! As an aside, I managed to get DayZ running on my macbook pro today. Running a little slow, but I'm hooked.

    Right... Question time again. Is it possible to put two GPUs in the same PC and have them working in harmony on games? If so, how?

    Your Rig...

    very impressive yes... especially when the clip of DayZ popped up at the end, good FPS rates for it.
