congrats man...don't worry about the one 8gig stick vs 2 4gig sticks, just make sure you have it in the slot that your motherboard says you should if you are only using one (it should say in the manual).

i actually bent a pin on my old rig when i put in the cpu...i bent it back and it still worked but i was pissed when i did that.

as for forcing plugs into sockets...yeah that can be a bytch, it's usually a tight fit.
i always have trouble with the hard drive connections for some reason.

keep us updated.
Still working on getting this thing to boot windows- might bite the bullet and go grab an optical drive and copy of windows 7 :sadcam:

you don't really need an operating system...bios is surprisingly very fun all on it's own.
:comeon:

Im downloading another copy of windows now I am guessing there was an issue with the first one because I just get a blank screen when I try to boot from the USB

Free post.

Just came in 2nd place in a deathmatch on Max Payne 3 free aim mode. I'm using a controller too. Nothing but a pistol. :patrice:

unfortunately AC3 was my first AC game. I read somewhere recently that Ubi looked to Far Cry 3 more than AC3 for ideas for AC4

i never got into AC...if i were to play, what should be the first game i play?

Everybody loves Brotherhood the best. I'd start with AC:BF though, it's like a new game (new protagonist, new way of playing, FC3 influences). The meta-story between the games is fukking corny anyway (illuminati this...blah, blah, blah). Plunder the Spaniards and British breh, it's fun as shyt.

This man is a god in the triple-monitoring world. His program is really meant for surround gaming, but you can use it to get rid of the black bars too:

(also, it's not listed on his website, but AC:BF is supported:

(I've used his program so much I actually donated money to him. Hayden is a better programmer than most game developers. He'll put triple monitor gaming support in a game in 24 hours, while it takes some developers months...:dead:)

Damn shame. AC3 is ass, I might get an AC IV key for free and if I do I'll throw that your way
