in Ram Post #191050
it isnt difficult, people just go out of their way to make it sound like it is. In real world terms a lot of stuff makes no difference whatsoever, but it does pay to heed stuff like 'never ever ever ever mix ram modules' when ram is so absolutely vital to the correct functioning of a system.

1GB CT12864Z40B DDR PC3200 ? CL=3 ? UNBUFFERED ? NON-ECC ? DDR400 ? 2.6V ? 128Meg x 64
What does this mean? US $131.99

1GB CT12864Z335 DDR PC2700 ? CL=2.5 ? UNBUFFERED ? NON-ECC ? DDR333 ? 2.5V ? 128Meg x 64
What does this mean? US $131.99

From crucial.com, they're the same price but the 3200 has a faster clock core and slower cache latency. Just get another 2700, bigger numbers != better in everything, e.g. waist size, chance of heart attack within 5 years, etc.

little for your intents and purposes, go for 3200 as its cheaper AS LONG AS ITS THE SAME AS YOUR CURRENT 1GIG MODULE!!

thats still mixing RAM, you should only have modules of the same type and size

I'll give that narbacular drop game a try, its annoying when an innovative concept is only innovative because its in a mainstream game

Actually, i'll probably buy episode 2 because of TF2 (if they get this crazy new style right) not because of OMGPORTALZ.

Valve are good programmers, but saying they can do it where everyone else has failed 'becuz they is the best' is a bit silly.

Steam is the best content delivery system I'll have to agree with you there, but I'd still rather buy a boxed game that doesnt require the internet to work thanks.

Valve are great programmers - thats why halflifes installer deleted your c: if you put it in c:halflife and why hl2's installer doesnt work if you dont install CS:S. Stop being such fucking fanboys, jesus.

You cannot code for every eventuality and something like this puts immense strain on mappers as well. Imaging trying to make any kind of challenging puzzle where the user has this kind of power.

it could work as a multiplayer fun mod, but itd still be so comically exploitable, just because it looks simple doesnt mean its not immensly comiplicated coding and liable to break

an impressive addition to the source engine, but you could never put that gun in a game, its too open to exploitation in the same way as red factions 'destroy anything'. Also shameless motion blur, use real footage ya bastards!

It seems to me that it would be extremely difficult to have this as a dynamic recording.
