I was thinking about some more RAM, but if I asked my mom for that, she wouldnt get it because she doesnt think of that as a christmas present.

You've probably got to connect the rear speakers to Line In and sub & centre to Mic then make a change either in the system sound properties or BIOS.


Snata didn't bring me hardware, just a hard time. :(

Maxtor DiamondMax10 300GB SATA HDD

Presumably the two 300GB SATA drives are in RAID0 to provided lightning fast access to your pr0n.

Western Digital 250GB hard drive... because I think my current drive is about to blow up. It's gotten really loud the past week or two.

It fits into 3 spare 5.25 bays and converts them into 4 3.5 HDD bays... it was made for the CM Stacker but works for any case with 3 spare CD bays, great for extra HDD space.... and it has a 120mm fan for extra cooling

He's a bit late, but I heard he's going to get me one of those new X-FI soundcards.

Which probably won't work with your weird French electricity.

Besides, how good does your soundcard have to be to listen to Edith Piaf?

I think it's more an e-penis thing rather than a sound quality issue. :P

as far as the quality goes....
I'm thinking my onboard was better than the POS Creative I installed :dry:
be interesting to hear the X-Fi....

nForce 3 > Audigy 2 :01:

nForce 3 > Audigy 2 :01:I could understand this if it was a Chinese made soundcard (they are very cunning, apparently), but being US made I'd be very surprised if it produced any French linguistics of even approaching acceptably quality, and I wouldn't have been surprised to have found out that French had been completely filtered out. :dry:

Of course, when I said acceptable quality I naturally meant acceptable to the French, it is well known than any foreign sounding blurb would have many Americans fainting with the words "Oh, you speak French" on their lips.
