bothereds upgrade, wow!
Hi all,
thanks to all who advised me in my upgrade thread. I did the upgrade this morning. Shorty came round and we started, one hour later we had finished, and I mean really finished. Booted up with just the C drive connected and one optical and the PC booted straight into windows. Just had to install motherboard drivers and a few bits, connect the other drives up and it all works. Easiest and best upgrade ever. I tried the Crysis demo and used auto detect for settings, it turned the res and every other setting to max and plays so smooth. Anything I ever said about Intel I take back, superb CPU. Off now to amend sig, sort out folding, play games and generally gloat my way through the rest of the day. Thanks again all, especially Dan for his time and company. Cheers all.
A very happy bothered.

For a laugh, we installed the Intel ones and rebooted. It worked just fine. Played games, tested t'internet and everything else. Smooth as butter and fast.
Just when I think I have seen everything that this technology has to offer, it throws me a curveball. How wierd but it saved a considerable amount of effort on our part and Crysis looks amazing on mr bothereds new uber rig!
Thanks for the brews and humour sir, it's always a worthwhile visit in my book
All I can say is that the playing field has much improved- soon for both parties- and you have on sweet system
Good on ya, Bothered. Enjoy the upgrade.
