Both Bioshock games are on sale on Steam for 5 bucks each. There is also a 4 pack available that I might buy for the guild.

For anyone who is looking to upgrade your video card check this one out. It's a great deal for a card that will play TOR pretty well.(And Brink :P)

INSANE DEAL

1GB GT 430 for 60$ Just posted today! This is a DX11 card for crying out loud...

EDIT

Upon further review, this may not be a great card for gaming. This is the replacement for the GT 240. This card, though it got great reviews, is underpowered compared to others in the same price range.

Just my opinion but I wouldn't recommend the 430 for gaming, My brother bought one and it couldn't play games as well as my old 9600 GSO.

Rockstar Games Bully and a Max Payne 2 pack for $3.75 each this weekend (Apr 16-17) on steam.

I have an EVGA gtx460SE Overclocked myself to 800/1600/1800

This thing SCREAMS. The stock 460 is even better but at the price point this was a much better deal.(used on ebay for $80.00w/shipping)

1920x1200 resolution

BFBC2 ULTRA 4xAA 60FPS

CRYSIS FULLY MAXED EVERYTHING 60FPS

MAFIA 2 MAX 8XAA (physx off) had to set shadows to med to get 45FPS

DIRT2 MAX EVERYTHING 60FPS

MASSEFFECT 2 MAX EVERYTHING 60FPS


I Do have 6 gig of ram and an i7 lightly overclocked to 3.2gHz but this card is so killer at the price point, made a HUGE difference.

I am putting my old EVGA GTX 9800 back in today to use as a dedicated phsyx card so that will be even cooler.

Hope that helps...this card is awesome you will not be disappointed.

Cool, thanks for tip

It was a pop up when I logged into steam this morning... I'll look again and see if I can find it.

edit: I must have logged into steam before they shifted the deal... its actually a Rockstar games weekend.. yesterday was Bully and MP 1+2.. today is the whole GTA series up to San Andreas for $7.50
