FEAR, Call of Duty 2, and Quake 4 are out.

The x1800 launched, the XLs can be found, as can x850 crossfire cards, the XTs should be around fairly shortly (early november?)

the 7800 GTX now comes in ridiculously overclocked packs by asus, XFX, and EVGA

....etc

That may be the truth but don't by either for multiplayer. Quake 4 multi is horrid and F.E.A.R. doesn't have an anti-cheat.

F.E.A.R. and Quake 4 are completely different games and I don't think one kills the other because they both have bad and good aspects. Quake 4 is a bit longer.

dude after I got out of the hospital and finished up treatment for my lyme disease...I lost so much weight that I Was down to like 110. I shit you not. it sucks and I totally know what you're going through. I was weak and lost alot of muscle mass. I still havent gained all my weight back either...which makes me think that I might possibly still be sick. But anyway check this, when I worked to get my muscles back they came back even better than before. The biggest bonus was that I had this terrible muscle pain in my left shoulder and now its totally gone.

Anyway hang in there and give us regular updates k man?
