    Terrible isnt it.

    Why on earth did they get the CLOSED EUROPEAN beta sign ups back in JUNE and only start it late last month.

    I bet the beta only lasts 4 weeks too.

    With this and HL2 on the brink of release, I'm seriously dying for a new computer here. I've been living on an AMD Duron 800, 320 Megs of 133 SDRAM and a GeForce 2 Ti forever. At least once a week I price an AMD 64 3000+ on an Nforce 3 mobo with a SATA HD, 512 Corsair DDR, and I allocate about $300 (canadian) for a video card, since that changes so frequently. I figure it'll either be a 9800 pro or maybe the upcomming X700. I have heard good things about the nvidia 6600 gt though, but could I ever buy another nvidia card?

    Shaggy If you truly want to go higher video card don't go 64bit. Get an Athlon XP 3200+ 1GIG DDR and a x800 pro. You won't need to upgrade untill some time after longhorn.

    That sounds like fun, but from the local shoppe, an XP 3200+ is $290 (all figures in canadian pesos), compared to the 64 3000+ at $220, I was going to grab the 512 stick with intentions of getting a second when the cash was flowing (dual channel baby) and forget about the x800, for some reason video cards are retarded prices in canada. i saw your comment on a 9800 pro by msi that translated to $230 CAD from newegg. 9600 xt's from the shop in town (best one i know of) are more like $280+. So I had planned to import the card. newegg looks to be starting x800 pros at $500 cad (plus duty/delivery/borderguard bribes, things to get it in canada). I wont be able to buy myself the system I <i>really</i> want until I escape this perpetual schooling and move into the perpetual income stage of my life. I built my existing baby like 5 years ago and she still holds up, but she's very high maintenance if I want any semblance of performance from her. I doubt the next one I build will have to last that long.
    I can get that 64 3000+, 512 corsair, 19' crt, 120 gig sata hd, dual layer dvd burner, cd rw/dvd combo, modest case, 420 W power, logitech mx700.... cant think of what else other than ~$300 put aside for a video card... all for about $1800 which would be nice if I had that much. As long as it plays the hell out of HL2 and world of warcraft i'll be happy for now.

    But I'd love to hear more from you if you've got any other ideas <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    You guys do realize that the European closed beta only started 8 days ago and the US one started several months before that?

    Europe will get its open beta, but it will probably be very short.

    FYI to all you Non Americans.


    Blizzard is basing the server restrictions around the billing address entered in case you want to choose servers. Also make sure you connect via a NA proxy that does not forward your IP.
