Anything to put a smile back on my face, please feel freee to rip away! Will be here until Weds at least.

i7 Haswell 4790, Asus Z97-E, 32GB DDR 1600, 1080gtx running just above stock clock speeds. Am now mobo limited.

I'm going to have to come visit your workshop one day, I'd love to see this kit in action and possibly help/hinder you.

I don't think I am, right now I can't even run 1080/60 in Ultra on GRW (but then Ubisoft don't optimise very well, and BF1 was very pretty even on a 980). I've never seen a 144 so no idea what it even looks like.

You're not the first person to bang on about how good 144 is to me this week, really think I might have to invest. Want to do the BMW brakes first though. So in theory, or practice, what would you consider 'better'? Running 1080p/60 on full Ultra, or running 1440p/144 but having to drop graphics options down to get the frame rate? For me I've never bought into the 4K trap and frame rate is far more important, but at the same time i don't want to run on Medium just to get that frame rate IYSWIM.

I think it depends where BMW want to position it, you'd reckon somewhere around the £80k mark to give a nice gap between that and the i8, so perhaps £70k-£75k for the Yota? Performance will be okay but not stunning, it's going to be a heavy old thing I think

Are there as many foreign language persons in every hospital across the UK? I'm not remotely fussed, but I think I've only spoken to one or two 'English' staff since I've been here, and there were porters. Everyone is friendly apart from grumpy bollocks nurse, do we just have this old fashioned idea that there's only a few non-nationals in the NHS when actually the majority are either EU, non-EU for within one generation of either? The government is going to need to work damn hard to keep/recruit NHS staff. Maybe it'll be better, maybe they can strike better deals with EU companies to provide UK training in return for more staff? I dunno.

Definitely not! Just waiting to arrange a time for the hospital transfer now, no real rush as at least I've got the authorisation now which can be the awkward bit. Although potentially not as awkward as making phone calls discussing how you're about to get moved to a private room with drugs on demand and proper tasty food, when you're surrounded by older guys who are struggling to get a nurse across just to bring them a commode

Megalols :lol: Consultant was ace, really nice guy, am probably going to be moved across to private this afternoon. Likely to be in for another three days minimum. I just love how stuff just gets sorted, no faffing, 'ave it. Might be able to get the op done before I go away to Rome at the end of May, if the infection settles down enough.

Nah, I genuinely think it was a good looking car in the flesh. Oh btw, if you need to get hold of me then do it via PM on here, I've no access to emails right now and I suspect t you might want to chat

I'm surprised it only needs 8L of oil though, not so much about the 18mpg

In fairness I had to listen through broken headphones on a hospital ward, so didn't really crank it sounded absolutely lovely, like a proper v8 should

I actually tried to take one earlier but felt a bit creepy/pervy so wimped out Cheers man, that's good to read and know what to expect. I thought I was feeling better but when the morphine failed it all just kicked straight back in again, so definitely not even close yet. Temps are about 39/38 at the moment, so can't get my temps down yet. Just want to get the op done and dusted. The consultant is literally just starting his round here now so hopefully I'll know more in about 5 mins.

Sounds like it's worth a look in, wonder if I can get it before MEA comes out...

They are though. No-one who has put them on has found them to be anything other than awesome, and certainly they're a billion times better than any runflats. If you want to buy a cheaper tyre that's fine, but don't kid yourself it's a patch on the MPSS/MPS4/MPS4S. Assuming you're on a 370 as the 350 didn't come with runflats, the 19" MPS4S are the things to be wearing this year.

Oi loiks thart. A lot. Nice work dude

This is genuinely awesome. Again. Can you stop making the rest of us look like lazy, useless incompetent halfwits please mate?!! Well, I know you'll struggle with me, by it's everyone else I'm thinking of honestly, just love these threads.

That's no way to talk about Chris

They fixed the machine! I've broken it again

Still love that colour combo. How are you getting on with it? Have you 'figured out' the way to drive rear engine yet?

Hurray, you can buy a proper car now! ...Oh.

And he was black, back in a time when it wasn't cool to be so. That should never be underestimated, especially in institutionalised racist America.

Man maths ftw I'm looking at 144mhz monitors for my PC. With the 1080, I've now officially switched to PCMR. Until the Xbox One Xtreme is released at E3 with Forza 7 in 4K and a VR headset to match, of course...

And thank you all, it means a lot, honestly.

I've just broken the auto morphine machine I was given, noooooooooo :( Help me pretty nurses, help me!
