I told Craig (24) that once he had a chance to play on a better pc things would change. We did the build thursday night and it was pretty sweet. I'm really happy for him and yet again I have knocked myself out another sure kill. First it was Noob and then it was Capt...Now we just need to get him out of that miniscule 17 inch monitor and 800x600 res..

17"? Bah

But how is it only running at 800x600?

I have a 15.9" CRT that runs at 1280x1024.

Used to have a 15" LCD that ran at 1024x768. No way his 17" only goes to 800x600

Gratz Capt, I think I shouted and threw my arms up when I got mine!

and yet again I have knocked myself out another sure kill. First it was Noob and then it was Capt...

lol I'd be a good candidate for your next sure kill loss, I'm prolly just too far away. I do need to upgrade though...

I think he only ran 800x600 because things begin to look pretty small game wise once you move to bigger res on smaller screen. I'm using a 22 lcd @ 1680x1080 - Things still look reasonable due to the screen size, but still took me awhile to adjust cause I was used to playing on a 19...

Heres what I use:
