Most people don't use wallets any more so that was funny and yes it helps to have at least a little something to put into it... LOL

@Jeff,

I do like the NATO 7.62 round as well, if you have a reloader it's not tough to throw together some ammo. You'd really want to have a reloader if you were going to buy the 5.7 as well. You could also then make the Government tips for it which you can't buy without good reason.

 

Most people don't use a wallet anymore? Where do you put your license, atm card, health insurance card? :S Family photos!

 

LOL, I think he was pulling your leg.

 

Next thing you know, you'll tell me that other uniquely British sayings are going extinct. Do you still say "Put a shrimp on the Barbie" when its time to eat?

That was australia, surely?

 

I'm a bit gullible at times :S

Seen these chairs, wondering if its worth it?

 

People do often pay crazy money for office chairs - if they're good I can see why. I'm currently sitting on a £25 Tesco office chair. The one I bought a few years back was great until it started to fall apart. This one's been horrendous to start with. Spend more than £25 on a chair, it's worth the investment

 

I spent $100 on mine. I fall asleep in it sometimes :S

Incredible price shaff! Batman that is

thats my current one, got it at half price, 8 years ago! moved 3 houses with me. Thinking of an upgrade

 

To get more performance out of the architecture, AMD are releasing high clock speed versions of the Piledriver architecture, topping out with the FX-9590 at 4.70Ghz stock, 5.00Ghz Turbo. 220W TDP. Discuss.

 

Instead of being packaged with stock heat sink and fan will it come with water cooling?

 

I think the review samples of the FX-8150 originally came with small watercooler units, like the CoolIT/Corsair things you can buy. Presumably the retail version of this will ship with one of those, it'll be fairly expensive if that's the case.

 

I meant that as a joke, but with that TDP you would need more than air. That and a good job to pay the electric bill that will surely rise.

 

If you ran one maxed out 24/7 it'd probably cost an extra $200 a year (versus a standard Piledriver/Bulldozer CPU), maybe a bit less depending on the cost of your electricity.
