Today is the day, for the first time in my life that a beta game client actually killed my RAM! In the past, I have experienced a situation before where I fried my graphic card by flashing the wrong bios. This time, however, is the first time where after I experience ultra cool graphics, the PC started to have problems.

For example, Enemy Territory : Quake Wars started to crash to desktop for no good reason, same goes to Guild Wars. Guild Wars was so nice and even suggested that my processor could be faulty.

After discussing with bro, I suspect that the RAM could have died. Bro commented that the heat from the processor and graphics card probably cooked the RAM. After taking out the RAMs piece by piece, and experimenting with individual RAM pieces, I came to the conclusion that the pair of 256MB mushkin RAMS that me bro bought for it is faulty.

Bloody Flagship Studios made a beta game client that killed my RAM, brilliant aye?

I think I have a bit too much of Enemy Territory : Quake Wars, been playing it everyday since I got my copy from The Software Boutique. Check out the screen shot attached below:

The actual url would be: http://stats.enemyterritory.com/leaders/total/total_xp?page=380

However, the actual ranking would probably fluctuate often, since xp are easily obtainable. Just join any ranked servers and start fraggin’, its fraggin’ time yo!

Again, the above url shows all my achievements in Enemy Territory : Quake Wars. I’m a Corporal now, heheh. All new players start off as a Conscript, Private, Private First Class, then Corporal.

Besides being in the top 10,000 now, I am also a rank 4,700++ Icarus pilot! Woot!

Rank 1,200++ Obliterator player! Wohoo!

I have been playing this new game recently, check out my stats at the following link :-

As usual, I bought my copy at The Software Boutique, at a retail price of RM199 for a “Limited Collector’s Edition”. Given the slightly steep price of this limited collector’s edition, the game box is rather crappy.

First off, 1 out of 10 of the “Collector Cards” got stuck to the game box, due to sloppy adhesive tape placement. After a few days, the box itself started to fall apart. The game box production team should have used better adhesive material. Blah. At least I am having fun fragging people online.
