I'm 18 and I have just passed my CBT (I took my test on a 50cc Scooter) Because I'm 18, can I ride a 125cc Bike? and is it ok if it's a 6 speed manual?

For example - http://www.autotrader.co.uk/cl ... age/1/radius/20?logcode=p

Any help is greatly appreciated, I have looked around online but people give different answers and I'm now confused

Well then, anyone moving over to the 360 after this?

I know im strongly considering it! Sony are going to take a while to recover from this, just think about the Knock-on effect it's going to have.

EDIT:
I can imagine the big time players over at Microsoft loving all this...

Quote from dawesdust_12 :No. It's Anon. They've been running a regime against Sony lately. The actual Steam integration is unlikely as all the additional load would be on Valve's side, not Sony.. and Steam seems to run perfectly right now.

This may be a very retarded question.... but what the hell is Anon?

I think they must have had as external attack, or hardware failure. If it's going to take them 2 days to fix, then you know it's really bad

I wonder if it could be to do with the Steam integration though and there just to embarrassed to admit it?

If anyone's interested about the outage, here's a link:

Logitech G25 anyone?

I'm looking for a G25 for £200 or less. They seem to be hard to come buy. Looked on e-bay and they were all really expensive or came with other things and Amazon are clean out.

If anyone has one for sale or would be interested in selling, let me know

EDIT: Mods can delete this post, I have found a seller.

Some Ebay Advice
Snake2

Hello people,

Three moths ago I opened up a PayPal account with my Visa card. I have been using it on and of. It's been fully verified by my bank account and the restrictions have been lifted. I'm 17 and I entered my true data of birth, i didnt lie or anything.

So if PayPal are happy with the fact that I'm 17 and using there service, can I use Ebay even though they also state you have to be 18?

I have done some research into it but everything I find is from two or three years ago.

If anyone has some advice or information that could be of help, that would be great

P.S I'm studying Law, so I know about binding contracts etc.

Thanks

ASUS (ATI) EAH5750 (two of em)

I didn't see the point in that card at all...

You could have 2x ATI 5750's both running in crossfire PCIE x16 and get better performance, but for a fraction of the price + the power consumption of the 480 is MASSIVE compared to two 5750's.

yes,

I have both cards, the Nvidia GTS 250 1GB and the ATI 5750 1GB. I have used both of them in this system

PCIE 2.0 X16 SLOT (ATI 5750 or GTS 250)
Intle Quad Core Q8300 @2.5Ghz
4GB Ram
640GB SATA hard drive
PCIE 2.0 X16 SLOT

I have run many benchmarks, and basicly what it come down to is preference. If your into hard core physics games such as crysis, your best bet is to go with the GTS 250, because of physX. (but in truth I never realy notice the difference between the cards)

However physics are being ported and currently are part of ATI drivers. But nvida are ahead with this feature at the moment.

Crysis GPU Benchmark: @DX10 VeryHighSpec HDR 1680 x 1050 NOAA

Above system with ATI 5750: Avg 20.98 FPS Min: 18.89 FPS Max: 42.71 FPS

Above system with GTS 250: Avg 24.56 FPS Min: 14.34 FPS Max: 39.20 FPS

Some interesting benchmarks there.


The ATI 5750 also has support for DX11 witch is good for the future, Dirt 2 looks amazing!! The ATI 5750 can be overcloked much better than the GTS 250 witch is a bonus for me but may not be for others. It also has slightly higher clocks all round at default.

Both Card Specifications here:
GTS 250 http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gts_250_us.html
ATI 5750 http://www.amd.com/us/products ... -5750-specifications.aspx

Dirt 2 benchmark: @DX11 Ultra settings 1680 x 1050 4XAA

Above system with ATI 5750: Avg 36 FPS


I didn't bother doing the GTS 250 because its not DX11 compatible and It wouldn't have been fair.

Both cards are priced the same, so there's no need to worry there. You cant go wrong and wont be disappointed with ether of the cards just take the plunge and go with one.
I personally would go with the 5750, because of higher overclocking potential and better future support + its economical compared to the GTS 250.

Sorry about the bad grammar and spelling

Well, my car is the little 1995 Mk3 Fiesta :P I love it!!

The Subaru, that's my parents. It's an 2004 STI Type UK, tuned by Prodrive. It's running at 325bhp and 367fp Torque. I posted a long time a go in this thread when they had the P1, but they sold it.

Well, just in case anyone ells is interested I managed to get 5 minuets of gameplay under 1GB. I limited the FPS to 29 and recorded at half size. This seemed to do it. Then I took the video file into after effects and managed to get it to around 500MB, whilst keeping it good quality.

Thanks once again for the suggestions they worked

Help with FRAPS
Snake2
S3 licensed
Heya people

I'm going to start doing some gameplay videos and I have the latest version of FRAPS. However when I record videos of gameplay the file is often huge, around 3 to 4GB for just 5 minuets of video.

Is there anyway to set up FRAPS so it will still record with good quality, but be less than 1GB?

If not, how ells do I get the videos down to a manageable size?
