what a pig

it appears there's a possibilty that there may be some form of corruption, what with that witness being corrected by the officer.

You could also get one of these http://www.maplin.co...ling-mat-221693

I've used a conductive cooling mat before and I can say that they do work.

But I must say, the fact I can run most, if not all PS2 games full speed (like THPS3 and Grandia 3, both of which never ran past 50fps in most cases on my older PC without using speed hacks)

why wouldn't you just play the PC version of THPS3?

also fan management software is good

not sure which power supply i need. any suggestions on which psu to get?
or what i can change on this setup?
got a ~1000 euro budget

Everything seems nice and in order, it would be recommended to get yourself a 650w power supply as it provides ample power for your components with added headroom (for SLI, etc.), if you can get yourself a modular psu in your budget that would be great as well since there are less hassles with unwanted/unneeded cables.

Also I don't recommend factory overclocked gpu as the benefit from them is almost invisible to the user and isn't worth the premium, especially the one you chose as the oc is very slim. If you want an oc card, just buy one with stock clock an oc it yourself, that's where the fun is, and appreciate the full value of the extra 3 to 6% fps on peaks you'll gain.

Regarding the Twin Frozr II he's selected the main feature of the card isn't so much the factory OC but it's heatsink cooler, Twin Frozr II's are fantastic cards with low temperatures and a great choice if you're going for SLI in the future where to provide extra cooling in a smaller space.
