Last night watch Warrior in the cinema, was a epic film. Just re-watched the trailer and it made me want to see it again. Even if your not into mixed martial art (UFC), which i am not, the story is so gripping and the acting is excellent its one you should not miss. 10/10

I am little worried as i bought a pair of 6950 with Dirt 3 codes included a couple of weeks ago, but i have been out of the country for work since they arrived, so they have been sat in at home unopened, and the codes have not been redeemed. Will they still be safe to use?

Great news about the unlock. Mine have been received at my office, but i'm not going to be able to pick them up for a week due to a stupid holiday :(

Yay they have shipped, but boo i have not power supply until my RMA one is returned, and i am out of the country for until next Wednesday, so the cards are going to sit in my company goods in for a week. Fowler can you let me know how you get on, and it they are unlock-able?

Good news the retailer is talking it back and covering the shipping. Now the up to 10 day wait for it to be returned. And to make it worse my 2xSaphire Toxic 6950 have shipped today from OCUK, and i have nothing to power them with :(

Set the RMA in process with corsair and its been accepted, but I need to ship it to the Netherlands, and the post office want to charge over £30 for the privileged. Found a couple of cheaper couriers, but am going to try and send it back the local retailer first.

I was thinking about it, but i think i would rather have the saving for now. Also i used the 5% discount code I received on the order. Does any one know if i canceled the order would I be able to use the code again?

Great thanks for the reassurance, i really hope you are right :)

Yeah i have done that, as I ran through a number of tests described on the Corsair support website, which included a test to isolate the power supply and put a jumper across two of the terminals to get it to power up on its own and got no response, the power supply was just dead.

This morning I woke up the RCD for all my plug sockets had tripped. I reset the RCD and thought nothing of it, until a couple of hours later when i tried the power up my new PC which I had just finished building the previous night. Disappointingly it would not power up, not even a click. I...

I'm in the same position as Fowler with 2 x Toxic on pre-order. I managed to get the order in early enough to get the lower price, but i missed out on the Deus Ex offer :(. But i dont think i will swap, even to save the £40, as the odd of getting a card that unlocks seams to be a lot higher...

Looks like even though i thought i had done well getting my order in before the price went up (24 Aug, 11, 5:05 pm), looks like i lost out on the Deus Ex :(

I also, took the plunge and ordered 2 x Toxics for crossfire. Fingers crossed I can get the shaders to unlock. Luckily i placed the order before the price increase, and has a 5% discount code, so hopefully both will be honored. Sorry to hear you got caught out.

Forgot this had been released, been looking forward to it for months, queuing it up in spotify now :)

I'm so confused, i cant decide between the MSI ATI Radeon HD 6950 OC Twin FrozR III or sapphire 6950 toxic, was going to let price be the deciding factor, but the offers on both are excellent (Also with my 5% discount code). Was planning on Crossfire, so do i take the £40 cable that the Toxic's...

I would change the locks to make sure he cant get back in. By the sounds of it your daughter is lucky to be rid of the freeloader.

My wife does it as well. I have come to find quite soothing as she is searching for them, but that so stops when the squeezing, bleeding and the pain starts.

That USB port to headphone jack wont work on an Xbox. Do you have a new or old style Xbox? If its the old one, I bought a Xbox Optical Out cable (Google it as not sure what links i can put here), which also has a analog stereo out, which you can connect to external speakers.

A few years ago the did a test on the Gadget Show (Not the most scientific test i know), but they could see no difference, and they tested a range of cables, on a range of inputs/outputs.

Regularly i listen to: Fighting Talk The Football Ramble Mark Kermodes Film Reviews From time to time i listen to: Scott Mills Daily Major Nelson Radio Chris Moyles Will keep an eye on this thread to see if I can pick up any more ideas.
