PC Gamer remarked that “Crysis has pushed PC gaming to a new plateau, marrying the most advanced graphics engine ever created with phenomenal gameplay. From the cinematic opening to credits to its cliffhanger ending, Crysis is mesmerizing.”

I’m a FPS or First-Person-Shooter fans myself. I played with Half-Life, Quake II & III, Red Fraction, C&C: Renegade, Counter-Strike, Condition Zero and many other titles back in my school days. Ahh… those sweet times when we got nothing much to worry beside homework and exam ~ LoL :-D . I stopped my last FPS during the time of Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 legacy where my rig was almost impossible to host a smooth gameplay. I gave up both game after a few hours with it when I couldn’t bear the lagness anymore.

Late in year 2007, my AMD64 rig giving me numerous problems from time to time. It was also critical when I need to finish up my assignment but ended up the rig serving me some downtime and I need to spend time fixing it up. Fedup with it, I made my move to upgrade the whole damn thing! *excuses :-P *

Special thanks to a friend of mine, a dota-kaki to be exact, he helped me to source a low price processor where I made the Intel’s Core 2 Quad Processor possible in my new rig specification :-) . With a little of shopping again done at LowYat.Net, my new specification as follows:

  • Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz LGA775 (overclocked to 3.2GHz :-P )
  • Xigmatek HDT-S1283 Air Cooler
  • DFI LanParty DK P35-T2RS
  • OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 Titanium 4GB Edition Dual Channel (4-4-4-12 @ 2.0V)
  • 500GB Seagate 7200.11 SATA2 32MB HDD
  • LG H10A DVDRW-Rom
  • HIS HD 3870 IceQ 3 Turbo HDMI Dual DL-DVI & TV 512MB GDDR4 PCIe
  • Dell E1905FP 19″ LCD
  • Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
  • Edifier R501 MKII 5.1
  • Fortron Bluestorm 500W
  • Thermaltake Tsunami Dream
  • Dell’s 104-Keys Black USB Multimedia Keyboard & Logitech MX-518 on Xtrac Ripper

This new rig provide enough “juice” for me to finish the game Crysis on high customized setting. Finally I be able to play same latest PC games, but I keep my finger-crossed on how long I be able to hold on it till a new game which set another blow to shame on current PC hardware capabilities :-) .

I bought a new set of computer table as well. The IKEA’s Jerker series which I admired since long ago already stopped in production and replaced by Fredrick series :-( . Not to say that the Fredick series is bad, but it just does not suits my liking. In the end I grabbed the Galant series instead :-) . It just nice that I able to add 2 cable trunks below the table for some neat cable management :-D . Besides that, I customized it by cutting a 8mm tempered glass to lay on the surface of the table since many people said that it can get scratches easily or leaving marks when something wet rest on it for some time. Now I be able to use it without worrying much about putting anything on the table :-) .

Finally this is the Vearnstation V3.0 where I spent most of my time on it while I’m at home for working, surfing, entertainment and relaxing :-) .
