100!

Three days ago I bought Serious Sam HD then I realized that I now have 100 games in my steam collection
Used to buy alot of games from the steam store, but now I barely buy games from steam because of their intolerable prices.

Well, its about time to do the 2 year upgrade rutine.
Upgraded everything except my graphics card which is an ATI HD 4870 with 1GB of DDR5 memory. Must admit it was a really good buy when you look at price vs performance ration compared to the other cards on the market (at the time of purchase).

When it comes to buying computers I always build the components with best performance vs price ratio.

Now here is a list of all the components.

CPU : Intel Quad Core i5 750, OC to 4ghz. (with Zalman CPU Cooler 9900 cpu cooler).
M/B : MSI GD65 (P55 chipset)
RAM : 4GB, OCZ DDR3 PC3-10666
HD : For OS I use a 74GB WD Raptor Disc (10k rpm), for storage I use two 500Gb Samsung 7200rpm discs in RAID 0. Plus a 1TB external HD for backup purposes (seagate).
Chassi : Cooler Master HAF 922

Best of all, this only set me back 4436 NOK (norwegian Kroners).
Here is an conversion for you foreigners : 4436 = 779 USD, 525 EURO, 467 GBP

Finally I am download my most anticipated game of the year!
I love xfire and have been using it for many many years now and when I noticed that the new xfire online store sells dragon age origins I had to try it out.
Found out that the xfire store is really metaboli, which I have used to some extent in the past and I was and still am really satisfied with the speed and service. They promised me my download link and key 00:01 3 november, but I even got it 1 minute before time (could just be that our clock differentiates with 1minute).

One thing Im not that satisfied with right now is that it seems metaboli limits me to 1MB/sec download. But im not in a hurry since I have been waiting for this game for 2+ years, so I guess I can wait an hour or so more
