You should also make available your audio saying "Welcome to the blame game; the show that allows you to decide who got it wrong"

Amazing sir. Great work

Nice, I love the effect

Hello,

I was wondering basically what is the normal temperature components run at in a computer, but also, basically my main concern was why comp computer started running at the temperature it is.

You see, not too long ago, my CPU and GPU used to run in the 40°C range, when not doing much, but now it seems to run most of the time in the 50°C-s (right now: 52&54).

Here's specs:
Motherboard: Asus K8V-X
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3000+ @ 2.0GHz
Memory: 1536Mb PC3200 DDR SDRAM (512Mb stick + 1Gb stick)
Hard Drives: Seagate 7200rpm 80GB + Maxtor 7200rpm 200GB
Video Card: NVIDIA XFX GeForce 7600GS 256Mb AGP8X
Sound Card: Creative Labs SBLive! 24-bit (PCI)
Operating System: Windows XP Home Edition
Optical Drives: LG DVD-ROM + Lite-On Lightscribe DVD-RW
1 Floppy Drive
Power Supply: 430W (if not mistaken)
There's 2 (80mm fans I believe) in there.

At some point I thought... Well... Maybe it's the PSU not high enough, that impacts on heat sometimes... But... A calculator gave me that I needed in the 300s, so, I don't think it's that.

Quote from vf1-xj220 :

Mainly because either the game doesn't properly compress the skin into dds, or it downgrades it to 1024x1024 (if you place the jpg looks pretty crappy sometimes)... so you won't be enjoying the nice benefits of having 2048x2048 textures.

If you place the 2048x2048 textures in the skins/ folder, and use uncompressed (not compressed) skins in game, they'll show as 2048x2048 original like in the past.

Go Canada. I'm also a LOTA racer .

I'm joining the fun now, hehe. Last time I did this was the F1 Driver pictures, that I kept my av same since then. Anyways, might as well do this

It's actually amazing to see how this was one of the most demanded helmets. lol.

Anyways, here's a summer gift folks



Helmet of Kimi Raikkonen 2007 edition.

By the way, the skin is already on LFS World, so you don't need to upload it.

This skin is free for public use, but please don't edit it and stuff.


Enjoy

Is it me, or is there still 3 sets of great lakes?

Quote from MAGGOT :

CART was around until a couple years ago. CART became Champ Car like 3 years ago I thought? I thought it before the split it was Indycar somethin or other, after the split there was IRL and CART? I know what IRL stands for, but I forget what the IRL is called now. (BTW, Indy is spelled with a 'Y.' "Indie" is short for Independant )

[EDIT] IRL is now ICS; IndyCar Series, right? My memory is coming back as I sober up..

Indycar split into IRL and CART. CART became ChampCar (World Series) not too long ago, a few years, and still has this name. The IRL = Indy Racing League, holding 2 sub leagues, the IndyCar Series (Indy Racing League IndyCar Series) and the IndyPro Series (who drives on more road courses and a few less ovals than IndyCar does).

Nice one.

Nice vids, good job. The new DSR is organizing good stuff as well.

I noticed it, but I just thought it was pretty awesome. Never mentioned it though Great though, more skin slots is always fun

There's no more skins_x :P, Unless it's .dds

Great work mate, awesome result!


Edit: No Bridgestone logos?

Hah, nice vid, very amusing .

Good job mate.

Hi,

Well, I host a podcast called Race Tech Radio with Justin Hryciw (Anorexicpillow) that discusses the latest news in racing and technology. However, for the next few weeks, Justin will not be available to record the show with me, therefore I am looking for a replacement host. This host will make the show with me for the period of time Justin will be away, and may continue afterwards, if they wish, if we decide to have a 3rd host (which could be fun).

So if you have decent knowledge in racing- and technology-related stuff, hold a decent amount of professionalism for fun podcasting, wishes to have fun, and therefore fill in for this position, then don't hesitate to contact me.

Basic requirements:
- Speak english
- Have Skype
- Shows are released on Wednesdays, recording on Tuesday or Wed. night 6-7-ish-ET.

Well, I had a question, I saw this deal here and was wondering on thoughts about price-goodness ratio. I know my basics in hardware, but associating it with prices can sometimes come and mix me up.

I'm not thinking of buying it anyways, but I just want to get a feel of how it situates in the money market.


PS: This is $549.97 CAD. Price equivalence: $511.74 USD, £256.84, €382.22

Hah, me again. I thought of giving another gift...


...hm...


...And well, I am.

Thanks folks. I'm glad everyone likes it. I like it a lot myself.

@ James: Well, it's more red than orange. It's really bright fluorescent red. I tried to make it kinda vivid, but heh, lol.

Well well well... Here I am again . I'm much proud of this one.

Helmet of Robert Kubica 2007 edition.

Quote from QBi :

But You can do Robert Kubica's 2007 helmet I'd love to see it done by some good helmet skinner ) I found picture of helmet created for GP4, I think it's well detailed and can be used as a refference pic. But it may be too small

I actually had in mind to do this helmet, possibly. So I might give it a try eventually (if Darkone doesn't do it ). Small pics, but anyways. If you do find higher res ones, don't hesitate to send away.
