I'm playing on a netbook right now, and want to buy a real pc that handles Quakelive well for a small buck. I'm not into computers, meaning I prefer not to play around with the installation myself.

Looking on ebay, I find the following pre-built computer for 330€, with the prices from hardwareversand.de for apporimately the same parts adding up to about 260-290€:

AMD Phenom II X4 840 Box AM3 87,60€
4GB-Kit GEIL Value Plus PC3-10600 DDR3-1333 CL9 27,50 x 2 = 55
Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB SATA II 16MB 36€
Gigabyte Radeon HD 6570 OC, 1024MB GDDR3, PCI-Express 58
ASRock N68-S3 UCC, Sockel AM3, mATX 35
ATX miditower + power supp 40€
amd cu cooler + dvd-rw

What do you think about those parts for Quakelive/ for a computer to play some games on in general? Appreciate your input.

Agent has been playing on a high level online for quite some time, but I can not recall him performing at LAN.

Why would you not compete if you have the level to beat Cypher and Cooller successively as just witnessed?

Seeing the match against Cooller on stream, I did get the impression that Agent is using a wallhack from time to time.

I might be wrong, so I am now interested in the opinions of the community. Do you see him a suspicious player, or are you convinced that he is legit and simply has the skilllevel to beat Cooller and Cypher online?

I have setup quake3 on a new Toshiba satellite A200-17q laptop, and as expected it does work well, but aiming is just super difficult, and I'm outclassed in every fight due to me not being able to hit well at all.

The laptop runs vista, but frames are only seldom dropping below 125, the sensitivity feels ok as well, it's just a question of not being able to hit the opponent in fights.

I'm used to playing on a crt monitor with 100 hz while the Toshiba laptop does 60 hz. I don't know what the screen capabilities of Tosihbas laptops are, but the reason for the bad hitting is probably to be found there.

Would you say that aiming badly comes with the bad laptop screen? Maybe someone has experience with quake on Vista and Toshiba laptop screens and is able to help me?

Thanks.
