Re: PC Gamers Lounge by blueButtocks: 8:21pm On Dec 05, 2013 |
weazley: Bia can somone tel me y cal of duty5 shows insert disc wen I launch d game after installation,You probably installed a pirated version. You should check online for a crack for it. Google call of duty 5 crack. It will be a relatively small file. Download and copy to your installation folder. That should get it working. weazley:Re-install directx and update your video card drivers. |

dino_xiv: Nice - Also wanted to start such a thread... seems there aren't as many Core pc gamers in naija... When I saw the first pix, I was mad at you for not getting a PC with a graphics card as a PC gamer. But I relaxed when I saw the 2Gb Nvidia graphics card in the second pix. The 1920 x 1080 display makes it more mouthwatering. NIce one Bro. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by blueButtocks: 7:08am On Dec 07, 2013 |
Nice specs bro. My last gaming laptop was about 2 years back. I built my gaming desktop about 6 months back, and I really enjoy the screen estate it affords me. Playing games like COD and Far Cry 3 on a 24 inch display is just amazing. Almost done with Far Cry 3. Next on my list is Battlefield 4. What genres do you enjoy? I prefer FPS and MOABs. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by dinoxiv(m): 7:35pm On Dec 07, 2013 |
Yea, it packs 2x GT750M Cards working together in SLI Mode -Sacrificing the Optical Drive. I agree Desktops are ideal for gaming as they could always be re-configured to keep up as the years go by (not to mention that they r also more stable & efficient). Well, too bad for me... I'm always on the move. I'm more into games in third person view -Hitman Abs., the Splinter Cell Series, Max Payne, LA Noire ...etc -began trying out FPS with C.O.D, & now I'm hooked...played BF 2, & looking forward to playing BF 4. Also spend loads of time modding soccer games -Fifa/Pes & tweaking PC's |

I Miss the bigger screen most times, but when I really feel like it -I use HDMI out to tv. |

dino_xiv: I Miss the bigger screen most times, but when I really feel like it -I use HDMI out to tv. I also have a y510p. Is hdmi plug and play? Have you encountered any games that couldn't run on it ? |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by dinoxiv(m): 1:30pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
lawrence7: Yea It is, & you don't have to worry about compatibility with games, as its just like using a monitor.. & also HDMI auto-detects the best resolution to transmit to the screen -unlike VGA & RCA cables... |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by lawrence7: 11:15pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
dino_xiv: Thanks man. I'll give it a try. |

About to build a PC gaming rig I sold my ps3 and opted for PC gaming cause 1. PC gaming graphics with a beastly graphics card does outshine even the ps4 by miles away 2. Heard ps4 doesn't support DLNA , so WTF ? I just don't have a gaming thirst !!! I want media satisfaction too 3. Price of console games. During my ps3 era, I did buy the games ranging from 8-12k ....let's say in a year,buying up to 10 CDs is nothing less than 100k !!!! Games which I could easily have downloaded for free on PC. I don't know if the ps4 will be hacked for free games but with PC I can definitely get all cracked games for free. Already ordered the PC parts from amazon and below are the specs Intel i5 4670k 8gb ddr3 ram MSI gtx 780 lighting 3gb DDR5 ASUS maximum gene mother board 1 TB hdd 120 ssd With these specs I'll be taking on next gen game titles with ultra graphic settings @1080p 60+ FPS Already downloaded battlefield 4 and call of duty ghosts on my laptop so now I wait |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by weazley(m): 12:05pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
Pls help oh, I don com again Am a jjc in pc gamin, buh not a newbie in gamin, oga bluttocks oya com and help me, where can I download directx9 or 10, d ones I downloaded at filecrop in rar format, had only one folder after extraction with a few files , there was no instalation file for d directx9, only .cab files. I just downloaded inversion, and the game req directx9 |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by blueButtocks: 2:03pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
sniperwolf:Same mistake a friend made. Installed Windows 8 on his, and mine game better and faster than his. I'd rather install Windows Xp service pack 3 than that Windows 8. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by dinoxiv(m): 2:04pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
weazley: Pls help oh, Sort d contents of the folder containing the .cab files by type... & scroll thru -u shud see a "DXSETUP.EXE" file. Run it. Else Search & download it directly from microsoft download center www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/ Their links support resume.. Better still, if you've got any copy of PES or FIFA just search in the folders "/_installer/ for FIFA.. They come with directx in a separate folder.. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by blueButtocks: 2:05pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
chidi2pus: About to build a PC gaming rig Desktop of the year. God damn. Must have cost you upwards of a 1200 dollars. I'll upgrade mine next year, my system runs Battlefield 4 comfortably on Ultra though. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by blueButtocks: 2:07pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
Does anyone play old games on their PC using roms? Just finished Super Mario Bros 3 on SNES.. hehehehe. So amazing. |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by chidi2pus(m): 7:47pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
blueButtocks: well my account was put on hold today on amazon as regards credit card issues so i'll be buying the parts from microcenter which gives bundles and disounts. If amazon doesn't verify my account in the next 24 hours i will be forced to purchase parts from microcenter which is $250 cheaper. Entire pc build from amazon is $1130 though but it should satisfy my thirst for the next few years. between can i get a good desktop case in nigeria? |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by hancock(m): 9:10pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
chidi2pus: Amazon and their wahala. i had the same issue with the credit card thingy when i was shopping for PC accessories for my rig,didn't find it funny you can check my earlier post on it here https://www.nairaland.com/1475841/building-home-theater-pc-htpc 1 Like |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by chidi2pus(m): 9:51pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
hancock: seen your thread before and i'll say, it was one of the main motivations that factored my move from console to the pc gaming sphere. I don't live in lagos so using a third party buyer who resides in lagos is gonna increase by budget by about 16%. main reason i'm giving amazon a 24 hour duration to fix my account is GTB has already forwarded my billing statement to amazon via FAX.it could be resolved within the next 24 hours.ordering the parts from another website could lead to double orders will be patient for one more day. btw,i look forward to posting pics of the rig when it's built |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by hancock(m): 11:12pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
chidi2pus:ok happy buying then. if assembled your rig will end up smacking mine hands down besides i wish you stay in lagos i could make use of your battlefield 4 and call of duty ghost. i have limited bandwidth on my swift network to pull those heavy files |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by hancock(m): 11:15pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
blueButtocks: ehh. . i currently run windows 8 pro on my rig and i don't have any problems with installing or playing games on it so far |
Re: PC Gamers Lounge by weazley(m): 9:48am On Dec 11, 2013 |
