To our new insect overlords - bravo, congratulations, and please don't eat my brains!

The obvious important question, though, is where you stand on the matter of cake?

Good luck with the new role, and don't let it make your heads hurt too much

Congrats all

Great to see there's still good progress being made

Seem to have finally fixed it... went into NVIDEA display software, made a custom profile for WoW, turned ambient occulsion off, and now the dx11 change works and I'm getting decent FPS. Very, very bizarre - but apparently the ambient occlusion thing was stopping Dx11 working, so it always defaulted...

Further update -- the fix to make WoW use dx11 seems to be the cause, at least, so I'd guess... So I keep trying to add SET gxapi "d3d11" to my config.wtf file. I add it, save the file, then run WoW -- at which point the config.wtf file resets to its original version, as though WoW is rese...

An update: Finally got around to removing the second gfx card but that gave no change at all to the FPS of WoW. Although it did kill the sound on my box. Which was weird, but fixed itself when I put the second card back in (I have no idea, really). The dead RAM is currently off at RMA with a nice co...

Thanks for the detailed reply :) Sorry I've been slow getting back -- was a national holiday yesterday, so I got dragged off to do celebraty stuff... fun fun! It's a box I got built for me from this small company : http://ibuypower.com.au - pricy, but that's the cost of living over here. At least, h...

For some reason, it keeps eating the DX11 thing, so that doesn't appear in the .wft, even though I've repeatedly added it. When I add this setting WoW moves it to somewhere else in the config.wtf file. I thought I'd lost it to begin with. Not sure if you've already done this but search through the ...

Yeah, you need to work out whether this is a WoW thing or a computer thing. Run 3DMark to see what score you get, as that'll help determine if there's something fundamentally wrong with 3D processing. My first thought would be drivers, especially since you're running an SLI setup. Make sure you hav...

Have you tried other games?Maybe run 3dmark and compare your score to simular systems! That system should handle wow fine. Right -- I ran 3DMark11 on advanced, with settings set to extreme (i.e. 1920x1080 res etc.). The result details were Graphics Score 993 Phys. Score 7672 Combined 1266 Overall s...

Hey folks, Figured someone here might be able to help me on this one -- and if you don't ask, you don't get. After the computer-death that happened to Kris' box on the way out here, she's bought my old one off me, and I've treated myself to a new beast... In theory, it should be much better than my ...

Reckon the 650W PSU will be enough? Yeah, it's a decent model/brand so it should be okay. Unless you want to sli/crossfire in the future? Doubt her box will ever be changed, once built, to be honest... I'm just wishing mine had died, so I could build myself a fun new box... but mine is only 18 mont...

Seems really nice! 3.2Ghz 8Mb 4 Cores/4 Threads w/ Corsair H50 Liquid Cooled Kit => Ripoff! And maybe get an SSD? it's amazing! Nvidia fanboy?Might be worth getting the new 6870 ATI HD6870 1Gb DX11 550w PSU Required => [+]$106.00, that's $60 more expensive then the gtx 460 but quite a bit faster as...

Hey folks, Kris and I and now safely settled in our flat in Aus, and have finally got our stuff. One minor disaster, though -- Kris' computer didn't survive the trip! So, we're back again at the "Build me a box" stage... What she needs, really, is something that will comfortably run WoW, w...

That sounds very broken... What difficulty are you on? If it's below prince then it's probably not worth playing. The AI is a lot easier than in previous games. I'm doing the same as Ropey -- playing at lowish difficulty to get used to the new things in the game... think I'm on the third or fourth ...
