911, I learned ALOT just by reading the bottom of the page at NEWEGG. For each piece of hardware they have a blue colored link on the bottom of the page tht explains everything you need to know to pick out what you need. They explain it in layman's terms so it's not computer mumbo-jumbo. I built my first pc 2 months ago just by reading that stuff in those links. You might have to narrow down the search in order for the link to appear, like if the choice on the left margin is "video card accessories, and video cards below it, click on "video cards" and the link on the bottom should be there to explain ALL the types and whats old and new.....it was amazingly clear info, and helped me alot. BTW I have a thermaltake 750 toughpower, and it had tons of connections and a big fat fan....it works GREAT.

I've been a Newegger for a long time and one sure can get an education with all the specs, reviews and general info they have on the site. They are also tops when it comes to RMAs. Out of several hundred pieces that I've got from them only two needed to be returned and it was very prompt. Also no questions asked. Lately I've placed and received four orders from directron.com/index.html . Like Vista Ultimate oem was $10 cheaper there at $179. Which I sure do like, it was a breeze to install and has been rock steady. Haven't put JO on it yet but have most my other programs running there now. Anyhow about this Directron place, the website isn't as slick as say Tiger Direct or Newegg, short on description and pictures, no reviews. But some interesting prices. Kinda quirky nav but that could just be me from using Newegg so long. Says they've been operating for ten years. If you place order, click 'free stuff' and add your free Intel ink pen or baseball cap, T-shirt or motherboard or whatever your order qualifies for...all orders can get something but you do have to add it to cart. Some items with free shipping plus the fact that they are located in Dallas/Ft. Worth area, that means I get all my orders in two days instead of three from Newegg. Check out how on some motherboard pages you'll see a bunch of drop downs. It shows you all the compatible parts, video, sound, cpu, memory etc. Basically you can build a system from that one page and place it in cart for checkout. Add testing for $10, double packing $3 and some other options. Let me know what you think if you check it out. spoon

Yeah i don't know whats up with Novalogic Jo was released in 04 an Delta Force1 an 2, Delta Force Land Warrior, BHD, BHD Team Sabre an JO, Delta Force Extreme were all published alot closer together. Don't know what there waitin on for the next release they gotta know theres a huge fan base out there otherwise the Nova servers would've died off 2 yrs ago when BF2 came out.

yeah Still JO sounds like a better game than BF2, they'll have to do a truely nice piece of Job for their next release to get some competition to ArmA and other mass tactical shooters which are comming up, otherwise nova=dead.
