  1. Is it really worth it? by EvilCabbage · · Score: 5, Funny

    Note : Due to something respected Doctors and Scientists are calling "The Slashdot Effect" I have not read the article.

    Honestly. Do I get my membership to "Club Nerd" revoked because I'm not interested in water cooling my PC, airbrushing the case, or fitting ass-loads of neons?

    When I do game (which is a little rare now-a-days) I would rather just have decent hardware, and not have to worry about over-clocking, heat sinking, over-binging on jolt, and the associated woman repelling habits.

    Is there something wrong with me?...

    Delete your pagefile. Have every possible service running.
    Now, run your game while doing a continuous virus scan.
    I can guarantee that your "fast" system will run much slower then an optimized "slower" system
    On the plus side, it is a great way to increase your frustration level.

    Now we need a system optimization guide for pr0n. Get the most out of it!

    They're called "Girlfriends".

    Ah, sorry, forgot where I was for a second there...

    I think the line is drawn at the twelve button mark. If you have more than 12 buttons on your mouse and joystick combined, it's a gaming console.

  5. Optimizing? by CSG_SurferDude · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yes, having a GF is a wonderful way of optimizing Pr0N, but it's a LOT like optimizing your system.

    In fact, one of the best ways to optimize your system(GF) is to marry her. Performance increases dramatically and the cost drops significantly.

    The problem though is that once you have a wife, the negative effects of optimization start happening, like kids.

    Then they scream that their saggy (you know whats) are all your fault, she's tired all the time, you get interrupted by crying/fighting children, etc.

    The solution then is to get a new GF (And dump the old). This costs money.

    Repeat this cycle enough times and soon you'll be back where you started from :-(
