So, I have been lately following with great interest the discussions about AM2, Conroe, new GPUs etc. I'm sort of person who cannot just go to a shop and buy something, I want to know everything, see the benchmarks, and read opinions.

Well, it seems that my girlfriend got really pissed off, because I spent so much time reading things. Now I'm basically banned from my computer... And this was while I was considering to purchase something!

So, any advice if I should dump my Conroe or my GF? Are there any articles or benchmarks related to this? All the comments appreciated!

OMG.....*bangs forehead on desk*


Tell ya what, though....post a pic of your girlfriend nekkid, so we can see if she's hot or a dog, then we'll tell you which one to dump.

I'll vote option "C" Your girlfriend shoots you in the head...

Reply to AilingBlackLab

Yes, sorry to forget that, I always like to see some screenshots as well, let's see if I can do something for that later. Well, she is quite nicely modded, no problem with that. So at least I should put some cold cathodes to accompany my Conroe to get even with that (if that path is chosen)?

Reply to CtrlAltDel

Your cathodes are of no concern to us. Only pics of GF, especially if the modding was of the silicone variety. Thank you.

Reply to Auburn9698

Your GF sounds kinda like a twit to me, wtf gets jealous over a computer. Common. There are ways to intercept.

Reply to CHEEZball

heheh, there are also ways to undermine....

:lol:

Reply to mrface

If a you can ignore a girl on her knees on front of you while you're on the computer. You are gay.

;)

Reply to CHEEZball

Dump her. Think of it. She's nicely modded with 40lbs extra blubber. Piercings and tattoos no one wants to see. She smells like fish, you spend your money on her and you get nothing out of it. Plus, she's underage and you can go to jail for what you've been doing to her. Honestly, it's time to move out of your parent's basement. Maybe invest in some sunscreen because you'll be needing a lot of that. Lay off the Code Red, visit a dentist, maybe take a shower every day. Plus, after dumping her, you'll have more time to read up on your precious Conroe that will also be blowing hot air, won't put you in jail, and will never get fat.

Though, I bet if you upgraded to a better mouse, your girlfriend would be comfortable playing on the computer. Who knows, might even get a better grip with the girlfriend eh?

We don't want someone like you reproducing in the same gene pool. your kid will come out screwed up far worse than you. You're dirtying the pool.

If you can actually get a girl to do that, then you are not PF.

Reply to Auburn9698

woah woah woah... before all of you jump to the "dump her" recommendation, do you think we should see what this girl looks like? I mean... for all we know she could be drop dead gorgeous.

sir, please post a picture of her in this thread. preferably nude. only then can i make an informed decision.

thanks,

Reply to RichPLS

I vote that mpjesse should personally test said female and provide the forum with a detailed report including lurid descriptions and photographs of fellatio, rimming and acts of flagellation.

Discuss.

Jesse, Jesse.. Let's put yourself in la-la land for a minute. Imagine, if you will:

Current state.. but instead, you have a gorgeous bombshell who calls you her boyfriend. If I had a picture easily accessible, I would post a picture of a beauty for you. But I don't, so imagine.

Do you really think he would be concerned over Conroe? She wants attention. Give her the damn attention and forget the latest computer stuff. Obviously he wants to sit around playing computer games over maintaining a relationship with her.

He's either gay or she's nasty.

I vote Dump Her.

Reply to Riser

The true sign of female devotion is when she licks your fresh stinking mess off your keyboard.

Reply to WingDing

All of us? Well, prozac and I were on the ball early.

I say if she's hot, he should dump her. And send her to me.

Reply to Auburn9698

It's a attention thing. That's it. She's jealous that he's not devoting all his attention onto her. He's researching a big purchase. That's it. ooh... a couple hours of his time a day. Big Deal.

If this was, lets say, School. And she got all pissy that he was studying for his finals more than cuddling with her... what would you suggest then?

Eventually the damn thing is going to get released and he can devote more time to her. And like I said previously... there are ways of getting a mans attention without pulling a temper tantrum.

Reply to CHEEZball

Let's look at his situation. He's considering dumping her because he's researching a purchase. Who in their right mind would consider that unless there are pre-existing problems of which dumping her would come to his mind?
I can research any hardware and know within 30 minutes if it's something I would want. How much time does one need to invest?

Seriously, it'll probably be worth purchasing 3-6 months after it comes out at 50% the price and hype.

But if he's considering giving up his girlfriend over the conroe, obviously things can't be that great in the relationship. I don't think she sounds needy. I think he sounds nerdy. :P If she's hot and the relationship is good, it wouldn't even be a question on what to do.

If you're always looking a day ahead, you're going to let today pass you by.

I'm confident she's unattractive. I wouldn't want to be known as the guy among my friends who dumped the hot needy chick over researching a piece of hardware for my computer. 8O

Reply to Riser

well obviously there's underlining problems here that weren't surfaced.

but my point still holds true!

whore.

Reply to CHEEZball

She's ugly. I can sense it in his typing.

He also rubs peanut butter on his genitals and between his toes. He has a dog named Oral.

Riser, imagine for a moment, you are actually attractive and can find and choose women at will. Bollocks, nobody possesses that kind of an imagination, you stick to being a lap dog. :wink:

EAT YOUR OWN FACE!!!

Reply to pickxx

All I'm trying to say is that beggers can't be choosers. He should take what he can get.

Now, had he said, "I'm checking out this blonde and the burnette wants my attention.. should I dump her and go for the blonde?"

This sir, is an appropriate question and concern.

"She was on her knees in front of me.. my leg was shaking with excitement as I looked at Conroe."

That's just wrong.

Reply to mrface

oooo... talk more about the "other things" a woman can do to get a man's attention.

*eyes get really wide*

Reply to mpjesse

**imagines other orifices getting wide** :wink:

Reply to RichPLS

Fellas, fellas. I can't believe you missed the obvious answer to this dilemma. Get her to buy the hardware and then dump the ungrateful bitch.

Reply to _WW_

Oh yea, I forgot to mention something. For starting a thread involving your girlfiend you lose 67,089 points and must wear the same pair of unwashed underwear, (tighty-whiteys) for a month.

Reply to _WW_

Taking points from him is fair enough, having him pander to your special interests is just wrong.

Reply to Tom_Smart

I didn't see where he stated that said Undies must be presented in a Gilded box at the end of said month...But one can see the implication 8)

Reply to AilingBlackLab

Special Interests are what make the world go round...and there is nothing wrong with throwing in a little pandering now and then.

Do you think wingy would like a gilded box? These filthy, rotting briefs would make a nice welcome back gift...

Eh, damn... Are they directly deducted from my 3dmark06 score? I guess there is a small chance that I don't have that many points. Unless... ...I choose Conroe (?).

Not exactly... The tooth fairy keeps track of life points (Due to downsizing she's forced to take on another job & bitches about it constantly)

I see you only had 68,000 remaining so it won't be long before you get a visit from the Reaper ( Don't be mad if he's late as downsizing has affected him too & he's currently occupied blinding those who masturbate to Maggie Thatcher porn)...

I see. I hope they would outsource the job to some distant country, where they would fail to keep track of the points like they fail everything else.

As long as the letter 'e' stays there and won't get downsized, no probs. I'll try to find a health pack as soon as possible, if that would help. And now we are at it, maybe quad-damage as well.
