Why do people buy stuff before they actually need it?

Subconsciously believeing that having the system will make the game release faster? I remember around 2003-2004 people were making killer rigs to play the first Stalker game, and then had to wait another 2-3 years for it to come out.

Either way, building a "killer rig" in the last year will probably mean you'll be playing COD with a lot of the bells a whistles enabled and a decent framerate, just not as fast or as cheaply as people who waited.

Maybe it's a stupid question but since I have a 3-core cpu I'd like to know if that would leave me better off than a dual core? I know there's a lot more to it than just having a lot of cores, L1/2/3 cache and clock frequency etc.

Absolutely! I just bought my new rig in December and what happens? Oleg rushes to announce the release of the game just 4 weeks later.

You guys owe me a beer for my farsighted investment and Market influence!!

Now if it's ok I'll carry on reading the trest of the umpteen pages of this thread.

EDIT: Well I got through to page 21.

128kps upstream?
Don't flame me guys but does anyone really have an upstream that low? Is that why it's only 128 players?

I have only an upstream that low. But for lots of players the downstream has to be high not the upstream.
