Is it possible to translate in game Korean messages into English? I'm currently mainly playing on the Korean server and just now I had a terran saying a lot of stuff in Korean before quitting the game without gg(most likely rage XD). I'm very curious as to what he was saying. Is there some simple way to copy+paste the in game message into google translate? Or do you have to use some sort of word recognition software?(that's the only reason why I thought this question is most relevant in the tech support section...) | ||

If you load up the replay with something like SC2Gears you should be able to copy/paste the text into a translation website. | ||

While the processor is very high end (and pretty much overkill for gaming), the video card is a low-budget entry-level model. This machine is not at all suited for gaming, but it'll run the games. | ||

The things customers first look at were configured to look bigger and better, while performance is crippled in other areas to get that money back. This would make me uncomfortable about other parts not mentioned, like the quality of the motherboard and the PSU and HDD, things that actually will matter as the PC might fail earlier than you'd like in a few years. The graphics card is very bad. It's so bad, you might want to not use it and try to get by with the integrated graphics you get with the i7-3770 processor. This disqualifies the PC for gaming. The other thing is the CPU. It's about $100 more than a roughly similar i5. The features that the i7 has do not matter for games, have zero influence on your FPS, so the $100 is wasted. If that money would instead be invested in a graphics card, the PC would be much better for the exact same price. The current graphics card is something in the $50 range, and it could have been in the $150 range with an i5. The 6 GB RAM sound like a strange configuration. You'd usually use a kit of two similar memory sticks to get "dual-channel" mode of the CPU to work, which doubles bandwidth. Because of this, you usually should see 4 GB, 8 GB or 16 GB RAM, not that strange 6 GB. Even if you don't want to build a PC yourself or buy a custom build, do a quick search of the prices of the individual parts on Amazon or something to see if something is terribly off like that $50 graphics card. You can use this list to compare graphics cards roughly: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html The rows in the list mean a step in performance, the GT 620 isn't in the list, but a (perhaps) similar card from older generations is there like the GT 220 or the GT 430. It's a very bad card. In the third column, there's the Intel 4000 that is inside the i7 CPU (for free), and it's not much worse than that GT 220. | ||

Even GaMeR builds like alienware are usually rip-offs, besides the premium they charge, they usually have silly features like absurdly expensive, low value cases with some stupid 15 year old look (maybe you dont mind that but better cases for same cost usually), weird RAM configurations, weird storage configurations, overpriced heatsinks (usually closed loops, so they can say it's water cooled when it isn't technically like a custom water loop). There's some sites, like NCIX that actually will assemble the parts for you. Maybe ibuyerpower would be okay if you really insist on not building the computer... Just google a few vids on how to build a computer. I think you'd be shocked at how incredibly easy it is to do. The hardest part is picking parts, which you can talk to us about. edit: the first part is outdated and not very useful. | ||

Except in more extreme scenarios (heavier overclocks, restrictive cases, and so on), case airflow usually doesn't have a huge impact on temperatures, enough to be the difference in making something overheat. It's usually more the difference between acceptable and better, not a deciding factor. If you have a setup with strong airflow from fans, particularly intakes, then removing the side panels could be allowing air to escape without doing anything, disrupt intended airflow path. In other setups, removing the side panel could easily lower temperatures (but often make things noisier, maybe let more dust in... again depends on layout and configuration).. On a typical setup, usually things only overheat if heatsinks are falling off, otherwise need reseating or repasting, or are choked with dust. | ||
