My PC meets the system req's, I just wonder how well it will run. I'm running an Athlon 64 3200 processor, GeForce 8800 GTS, 2 gigs ram. Anyway, hopefully I can get a hold of a key at some point. Glad you are enjoying it.

Need a decent gaming headset w/ mic

For around 30 dollars or less (up to 40-45ish if the value is worth the cost). I just need the ability to talk to in-game people with a mic, and I'd also like the headset to play music decently with a good bass response.

Any ideas? The main ones I've been looking into are Plantronics .Audio sets ...

I tried it out, and it did seem to make the 720p video run pretty smoothly, although the 1080p is still unwatchable XD Are there any settings I have to configure with the Media Player to take full effect of "HD decoding" ?

Thanks very much.
