Ey up you good looking individuals, how we all doing.
So ive been playing this thing called xbox for awhile and tbh its dog tonk, and i miss team play so guess what Fraggle is coming back to the PC world.
But thing is as ive been out for over a year now i have no idea on specs needed,
Now you know me, i'm a scrooge and hate spending money but i know i need a good running pc to play games nowadays.
So you brainy boys (excluding neph, only jk mate) i need some specs so i can start the emotional black mail on the wife to get her credit card out lol.
Its gona take a few months to build as i cant afford all the parts in one go.
And if anyone is selling some stuff please let me know.
Oh
Me and the wife are doing good, i'm now based in brecon wales as a Adventure training instructor, takin recruits rock climbing, caving, kayaking and canoing so if theres any welsh boys in here HI.
Kamila is doing good she's finished the first part of her CIMA (chartered institute of management accountancy) feck knows what she dose but she's doing good lol.
Will have to get on teamspeak some time and say hi.
What games are people playing now. Please Please tell me WOW has disapeared and no one plays it now lol.
Take care all and will be good to catch up.
P.S To the lads who have no idea who i am Just ask nepth he will tell you to keep away from me as i have a habbit of being the one who dies the most when needed in a clan match, Oops better to ask ritchie then he will only praise me lol
See you soon Cr0xs

good to see you safe frags
basically you need a 6 core AMD cpu
6Gb RAM
Gigabyte 790FX mobo
XFX XXX 5770 massivly overclocked graphics card
to play anything these days
nah im kidding your old system will do fine unless youve sold it 
if not ask and well give you the specs of a good one,
as for wow
its back and stronger than before, i myself have just dinged level 80?! i joke.
weve got the new call of duty Modern warefar 2 which sucks **** majorly, we have battlefield bad company 2 which is ace and we have cod4 and 5 still
PM fen and ask for the teamspeak details

hiya mate 
glad you got back safe n sound from afghanny mate 
im still around, although im not on ts that often these days. the ts3 server was a little unstable so bobbyD threw a server up on his dedi box that we have been running our wow guild comms on.
been meanin to post on here for ages to update everyone that im still around, and havent died( apologies to fen, was meaning t reply to your pm, just never got round to it lol)
were stilll playing left 4 dead 1 & 2, a wee bit of battlefield bad company 2 and a lot of wow 
karath, apoc, bobby, trystn, kludgie etc etc etc all playing various stuff, but main focus is still wow.
dont ever consider buying or playing modern warfare 2(cod), its *censored* rubbish. period.
if your up for some cod4, bfbc2 or ET, lemme know. more than ready to kick ass wid the fraggle 
ive sent you a pm mate, check it out

I know the feeling on cod4 mw2 was playing it on xbox and tbh played it for a couple of weeks and went on to bf2. Think this lap top could just about handle ET but thats maybe at a push lol will need to strip the config right down.
Once i have a head set i doubt my xbox one will work will be on ts lads.
Fecking wow maybe one day i could get into it, maybe.
