Far Cry 2 on Intel Core i7

Just got a seed unit of the new Intel Core i7 and a copy of Far Cry 2 to play with. Intel announced the release of the new Core i7 quad-core CPUs last Friday which targets enthusiasts and hard-core gamers.

The system came in with the whole battalion of accessories.

The Far Cry 2 installation disks.
core i7
A 20″ ViewSonic LCD monitor.

A logitech cordless desktop and laser mouse (LX 710 Laser).

And my favorite Gigabyte 3D Aurora case (I have a similar one bought months ago.) core i7

I still have the Intel E8500 lent to me a couple of months back and with my own Core 2 Quad Q6600, I should be able to compare all 3 CPUs side by side (minus the graphics cards because each system has a different one).

Hi there just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the images aren’t loading properly. I’m not sure why but I think its a
linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same results.

I drop a comment when I like a post on a site or if I have something to valuable to contribute to
the conversation. It is triggered by the passion communicated in the post I looked
at. And on this post Far Cry 2 on Intel Core i7 – YugaTech | Philippines, Tech
News & Reviews. I was excited enough to drop a thought :-) I do have 2 questions for you if you don’t mind. Is it just me or does it look like some of these comments appear like they are written by brain dead people? :-P And, if you are posting on other online social sites, I would like to follow everything new you have to post. Could you list all of all your community sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
