Only the default (TGN Light) theme for now. Dark them is also coming back soon. Then CSN. Then Wrestlin' Nation. A lot of WIP stuff right now. There are a couple of things still not working either. Sorry.
I went for 3 months on a 6600 vanilla before going to the 6800GT, I was quite happy to upgrade. I don't think I can last on medium/low again.
*EDIT* Tip for 6600 vanilla, replace the cooling on it with a badaz 6800 third party cooling and OC the hell out of those card. Arguably one of the best video cards since the 4200 Ti in terms of price and potential, sadfully I didn't experiment until after I upgraded. This was true for at least the time.
Trying to plan a PC build now for BF3 is pointless - you will likely end up disappointed and wasting money. There just isn't enough known about the game yet - not the engine, not even the release date/timeframe (all we know is "not this fiscal year"...but that doesn't mean "next fiscal year", however).
If BF3 is a really big/advanced game, there's also a chance the current Frostbite engine can't handle it...maybe it would be a Frostbite 1.5 or 2.0 version...and if that's the case, even using BF:BC2 as a basis for specs wouldn't be enough.
A friend of mine in the tech industry always says to only upgrade for what you need now, not for future, because:
- specs change
- new tech comes out
- prices change
A lot of people rush out to upgrade for a game or app that's months down the road, but often if they'd wait, they'd make a smarter choice later on, AND even find a better deal on cheaper pieces of tech.
Have patience, do your research, then spend your money when you're sure. Don't jump the gun.
3.00 Ghz are you crazy, isn't that the top of the line. And aswell with sky rocket price?
I doubt a quad core in necessary. So many people have the Core 2 Duo Exxx CPU's and they tend to run games better than Quaddies because of the higher FSB.

Well I dont think everyone overclocks their cpus (I do). You dont need quad core for any game these days (maybe arma2). But I do love my corei7 @ 4ghz for my 3dsmax work etc :yay:
Lots of games have Quad now for recommended specs. I can totally see it, maybe just a dual or hyper threaded P4 for min, but definitely quad for recommended. Look at the recommended specs for GTA IV and ARMA 2.
