The 6770 is not worth buying, the 7770 will fit nicely, and the 560ti or 660ti will blow the PSU. The 7770 and the GTX 550Ti i mentioned above are pretty much at the limits of the current PSU.

You will get the most bang for your buck by upgrading the video card. The CPU will hold you back from getting a non budget card, but it doesn't seem like you are in the market for more than that. Also consider your stock PSU (300w) that is in your current computer can only put out so much power. You are limited unless you want to upgrade your PSU as well, which really isn't recommended at this point. I would say pick up a GTX 550ti http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130625 which should match your system nicely, not tax your PSU to the point of death, and will handidly outperform your 8400. The GTX 550ti is roughly on par with two 9800GTs in tandem (SLI), and while its a budget card, you really cannot put a more powerful card into your system without blowing your PSU or being bottlenecked by your CPU. Like pupperworx stated, the 7770 is also a good option, which is just about on par with the GTX 550ti. Really just depends if you prefer Nvidia or ATI. Like many people here have stated, there is really no point in dumping additional funds to overhaul a computer that really should be replaced. With that said, you can drop $100 on a video card and get some decent life out of it until you upgrade.

I shoot people simply for the target practice.

Sorry, but you are plain wrong. I understand how it may seem obvious that someone who pays for a server should have the right to control the individuals that play on it. However, since this is linked to a central HIVE, that linkage comes with certain rules, rules that Devil's Advocate clearly pointed out. In order to have free access to the HIVE, you must conform to those rules or face a potential blacklist. It sucks, but thats the way things are. its not a matter of opinion, you are just plain wrong.

Some times when you put items in an inventory without room, it will place the item(s) on the ground next to you. I would take some time and look around you, in a 25m or so radius.

Those kind of people deserve a swift shot to the head. They would not survive the real zombie apocalypse, why should they have a chance in a virtual one.

I would say any of the combinations including NVGs should have the M107 swapped with a DMR. No reason to really have NVGs and and Gun you cannot use them with in a combo. Good Combo would be L85, NVG, DMR, Ghillie.

Uninstall, now.

Can we have a alt-f4 skin to brand disconnectors. This way, I can stop wasting ammo on people that are just going to DC. A dunce cap maybe, or remove an article of clothing every time they DC. Would be hilarious to see people running around in their birthday suits.

Deer stands and Zelenogorsk, you can get everything there outside of medical supplies and vehicles that you would get in Cherno or Electro

Respawn was removed due to people constantly refreshing to get a different spawn. It was not aimed to prevent people from relocating, and the idea of giving people the option of choosing a spawn point was even humored. Instead, this was causing incredible server lag. Deal with it. Single player mode? Really? You're pissed you can no longer hack items or avoid pvp? No reason to play on a private server outside of carebearism. As to the point about Alt+F4, why would you do that if you can just abort out. You will not be punished at all in this patch, let alone in the future as speculative punishment will be based on reaccuring events. In your case, you must rage so hard once you encounter a bug that you must Alt+F4 to express your rage, or you are duping/avoiding death/doing something you probably shouldn't be doing in the first place.

Don't log out in Cherno, or the Barracks, or Stary Sobor. Anywhere, ANYWHERE else and you will not get sniped on login. You're own stupidity got you killed.

Would it be worthwhile having a loot lock function to a server for a time period after looting on that server? Once you loot an item on any given server, you are locked into looting on that server only for a time period of a hour. This will help solve the server hopper issue as they will have to effectively only loot things on one server, and will not hurt individuals looking for a server based on conditions. If you log onto a server and do not pick anything up, you will not be server locked and will be uneffected. Server hoppers will still exist, but correct me if I am wrong, server hoppers really benefit from farming different servers and would be hurt if they were locked into a server with regard to loot for a long period of time. Pros: - Should hinder server hoppers abusing loot spawns sufficiently that they are subject to loot cycling instead of hopping which comes with a much greater risk. - Should not impact innocent individuals looking for servers to play on - Should have little impact to those with connection issues, understanding that they would need to connect to the same server they were disconnected from unless the server is full. However, if you know you have connection issues, you shouldn't be playing on full servers in the first place. Cons: - Will not prevent the first item/server loot, in the event someone is doing this for one item only, say NVGs. - Will not prevent people from ghosting (even though this is not the topic of the thread)

I agree with Electrolye in that you should probably find your own path. However, there are some key things to understand about the game. Deer blinds are a gold mine, never pass them up. Avoid large cities (Cherno, Electra, Bere) unless you need a massive amount of medical supplies. Grocery stores can spawn practically everything you need, run to a inland city with a grocery store and start your loot process there. Scope out towns before you enter, if zombies, move on. Spend as little time in any location as possible..

Deer blinds can spawn DMRs, which in my opinion is one of the best sniper rifles in the game. I want to say they can also spawn M14 Aims, but not sure if that is limited to barracks (NW Airfield) or heli crash sites. Other than that, you are limited to CZ550s, found in large barns with stairs shown as large green circles on the map. In all honesty though, I prefer an AKM, other AK variants, M4s and M16s over the CZ, which can all be found commonly in deer blinds. Also, MP5SDs and M9SD can be found in deer blinds as well. While tempting, they are crap at killing players and zombies. Their ammo is also fairly rare, so recommending avoiding silenced weapons altogether unless its an M4A3 SD. If you do happen to find a DMR though, cherish that thing. It will be good to you. On another note, the lee enfield is nicknamed the dinner bell for a reason. Do no shoot it anywhere near town or you will agro the whole thing.
