Trying it with 267 all resistance, 6.1k armour and 10.1k dps
Still getting instant shot in act 2 inferno. This almost isn't even fun any more.
Same. I even have 300+ resistance with the same stats you have. I'm definitely not convinced that the 30% damage reduction is in for monks and barbs. Our group has been farming Act 1 Inferno for 3 days now without much to show for it because drops are so lackluster. Apparently 300%+ magic find isn't enough to find anything worthwhile.
Some people do care, and they do not care that you do not care. There are many more meaningful goals to achieve than telling others what you care about or not.
I don't know much about your Xtreme Gear PSU but as long as it is a quality 500w power supply then you should be fine with 90% of the video cards out there.
Oh, woops. Yeah, 520 is an entry level card for the 500 series. I really have no idea how well it would perform.
Did you not test it out during open beta?
Here is a good chart to show GPU performance across all GeForce cards. It will give you a good idea of how the GTX 260 I use and the 520 you use stacks up.
Ultimately, you want to use FPS benchmark comparisons when choosing the card you want, but the above is a good chart nonetheless.
The best cost-to-performance card right now is the GTX 480. It runs hotter and uses more power than just about every card though. I would suggest an ATI card as well but they are usually behind on getting drivers out for new games so I stick with EVGA GForce cards.
in my experience all the things you did leading up to the game will go out the window on the day of release and things like "why don't you do those things anymore" start coming out of the woodwork. if anything you may very well have made it worse for yourself.
competition win is genius though.
My thoughts exactly. We should want to help out on a daily basis but sometimes that isn't enough. The nagging will start again eventually anyway.
The funniest thing is that women say they want a guy that will cook, clean, etc. Then, once they get it, they aren't satisfied. It's sad to think of it like this but I've learned it's better to not overachieve when it comes to being a good spouse/significant other. They end up expecting more and more and then get angry when you can't deliver.

Words to live by.

"I see what's going on in here. So sorry to interrupt!"
+1 for use of penguin in profile.
