Geforce GTX 670 video card made by Asus. I have upgraded, the card worked just fine earlier today. I would not recommend using it to play high end cutting edge games published in the last 2-3 years, but for older games, for word processing, database or spreadsheet work it will be wonderful.

Now we have one happening in Kauika Rd in the Avenues. They want to build 95 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom units on the site but plan for parking for only 80 cars. The plan is that many of the tenants won't need or have cars. Good luck with that one!. On a very conservative estimation we might expect 150 cars which means that 70 cars have to find street parking. Then they have to be able to get out of Kauika road onto the very busy Maunu road, so we should expect large queues sitting and getting frustrated, eventually taking the risk to push out with whatever result that will bring.
The street already has a sewage problem which they plan to deal with, at least as long as it is off site and council's (rate payers) problem. Then we have the stormwater which goes into the Kirikiri stream. In major weather events, as we have recently seen, this stream is at capacity, but its flows have never been measured during peak flows. The banks are already eroding. My question is where is the liability when such massive developments affect others. Do we have to start litigations like America?
