    My R4 is being delivered to my grandparents house on wednesday and I will be collecting it from them in a couple of weeks.

    They have no Internet access so what programs/drivers should I take with me on my external hdd? What Display drivers are best for the 7970 at present?

    I will be staying with my grandparents for a week and want to test my new system thoroughly in that time before I go overseas again just incase I have to return it.

    Set up your phone to be able to do some Wi-Fi tethering in case you get in a jam. :)
