  1. This video not only aged well, it has become a collectors item

  7. I thought it was brilliant. Daisy chaining six 54-ish watt Molex connectors together obviously delivers a superior 324 watt experience. That's just good math right there.

  10. lol @ everyone griping about EVGA's style, not a peep about MSI & Strix cards looking like Megatron's fleshlight

  11. ​ @THELANKANCOMRADE  Women were 20% of the French Resistance, my dude. And French women were sent to concentration camps by the Reich at a 15% higher rate for their political views because they tended to be a lot saltier and likely to sass the Gestapo than french men.

  12. I've got a 5000D airflow and a Fractal Meshify 2 in the house right now, can confirm that the Fractal is just a bit more well thought out and easier to work with. No odd screw access angles or metal plates/cage origami to figure out. And can fit tons of hard disks. Definitely lighter weight construction to the Fractal, but cleaner in execution and fewer poor ergonomic choices, and far better, specific documentation for such things as the fan control header distribution.

  13.  @ieatchickens  In the defense of SLI, I generally was able to skip every other generation by just doubling up a card later. A pair of 1080's took me far and saved me much as an early 4k guy.

  15.  @THELANKANCOMRADE  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_World_War_II Stupid. Really stupid. Nearly a million were serving IN UNIFORM in the SS, the Luftwaffe, the Wehrmacht, the Kriegsmarine, they were concentration camp staff, and they even ran the Anti Air guns that shot down bombers and that the Allied Expeditionary forces overran. I suppose you consider that non combat? You're a special kind of dumb if you think the only thing that is a TROOP is an 11B infantryman.

  18.  @017nil  Because Dell uses bespoke parts designed specifically to not accept industry standard replacements. You have to buy their bottom shelf crap replacement or "upgrayedd" parts at double the price. Always have. There are only 2 reasons why they are still a huge name in the computing world: 1. US Government contracts 2. Corporate managers buy 100 PC's at a time without understanding Dell is crap, but easy to order and they recognize the brand name. In other words, your boss buys them because he's lazy and ignorant.

  22. Win10 was Microsoft's attempt to turn your $2k gaming PC into an iPhone.

  23.  @teknastyk  MS: "Hey guys, we updated Windows!" Everyone: "So you scattered all the buttons we use to places we can't find, and renamed as things that don't make sense. Gotcha."

  24.  @THELANKANCOMRADE  Yeah, I don't think you're picking up what this game was putting down. It's not just Yanks vs Jerries. And French resistance brigades were part of the offensive campaigns (en masse) that retook the country. It wasn't just bad poetry and worse attitudes. It was whole units moving in coordination with Allied units across the country. Did you not see DeGaulle's march on Paris and who was beside him? He actually made the rest of the Allied push wait to take Paris so he, his loyalist french army troops who escaped at Dunkirk, and resistance units from around the country could symbolically take the city together.

  26. Mathematically, this is unsurprising to me. Historically, my graphics solutions have cost about 50% of what I spend on a display that really matches all that power. A pair of 2080 Ti's will cost me about $2200, is what I am going to need to power a BFGD display, projected to cost about $4k. If that sounds horribly expensive to you, you should try some other hobbies like keeping a Jeep CJ-5 in parts, or restoring a classic Camaro. And I promise you, I get more hours of use per dollar spent on my PC.

  28. It hasn't gone far enough. Where's muh RGB Hard Drives? I needs a Disco Raid 0+1 array.

  29. @Jerel Wayne Most definitely they would rather I had thrown the first 1080 in the trash and spent 1200 on a 2080Ti, but 600 for a second card worked more or less as well for my needs

  30. While I agree with you in so far as I couldn't give a fuck about an end user agreement after shelling out hundreds of bucks for a thing which I now OWN in the real physical universe, at which point you can go fuck yourself telling me how to use it, I can't help but see comments like Brian's as sounding curiously like pitch for AMD stock shares. But GPUs aren't something we lease. We BUY them. If I buy a Civic, Honda doesn't get to tell me that car isn't allowed to to drive to Austria with a snowboard strapped to the roof. They just don't. EULA's have gone batshit in 2017, as have marketing targets. Case in point: We have a simulator system with a grossly overpriced, and 4 years out-of-date Quadro card in tower. All it does is draw some extremely low rez graphics for practicing artillery fire, and some light geography physics. The card itself is a POS, and could have been more than ably serviced with a $240 gaming solution, but because it's being used in a military application, some genius with shit for brains was sold the $2000 turd GPU for each and every simulator. It's all about shafting the customer with double talk, fancy buzz words, acceptable "application" manipulation, and contract deals with people who don't know better.

  31. Oh goodie. 5% cheaper memory should barely help offset tariffs jacking my $2000 build up to $2500. Instead it will cost $2490. Yay. The PC building biz in the US is about to eat the Big Red Weenie for the next 2 years. Brace yourselves, Newegg.

  32.  @tacticalcenter8658  Of course not. AMD only invests in #1 Scoring the Bronze Medal since the Radeon 6950, and #2 paying kids to comment bomb for them

  33. Does it matter when you're Just Going To Buy It ?

  34. 1. Yep. It's changed how much I dig gaming again. 2. Gaming first, Porn second (oh get over yourselves..), Watching friends come over and get their minds blown while playing Eve:Valkyrie third (it's like being the first kid on the block with a NES in the 80's), Using it as a pretty badass display in it's own right for everyday computing with Virtual Desktop fourth, and lastly, but not least, finding something that made me love and get excited about being a PC guy again. Something that has been missing since we're stuck in a "Oh look, higher framerate and resolution, but otherwise the same-old, same-old" rut. 3. $600 total for a headset AND hand tracking controls is fine. We spend more than that on good displays, keyboards, mice, and headsets when added together. And now I'm going to save for a GTX 1080 hybrid, which will cost nearly as much as a Vive itself.

  35. Because if your Graphics don't look good, WE don't look good.

  36.  @giovannibrena3913  Amazing. I thought Apple fanbois were bad about pretending to be some unappreciated, oppressed minority. AMD is not the Rebel Alliance taking on the Computing Empire. It's just another company, but with deeper cult overtones and some pretense about being The People's Only Choice. If they finally live up to their GPU hype and can produce useful drivers , Ill buy. If not, I wont. Not difficult, viral marketing fandom and comment bombing doesn't sway me.

  39.  @uss_04  LOL, it's so easy to get the basement dwellers all fired up and foaming at the mouth, especially when their manhood is at stake over a video game. Instant trigger bait. They absolutely lose their shit every time whenever the words "historical accuracy" appear, and suddenly they are YouTube Perry Mason.

  43. I just couldn't love it. Edge of Tomorrow is OK. But, as always, back to baring my fangs and cursing loudly enough to alarm my neighbors in Eve: Valkyrie. I should really close my windows when playing something competitive. They must think I have Tourettes by now.

  46. Boy it sure does seem like you really are devoting a lot of time to convincing people you are right. An unreasonable amount, actually. Need validation much?

  48. If Acer put their Gateway or eMachines branding on their cards, I would be into it. Yeah, that's right: Gateway and eMachines still exist. They're just owned by Acer now. Compaq is still out there too. HP just sells the branding exclusively outside the US. Who wouldn't love to have a Gateway 4090 Ti in Holstein Moo Moo print?

  49. Same, the series still really holds up after these years

  50.  @Obie327  It would explain why Intel neutered the 9700k. Year after year the x700k of the current gen dominates all CPU sales, and gives gamers zero reason to go back to the days of $900 processors, except for maybe the twitch stream queens.
