    Store 10 GB data for 7-8 years, SSD?

    Definitely use a Jazz drive

    So is all this madness still in full swing?

    Easy to understand why PC gamers feel the right to the cards. We've been buying cards for 25 years, the profits which are used to create new and better cards. Then all of a sudden, the dynamic changes and opportunists with no prior investment in the industry prevent us from buying the newest...

    You'd now have $20,000. Who would have guessed it 😂

    Terminal GPU upgrade for sandy bridge?

    Thanks for advice. I went with the 2060. GPU and CPU utilization both range between 90-100% in my preliminary testing, so they seem pretty well balanced. I might try to get a bit more out of this CPU, 4.7 or 4.8 ghz doesn't seem impossible. If I can ride out this system that I built in 2011...

    Terminal GPU upgrade for sandy bridge?

    My [email protected] is paired with a 1440p 60Hz display driven by a 970 GTX. Thinking about giving this system one last GPU upgrade. I'm drawn to the 1660 Ti or 2060 RTX. Cost really isn't an issue as long as there is a performance benefit, but I don't want to waste money on more GPU than this...

    Oculus Rift VR and Touch $400 Newegg

    Good to see these coming down, but reeks of permanent price drop / new hardware around the corner

    Extra EVGA 1080 GTX ACX 3.0, what to do with it?

    I'd be very concerned that this dude is going to take your money and send you a 2x4. Buyer beware

    What got you into PCs and PC gaming? What year and why?

    Played a bunch of apple IIGS shovelware back in the day. Would have to tip my hat to DOOM on my pentium I 66 MHz, however, as stealing my heart to PC gaming. Still, leaned heavily on consoles as the 'better' platform until PC networks and netcodes improved to the point where playing online was...

    Who's still running i5-2500K?

    2500k overclocked to 4.4 since 2011. Works great with recent GPU upgrade to a 970. Added an SSD a few years ago, wworld of difference. Plays everything I want it to at 1440p with modest settings. No urge to CPU upgrade. Used to upgrade all the time in the 90's/2000's, always thought I'd be...

    How much better would the Saturn have been had these issues been fixed?

    Was an early adopter. Loved Virtua Fighter 2, panzer dragoon, nights, wipeout, sega rally, daytona USA. Was always waiting for a 3D sonic, but it never came

    Steam Controller or Steam Link are $35 at Amazon. Free Shipping.

    Also have had both since day 1. Agree that WiFi performance of the link is somewhat spotty to my living room tv, but works reasonably well. I use powerline ethernet with my desktop and it works wonderfully in certain situations. Witcher 3? Steamlink + steam remote Rocket league? link +...
