    New card or wait?

    I think you're going to be disappointed in any single card's ability to play modern games at 4k or UW 1440p at high settings. Even an overclocked 980ti is going to struggle to keep 60fps in a lot of modern games at those resolutions.

    JBL LSR305 PAIR of Powered Monitors $199 @amazon

    Depends on the sound you want. Older JBL's have a specific sound profile, which isn't really flat. I haven't heard these monitors to know if they don't color the sound too much. Chane bought out Arx which use split gap XBL tech (JBL) midrange drivers...

    Flickering

    I submitted a bug report. I get this too. It feels driver/clock related because the card is super stable otherwise. There are no crashes or anything with it - in fact this machine in general has been the most stable I can recall using. The problem as occurs is described here...

    Fallout 4

    Has anyone determined if the engine can handle more than 4gb of ram usage before it implodes? Modded skyrim used to hit that wall and just die. If this still can't, it will be extremely disappointing.

    Fallout 4 Performance and Image Quality Preview @ [H]

    I'm bummed out that it's a bugfest again. I wish they'd just release a solid engine and base game that doesn't shit itself nonstop and then slowly add content. A stable modding base would be so much nicer. I guess the numbers aren't there to do that because consoles. I remember how solid...

    Looks like it was first found after an exploited a vulnerability in magento?

    Silent Linux Desktop Workstation

    I'd say definitely not 840 SSD's and definitely not in raid for a workstation.

    Skylake vs. overclock 2500k reviews?

    Almost no point upgrading from OC'd Sandy. Every time I read reviews of skylake that "What a piece of junk" quote from Star Wars comes to mind when they first see the Millenium Falcon. It's just depressing how little innovation Intel has done in the past 8? years now. We have what, onboard...

    First Skylake OC report (bring the salt)

    This is not impressive at all after looking at leaked benches on other sites :\ Another haswell.

    Introducing The LeanChair!

    This is going to be horrible for people's necks. You already develop forward head posture in a chair, with this thing you're in forward head posture city. Between this and the crossfit craze, you come out looking like a genius if you got your doctorate in Physical Therapy.

    Google Fiber Sends Automated Piracy ‘Fines’ to Subscribers

    I pay for a cable subscription. I'm just too lazy to DVR shit so I have it download shows I'm watching automatically. not really wrong. don't care who says it is. not going to shame me into anything, but that's cool that you're calling everyone an asshole with your whole universal morality...

    The Horrible World Of Video Game Crunch

    No wonder people are so soulless and miserable. I like working hard and doing a good job but once I go over 50 hours and consistently sit there week after week it is objectively making me a worse person. Spending that much time on IT things means there's less time with family, less time to...

    Having a hard time finding a X99 and NAS case

    You basically need to save up for something like a CaseLabs case. Your needs are too fringe for mass market cases to perform well and fit all the criteria you need.

    No physical volume on Dac and Amp, questions?

    Any level controller will work, you can use the kind designed for car audio without issue. Spending more just gets you something prettier. I have an SM Nano Patch Plus.

    Is Comcast throttling customers? Is there a data cap? Everything is so slow.

    I had 3 modems fail with comcast and @home who they absorbed. The first was a 3com that would need to be reset and cool down after downloading or uploading a significant amount of data. The second was a motorola surfboard modem that kept restarting itself. The last was a motorola modem that...
