This thread really devolved. If you look at some the larger screenshots in this reply with Aloy's face in them, I think she looks stunning. She might not look incredible at all angels but she's hot. I'm fine with her character design, I think she...

An ex smoker (thankfully only a short time) who almost burnt his shirt while playing CS and smoking at the same time (20 years ago in a college dorm where smoking wasn't allowed lol), take it from me that you need to quit, first for yourself...

I only have a few devices that are 2.5gb and they all get full bandwidth, so they're good enough for me.

I bought a few Keeplink 2.5gb switches, so far they work great. I'm using 10gb SFP between two of them, also works flawlessly. This one looks nice for the two SFP ports, the ones I got only have one each, but they were also cheaper (I think $65...

For me, the big one was back when I was working for a small IT company doing small/medium business stuff. We had a lot of clients with Unifi APs attached to a cloud key that we controlled, so we had several sites on the key for different...

People don't want Epic Online Services installed on their PC, that is what the issue is.

I don't think you have to have the EGS launcher installed to play the game, but it does require an EGS account for multiplayer, from what it sounds like, because it uses EGS servers.

Well at least Intel is still trying. The tech they are pushing for anything not DX11/12 or Vulkan is pretty awesome. It’s all translation layers, I’m just happy they haven’t thrown in the towel. They are at least trying to improve things and...

My big issue with them is the planned obsolescence. I've never had a ton of issues actually using their products before, except when they decide to take away features you had previously to drive you towards new hardware.

I meant compared to EK AIOs, sorry - that's all I have experience with from them.

And AIOs by companies like Arctic being cheaper and arguably better.

I have an EK AIO that had a weird pump whine and after some use one of the fans died. It was still under warranty, after some verification they sent me a brand new unit and didn't even want the old one back. So my experience with them has been...

I've paid for Windows many times over already, the same versions in fact. If Microsoft wants to keep shoving ads and other annoying crap into the OS, they don't need my money to pay for the privilege. And honestly Linux has come a long way, if...

Yeah, after discovering this I'm never buying Windows keys anymore. I used to buy the cheap ones that would only work once, and fuck paying full price for Windows.

Logitech has been generally good, though I have had to replace switches on them because they developed a double-click issue. I've had the G700 (x2), G602 and G604. I liked the G700 best feel-wise, but those both had switch problems after a fair...

Yeah I understand the distinction, and it's fair, I just think it's kind of silly to presume that a unit that processes graphics can't be called a GPU because it doesn't process "all" of the graphics? I dunno. It's not a serious issue to me...

I get what you're saying and I respect that. I do, however, feel that the first GPU to include T&L sets it apart from its forefathers. Before this inclusion, the CPU was still doing some of the heavy lifting. Not all of it obviously, and...

It's admittedly pretty fun to just hop in a random game and shoot some stuff. I have noticed a non-trivial number of idiots/assholes though, which is a shame. But generally it's pretty good.
