Super handy, thanks.

Thanks, gang. The masses finding PC building has definitely turbofucked the utility of crowd-sourced reviews.

Is there any particular reason why the user reviews for every SATA SSD I've checked out are absolute dogshit? Trying to find an SSD for an older productivity laptop and I'm having zero luck finding any option that is particularly well recommended.

Not sure how i missed that this was in the works. Looks like it flows a lot better than the first one not sure I like some of the art direction as much though.

Tell me about it. He's older and cloud averse.

Friend had his MSI z77a-gd65 give up the ghost. It's throwing 19/55/4F codes and memory and PSU have been ruled out as the cause. There's no indication of any data loss on any of his drives and he had backups of everything critical, save for his bookmarks and saved passwords from Vivaldi and...

Oh man, are the journocommies and indie cliquesters ever gonna be cry over this.

This. At a minimum, NSA knew about this shit if they didn't commission it. I saw a series of posts on another board last night where security dudes were listing intrusions/breaches by suspected state actors that had never been adequately explained, but matched up with what you could...

This is like BP during DeepWater Horizon. They can't say anything that can be shown to negatively impact shareholder value. So they are lying.

You laugh, but I've met marketing types that would demand a meeting to talk through that proposal. In terms of outcome though, Intel deliberately slowing down chips would be met with a reaction closer to when John Deere started bricking tractors/combines remotely with bad software updates...

I've been hearing rumbles that the SEC is looking for a BIG scalp to take, and here you have this asshole stropping the razor for them/

I need to lose some lard, so i'm adding a TV/Kodi box to my exercise room. Wall space limits me to sub-55" models. I only need 60hz 1080p with "OK" input lag for stuff like Xcom, willing to go 4k for a good deal though. What is my best bang for the buck option in the 48-50" size? Probably going...

Twitter is a dying platform. Between this and all of the other throttling systems they've been adding for the last 2 years, it's virtually impossible to have a conversation on the platform, let alone see tweets from people you follow. Twitter is barely even usable as a marketing platform...

Unless the delay it to remove UPlay, I don't give a fuck. The only reason I broke my 6+ year Ubisoft boycott to pick up the Stick of Truth was that it didn't have UPlay.

Looking for an upgrade from my Nexus 4. It's in good cosmetic shape, but starting to get flaky and the battery life just isn't there any more, even with the usual suspect apps removed. My budget is $300-400. I was looking at the Moto X Pure 32gb, but I think they've been out for a while now...

So waaaay back in 2005 I went in for the best 20" IPS on the market, the NEC 20WMGX2. Blacks like a pool of India ink, viewing angles as close as I've ever seen to 180 degrees, zero input lag, glossy 1680x1050 display, all for a mere $580 each. I will say though, I totally have gotten my...

I grabbed a 3TB HDD earlier and power supply for my pedal board. Haven't seen a single thing that interests me otherwise.

Pretty much. I won't discount the great things he's done, and he's been working, but it's been 10+ years since he released anything worth your time.

Another thing to remember is that this is a hardware beta. I wouldn't take any individual feature of the controller as 100% set in stone, least of all the button placement

Do keep this in mind however gang... None of this cash is actually going to the devs.

Anyone that doesn't have it, owes themselves a copy of Bastion. How is Tropico 4?

I'm guessing it won't be until the 4th one is out. They don't want to devalue the "Season Pass." :rolleyes:

Grabbing Hotline Miami and Warhammer.

Prices aren't exactly blowing me away this time, I'm hoping the winter sale will be better.

Well judging by the quality of service I'm getting so far, i'm just gonna bite the bullet and buy a replacement while this RMA is plodding along. :mad: I keep hearing good things about Gigabyte so i'm looking hard at the GA-Z77X-UD5H, are there better options out there in the $150-200ish range?

Clearing CMOS broke the reboot loop, i was able to get in and updated the BIOS to the new one from last week. However, after 40 minutes the system rebooted and went back into a loop, this time with both the CPU and the the Memory LEDs lighting. So i'm thinking flaky mobo, I'm going to open...

So my new Ivy Bridge box, that's been up and running for almost a month to the day, spontaneously rebooted itself about 20 minutes ago and is now in a reboot loop, refusing to post. The CPU LED is the only one that lights and then goes out after roughly 5 seconds when the system tries to...

I got my new system up and running today so I took my first whack DayZ. Pretty cool so far, I'm on my second life, spawned in right in front of a fully operational bus, with injector pens and blood bags scattered everywhere. jacked the loot and the ride, and headed up the highway, I'm now...

Given the number of people paying attention now, i'm guessing we'll know shortly.

I might jump on this for my desk top and move it to my laptop once prices on the larger drives drop some more.

I have to say, I've gotten some good chuckles from all the entitled nerd rage on the ARMA2 Steam forums since it went on sale for only 40% off. :D

Build updated again. I remembered that I had a new Cooler Master 690 II that I'd bought for a project that got shelved in the basement, so I'm good to go in that department. I think I'm gonna start grabbing stuff based on this, see what pops up on sale this weekend. The only thing I'm...

Updated build after taking into account thread feedback. I figure I have ~ $300 left to cover a PSU and SSD. I'm gonna allow up to $120 for a SSD and figure on a PSU budget of < $180. Would one of these...

I got the Fedex/USPS horseshit for the first time a couple weeks ago, box finally showed up two days late from one state away. Best advice I can give you is to call and bitch. They get enough complaints they may end this stupidity.

I'm sticking with my pair of NEC 20wmgx2s until they die, unless I run across a screaming deal on a 24", 16:10, glossy IPS panel in the meantime. I like to run my games as close to maxed out as possible. When I did my last build, the 8800 was pretty overkill for that resolution as well, but I...

*Build updated per thread feedback* Case not needed, Forgot about the brand new CM 690 II i bout on clearance many moons ago. I'm waaaay out of the loop, 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming: AMRA2, TF2, Skyrim, FPS Soldier Mother Fucker...

Deus Ex for 7.50? That's got my vote.

HA! No kidding! I didn't realize this had actually been released.
