    Disney's New Streaming Service Will Include "The Entire Disney Motion Picture Library"

    Key words are "motion picture library", which is fancy for movies, feature films, etc, not all historical Disney content. But I already have this on my Plex server, so yeah.

    Volvo to Impose 112 MPH Speed Limit on All New Cars from 2020

    Yeah I'm aware of that one lol, but that wasnt bought new and tracked, nor is it stock lol. I mean not that you can't, but there much better options if you want to go to the track on the weekend than a volvo, and really a used car you can setup properly is the best option.

    Volvo to Impose 112 MPH Speed Limit on All New Cars from 2020

    112 is perfectly reasonable, this is also an S rated tire's Max safe sustained speed and they're standard on many vehicles, so that's probably why that particular number. 112 gives plenty of room for passing manuevers on high speed roads. Public roads really aren't any place for triple digits...

    The Division 2 Will Get an Open Beta

    Beta was alright. Lots of crashes running in dx12, fine in dx11 though. I'll wait till it's on sale though and play through the pve content, the PvP is massively unbalanced. Who ever gets to the dark zone first and gears up wins. Gear is supposed to be normalized but I watched guys just...

    The Division 2 PC Features and Specifications Have Been Released

    I enjoyed the first Division game for awhile, but the lack of content and PvP being over run with hacks killed it quick. I'll give the beta a shot. And who is going for 60 fps at 1080/1440p these days....everyone is shooting 120+. Though this is more mmo than fps so guess the lower targets...

    Los Angeles Alleges the Weather Channel App Deceptively Mined User Data for Profit

    The weather channel's website is hot F'ing garbage, I can't think of a page with longer load times and failures to load. The fact their app is crap is not surprising.

    EA Stock Plummets by $21 Billion as Battlefield V Sales Disappoint

    ......Because they didn't want too...despite historical accuracy they're still trying to tell a story...and it allows them to extend the life of the game. Why does every game have content released later.

    EA Stock Plummets by $21 Billion as Battlefield V Sales Disappoint

    I am not going to pretend to know what SJW PC is...but appealing to as many consumers as possible is straight out of your first business and economics classes. But yeah, there's lots of weenies in the gaming community, so that doesn't surprise me.

    EA Stock Plummets by $21 Billion as Battlefield V Sales Disappoint

    lol, you mean attempt to sell and attract more female gamers, and sweaty nerds that like to play as female avatars, don't pretend it's anything else, recognize it, and move on with your life. The fact you even care enough to not want women in the game is just beyond me...don't be such a weenie.

    EA Stock Plummets by $21 Billion as Battlefield V Sales Disappoint

    I cannot believe the number of weenies that have issues with "historical accuracy" and women in the game lol. Videos game are not, and have never been purveyors of accuracy of anything, historical or otherwise, they're 100% bullshit and meant just for wasting time instead of being productive...

    DICE Apologizes to Battlefield V Players for Dumbing Down the Game

    I've played every BF, and enjoyed them all, including Hardline which, while not "battlefield" in tthe strictest sense was a super fun FPS with lots of movement and speed, the vehicles weren't damage sponges and it was WAY better than BF1. TTK is not the issue with BFV, TTD certainly is, along...

    Surround Sound - PC>Receiver>Speakers??

    Ok so I hooked it up to the HDMI out on the 1080ti and the surround works, but the receiver shows up as 2nd display, so I assume it's being sent a video signal. I'm worried about how that will impact gysnc and overall performance now, as I don't want the additional video signal. Disabling the...

    Surround Sound - PC>Receiver>Speakers??

    I made the assumption the SPDIF optical output would support 5.1 sound on my Gigabyte X470 Gaming Ultra, it appears it does not. I can't find much on what my options are other than 3.5mm cables with rca adapters. I prefer not to run the audio off the video card, but I'm not sure if I can run...

    Battlefield V Tides of War Chapter 1: Overture

    You can't sell games with Nazi stuff in some countries, but theres plenty of German stuff so not sure what all the cry babying is about. And all the whining weenies complaining about being called out on being total weenies is hilarious. It's like they don't realize video games are 100% BS and...

    Battlefield V Tides of War Chapter 1: Overture

    Honestly all the starting guns are pretty damn good, and come fully specialized. Only shoot when you can get a kill, and when you do get a kill you show up on enemies minimap, so don't stay still unless you want to get hosed.

    Sony's Mobile Division Is Losing More than the Gaming Division Is Making

    I bought a z3c, it was exactly what I wanted spec wise, but the back glass cracked the second day while in my pocket, and the screen cracked the first time I dropped it 2 weeks later, while in a case. I went back to cheap phones after that.

    Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti Official Performance Charts Leaked

    ...so 4k will still pretty much suck, as these mean there will still be lots of drops of below 60fps. With the crack pipe pricing I can't see too many adopting...maybe they'll push 1440p at 200+ fps easily though, so who knows.

    NVIDIA’s Lower-Tier 2000-Series Cards May Not Support Ray Tracing

    So...no ray tracing on lower cards...higher card purchasers won't use it because they'll be wanting running 1440p 100+fps/hz. Congratulations nvidia on advancing nothing, and creating something no game developers are going to support, especially when those games will be using AMD gpu's on the...

    Battlefield V on PC to Include Profanity Filter

    Yeah a filter is too weak, the racist bullshit in all games needs to get perma bans, but needs to be implemented on voice chat as well. EA and other game makers are not the government, the 1st amendment doesn't protect you from the private consequences of being an insufferable piece of shit...

    DICE Made Nvidia’s Ray Traced Gaming Dreams a Reality in Just Eight Months

    Lol, no. We've been playing 1080p 60fps for near a decade. 1440p is just in it's real stride, then they go backwards to make shit "shiny", the setting everyone pretty much turns down for fps lol.

    Intel Core i9-9900K Shows Up in 3DMark Time Spy, Beats the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X

    2700x can already be had in the 280-290 range if you grab it on sale or part of a combo. I expect we'll see that will drop to $250 shortly before Intel's launch, especially since the 2600x is already regularly in the $180-190 range these days. That said I'll upgrade to zen 2 or whatever's...

    EA’s Subscription Service Origin Access Premier Launches Next Week

    If you only play a games for a short period this isn't terrible. However if you play a title like BF until the next BF, you'd only pay $60 for two years of play, vs. $200.

    Asrock X470 Master SLI/AC - fan profiles

    Stock 2600x cooler, it's not the fan, it responds fine, the mobo just isn't adjusting the speed as temps increase on any of the preprogrammed fan profiles or the custom one you can set the curve yourself.

    Asrock X470 Master SLI/AC - fan profiles

    Yes, but all the headers are controllable. This is specifically for the CPU fan1 header. 4 pin stock 2600x cooler.

    AMD Dominates the Battlefield V Closed Alpha

    Yeah, the alpha and beta for BF1 were nothing like the actual release hardware performance wise so I wouldn't read much into this. My 3570k and SLI 660tis killed in alpha and beta, but shit the bed come release barely keeping 50fps with lots of dips into the 20-30s.

    Asrock X470 Master SLI/AC - fan profiles

    So just did a build for my cousin with this board and with a 2600x and none of the fan profiles seem to work. As CPU temps increase the fan speeds are not increasing as per a custom profile or the preloaded profiles. The fans just stay at the initial speed. Fan profiles are set to monitor CPU...

    Disney Wants to Dump Star Wars Boss Kathleen Kennedy, but There’s a Problem

    I'll never forgive how Luke went out, it was so lame, all those interviews Mark was right to complain about how Luke was handled. Now I will torrent them instead of go to the theater. I let TFA slide as a reboot setup film, but yeah you don't get another chance. Also you can't make the...

    Thoughts on this build?

    Check the motherboards maufacturer site, theyll have a qvl list of approved ram. Flare X, Sniper X and Trident Z are good on all the X470 boards from what I've seen.

    Thoughts on this build?

    Not bad, but you can get more GPU and less CPU for better gaming performance. Check out some builds I put together here: 11 Builds to fit your budget - I just did the $1750 one but with the 2600x instead of 2700x. Generally the NVMe drives are a premium and waste of budget unless you're...
