how many more fps do you get from a new stove?

unborn epoch
#

perhaps she wants to see that wombraider some more

rose eagle
#

She gets like 60% faster heating performance

unborn epoch
#

I don't know man.

rose eagle
#

Cuts her wait time by half during preheat

#

I didn't even get a 50% boost

unborn epoch
#

did you try flowers

#

pls not too expensive, u need a new case

rose eagle
#

They case thing will require some finesse for sure

#

Nothing is hot, this case may be the best thing ever lol

#

They don't make stuff like they used to πŸ˜‰

molten bramble
#

I picked up that Thermaltake Core P3 TG open-frame, temps went WAY down combined with the Cooler Master Masterliquid 120.

#

And I can mount this sucker on the wall. πŸ˜„

rose eagle
#

Best find some serious studs but why the hell lol

prime raptor
#

is serious stud

molten bramble
#

@rose eagle Plan to mount it in the living room beneath the upper cabinetry to post directly to the television and move it out of the guest room. πŸ˜„

#

@rose eagle Going to install a HD60 Pro into it to grab video even when I am not streaming, that way I can edit through a workflow instead of relying on Twitch/Youtube to do it.

#

Got a lot of plans for this year.

#

πŸ˜‰

rose eagle
#

that sounds like a very niche reason haha

#

projects,i wish i had some but i have a kid

molten bramble
#

@rose eagle LOL, I have two, but you've gotta find your outlet somewhere.

rose eagle
#

tell my wife that

#

i did buy a 65" Samsung tv and about $3000 worth of audio equip to have a better movie watching experience

#

but nothing "fun" to keep me busy

prime raptor
#

You should get your mid-life crisis mobile

#

Maybe a nice 911

#

Actually, not a 911

#

Get an aston martin

molten bramble
#

Yeah, buy a Ford.

prime raptor
#

Hmm?

#

Aston is an independent company these days.

#

Actually had their IPO not long ago.

molten bramble
#

"independent" πŸ˜„ we know where they got their know-how from, and it sure wasn't ye ole Brittania

prime raptor
#

I mean, I'd rather drive an aston then a ford

#

So they did something right

#

Huh ford hasn't had owned aston since 2007

molten bramble
#

I'd want a car that's made to drive, not made to flash. That's the 911 (with the exception of the racing-type Astons--seen them do well at Sebring 12-hrs ALMS). πŸ˜‰

prime raptor
#

I want a car that's made to drive, not made to race

molten bramble
#

Yeah, pretty much after the ball dropped on the economy.

prime raptor
#

hence why I want a big boat

molten bramble
#

Ford started to off-load ailing brands.

prime raptor
#

Like a mercedes s-class coupe

molten bramble
#

All the big-three did.

prime raptor
#

Still pissy about GM and Pontiac

molten bramble
#

Same.

prime raptor
#

And Saturn

#

I've owned 2 saturns

#

both were satisfactory

molten bramble
#

Mercedes are pretty cool, but unless it's an AMG, they're getting more plastic-ish and they're notoriously unreliable... about as bad as old Lancia or Alfa Romeo.

#

Gorgeous designs all of them, horrible sustainment cost.

prime raptor
#

I mean, you don't buy a German car these days

#

You lease them

#

To unreliable to own

#

VW is an exception to this, and Audi to an extant as well

molten bramble
#

I've owned four Germans, three Audis and a VW. Never had an issue with them with the exception of coil packs and one TT had a transmission issue.

prime raptor
#

Though I wouldn't want to own a older one of either much past warranty period

molten bramble
#

Toyota, specifically Lexus, has my money now though.

prime raptor
#

I wouldn't mind having a lexus

#

Their nice cars

molten bramble
#

I picked up an RC F a couple of years ago on trade from an IS 250 (70K miles and still got $14.5K for it) and it's been a great car.

#

I have a Mini Cooper S for running around town as well, but the RC F is what I stretch legs with on the road.

prime raptor
#

I want a 90's lexus real bad. One of the ones with the 1jz/2jz in them

molten bramble
#

You can get them relatively cheap these days.

prime raptor
#

I know

molten bramble
#

Pretty good condition, but high mileage.

prime raptor
#

I almost picked one up but passed on it to do...something

#

I forget what

#

I mean I'd be completely rebuilding the engine/trans so that wouldn't be a problem

#

haven't found any others on the old craigslist, though

molten bramble
#

Yeah, hard pickings there now that they shut down some sections of the site that drew a lot of the darker side of the Internet, LOL.

prime raptor
#

You know I'm pissed I missed out on that

#

Still plenty of other cool stuff on there I need to not buy

worn charm
#

anyone ever had an issue on BF4 where it behaves as if you're constantly holding down left click?

#

menus/other games/windows works just fine

#

just replace my monitor

sharp gorge
#

@worn charm Just random button lags like ''w/s/left click/right click , but always stops with click of the ''issued'' button

left raven
#

is there any tech expert here?

#

tbh i'm experienced with tech, but even i didn't manage to solve my problem myself

#

(general, not just battlefield)

#

any help is appreciatedπŸ˜‰

forest token
#

ask and you may receive, but not from me because I am busy working on a speech about video games and I should be sleeping

left raven
#

ok

#

my keyboard (bulit-in my laptop) sometimes doesn't work after boot. if i connect an external keyboard while it doesn't work, both of them immediately start working

worn charm
#

@sharp gorge unbinding all my infantry joystick binds did it but I don't have a controller plugged in so it's strange

pastel lily
#

@left raven lets start with the OS, does it work if you use other OS other than the ones that is installed? And what OS are you using

left raven
#

windows 10

unborn epoch

left raven
#

lol

lofty light
#

What laptop do you have?

left raven
#

asus ultrabook a56c

rose eagle
#

format

left raven
#

why

#

you aren't helping

rose eagle
#

because that problem is horrific

#

if i were at a user's machine at work i would completely pull it from production and give them a new machine

#

but since it's yours you're limited , took me 1 hour total to format my pc the other day and get all software reinstalled

#

the time to troubleshoot the issue probably takes longer

#

i dont see any drivers for that laptop that you could try to reinstall

left raven
#

i tried to

rose eagle
#

here's something to try next time it happens, right click Start and go to device manager (its one of the options) and go to keyboards and see if you can scan for hardware changes or see if there's any ! by the devices etc

#

or maybe force remove it and re-detect

left raven
#

i deleted the driver already, same issue

#

probably not up to the driver at all

rose eagle
#

ok so you removed the device entirely from dev manager

left raven
#

yes

rose eagle
#

yea i mean at that point, sounds fkd

#

;P

left raven
#

damn windows 10

rose eagle
#

is this after a new win 10 update?

left raven
#

what's the update called?

#

i don't know i can't turn them off, so im fked

rose eagle
#

one just came out the last week or so, has it been happening for longer than that?

left raven
#

yes but could be updates...

#

i want to install windows 7...

rose eagle
#

its end of life is in like 1 yr

left raven
#

i know

#

but windows 10 is extreme trash

#

i miss the good old days

#

windows xp

rose eagle
#

98se > *

#

if you reformat you can do a 100% clean install of win10 with the latest version

#

feels good to do anyway

#

with Origin and Steam.. games just hook back up zero issues

#

i made a list of sw i needed to re-download, took no time at all

#

but as always, make sure you dont lose anything out of my documents or desktop or elsewhere ;D

left raven
#

but i don't use origin and steam πŸ˜†

#

i don't want to reformat though

#

because i would have windows 10 again

rose eagle
#

ahhhh super good deal on Fractal Design Mesh C today on Amazonnnnn

#

damnitttttttt

#

must.. justify.. to.. wife

#

but i also need a new psu to go to all this trouble x_x.. buying without would require a complete tear down again once i get a new PSU in December

storm osprey
#

do it do it do it

rose eagle
#

im talking to best buy right now to get a psu since i have $100 in points

#

having to price match

#

EVGA G3 850 is on sale for $100, pretty great deal

#

dont need 850 but its same damn price as 750 so

storm osprey
#

lol yea thats why i got an 850w as well, and you never know if you could use it, might as well as be safe

prime jasper
#

do you think pc gaming is becoming more expensive

#

im struggling with a gtx 1050 and i5 7400 to play bf1 on anything hgiher than low

#

and im worried how i will cope with bf5

storm osprey
#

i mean, 1050 is not a great graphics card

prime jasper
#

does it get better

#

as the numbers go up

storm osprey
#

yes

prime jasper
#

what do you have

storm osprey
#

1080

prime jasper
#

it just feels like the graphics r getting

#

more more

#

but tech has to get expensive with it

storm osprey
#

1050<1050ti<1060 3gb<10606gb< 1070<1070 ti< 1080<1080 ti

prime jasper
#

jesus

#

is a gtx 1070

#

good

storm osprey
#

oh yea

prime jasper
#

why are they so expensive

storm osprey
#

1060 6gb is basically the perfect 1080p gpu, 1070 starts getting into 1440p territory

prime jasper
#

oh ok

#

so if i have a 1080p monitor their is no reason to go higher

storm osprey
#

nvidia basically doesnt have any competition, so they can kinda do what they want

#

i mean, my friends use 1080p 144hz monitors and they have 1070s

balmy granite
#

some one knnow how i can fix the dx device removed error from bf1?

prime jasper
#

1060 is stil like

#

200-300 quid

rose eagle
#

1050<1050ti<1060 3gb<10606gb< 1070<1070 ti< 1080<2070<1080 ti<2080<2080Ti πŸ˜„

balmy granite
#

some one knnow how i can fix the dx device removed error from bf1?

rose eagle
#

you're on my screen twice

storm osprey
#

@balmy granite try doing a clean install of your gpu drivers

prime jasper
#

google it

rose eagle
#

google > waiting on humans

storm osprey
#

@prime jasper yea prices are not cheap, but imo worth it.

balmy granite
#

everything i do not work,i already reset my computer 3 times

rose eagle
#

we just discuss fun tech here, not tech support πŸ˜„

storm osprey
#

dont reset, download and clean install gpu drivers

rose eagle
#

reformat

storm osprey
#

i assume dx is direct x which should be gpu

rose eagle
#

@unborn epoch cmon i need backup

prime jasper
#

do you think i will be able to run bf5 with my 1050

#

playable

rose eagle
#

non Ti?

storm osprey
#

i wouldnt put much faith in it

rose eagle
#

yea it wont be very stable

storm osprey
#

you might get like 50 fps on low settings

prime jasper
#

thats good enough for me

#

very playable

storm osprey
#

bf1 with your set up is showing 50-70 fps

prime jasper
#

i play bf1 with no problems

storm osprey
#

so thats not as bad as i thought it would be. at the beginning of bfv you probably wont get that good of fps but they will optimize

prime jasper
#

i just put mesh quality on high and the game still looks great

#

and t-aa

storm osprey
#

imo i put everything low or off except textures

prime jasper
#

do you play bf1 or bf4

#

what u prefer

#

i never played bf4 but i hate bf1 right now it fels like an arcade game

storm osprey
#

i played both, dont play any right now

#

if i have to say i prefer bf4, but its been years since i played

#

bf1 imo is a clusterfuck

prime jasper
#

they put it on sale

#

for less than the older game

#

and made all dlc's free

#

literally 4 pounds to get the whole game

storm osprey
#

yea thats why i bought bf1

#

glad i only paid 10 dollars for everything (at the time the dlc wasnt free)

prime jasper
#

ya same i paid 9 pounds

storm osprey
#

what resolution and what size monitor are you using?

prime jasper
#

how do i check lol

#

oh uhh

#

1920 x 1080

#

i dont know the size

storm osprey
#

if youre 24" i would turn off anti aliasing, thats super taxing on fps

#

27" 1080p is pretty pixelated so i would use AA

unborn epoch
#

ya

#

if you have problems with your pc and it took you already 15 minutes to find thep roblem

#

format

storm osprey
#

turtle face!

unborn epoch
#

yoYoyYoyOyoO

storm osprey
#

yo digggity

#

where are you from again?

rose eagle
#

welp, the deed is done... Fractal Design - Meshify C White incoming along with EVGA G3 850

#

i just moved all my movies to an external so i wont even need my 1tb drive or bays

#

just 2 SSDs mounted

#

modular power supply should hopefully remove excess cables dangling everywhere

storm osprey
#

niiiiice

#

tell me how you like it

rose eagle
#

i mean, it's like having a tube tv and moving to a 4k most likely

#

anything will look good? πŸ˜„

storm osprey
#

idk what case you had, i just know it had those purple bay locks or whatever they are called

rose eagle
#

this old case will be promptly thrown in my trash bin, it's not even worth keeping to build another PC in

#

oh lol havent been following eh?

#

my case is full ATX from circa 2000 ;P

#

all metal

#

with 15 yr old dust in it

prime jasper
#

is colour format (RGB) the same as

#

dispaly type

#

(LED)

#

or are they two dfferent things

storm osprey
#

rgb means red, green, blue. being the "primary colors" you can theoretically recreate any color. so if something says its rgb it means you can change the color to anything you want

#

led is the technology use to create the lights

prime jasper
#

ok thnaks

#

oh you know about the 24 inch dont use AA

#

i can tell a big difference by eye

#

but is it worth having off

storm osprey
#

yea you will be able to tell a difference

prime jasper
#

i check now about the fps difference

storm osprey
#

its smoothing edges, but i personally like sharper edges, and on a 1080p 24" monitor you shouldnt be getting any images that are THAT pixelated

prime jasper
#

its 23.6 does that matter

storm osprey
#

nopes

#

hardly any monitor or screen is truly the size it says it is

rose eagle
#

thats what she said

storm osprey
#

exactly

prime jasper
#

what about fxaa medium

storm osprey
#

i personally try to not use AA at all if i can help it

#

just smooths/blends pixels to make the image less sharp

#

at the cost of fps

prime jasper
#

it makes it look hairy

storm osprey
#

if jaggies REALLY both you then sure, go ahead and use it

#

i just try to have it off when i can

prime jasper
#

dude

#

is it normal

#

im in the uk

#

and i literally have never had a game

#

where ther ei sno mesage on the right

#

its always like

#

latency

#

ping

#

or some shit

#

but on every other game

#

i have zero problems

#

and i thought it would be due to so many players but on fortnite im fine also

storm osprey
#

so youre saying in game you always have the message saying you have high ping?

#

just depends the servers you are connecting to

prime jasper
#

when i press tab it says im fine

#

but in game and on the right i can feel it

storm osprey
#

if i connect to euro servers i get ping of 160+, if i get an american server im around 30-50

prime jasper
#

also what is latency?

#

nvm il google it

storm osprey
#

yea idk if i know how to explain it

prime jasper
#

the time it takes

storm osprey
#

sending and receiving packets of data is taking too long?

prime jasper
#

to go from ur side to the other

storm osprey
#

try connecting to servers in your region, youre probably getting connected to american servers

prime jasper
#

aight

#

man im really looking forward to bf5

storm osprey
#

bfv beta was very good

prime jasper
#

thanks for the general help

#

you a good guy

storm osprey
#

lol thanks

#

and no problems

rose eagle
#

i am now that my 2070 is runnin! πŸ˜„

#

here's some weird things... Bfront 2 ran worse on my 970 than BF1 which makes sense, but runs better than BF1 on my 2070

#

so i have renewed faith in the 2070 to run V on the newer frostbite

rustic hinge
#

Well it’s gonna run it easily lol

rose eagle
#

not really, im in 1440p

#

and bfront 2 is now running trash

rustic hinge
#

I am too

#

With a 1080

rose eagle
#

i just got 94 fps avg in a map

#

47 1% time, absolute garbage

#

same map, 81 low, 135 avg now

#

im just running 30s benchmarks.. i wonder if you have to just let everything load for a full minute first to get into texture memory.. makes no sense

#

94 vs 135 average fps on same card same map is extreme

rustic hinge
#

Battlefront 2?

rose eagle
#

yea

#

1% low as 94fps is 100% where i want to be

rustic hinge
#

Oh

#

Nice

rose eagle
#

video card has been physically removed from the system error, fun

#

i mean i havent played in over a year so now i dont know if these problems are due to 2070 or not

#

or if its my tiny overclock or just infant drivers

rose eagle
#

is bf1 horribly unoptimized?

#

feel like bfront 2 runs incredibly better

#

@storm osprey any suggestions for fans? it "can" take 1 120mm bot, 3x120 or 2x140 front, 2x 140 top, 1x 120 back

lament thistle
#

Enermax and Corsair

#

And you definitely can't go wrong with noctua

storm osprey
#

eww enermax?

#

i mean, they are decent, but idk, they always seemed cut rate to me

lament thistle
#

Yeah they're new ones are actually pretty good

storm osprey
#

@rose eagle depends budget and what you want

rose eagle
#

actually i more meant IF and hwo big

#

like 3x 120 OR 2x 140 front

#

i dont see a point in top fans, bottom could help but why suck air out if you're already blowing it up

#

eject the heat farther!! πŸ˜„

#

its already leaving the damn case

storm osprey
#

oh, i personally like how 3 120's look in the front

rose eagle
#

this is a family home so budget friendly but quiet

storm osprey
#

but i can see 2 140's looking nice as well

rose eagle
#

not going to be glowing lights flashing everywhere

#

my kid would attack it

storm osprey
#

if you are going for bang for buck id get 2 140s

rose eagle
#

i mean it damn well better perform better than my full tower case from hell πŸ˜„

storm osprey
#

you want at least 1 exhaust fan though, just to take out the hot air

#

pulls it away from components

#

more fans pulling in cold air so you have positive pressure

#

will also help with dust

#

3 fans is optimal, each fan added after 3 fans only decreases temps by 1 degree

#

but adding fans do decrease the noise since each individual fan has to work less to move the same amount of air

#

BUT if youre gpus are anything like mine, the gpu is usually louder than anything else in my build

#

i use cougar fans, they are usually on sale and have a good airflow to noise ratio especially for the price

rustic hinge
#

BF1 is pretty well optimized

rose eagle
#

the fact this case only has 1 rear slot is a bit eh

#

even my current has 2

#

"but adding fans do decrease the noise since each individual fan has to work less to move the same amount of air"

#

assuming you have something monitoring temps...?

storm osprey
#

i use hw monitor

#

but i have not done this testing myself, mostly watching videos

#

and i really doubt adding fans will decrease noise at a noticeable degree, but it does measure less

rose eagle
#

mobo temps?

#

or just monitor cpu tempo

#

i guess there could be an ambient probe in some cases

storm osprey
#

hw monitor measures temps for mob, cpu, hdd, and gpu

rose eagle
#

that make fans spin up or down

#

$$$

#

thats what i was referring to, somethign that throttles fan speeds til needed like a gpu

storm osprey
#

yea there are PWM (pulse width modulation) fans that change according to temp

#

they connect to your mobo 4 pin fan headers

#

4 pin is for pwm

#

you can buy 3 pin fans and they just push the same amount of air no matter what

rose eagle
#

sounds like i just need to get two 140mm fans for front, it comes with 2 120s

#

so i can put one in the back and one at bottom, then the 2 140s in front

#

sounds solid to start with

storm osprey
#

one at the bottom?

rose eagle
#

shrug, better than top pulling?

storm osprey
#

unless that case is different than mine, i dont think theres a spot for fans on the bottom

rose eagle
#

that what you got?

storm osprey
#

im almost certain they are saying 120 fan at bottom for the psu

#

ok nvm i see

#

i looked up a picture

#

thats where the HDD bay will go, so if you take that out you can put a fan there

rose eagle
#

nice, yea i wont have one

#

i think this says i can mount 3 SSDs on the back

storm osprey
#

but its kinda useless since you have a psu shroud

#

yea theres a mounting bracket right behind the cpu

rose eagle
#

i use a cd rom sometimes but i guess i can just hook it up ghetto when required πŸ˜„

#

oof $28 for Corsair 140mm white LEDs

#

be cool to have just plain white in the front of that dark mesh

storm osprey
#

i would get 2 pwm fans for the front, to regulate temperatures / noise

rose eagle
#

i guess i should see what my mobo supports

storm osprey
#

yea, imo i would fill as much pwm slots as your mb supports

unborn epoch
#

just make sure you format

rose eagle
#

lol

#

new case and psu def a reformat!

#

i mean, i do have that driver problem possibility upgrading to a 2070 πŸ˜‰

#

are there no 9700k BF1 benchmarks out yet from legit sites?

unborn epoch
#

oh you bought a new mousepad?

#

format

rose eagle
#

well that one is obvious

#

speaking.. this mousepad is also from ~2000

#

has tech come anywhere on them? =/

storm osprey
#

one day, my stuff will be old

#

i mean, im sure new pads technically track better but idk if anyone would be able to tell a difference

rose eagle
#

mine is a soft material

unborn epoch
#

just put cloth mousepads in the washer from time to time

rose eagle
#

yea this has like, cracks in the material kinda worn

storm osprey
#

i body wash my pad

rose eagle
#

and some black specs

storm osprey
#

works best so far without damaging it

rose eagle
#

whats up with those full width ones under a keyboard

storm osprey
#

i have two

#

one for work one for home

rose eagle
#

just nice never having to adjust it? lol

wet notch
#

i have a deskpad, and ontop of it a normal steelseries one

rose eagle
#

O_o

wet notch
#

deskpad is fine for normal windows stuff, but its kind of worn out now, so its soft and feels good against my hands

#

but i use steelseries for gaming

storm osprey
#

i just like big mouse pads, and they look cool

rose eagle
#

the massive corsair textured

#

sounds like a good christmas present

wet notch
#

its nice to never have to adjust mousepad or bother about where your mouse is

rose eagle
#

ah man there is sexy white corsair ram

#

Hello BF community, I just wanted to know where I could get a second opinion about which GPU to buy for my current system. Are there any forums or places where I could get some opinions on this matter? Thanks

unborn epoch
#

what resolution

#

what system

#

make sure you format

graceful pond
#

is this a place to mention such things? Sorry to sound like a complete noob

prime jasper
#

yeah

#

everything to do with tech

snow chasm
#

What could I achieve with a GTX 1060?

#

BF1

#

Considering to upgrade

rustic hinge
#

Framerate wise? When I had my old 1060, I got anywhere from 75-105 really, depending on what’s going on (Ultra settings of course)

#

That was with a 5820k

#

1060 can get well over 60fps at 1080p

snow chasm
#

I have an i3-7100

#

With gtx 1050ti

#

I get around 30 fps 64player

#

High setting

#

1080p

rustic hinge
#

A 1060 6GB would do much better

So I want to buy a new GPU after new years so that I can get the best deal possible and I'd like to get any recommendations on which GPU I should get. The CPU I have is the Ryzen 1600x (watercooled) with 16GB RAM at 2400Mhz. (can OC to 3200ish) and I play at 1080p 144hz.

snow chasm
#

Is my cpu fine tho

storm osprey
#

i3 is not recommended for bf

#

imo you want 4c8t or 6c minimum

#

1060 6gb for 1080p is the sweet spot

#

@graceful pond if you want to push 144hz i recommend a 1070

graceful pond
#

@storm osprey I've looked into it for a couple of months and the 1070ti seems like a fair GPU for my current system but I'm just worried if it can handle newer games in the near future

storm osprey
#

at 1080p the 1070ti is a VERY capable card

#

i use a 1080 (barely better than 1070ti) and i use it for 1440p gaming

rustic hinge
#

Same here

storm osprey
#

i dont use ultra settings, but i get at least 100 fps in most games

prime jasper
#

ultra is a waste tbh

storm osprey
#

^

rustic hinge
#

Yeah

prime jasper
#

i dont noticed the difference

storm osprey
#

id rather have frames

graceful pond
#

I was looking into upgrading to 1440p but its just a bit too costly the monitors and to pick either a new gpu or a monitor im gonna pick gpu

prime jasper
#

between the second highest setting in a game and the highest

rustic hinge
#

High is basically identical

prime jasper
#

yeah

#

maybe some differences

storm osprey
#

i low everything but textures and draw distance

prime jasper
#

i keep particles on

#

i love me some particles

graceful pond
#

are you allowed to send links in this?

storm osprey
#

ye

#

at least ive seen links without and hassle on it

winged tapir

storm osprey
#

prices on 10xx series of cards will probably only go up from here except for a few sales

#

since rtx cards are out

#

but this isnt a normal gpu cycle so theres no say for sure

graceful pond
#

wouldnt they be cheaper due to the new cards being released?

storm osprey
#

depends on supply and demand

#

1080 cards were cheaper a few months ago than they are now

#

the cheapest i saw a 1080 was 400$

#

the cheapest now is 430 for one i wouldnt recommend

graceful pond
#

Alright well thanks, I'm most likely going to grab the 1070ti after new years

rose eagle
#

people arent willing to jump to rtx so the 10xx will prob remain a friggin premium til stock is gone lol

#

my cpu temps are bouncing all over 69-75c every second, dont remember the sensor being that inaccurate before

#

during an OCCT burn the hell out of it test

prime jasper
#

Yeah, I have a 1070ti, I was so hyped for the 20XX series, I was going to get a 2070ti, but after seeing benchmarks & how its turned out, I'll be sticking with my 1070ti until the next series, like a lot of folks

#

@graceful pond From what I see, the prices have gone down a tiny bit, but nothing drastic, & it seems the majority of people are holding onto their 10XX cards as well, due to how things turned out with RTX

#

Wouldn't even be surprised if they started to rise again

vapid pebble
#

When I grabbed my 1080ti, I got it for 660 shipped, which was like 150 or so cheaper than I had seen it for many months. About a week after that, it was next to impossible to find one in stock, or for anything less than 800

storm osprey
#

prices are so volatile its insane

rose eagle
#

yea it sucks that $650 was a "steal" and wishing i had gotten one

#

or a 1080 for $400

vapid pebble
#

Yeah, 660 is hardly what Id call cheap trust me, but considering how bad it was a few months ago, it seems like dirty cheap somehow. I got worried about the supply drying up and prices going back up so I said might as well bite the bullet now.

prime jasper
#

I paid $480 for my 1070ti

#

Now idk how much they are.. $380?

storm osprey
#

my friend who i did a build for got a 1070ti for 460, with a evga psu

prime jasper
#

Damn wtf, cheapest I see is $410, & a lot of places are still selling really high

#

Oh nvm

#

Thats sold out

storm osprey
#

@plain vessel i had seen a 1080 for 400 either through newegg deal or massdrop

#

i remember pcpartpicker wasnt showing the promotion so it had to be one of those two

prime jasper
#

Cheapest is a zotac for $420, for a 1070ti that I see, and Zotac is kinda.. Ehh, can't find anything on them

storm osprey
#

jesus christ

#

i got my 1080 for 550

prime jasper
#

I only have 1080p, so I don't think a 1080ti would exactly do too much for me

#

144

#

I 100% need more RAM

#

I misordered my RAM by bookmarking the wrong page on Neweg.. Lul

#

Yeah, I was on VRChat last night, & went to open Chrome, & I got a message about being out of memory, lol

#

Yes

#

I don't plan on getting 32GBs

storm osprey
#

16gb is fine, unles you are opening everything in the world you shouldnt run into problems

prime jasper
#

I think so, if I recall, some guy in another server was doing 3x4 with a 2600, perhaps he was lying though, or perhaps I'm not remembering correctly

rose eagle
#

@plain vessel there was a one month

#

Window 1080 and ti were slashed in prices

#

Bhphoto had crazy deals but then RTX came out and everything shot back up lol

prime jasper
#

Black Friday will probably see $350 1070tis and $400 1080s, maybe even cheaper

rose eagle
#

I have an overpriced to shit 2070

#

Don't bet on there being good Black Friday deals

prime jasper
#

I wouldn't even trade my 1070ti right now on the spot for a 2070 free of charge

rose eagle
#

10xx stock drying up and competitively priced against 20xx

#

It's the same basically

prime jasper
#

1070ti and 1080 are practically the same on base clocks

rose eagle
#

And don't count on 2070 being good enough to do rtx but alas I own one anyway

#

Cause I wasn't going to pay $500 for a 1080

prime jasper
#

Or you could blow a lot of money & get the 2080ti

rose eagle
#

That's not approved by the wife

storm osprey
#

if you can, i recommend everyone wait for ryzen 7nm cpus to be announced

#

which is in a few months....

rose eagle
#

My bday is in March so they better deliver

#

I don't like the Creator and gaming mode bs though

molten bramble
#

Right now I am trying to find some DDR2 @ 1066Mhz (or possibly DDR3 @ 1333Mhz, but unknown as the specification page for the MB is a bit vague whether support exists).

rose eagle
#

What res?

prime jasper
#

I wonder how different that m.2 and the Samsung 860 Evo are

rose eagle
#

Insanely different but real world? Not so much

#

1440p you won't need as beefy a CPU

prime jasper
#

Hmm well, I got too much important shit I don't feel like migrating atm anyways, so I'll stick with my 860, plus I need more RAM & a new keyboard before that

rose eagle
#

970 Evo is fkin fast as hell, blows 860 away but the game engine can only work so fast

#

It doesn't help during play at all

storm osprey
#

i mean, look at it like this, for the average gaming consumer a ssd will load windows in roughly 20 seconds, if a ssd is x2 faster thats only 10 seconds, but youll pay up the ass for the x2 faster ssd

prime jasper
#

Also, only 750GB of storage? I already used that up, lol, at least get a HDD to store files in, etc.

rose eagle
#

I got a 250 for os and programs and 500 for games

#

I keep it clean ;)

prime jasper
#

Ahh, I have a 2TB HDD and a 500GB SSD

molten bramble
#

@storm osprey On the current build (4Ghz OC'd Q9650 w/ 8Gb/800Mhz dual-channel), I load W10 in about 20 seconds. πŸ˜„ That's an old machine doing work!

rose eagle
#

My Mobo doesn't support m.2 or I'd snag a 500 they're only $150

#

Price dropped

storm osprey
#

if m.2 is roughly same price, its not using m.2 tech, and imo m.2 speeds are not worth it for consumer grade stuff

prime jasper
#

I went to check the stored amount on my HDD, and it stopped trying after about 157GBs

#

I know theres over half a TB there though

#

idk it just shits itself when I try and see how much data is there

molten bramble
#

The Samsung 860 EVO SSD in the build opened up a new world of speed on the box for sure. I'm tempted to swap in two more for the storage drives as archive and scratch disks.

#

SSDs are so cheap right now, why not?

#

Then I'll take those two REDs and setup a third NAS in the flat.

storm osprey
#

i keep wanting to get more ssd's but prices keep dropping im just waiting

rose eagle
#

The 970 Evo is literally 350% faster than 860 but battlefield won't load 3.5x faster

#

Limited by to many other things

prime jasper
#

515GBs

#

And another 340GBs on my SSD

rose eagle
#

860 does like 400MB/s if a game engine ever needs that during run we're screwed

rose eagle
#

So was 9700/9900 basically a paper launch? Everywhere just has coming soon

lofty light
#

Sounds like it

unborn epoch
#

Pooperlunch

lofty light
#

Kinda like my 2080ti has been put on backorder twice now

unborn epoch
#

Nice

unborn epoch
#

Should I vlog my formatting adventures

rose eagle
#

those are still a thing?

#

my case goes to my right so i just realized how the hell am i gonna see the window since its on the right

#

it was gonna go horizontal with the front facing me but that wont work

unborn epoch
#

Refurniture the house is the only option

lofty light
#

I've got a really wide desk so mine is behind my monitors

rose eagle
#

ha.. nice, can adjust color of LED for 2070 based on temp

lofty light
#

Oh noice! My lighting kit does that but not the card

prime jasper
#

Just seen a Vega 56 with 400% power overheard

lofty light
#

Was that the GN one?

rose eagle
#

will it catch fire after 1 month of use? πŸ˜„

rose eagle
#

oof a local 1080ti just went on sale for $550 πŸ˜„

#

good ole facebook marketplace

rose eagle
#

1080s are grossly overpriced, 1080Ti seems to be lower

#

450 for a used 1080 is the dumbest thing ever

snow chasm
#

^

unborn epoch
#

i want to make a full custom waterloop for my gpu/cpu

#

my gpu gets a little noisy

#

7700k and 1080ti

#

in a h200i case

#

the 1080ti gets stupid loud yes

#

evga SC2 or some shit

#

twin fan

#

it's ok if I lower power consumption to 80% and change fancurve to only to up to 30%

#

it'll get 85c max

#

but i wont get full 1080ti power

#

it doesn't, but it OCs and gets hot and loud

#

also since i'm pushing games to 165

#

fps*

#

that'd be the best solution yeah

#

the h200i is only a mitx case

#

there's room for one 280rad i think

#

i have no idea, never built a watercooling loop

#

lul

#

hmm

#

EK has no block for the 1080ti sc2

#

oh well, i'll give full watercooling a try next build

#

it should be, it has 2x14cm intakes and 1x14cm outtake (cpu cooler)

#

waterblock would be way better though for the gpu

#

haha yeah

#

i can run cpu at 5ghz no problem

#

sits at 65~70c when playing BF1 depending on temperature outside

#

too bad the gpu is noisy ;c

#

ya im kind of anal about sound

#

i have another computer, which is smaller

#

but it gets noisy when gaming, for obvious reasons

#

i wanted my pc to be as small as possible and as silent

#

but my next build is going to care less about size and more about noise

#

sadly swapping out case/fans/cooling solution is costly

#

i dont have the blocks

#

the block alone will cost me that

#

unless im going to make some ghettoass cpublock + a way to cool VRM

lament thistle
#

Aio is the way to go if you can't afford custom

#

Imo

unborn epoch
#

i rather do it properly

#

aio is possible i guess just for the GPU

#

I have room in the font of my case, cpu doesn't need watercooling

lament thistle
#

Well yeah unless you buy one of those overpriced hybrid cards

unborn epoch
#

i'm in a weird position right now where i shouldn't

#

i bought a 1080ti for dirtcheap, can't really buy a 2080 or 1080ti hybrid now, makes no sense

#

ill deal with the noise, crank up the volume when gaming i guess

lament thistle
#

The 1080 will do you good for a while longer tbh

unborn epoch
#

oh sure

#

the 1080ti survives the 2000 and most likely the 3000 series

lament thistle
#

For sure

unborn epoch
#

raytracing isn't a thing, game development lacks in that regard anyway (sadly)

#

i want all games to be path/raytraced. Maybe in 10 years.

#

VR 240fps, that's the dream man.

#

hopefully i wont be old and rusty by that time

strong breach
#

Im not even personally interested in rtx

#

Much rather would save a buck and get 1080ti

unborn epoch
#

Proper raytracing is something to be very excited about. It's just too new

#

So if you are looking to buy a card and the possibility is there to snag a 1080ti for cheap. Go that route

#

AMD pls man the fucc up and start competing in the high end sector again pls

#

Or Intel I don't care.

#

imagine man, real time raytracing at a rate of 240 times per second on a resolution of 4K or something.

prime jasper
#

Dude heck no

#

All computers have intel

unborn epoch
#

the gpu market needs more competition

prime jasper
#

You does not need competition

unborn epoch
#

amd is doing very wel on the gpu end, intel does nothing on the dedicated gpu market, let them try

#

we DO need competition, what are you on about

#

AMD is slacking, why do you think nvidia's cards are so stinking expensive now

prime jasper
#

All computers have Intel without computers or laptop would not been in a great graphic look

unborn epoch
#

I don't understand what you mean. Can you please rephrase that?

prime jasper
#

Intel putz the graphics in first

#

Without Intel the graphics would look plain.

unborn epoch
#

You mean games?

#

Are you talking about intel's integrated graphics in their CPUs?

#

That does nothing for the high end market.

#

Or I'm not understanding you, in that case sorry.

lament thistle
#

Lol Intel and graphics

#

Their Integrated GPU is Garbage

unborn epoch
#

the pro series is good for what it's made for, but it's no where near good for anything intensive :p

prime jasper
#

Without Gpus there would not be good

#

GPU would never been Removed unless if they want too

unborn epoch
#

Of course. A dedicated chip has a lot more room for power instead of an integrated chip together with the CPU.

#

What I'm saying is. Intel should show up in the dedicated graphics market. They have the money to do so.

#

I'm not sure if it's worth investing from a business standpoint. But it would sure as hell be nice for us.

prime jasper
#

Because company wants πŸ’°

unborn epoch
#

The entertainment industry is huge and with hype around AI/machine learning there's lots to gain for many markets including the gaming industry.

prime jasper
#

Right.

unborn epoch
#

Nvidia should lose their monopoly position, either AMD comes back with a vengeance or Intel joins the party or better yet, both.

#

Same goes for the CPU market which AMD is luckily gaining some favors since Ryzen.

lament thistle
#

I'd take both any day

prime jasper
#

What's wrong with Nvidia.

unborn epoch
#

Nothing, Nvidia as a monopoly is wrong.

prime jasper
#

Oof

solemn tusk
#

Yeah, competition is always a good thing. Having a dominating force in a market is a bad idea

unborn epoch
#

Nvidia's current business practices are all due to lack of competition.

#

They can because they deliver the best.

lament thistle
#

Pretty much

#

AMD imo dominates the mid range market, no exceptions. Nvidia has the high end on lock down with no foreseeable future when that will change.

unborn epoch
#

Ya

#

but midrange is boring.

#

Of course it's a valuable market and definitely necessary but it should be used to fund progress.

#

which doesn't seem like the case now, unless there's a very hard limit of what's physically possible at he moment.

lament thistle
#

Money is what's limiting

#

They both could make some really good tech but they know people will always need bugmdget friendly stuff

#

And AMD is taking advantage of that

unborn epoch
#

ASML is doing cool stuff atm where they make circuits work with just light.

#

I don't know the fine details, but there are technologies in the works which allow us to jump many times over in terms of performance.

rose eagle
#

i mean.. minimum 1080p 144hz should be mainstream by now. I know my 1440p is more enthusiast but to require a 1080Ti to get 144fps in BF1 seems a bit extreme.

#

I dont like that a 1060 is considered "mid range"

#

or is it? it's bare bones bottom barrel to me, 60fps low for BFV is like "low budget"

lament thistle
#

A 1060 fits mid range 1080 60+ is standard still for some reason

rose eagle
#

I've never had a gpu go out of date so quickly as my 970

unborn epoch
#

that';s because you went to 1440p

rose eagle
#

back in the day buying the 970 "mid range" card meant you could play on high settings, not ultra but high

unborn epoch
#

1080p runs along just fine at 1080p

rose eagle
#

144fps?

lament thistle
#

144hz should be standard rn

rose eagle
#

should

unborn epoch
#

should be able to do 100+ on high

storm osprey
#

@unborn epoch are the fans loud or is it coil whine?

unborn epoch
#

fans are loud

#

it has coilwhine but not too bad

#

i've never been a fan of watercooling because i haven't heard a high quality pump yet

rose eagle
#

i mean i forked $550 for a 2070 EVGA XC which is a small factory OC and it does BF1 ultra 1440p 99fps avg, 61 on the low 1%

prime jasper
#

i like fans more than watercooling

#

i like the sound of fans whirring

rose eagle
#

this doesnt seem logical to me, the tech should be here to play 1440p ultra on a $500 card at 144fps

storm osprey
#

i personally dont want to eff with watercooling

prime jasper
#

^

unborn epoch
#

watercooling still needs fans

rose eagle
#

yea no thanks πŸ˜„

#

more.. if anything

#

some of those radiators have 6 fans

prime jasper
#

i feel like im going to kill something with my dumbness

#

if i use watercooling

lament thistle
#

Water-cooling is nice for aesthetics, that's why I use it

rose eagle
#

water cooling is for people who can afford to lose their entire rig

storm osprey
#

too much to worry about just to get it functional, let alone the gains imo are not worth the hassle/stress/risk

unborn epoch
#

watercooling has huge benifits

lament thistle
#

@rose eagle Not necessarily

rose eagle
#

actually.. Noctua 15H beats a ton of water cooling setups

unborn epoch
#

watercooling is able to directly remove heat from the components and let it dissipate in the heatsink far away from the hardware

rose eagle
#

you have to get not only a water cooling system but a good one to beat the noctua

unborn epoch
#

ya

#

this is CPU though

lament thistle
#

Eh noctuas ugly asf

storm osprey
#

AIO for cpu, and just keep gpu stock

rose eagle
#

but yea its mainly all about aesthetics

unborn epoch
#

ugly?

#

you mean the colorscheme?

lament thistle
#

Yeah

unborn epoch
#

they have chromax full black fans now

rose eagle
#

i hate the browns

prime jasper
#

i just dont trust myself with watercooling

rose eagle
#

fan needs to come right off

unborn epoch
prime jasper
#

id rather play safe

lament thistle
#

@unborn epoch looks like upgrading fans then lol

storm osprey
#

last i checked the noctua black fans were expensive as fuck

unborn epoch
#

check that devil

storm osprey
#

even more expensive than noctua in general

lament thistle
#

Yeah I saw it looks nice, huge as cooler

rose eagle
#

where's your motherboard?!?!?!

#

πŸ˜„

unborn epoch
#

in the near future noctua is even going to release black painted heatsinks

storm osprey
#

at least when i looked thats when they were announced

rose eagle
#

my 212 evo only has 1 fan

#

thats a fkin beast

storm osprey
#

lol, who needs to worry about cable management when you cover absolutely everything

unborn epoch
#

and yes, my cpu cooler is pretty much 85% the size of my motherboard

rose eagle
#

noctua 15h is bigger than my 212.. it wont fit in 011 Dynamic

unborn epoch
#

it's silly ;p

glossy cove
#

Having baby puke colored fans on your PC is a status symbol!

rose eagle
#

neither the 212 evo or noctua fit in a lian li 011

is that a h500 case?

unborn epoch

it is indeed a status symbol

rose eagle
#

@prime jasper i have that dilemma with LED lightbulbs... save elec but that heat you gain during winter has to count for something πŸ˜„

unborn epoch
#

way too expensive, the case looks cool i guess. Or at least unique

storm osprey
#

fuuuuck that

rose eagle
#

swap out all LED in winter for incandescent!

prime jasper
#

i was thinking of buying the case from my friend who had one, that then decided to build his own

#

it would be pretty cool to use

#

in my own build

storm osprey
#

the case is interesting, but i would hate the space it uses

prime jasper
#

mm

#

ill try experimenting

#

see where it could fit

storm osprey
#

you are getting the whole thing?

#

pre built?

prime jasper
#

nah

unborn epoch
#

i want to put an arduino in my case and connect ledstrips and matrix displays to it

#

and let it do funky stuff

prime jasper
#

its a waste

storm osprey
#

you are just getting the case?

prime jasper
#

from a friend ye

storm osprey
#

ah, i mean, sure i might try it just to see

prime jasper
#

mainly because it looks cool

storm osprey
#

i have the space for it, but idk

#

would be cool to have something so different

prime jasper
#

yeah

#

because i could build something better for 1000$ cheaper

#

waste of money

unborn epoch
#

you could use that $1000 to go for a premium case, water cooling, lightning effects etc

#

but it'll be your baby, your project

#

it's not something you plop together in a week

prime jasper
#

yeah

unborn epoch
#

lighting*

prime jasper

ill have a think

unborn epoch
#

lightning is dangerous

storm osprey

never know what i might want

rose eagle

i keep lightning in a bottle for special occasions

unborn epoch

#

or say fk u Asus and get the ASRock Z370 Extreme4

#

how much is that one?

#

i fkin love my ASRock Z77 Extreme4 for my ancient 3770k

storm osprey
#

ive only bought asus and msi boards

#

err and gigabyte

rose eagle
#

peasants

storm osprey
#

only boards ive had problems with is msi, but i seem to be minority

rose eagle
#

when it comes to GPU its EVGA or Asus for me

#

all boards have some lemons

storm osprey
#

gpus evga or msi for me

#

(even though every evga gpu i have had has had coil whine while nothing else has)

rose eagle
#

make sure you see how many m.2 drive bays

#

wave of the future πŸ˜„

#

2 would be sweet ass candy

storm osprey
#

m.2 overrated for 99% of consumers imo

rose eagle
#

no fkin drives, aesthetics!!!!!!!

#

and they're down to $150 for a 970 evo

#

500gb

#

so fkin cheap

storm osprey
#

yea and you can get sata 500gb for 80 bucks

#

and for consumers, you wont even be able to tell the differnce

rose eagle
#

sure, double

#

but it takes no cables!!

#

πŸ˜„

#

this was before i got my new case comin tho with rear mountable

#

ive never been able to rear mount anything

storm osprey
#

im about performance, and i would get sata over m.2 any day for the price difference

rose eagle
#

they only take it right in the bolted on holes

storm osprey
#

i got a budget and even if i hit the lottery it would be hard for me to justify m.2 over sata

rose eagle
#

oh cmon

#

if you got 1.6Billion from that recent lotto

#

that would be one fkin tricked to shit PC for life lol

#

i mean.. $5000 would basically buy you the most you'd ever need in a PC ever

storm osprey
#

im not about spending 2x more for 10% perf increase

rose eagle
#

its your PC!

#

and you have 1.6 bil?

storm osprey
#

it doesnt make sense to me

rose eagle
#

if anything i wouldnt even upgrade my house lol

#

but id drop 5 grand on my PC πŸ˜„

#

keep same cars

#

fk it, the 1.6 bil would just sit working for me

#

i mean fk man you'd earn more than 5k/mo off interest lol

#

cant take it with you

storm osprey
#

idk, im sure i would spend more than i would expect, but still, it doesnt add up to much

lament thistle
#

Lol

rose eagle
#

yea theres some bad ones

storm osprey
#

at work, cant read

#

(even though i spend 30% of my time on discord anyways)

rose eagle
#

i got 21 days of vaca to try to smash in before end of year

#

this is difficult lol

storm osprey
#

1 week on 1 week off

rose eagle
#

BF V woo woo!

#

haha im mainly just scheduling a ton of 4 day weekends

#

entire weeks off is harsh, got too much work

#

yea the m.2 for OS + programs for my development sounds awesome like you're doing and then an 860 for games

#

an engine can only load stuff so fast, i have never benchmarked BFV loading

#

or 1 rather, we know SSD >> 7200 for load times

#

but not sure if m.2 would be diminished returns

storm osprey
#

thatd be a beast gaming/streaming pc

unborn epoch
#

m2 doesn't require cables POGGERS

rose eagle
#

NZXT arent exactly known for their airflow are they

#

?

unborn epoch
#

not optimal, no

storm osprey
#

that specific cpu cooler is good though

#

probably not the best, but i havent heard complaints about it

#

beating similar corsair rads?

unborn epoch
#

9900k is beefy as hell

#

you doing other things than gaming?

#

isn't 9900k overkill?

#

it's your money of course

#

but if you are serious about streaming get a 2nd pc

languid acorn
#

Overkill is better than underkill

rose eagle
#

mmmm

unborn epoch
#

if you aren't, use gpu

#

i could be wrong though, 8c with HT is insane amounts of cores

#

if you can separate it properly it might work fine

#

i haven't experimented with streaming too much

#

all i know is that my 7700k doesn't like it, i notice clear delay in things when gaming. But the 7700k is ancient and a baby compared to that 9900k

storm osprey
#

true, if streaming is priority a dedicated build is ideal, if you need/want 1 build and want the best, theres the 9900k

winged tapir
#

well if you want to stream CPU eating games I guess a single PC setup is not the way to go

storm osprey
#

(i dont stream so idk the budget for a dedicated streaming machine)

winged tapir
#

Single PC streaming is not possible with AAA games if you want CPU encoding

#

or not decent results

unborn epoch
#

some games will work fine, but in shooters you will notice a delay

storm osprey
#

ryzen 2700x does fine, 9900x is good

winged tapir
#

I have an I7 7700 and I cant stream Games with CPU encoding with 1080p/60fps which is my way to stream

unborn epoch
#

remember, 9900k has double amount of cores/threads

#

so it's hard to compare the two

winged tapir
#

Well never tested it

storm osprey
#

yea 7700<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<9900k

#

at least for streaming

unborn epoch
#

this doesn't mean that windows does it all right by default

#

hence me saying, if you can force certain processes to certain cores it might work

#

you definitely don't want encoding and game running on the same core

#

im not watching 30 minutes of footage

#

all I can say; FPS doesn't mean shit.

storm osprey
#

solder is good, but theres better

unborn epoch
#

however I know GN covers stuff thoroughly

storm osprey
#

yea i watched that one

#

you can get better performance, but for most its not worth it, and really only an option for people that are obsessive with their cpu performance

#

but the new stim or whatever its called is definitely better than the previous method (forget what thats called entirely)

winged tapir
#

if you want to go for normal streaming with good settings I guess i9-9900k can be really enough

#

but for Dual things I would say AMD is the way you should go

#

if you are planning on getting DUAL Streaming system then Intel ❀

#

I stream with NVEC (GPU encoding) with very decent results

#

plus my games are running smooth most of the time

#

CPU i7-7700 and GPU is GTX 1070

strong breach
#

7k bitrate

winged tapir
#

i can't stream games like BF 1 with CPU encoding

#

@strong breach yep

#

60

#

I can demonstrate the power

#

Dont have anything to do

#

@strong breach BF3?

unborn epoch
#

tbh, your stream will look shit anyway because i ebvlieve only partners get decent reencoding

winged tapir
unborn epoch
#

also why 1080p? just stream 720p

#

like any normal streamer

#

are you partnered?

#

nice transition on that stream

#

teach me your ways

#

at 720p you can get better imagequality with same framerate

#

stream looks good though

#

yours?

#

link me it, im watching rephii atm

#

oh right

#

Snutten drops fps (not frames)

#

just noticeable fps

#

aight ill check it out

#

framerate drops seem to be gone

#

but do you actually play at 60fps?

#

alright

#

i gotta try streaming again sometime

#

ya i'll set it up tomorrow

#

you look like a mix between f0rest and friberg

#

you

#

πŸ˜„

#

haha good stuff

#

it's definitely watchable

#

im getting ea premiere and buying the game during the first month of release somewhere

#

november 9 here i come

#

lul get cucked

#

@winged tapir your stream seemed nice the way you had the transitions going

#

teach me your ways

#

is it just a video you are playing

winged tapir
#

made it with After Effects

rose eagle
#

my benchmarks are on par with other 1440p BF1 tests with 2070

#

which kinda makes me super sad, i really want to upgrade my 3770k πŸ˜„

storm osprey
#

wait panda, just wait

rose eagle
#

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

storm osprey
#

you dont neeeeed it

rose eagle
#

my rig will just depreciate!

storm osprey
#

you waaaant it

rose eagle
#

the only thing holding me back is i know both amd and intel cpu's next year will most likely be new boards, possibly even ram?

storm osprey
#

amd is supporting the am4 platform till 2020

rose eagle
#

i dont see how the new amd cpu's will destroy a 9700k tho

#

o well.. nothing amd has up is worth grabbing i dont think

storm osprey
#

thats one of their selling points, they plan on supporting shit unlike intel, they drop support basically for every new cpu
