    Few pics of my pc and battlestation rebuild, and the helpers. The fur adds 10 fps The cheap plastic stand on the LG to the left is leaning, have to find some stronger tape or an anchor type solution to get it flush with the center monitor. Also, kind of tired of Corsair. Maybe bad luck, but...

    Finally getting around to rebuilding my machine tonight. One of my favorite things to doIt's been a couple of years since I've had the pleasure. Kind of a sucker for Lian Li, found a quirky mATX cube on sale and grabbed it for this refresh. A little nerd porn of the new stuff going in (that...

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    AMBUSH! It was a good super bowel. Plenty of secondary Colts fans in those days in New Orleans, because of PeyPey and Jim Mora, first coach to ever field a competent Saints team.

    The MSI Gaming 5 has a 'Killer' LAN instead of an Intel. That makes me nervous. Might not be a big deal, something to note though.

    I would say nothing earth shattering. The GTX 980 ti is coming in a month, it might cause the gtx 980 to drop some in price, but it won't be a huge amount. And gtx 970s will be holding steady I bet. I know AMD has an imminent release as well, but again I don't think it will have a huge affect on...

    I set up a couple of Netgear ReadyNAS units a few years ago. They are totally idiot proof and humming along with no problems still. Just slap some hard drives in and off it goes, formats them, builds the RAID, includes all relevant software etc. Easy.

    <3 EVGA. Had a PSU blow up my rig a few years ago, fried 2 gtx 470s and 2 OCZ SSD. They replaced them without issue, excellent experience. For the OCZ drives as well.

    AVS Thread

    My 2 cents on 'normal'/notrich AV- 1. Shop Monoprice or Amazon for cables. Do not spend a dime on 'premium' cable/wire. 100% waste of money. 2. Subwoofer is important. Good subs can be expensive. There is a large difference between a dull thud in a wooden box, and a real subwoofer. My subs...

    Depression

    I feel like I need to share this with you. Sam Harris talking about consciousness, and what it means to be fulfilled in the present, among other things. I, like some of you, am depressive and have been most of my life. The reasons aren't really important. Just saying I share with many of you a...

    Casual Rerolled WoW guild - Hyjal Horde

    I got the last one I think. Ran ZG an hour before patch that removed it, tiger dropped. My luckiest mmo moment ever I haven't played DK too much since LK, but I just rolled one on Hyjal and ran a bg. Feels basically like I remember it, sans heart strike. Blood now uses death coil as it's rune...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The best thing about this car is how it seems to piss off morons like you. Why wouldn't I talk about tuning my beetle? It's tuned. She will be stage 2+ by next summer. I'll post an update and you can cry about that too.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Thanks! I get compliments and inquiries about it all the time believe it or not. Have never driven a car that garnered attention like this one. From old black dudes to rednecks in lifted trucks to the girls at the front desk of my hotel who were excited to valet it, and a half dozen other...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    '13 turbo Beetle 'Fender Edition' with a Revo stage 1 tune (now at 240-250 hp/280-290 ft-lbs tq). Wasn't looking specifically for the special edition model, it just happened to be one of the few manuals on sale in my state and was the best deal I could get, by far. Springs to kill that wheel...

    Sean Payton now following Steve Smith on twitter. Probably nothing. Probably... edit: this didn't just happen, I guess he's been following him. So 99% sure it's nothing.

    NFL 2014 Off-Season Thread

    I have a feeling this was a favor to Sproles. We probably could've sent him to some dumpster fire team for a higher pick. I know the Redskins were seriously inquiring about him as well, among other teams. Not sure how much higher than a 5th we could expect though for a 30 year old RB who...

    lol it's Vinen, he's just a WNF (white noise faggot), not worth responding to. Besides, he only understood half the equation. BEHOLD. THE RESURRECTION OF THE AXIS.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Just hit 90 on my second warlock. I will have a green dreadsteed, oh yes I will. The new AV is pretty fun. Seems a lot more violent, towers burn quicker. I guess defending Bal and Galv is a thing that works again.

    Koan Sound. This is a more subdued song by them, but maybe my favorite. A lot of their stuff has this almost light jazz/funk/electronic thing going on. Interesting band.

    Here's something for you car guys to laugh at on a Friday! Bought a new Beetle. It's a 2013, got an insane deal from a dealer trying to get it moved. $7k off msrp. I don't know what it is about Beetles. I didn't care either way until I drove my girlfriend's a long time ago. It was decent...

    Huge clusterfuck in Chapel Hill today. Duke and NC State were smart enough to cancel classes, UNC was not. They didn't send people home until the snow started falling. It was mayhem, cars in ditches, sat at an intersection for 30 minutes. My front yard a little while ago. Wife and doge...

    I'm not doing anything specific for my tv personally. Just lived on the avsforums plasma subforum for a while and absorbed what I could. Just doing a general no black bars no logos for a long time deal. And contrast turned down. I don't think this has any effect on anything really, outside of...
