Holy shit. lol

True. Still should do the RAM testing. No reason why the CPU should have an odd clockrate after that.

I always OC through bios and don't like in-OS software because when testing or things get unstable, it tends to really fuck things up. Is there not a way to go into BIOS and hard reset to defaults? Also, you need functional CPU and RAM to boot and dig around in BIOS. CPUs are fairly bulletproof...

New Chipshet info I shooped together from Wiki. Old Z87 (Haswell launch) and Z97: New Sunrise Point for Skylake (Z170):

I was really talking about the behemoths like Dell / Alienware and the like. It's been ages since I screwed around on the Cyberpower website, but I always looked at them as a middle of the road company that is basically taking parts and putting it together for you. An assembler service, if you...

Skylake is the next big generation. Haswell was from 2013 and Broadwell was just a die shrink of the same. Skylake gets you the next 2 years worth of tech. Plus there are some big leaps coming in the Sunrise Point chipset. (Tons more native USB3 ports, 20 PCIe 3.0 lanes, DDR4 support...

I do fully admit there is a point of diminishing returns and some manufacturers go way overboard in cost for aesthetic purposes. However, there are brands out there that throw a boat load of cash into R&D. "Exotic and untested crappy parts"? I find it extremely hard to believe DIY crowds are...

From your wording, it sounds like you purchased already? I would wait if at all possible. The next gen Intel CPUs (Skylake) paired with the next gen motherboard chipsets (100 Series / Sunrise Point) are due in September. That's right around the corner.

On paper, the two machines might look similar, but self-built you can get far superior brand name components. Instead of unknown oem generic RAM at 1600MHZ, I can put in quality branded (and faster / lower latency) modules. Power supplies are notoriously generic and questionable from pre-builts...

ISPs stiffling innovation and progress. Caps make streaming unusable now, yet we are trying to push 4K tech? Caps need to drop or be raised by an order of magnitude!

Such a nice HT room, why not get some quality speakers instead of a DIY mishmash? My HT setup: TV =Samsung 9000 Series Smart TV AV Receiver =9.2 A/V Receiver, Surround Sound | AVR-4311CI | Denon Fronts =Paradigm | Signature S8 | Overview Center =Paradigm | Signature C5 | Overview...

My last ex said the pill drove her batshit as well. She ended up going on Depo-Provera because it is a hell of a lot easier to manage and just as effective. (injection every 3 months) Not only are they horrible for the feels, but they are also one of the least effective methods of BC! Something...

Still way overspent. You can buy an Intel NUC for about half of that price. I use one as a Home Theater Kodi box and it is amazing. If he is truly only using it for internet and music it would still be a huge overkill. Amazon.com : Intel Next Unit of Computing Kit with Dual HDMI, Gigabit LAN...

God damn, that is bad! Just to make you feel worse, I am in the middle east in the land of the sand shitlords and I pay for 100Mb fiber but in reality end up with ~110Mb. (3rd world problems??)

Fuck you Mist! Clippy was cool. lol

That is interesting and something I never considered. Can you actually get PMI removed if a newer house appraisal tips you over 78%? What about the opposite if the market turns? I just assumed PMI was locked at the purchase appraisal price. (Again, me assuming)

Grimm, you are absolutely right. That good bye at the end was just cold and emotionless. The dissonance was palpable just watching it.

I agree. I don't care if the ideas aren't his, Cameron is an innovator and pioneer in the special effects world. You see the progression with that water tentacle thing in The Abyss, which was the first CGI water AND first computer generated three dimentional character put in film. That was the...

That came about from people insisting on their own little special snowflake character needed equal pixel distribution.

But yet there is Planetside 2, which is a SoE / DB product no less, which handles hundreds of players in the same areas all of the time without issue. As it is a FPS, it is very time / latency sensitive too. What is the excuse again? They have the tech, they lack the innovation to make a...

What the fuck? Sounds like there is a lot more to this story from the kid's perspective. Shouldn't hit mom EVER, but there could be some serious issues going on in that home if she is booting out a minor and abandoning a 10 year old at the house, not to mention a couple random 3-4 year olds left...

Not sure if it counts fall deaths / suicides. (Would be miniscule unless you were a complete tard)

That uplink is abysmal. 300 down, but only 5 up? Yea, congrats on Google soon!

I have worked abroad for the last ~16 years. I am American, work for an American company, paid in US Dollars into a US bank. I can relate to all of this. Though, it is easily remedied with a quick VPN connection. You only need to do this when making purchases or account management. I do...

Kill vs Death ratio Kills/Deaths = Ratio X/Y = Z If Y is > X then Z is <1.

I agree with the latency point, but you can also make the argument that the lowest latency 1600 ram costs you a premium too vs the larger latency 1600 chips. As you said, it is all about a balancing act for cost. If you feel confident overclocking, you can save quite a lot by upping your own...

No, anywhere from $5-$20 difference for 16GB of DDR3 1600 to 2133.

I was waiting for the "gaming" disclaimer. Because yes, I process batch files in Photoshop and for damn sure it makes a difference. Not everyone only uses their PCs for gaming.

Why is that? What would be the point of making ram faster at all then? My DDR3 is cruising along at 2400.

My son was a surprise to us. She had been on the pill, but later admitted that she hadn't been on point with taking it at the correct time every day. As others have said, it is far more likely that she fucked up taking the pills. Mine did at least admit to it.

Funny part is: ?Last sold: Jun 2009 for $250,000

And the normal Fire Strike result: (Holy shit)

My 980 Ti cards are beast!! Looks like I am ready for 4K gaming. 3770K at 4.5GHz 16GB Ram at 2400MHz 980Ti x2 Samsung 850 Pro 512GB

Makes sense, though I would be pretty pissed off. I just bought two 980 Ti cards! Speaking of which, the 980 Ti is the biggest card I have seen in many years. It's nearly 11 inches long and with the ACX 2.0 adds a lot of weight. Beefiest card I think I have ever seen!

I agree 100% with this. By all means Corndog, you know what works and what doesn't in your area.. but yea.. if most customers have jobs, how the hell are they supposed to come in to your store when the open hours are the same hours 99% of the workforce is.. working!?

Fuck me, have I stepped back in time with this entire discussion?? I don't know how all of these years later and people still have no fucking clue what happened. The entire events of the Island WERE REAL LIFE! No island "purgatory" bs. Basically Seasons 1-5 = REAL. Season 6 = afterlife wrap...

My two 980 Ti cards just arrived!! Can't wait to fire these up. (Replacing 670 SLI setup)

For all of its flaws, I still think Lost was a fun ride. But I too liked to pretend the last season never happened. Juliet set off the bomb, fade to white..The End

The Porsche proudly accounced their best Nurburgring time at 6m57s. Porsche 918 Spyder Tops Global Debut with New Nurburgring Record McLaren accounced their best lap of "under 7 minutes" which leads me to believe the Porsche marginally beat it or else they would have announced their exact...
