    This is true. Do a clean install on an SSD!! Much less headaches. Quite a few processes are changed and / or disabled by default on an SSD install. (Prefetch, defrag, TRIM, etc)

    I get your post-50 frustration. I think the biggest problem is lack of exciting zones with decent xp. You have FoB, Kurns, PC, and HK to blow through quick levels 1-50 but then you are left with pretty much nothing. Most seem to use PoN but compared to the pace of the previous zones its like...

    Hell levels are in full effect on the server as well, so 51, 54 and 59 are particularly bad.

    I noticed that a couple weeks back when I clicked their preorder page. One of many other reasons I decided not to go through with the purchase.

    I am not claiming I have some magic fucking vision or anything, but I am sitting (at a guess) 12-14ft away from a 75" tv and I can tell night and day between a 720p and 1080p source. Anytime, night or day, blind test me. I wish I couldnt tell the difference because I would save a shit ton of...

    Still going to have to disagree with your 1080p->4k is marginal. The PPI on everything else (phones, tablets, laptops, etc) has skyrocketed and look amazing for it. My 75" Samsung would make a huge difference jumping up to 4k. I have seen the 85" Samsung 4k and the 84" Sony 4k and they are...

    Lets not forget about the artificially inflated prices LONG after the crisis subsides (ala Hard Drives from 2 years ago). HD prices were dirt cheap a couple years back. I remember getting five 2TB mid-range Western Digital drives for my NAS for around $80 a piece. A couple weeks later, they had...

    4k is useless? Yea.. going to have to disagree with you there. 32 channel audio? Probably overkill, but I can see it being handy for handling multi source audio over 1 cable. *edit* Yep:

    Joeboo's advice in his last few posts has been exactly spot on. I have been building rigs for myself and friends for ~15 years now and agree 100% with what he has said. Build a system now and enjoy it for a couple of years. Upgrade the video card at that point and continue on. The CPU market...

    You can find me in-game as Jysin. I am happy to help you out where I can. I am a recent Temerity app, so maybe I can change your image of the guild a bit. Darchon is an ok guy. I think he is just crazy busy with his alts at times to hold any normal conversation. There have been some extremely...

    I still have the original tutorial that came with my Kunark disk. I wonder if I could install it, and run the tutorial without running the patcher.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    My last 3 cars have been BMW. One was a 2006 that I owned for 5 years and the only thing thing I had to replace were a couple of wheel bearings (normal wear and tear). Hell, they replaced the disks and pads multiple times under their Service Plan. It was honestly the best car I ever owned. I...

    There was also an audio file inside a few of the bars / taverns. You could faintly hear murmurs and bar chatter and glasses klinking. I remember trying to figure out what they were saying.

    Yea, beat me to it.. My first 3 cars I owned in my life didn't have airbags and I am still alive! *shock* OP: Keep the beater. Get over the association of it being such an ordeal and just use the car. Fuck repairing the airbag. Did the garage point out any mechanical faults? Didnt sound like...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    It's not unheard of at all, no. When I quit in GoD I sold off 2.7 mil plat and I was a raider. I still had a Sceptre of Destruction, pre-nerf Circlet of Shadows, Holgresh Beads, and Fungi Staff too so could have had significantly more if I decided to liquidate my dropables. I too could never...

    My guild did it once and then never again after. Half of the stupid ring event was sitting around with your thumb up your ass waiting for the next wave to spawn. I still have a couple of screenshots with the bored mages carpeting the floor with mod rods. LOL.

    Oblivion - Tom Cruise goes WALL-E

    I did say though that when I watched this, I hadnt seen a single trailer and knew nothing about it other than Tom Cruise and it being Sci-Fi. I think it was a lot more enjoyable. After watching the trailer after the film, I would have been pissed if I saw it before hand. Sure you could probably...

    EQ NEXT ART DIRECTION POLL

    Dammit, I voted before catching up the last 20 pages of the EQN thread. I'd like to change my "dont have a strong opinion" to "I dont like it" after seeing the DE and female Dwarf models. I didnt like the Kerra (mostly the armor) in the original reveal, but the world scenery was good enough to...

    I think you are missing my point. I have no brand loyalty at all and I go where the performance is. I have had AMD and Intel, ATI and nVidia, Seagate and Western Digital, an iPhone and a Samsung Galaxy, etc. My point was that if AMD made chips that rivaled the performance of Intel's offerings...

    They werent any different than Intel. Intel had their "Extreme Edition" CPUs and AMD had their Athlon 64 "FX" lineup. I remember shelling out for a FX-60 back then as well. Athlon 64 was their mainstream chips.

    Back in 2005 / 2006, AMD cpus were not only cheaper, but superior to the Intel chips for gaming. AMD's Athlon 64 chips were what really turned it around for the company, but late 2006 Intel released the Core 2 Duo and have held the performance crown by quite a margin since then. It would be nice...

    Yea, PSU is definitely upside down. Those holes in the bottom of the case under the PSU are meant for the unit to draw in cool air externally, not hot air from within the case.

    Pyzjn to this day is still my EQ nemesis for the exact reasons you stated. That bitch just never gives up a GBS. I have camped her through many iterations of playing (live, emu, Mac server, etc) and despite killing her countless times, it was always a damn rusty dagger. I still find myself...

    Yea, I never got the hype of this show. After hearing lots raving about the show, including my own brother, I went and downloaded the first couple seasons. S1 barely held any interest and I think I made it halfway through S2 before giving up. It's just another generic zombie bullshit plot. I...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    You know, I really like Kevin Spacey as an actor and I was kinda let down that the Superman film bombed that he was in. Spacey plays these characters well and I thought it was a shame we likely wouldnt get to see him again as Lex. But Cranston? Great choice. I am optimistic again!
