    Has to bode well if 4K OLEDs can get down to reasonable prices, LED/LCDs will be DIRT cheap at that point

    TCU vs Texas Tech tonight. I have a feeling this game may end up playing pretty big into who wins the Big 12 this year. That conference looks like a total crapshoot. It's almost easier to list the teams that have no chance of winning the conference (kansas, iowa st, west virginia) than the...

    They're so good that even re-heated in a microwave from being frozen they're better than 99% of the rest of BBQ on Earth. So good. I always keep a couple packs in the freezer and some extra Jack Stack or Gates sauce in the fridge to add to them. I'll totally just sit down and eat a pound of...

    That's the international sign for not being ready to settle down. Basically you like the idea of a girlfriend except for when it might impede with getting other tail. If the girl you are with doesn't immediately make you want to stop looking at other women, she isn't the right one. Do...

    what kind of ping & bandwidth hit do you take by routing everything through that VPN? I would assume you'd want to disable it while gaming? Reason I ask is that I'm often gaming on one screen and jacking around on the internet or messing with torrents on my 2nd monitor, wasn't sure a VPN would...

    There's a pretty big difference between dating sites, and hook-up sites. If anyone wants to pull a Celebrindal, you can easily do the same on dozens of sites and Craigslist as well. I have a feeling the original intent of this thread was pointed more towards the end of the spectrum of adults...

    Yep, a Seedbox will come with a certain amount of storage(usually hundreds of GB or more) so your files will just sit on their servers seeding constantly as long as you want them to.

    If you can't tell an obvious difference from the features/connections on the motherboard (such as the more expensive one supporting RAID or stuff like that), it usually just comes down to build quality, which usually only becomes a factor when you are overclocking. Higher quality parts will...

    Same here Eyashusa, our kid just had his 4 month checkup on Monday and a fresh round of immunizations, shots in each leg. He screamed for about 30 seconds, then was fine. But boy was he tired, we got him home at about 3pm and he slept until 7pm(skipping his 4pm feeding, we couldn't wake him at...

    Spend a few hours on the Blue Nile website to get a feel for how the various factors of a diamond effect it's price. You can play around with their sliders to find the sweet spot for your budget. There's always a certain level of carat, cut, clarity, etc where a diamond starts to get...

    It seems like anymore, the only time you can get DVD/Bluray quality rips significantly before the actual disk release is around Oscar time. Most movie studios send out DVD screeners of their hopeful Oscar-worthy movies in November or so, sometimes you can even get movies that aren't even in...

    At this point, I don't know that I would invest that much money (looking at $450-$500+ for crossfired 7950s), when the next generation of cards is right around the corner for AMD. It's already here for Nvidia(700-series cards) If you absolutely have to have an upgrade right now, spend that...

    Baldur's Gate nwn2 remake - Nearing Release

    Lol wow, I never played NWN2, but boy does it run like a hunk of shit. I can run Crysis 3 on max settings at 1920x1200, but this game runs like a slideshow and its like 6+ years old isn't it? Its pretty much unplayable. Oddly enough, the game is reporting that I'm getting like 150+ FPS, but...

    I love seeing the insanely wild mood swings that Georgia fans have towards Richt. Talk to a Georgia fan the week after the Clemson game and they'd happily grab a torch and help you run him out of town. 1 week later after beating South Carolina, Richt is back to being a coaching god that can do...

    I'm kinda with Tuco here. The graphics look awesome, but I don't want to find out 150 hours into it that there is some game-breaking bug that will never get patched. BG is a massive time investment, I want to know that it is done correctly.

    Bar Ownership?

    Damn, is that the case everywhere or does it vary wildly from state to state depending on laws and ordinances? Only reason I ask is that we have a family friend who owns a steakhouse that is in a resort town/small town, and he always talks about almost all of his profit coming from liquor...

    You can do the audio via HDMI, or alternately almost all on-board audio options anymore have a digital optical out port on them. I'd be hard to find a motherboard that didn't have an optical out. Seems like the only motherboards that don't have an optical out are some of the really low-end...

    I've yet to see any out of sync audio. The only audio issue I had at all was the default setting seemed to bee too quiet, but it has a setting in the software for boosting the audio volume, I crank it up about 50-60% extra and it seems to be fine. Then again, I'm also making these for my...

    2013 NFL Season

    I think the NFC is going to come down to who has home-field advantage. Green Bay beats San Fran if they play in Green Bay. Those two teams are close enough that where they play is probably the only difference between them.

    This is why I always recommend that if you are on a tight budget for a build, to go ahead and get the SSD now, and skip the large storage drive if you can't afford both. Re-installing an OS is a bit of a pain in the ass, not to mention all the other programs tied to it that have to be...
