Eh, maybe I didn't convey it properly, but I was actually saying that I know Chuk sometimes just posts things he thinks others might be interested in, so I never jump to the conclusion (anymore at least) that he believes everything he posts. It is all the other people that don't have that same...

One thing about the motherboard, do you care about wifi on the board? I didn't, so I saved a few bucks not paying for it there. It isn't a dealbreaker or anything in a $3000 setup, but just saying. I'm curious if that monitor @Crone bought for $300 was brand new? That seems ridiculously...

Unless you specifically want that card, this is the one I bought, it has an additional 10% off right now, bringing it down to $680. GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2080 GAMING OC 8G Graphics Card, 3 x WINDFORCE Fans, 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6, GV-N2080GAMING OC-8GC Video Card - Newegg.com Still waiting for it...

I'm not saying that anyone here is, but at least a few people on the internets certainly are. Including that original article. And since this comes up enough: I've said it before, without some sort of commentary by the person posting, I have no idea if someone is posting because they believe...

So there is zero radiation to be found in Hiroshima and Nagasaki today, almost 75 years later, but this site still has radiation 8000 to 12000 years later? Do these people know how half lives work? EDIT: Well, that was a quick search. They even mentioned half-lives like I did! Defusing...

Here's my perspective. I was not excited by Brie being cast in the role (I called Emily Blunt for it way early), but I figured I was stuck with it, so why not be optimistic? Until about a month ago, there wasn't too much to be upset about. Unfortunately, they released tickets prior to that...

Yeah, that's true of most stuff nowadays. If you're having trouble with someone on Amazon, that isn't Amazon, plop a fat 1-star review down (preferably with at least a couple sentences of coherent complaints). You'll be contacted almost immediately, asking how they can fix your issue and get...

I don't know how this all started, just going by what I see in this thread full of faggotry, but I think the main question being asked is whether or not a tranny of moderate skill is going to fuck up highly skilled bitches in the Olympics. To which the answer is a definite yes. Just having...

I don't have an Epic Games account, but I'm assuming it is like Steam. You should have waited until they bought some games first!

Hmm. I mean, it probably doesn't really matter, but that was sort of my whole point in getting the M.2 form factor in the first place, as this case has convenient mounting for 2 standard 2.5" drives otherwise. Can you recommend a replacement perhaps? I'm not averse to returning this one and...

I ended up ordering this and all the other stuff I had listed in my last build post. Should be getting most of it throughout the week. Ended up costing just about 3 grand, which is obviously way more than the $1k I estimated to begin with, but I decided this needs to last me a long time, so...

The pricing matches the link for me, so it must be something to do with the region. As far as I can tell, matching model numbers and such, it is the same monitor as this one on Newegg (for a LOT more cost) Acer XF270HU Abmiidprzx 27" 144Hz 4ms (GTG) ZeroFrame 2560 x 1440 Gaming Monitor, AMD...

Thanks for all that info, I appreciate it. I didn't realize that was the same monitor you guys were talking about. I've looked at so many monitors, they all run together. Thinking this one might be my pick. Any thoughts on it?

You're gonna have to give me a link or something, because I have no fucking idea what you are talking about. We all know that white is better, but the only white ones I see are external drives, but that is just the color of the case, not the drive series. Unless you mean "white label" which...

I have all reds in my NAS, and they are wonderful. I would recommend them to anyone. Personally I didn't necessarily want to buy reds for just a "regular" drive, but there's hardly anything else out there anymore but high end "black" type drives, which I see no need to spend the money on now...

I have dozens of Steam games installed at any one time. Do I play them all? Of course not. But if I do want to play one, I don't want to wait an hour for it to download and install. And sorry, there is a definite difference with many games going from HDD to SDD. Battletech and Pathfinder...

Anyone have any thoughts/experience with this monitor? Will be running with the RTX2080 listed above if nothing else changes. I don't know a lot about TN vs IPS other than IPS is better color/clarity, supposedly. Will I notice a difference? Everything IPS with similar refresh and size is...

The Fractal Meshify C Dark is the case. It is listed there, just way down. I talked about the 32GB of memory in my previous post, I actually do see a difference with the more complex Minecraft mod packs. They would crash from being OOM fairly regularly, but when I upgraded from 16 to 32, that...

For $75 a day I'd either be eating high quality steak every day (since you can't make it yourself on the road), or I'd find a network of chinese food places that offer rub & tugs in the back room. Bob Kraft can probably hook me up with some locations.

Updated with a few lower cost options already mentioned, and a legit video card choice. Still way over my original budget, but fuck it. I have the money, just didn't think video cards would be so expensive, or that I'd want to upgrade resolution, etc. Went with smaller M2 drive since it is...

Well it was more of a placeholder like I said, but that's good info to have, thank you. I'm hoping to figure things out for video cards after things shake out with this new release today. Is there any difference between the 860 and 970 that is worth even worrying about? I'm assuming no, so...

Ok, go ahead and roast me! The video card is more of a placeholder right now. I still need to decide if I want 1440p, and a new monitor, I'll need more drives, etc. And before you ask, yes I need 32GB of memory. Many of the more complex Minecraft modpacks crashed on me constantly with 16GB...

Just wait until you start taking naps instead. I'm single, no kids, live alone, and every day when I get home from work it is a struggle not to take a 2-3 hour nap. Funny thing is, I typically go to bed at the same time (after midnight) whether I've taken a nap or not. Everyone always says it...

You ate 8 fucking biscuit sandwiches? My rectum prolapsed just from thinking about it.

I get that, but yeah, it's all the "other" stuff that I just don't see the same way some people do.

Your "server" would be the PC now, so it would be the output source. It wouldn't need to send back to the QNAP. The time it takes to get the file from the NAS is negligible (unless you've got some really terrible 1980s networking I suppose) compared to the transcoding time. I'm assuming that...
