    those Brits are tough

    That's impressive. Everyone talks about the seals and forgets that there are plenty of other countries out there with that special sort of badasses. The US does not hold a monopoly on toughness. We do hold a monopoly on Clint Eastwood though. Which is the first thing I thought about when I...

    External Video Cards

    It does, with more pictures even. It was a while ago though. I posted up about it almost the day it was finished. It brought back so many memories of my early teens hanging out in the arcades. I couldn't wait to show it off once it was done...

    External Video Cards

    They do work quite well. You do lose a percentage of processing power compared to a normal PCI slot and they can be quite a pain to set up. However, they do stomp the piss out of integrated chips and beat the hell out of most mobile cards. I currently have one in use powering my arcade. I...

    Some Youtube comment Hall of Fame

    Have you ever really looked around you when you're driving anywhere in your car? The internet is kind of the same thing. You will see people openly picking their nose. You'll see them blatantly cut in line. You'll see rude gestures, crazy insults, and even other... lewder things. A friend...

    Some Youtube comment Hall of Fame

    The one that confuses me is the ever present argument that 1's and 0's have no value. Therefore any purchase of digital items is nothing more than a complete waste of money. We are all just being conned and scammed out of our money by every developer to offer such goods. Even if we completely...

    Bottleneck suggestions (hardware upgrading)

    Just a thought, how much do you have plugged in? A solid 600 watt PSU might be enough for the basics, but if you have tons of peripherals, wifi cards, case lighting, and various other addons, it might cause your system to get power starved. I usually pick out a solid 1kw psu on all my builds...

    Upgrade or wait and see?

    Keep in mind too, there are other factors that can lead to periodic freezes. This is particularly true on a PC older than 2 years. What I would do is: Check your memory. Try memtest86. If you have a bad sector on your ram, it can cause hitches and freezeups. Check your PSU. Do the math on...

    Windows 10, pro, or ride out 7?

    So I have been stubbornly avoiding Windows 10. Everything has worked fine on 7 so far and I love the OS. So I have had no real need to upgrade to 10. Lately though, I have hit more and more roadblocks. For instance, many new Oculus games require 10 to run. So as a result I have started...

    Anyone got a GPU for sale? Mine shit the bed :\

    It's actually not too bad at all as long as you stay out of the bitcoin batch of cards. The 1050ti is an excellent choice and can get you by, even in SC. It's not top of the line but it will work. I just picked one off Amazon new for $148. The last one I bought was just shy of $200 and is...

    Brother's computer stuck at BIOS screen, can't enter BIOS.

    Yep, Mitch has it right. Give that a go and see what happens. If that doesn't work, I would then strip down the mobo and start running proven parts. I'd deconstruct the computer onto my bench, hook up a single stick of proven ram, a proven psu, cpu, and run it just like that. If you can...

    Cyberpunk 2077 at E3 this year

    I am right there with you. They will have my money at their earliest possible convenience. I completely understand. I have the same concern with most MMOs that have sprawling, massive, open main cities. The first thought in my head is "this is going to make the game look dead even if there...

    Cyberpunk 2077 at E3 this year

    E3 has been a good one this year. There have been quite a few exciting updates and announcements. The one that sticks out the most for me though, is Cyberpunk 2077. I really enjoy the cyberpunk world. I grew up with it. The world was just so amazing. It never really stuck around though as...

    OMG!!! A third second chance? (APB)

    So I was roaming around the interwebs today and I stumbled across some information that I hadn't even dreamed could happen. APB Reloaded has a new owner and they really want to finally realize the dream of what this game could have been. Needless to say, I'm downloading it again now. For...

    [Video] Montoya rips Sid Alpha a new one

    I think there are two main issues that completely disconnect the average complainer with the facts. The first is the entirely subjective concept of value. To one person, $100 is life changing. To them, that's a half year of disposable income. Either through bad life events or bad life...

    I Am a Gunter......Ready Player One ! ! !

    I just got out of it myself. It was worth every penny. Normally, I have issues with movies based on the book. It wasn't the case with this movie though. It was more a nod to the book than a play-by-play. It was the right choice. As far as living in a virtual world, we're not far off. I...

    EPIC right wing rant in Far Cry 5

    You can get Lays Ketchup chips here in the US. They're a bit more expensive, but you can. https://www.amazon.com/Canadian-Lays-Potato-Ketchup-Family/dp/B00CMR5KHM/ref=sr_1_5_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1522377890&sr=8-5&keywords=lays+ketchup+chips&dpID=517yDUmR42L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch Which...

    Can I get a roll call for fans of the game Anthem?

    I really like the idea behind this game. I'm interested in playing. Then again, I'm game to try just about anything. The industry has been so damn absent good options lately. Don't get me wrong. There have been a ton great candidates. So many games have been good on paper. Great ideas...

    I'm Glad 3.1 Is Out...

    In the internet age, be careful what you wish. The nantuckett poem is... different. Google "there once was a man from nantuckett" at your own risk.
