Re: General discussion chat GOD DAMNIT! We were so close! We almost made it through the nighttime laptop conversation without mentioning it! AHH! WE'RE NOT GETTING THAT ACHIEVEMENT NOW!
Re: General discussion chat I'm contemplating between an R9 270X, a reference HD 7850, or a used 7870/7850. I can crossfire with all. Hmm...
Re: General discussion chat Me neither. I have a phone too. Some people seem to need a bit of sleep. Not me, I go to bed at 3-5 am. Every day. Sleep is for the weak.
Re: General discussion chat I got the 270 for $110 used. Pretty good deal IMO. The only real reason I have for buying a second instead of getting something better is because I already have one.
Re: General discussion chat If it's a 500W, unless it's 80+ gold/platinum it will blow up. A 500W PSU at 85% efficiency, you get ~430W. Two R9 270s, an overclocked FX-8320 plus motherboard, hard drives etc. will use more than 430W at peak load. My PC needs ~450 and I'm running a single 270 and a much more efficient Intel CPU. Get an R9 270. Don't buy a 270X, you can easily OC a 270 to 1050 MHz with no stability issues. An overclocked 270 or a 270X gets slightly better performance than a 7870. And definitely don't buy the reference 7850, it will burn and explode because AMD reference cooler. I love typing on this keyboard. It's great.
Re: General discussion chat Be Quiet 500w. It's Bronze. :L If it dies I'll RMA it and then buy a 650w Corsair.
Re: General discussion chat You can't draw 500W+ from a PSU that can only deliver up to 430 and expect it to work.
Re: General discussion chat And that's why you keep a hand over the top of the bong, kids. JK, that poor PSU.
Re: General discussion chat Why the fuck doesn't gmod have log files? It's the game with the most crashes ever.
Re: General discussion chat On youtube, I just got explained, in 2 very long paragraphs, why I'm too young to buy a crown vic. He pretty much told me that he knows my finances better than me and I can't afford the car because I'm 14, then went on to continuously refer to it as a "V8 muscle car", and even one time told me "it's a man's car not a kids car". Then, just to rub salt in the wound, he told me to buy, his exact words, an "econobox" and drive that until I'm 18 and "mature enough to handle the power of a v8" I told him, in as eloquent of a way as I could to go f*ck himself. I normally don't censor myself around here, but I've received far too many infractions for language and I'm trying to clean it up a little.
Re: General discussion chat that means you looked at youtube comments, which is something you should NEVER do, youtube comments are toxic AT BEST, not to mention how idiotic some, wait no, MOST commenters are
Re: General discussion chat It's kinda strange that it was a fellow crown vic enthusiast, who I see constantly commenting on crown vic videos and such. He usually makes mature, informative comments with good grammar. This was the opposite. I think he was just trying to piss me off, but whatever. But, yes, youtube comments are toxic.
Re: General discussion chat Same reason a week ago a rather famous 18 year old german football star killed himself with his newly bought 500 PS Porsche or what it was. Money doesn't buy experience!
