Re: General discussion chat See these videos if it would bother you: http://www.computerbase.de/2015-01/geforce-gtx-970-vram-speicher-benchmarks/4/ In Germany a lot of people are actually sending them back currently.
Re: General discussion chat They already said they'll release a driver update for that, my guess is they'll let you disable the slow .5GB. And that half gig is faster than sending it to system RAM over PCIE anyway.
Re: General discussion chat I'm stupid. Windows 10 Tech preview is my primary OS for the time being. I thought, "Well, I have this .iso here, might as well use it." It's so nice. I kinda feels like a flat and ugly Windows 7 with new features. I'm now testing Windows 8.1 driver support as they're pretty much similar and the 8.1 drivers for my chipset installed no problem. Oh, smooth scrolling in the IE Tech Preview is nice too. Oh, ffs. It has terrible support for multi-monitors out of the box.
Re: General discussion chat So a few weeks ago my dog knocked over a cup of soda on my desk. Apparently it got inside my laptop and dried. It's cooked onto the heatsink now. (I played a lot of Portal 2 on it awhile ago.) (imported from here) (After cleaning it the best I could.) If I don't but an M4500 soon I'll probably get a new heatsink because I hate knowing that's there. Also because, as you can see, there are a couple small dents in one pipe. Doesn't really affect anything, but still.
Re: General discussion chat Just replace the sinks, also you know you will need to upgrade the compound too so that's a help.

Re: General discussion chat Ok then. Wanted to restart the thread right now. Off to lunch any moment, hope I won't die. School food is the utter worst. Once, I was almost puking in line because the smell was so bad. Needless to say, that day, I didn't eat.

Re: General discussion chat how i feel everytime i see someone post about getting google fiber on PCMR:
Re: General discussion chat Same here, although Fiber came to Atlanta, I'm too far out of the metro area to get it. FML. Need true gigabit.
