  1. ROTFL of course Nvidia wouldn't do anything to effect their OWN video card.... (Nvidia)"Have no fear! Only Founder wanna be's will suffer the dread limit/throttle!"
  2. lol, I was just about to ask why U were against also. I ran across a similar story a little while back. It had the guy from NY in it,but less coverage of the other states. This * REALLY needs to be pushed through.3rd party is the only way to bring the prices of all of them within reason,they know once 3rd parties are allowed to do repairs they won't be able to get away with 6 week repairs that cost half the price of the product after shipping fees.?
  3. lol,had a toy alligator we'd bought for the grandaughters,had the hardest time explaining to the younger 1 that she couldn't have 1 for a pet.She insisted that if she was nice to it it would always be nice to her.... ?
  4. ROTFL, I love looking at the purchases on here and than seeing mine like this.... Had to replace the old 1 'cause the power supply for it went out last night.
  5. yeah, i saw that also. I just couldn't see how anyone could really justify to themselves the price difference between the 11700k and the 11900k.
  6. when 1 of my grandaughters was about 9-10 years old,she asked when she'd be allowed to date? I told her "When a boy writes a song like this for you,I'll let you date him."Then played this for her.? She ran into our bedroom and threw herself onto the bed with her grandma(who was playing a game) crying that she was NEVER gonna be able to date. Needless to say,I caught hell from the wife. ?
  7. Ok,I ran across an add showing Intel is giving away free copies of amazon delivery boy Err I mean "Death Stranding" with the purchase of certain 10th or 11th gen cpu's. So,I looked at them outta curiosity. seriously? a $200 price increase between the i7-11700k and the i9-11900k and the only real difference I'm seeing is the i9 has a .3 (POINT 3) greater max clock speed? SAME = Cores,threads,L3cache,Manufacturing tech,memory support,graphics,pci,ect. Are people really that desperate for the "latest greatest" that they will pay that much more for that little? If this is Intel's latest,greatest, then I'm not surprised they feel the need to give away a monotonous game to try to boost the sales of a previous generation of cpu's. I think it's sad they had to drop back to 8 cores on the i9 in the 11th gen when they had 10 cores the previous gen.
  8. in a country mood.... oh,added this just because, well,how couldn't I?
  9. Why does it look like someone just held a torch on it???
  10. 1 night Amazon delivered "my" package and it was the persons down the hall. Delivery guy was already down the hall knocking on their door by the time I'd opened mine.I ran down the hall and caught them as the other person was opening THEIR door and showed the delivery guy AND the other resident the mixed up package.She was nice enough to swap with me,he just said sorry and continued on his way,and I wrote up a complaint about how my $500+ dollar delivery was being left at wrong address!? (was my video card) You'd think they'd double ck when dropping off. He'd even left the notice on line saying my package was delivered.
  11. OUCH! that'll suck if it's not compatible.having to drain the whole system to just top up once you run out of the other? ?
  12. Just bought my Grandaughter The Eagles Greatest Hits vol 1 & 2 on vinyl and was listening to this while finding that for her. 9 outta the 12 tracks from the live concert in this playlist.
  13. with the amount of mining farms they allow to run in their own country,you expect them to worry about being eco-friendly in SPACE? ?
  14. wait, the article says "There remains "little association" between technology use and mental-health problems" but later has a link to a study that says "Teenagers' mental health is being damaged by heavy social media use, a report has found." Don't you have to use tech to access social media?
  15. (The whole Agents Of Fortune album is awesome,So is Fire of Unknown Origin) Had to throw in a track with Patti Smith on it also.
  16. Well, Considering I've purchased games on sale CHEAPER straight from ubisoft's site and from CDKeys then just put the code in on steams site. latest example was Destiny 2's Beyond Light Deluxe Edition. Shown are the prices it sells on Steam for,AND the price I bought it for from CDKeys. Also the link from steam to add keys purchased elsewhere. I think you'll see I managed a pretty good savings.I've also bought keys straight from ubi,and used them on other sites.Oh,I added a pic of the content in my library in case anyone wondered if the key worked.
  17. If you already own the original,from what I'm gathering the enhanced edition is a free update. ? makes me think there might actually be more than just 1 game company who takes care of their user base.The other I had in mind being Techland with Dying Light.? https://www.pcgamer.com/metro-exodus-enhanced-edition-is-free-for-existing-owners-but-needs-some-serious-hardware-to-run/
  18. Damn! I gotta update a game I haven't even played yet! ? Looks awesome! Edit: Went to update, found out this in case anyone else interested. "The ray tracing exclusive version of the game comes out on May 6."
  19. Not only that,but I can actually get new hardware (even with the shortages) easier than my wife who's a console gamer.We got her an xbox at release,but STILL haven't managed a ps5.(I refuse to pay scalper rates!)
  20. ? Another example..... Those of us gaming on PC "Aren't fooling anyone..." ?
  21. Meh,he'll have people's estates trying to sue for "unsafe travel conditions" or some such. ?
  22. I figured I'd give replicating his issue a try using his link(I normaly just use a bookmark to come to the home page) It loaded right up as usual for me.See the screenshot.Edit: That's with me logged in already and ABP on.
  23. Being the true scalper/dirtbag I am, I'll offer you a TRUE work horse cpu in exchange for those 2 so-so work gpu's. 1 intel q6600 never overclocked... ? Edit: My conscience is bothering me about taking advantage of you,so I'll throw in a Pentium D 630 to make it more fair.... ?
  24. Give them credit,Techland hasn't left us twiddling our thumbs while we wait for them to get dying light 2 done up right.?
  25. AliExpress: "We have this new source for Human Stem cells,they are perfectly safe..." Customer after purchase: "Hey hon,can you scratch under my tail for me?I can't reach that far..."
