  1. #1 Just wanna say the fact you made a mod that works is cool! #2 The fact that others are using it/playing it that you don't even know is awesome! ?
  2. (sigh) It would be nice if they actually made more PS5's for consumers to purchase before they worried about making a new VR format for the few that are in the public's hands....? OR at least found a way to block the bots from their site when they DO list a new batch for sale.
  3. It came installed in my Dell XPS 8300. I should have gone with the nvidia card they offered,but I just waited and upgraded to a gtx 970 on that and used the 5770 on my xeon build before I got a nvidia card for it. ? It's the back that kinda looks like it's a carrying handle on the end.lol Edit: I found a pair of them for sale just now on ebay for $60.00 lol here's a pic from there...
  4. an example of why I don't post "ugly pics". My parts would die of shame and I might be reported for abuse.... This is an HD 5770 with the metal back plate,I had to cut the end of the plate off because it wouldn't fit in 1 of my cases like it was.?
  5. listening to this playlist now.... Mostly Black Crowes,some classic rock,and a couple of country tracks.
  6. CCR always makes me think of Tom & John Fogerty still being mad at each other when Tom died because of the record company screwing them over royalties and Tom settling.I'm just glad Chris & Rich Robinson of the Black Crowes made up and didn't end up the same way.
  7. My bad,I keep forgetting that some of us are in different countries so we have different play/rights on youtube. Alice Cooper Second Coming & Ballad of Dwight Fry. The 2 songs really need to be played together for best effect 'Cause the first leads into the second. ?
  8. And meanwhile,the average person has gotten creative to fight back at the scalpers.... Note that 44 "people" have actually bid on this picture of a video card and the price is now $280.00 with a couple of days to go. ?
  9. lol, don't be so stand offish, after all,it now ships with Stadia as 1 of the Default Apps! https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/12/08/every-new-feature-and-improvement-weve-found-in-chrome-os-87/ Dang! I may just pick 1 up to play with 4 the hell of it. never mind,looking @ prices, there are notebooks from Acer and Asus with Windows 10 and better specs in the same price range as the mid to upper end chromebooks. *? The world has gone mad,MAD I SAY! ?
  10. I'm reading more on it now,alot of it looks like the sales because of the covid issue(home schooling,work) ". What's more, they're actually selling faster than Macs at this point, with Chrome OS representing roughly 13% of all U.S. computer shipments in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to Apple's 8.7% share, according to Gartner."https://www.computerworld.com/article/3603041/chrome-os-features.html
  11. 6 of one,half a dozen of the other? With the price of the Chrome books and the hardware on some of them you can understand why people would choose those over a Mac for some home uses(school,light work)
  12. The North Dakota senate just voted down the bill that would've banned Apple and Google from taking a cut of app sales from firms in the state.The vote in North Dakota was 36 senators against the bill, 11 for it. Arizona, Georgia and Massachusetts are now considering similar legislation, which is being pushed by Epic Games and its group,appfairness.?
  13. And the fight continues... https://techcrunch.com/2021/02/17/epic-games-takes-its-apple-app-store-fight-to-europe/?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20v&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAALxNhl8hzkyzAYedvxs4JZZc4KUA9lnYTgrnGrZ23GlYt09OgnQ7GuYVdQ4l2apR7hrOavRlC4ocOf-s6spFMkwvGF2cjbPx8-ymTOFmDxSlzyHYc5MjAuWIlQvqnHuH7ccJSK2CAtxgGbDnlWIQtjnMLtmIg1Y2avADmNMrV5Wi
  14. Oh HELL no, Sean Connery had plastic surgery and changed his name to Roger Moore before he had more Surgery and changed it back to Sean Connery later in life.(Aliases were always uses in the films to protect Bonds REAL identity...)After the second set of surgeries they just used a really good make up man to change his appearance and gave him different aliases in the later movies.It's still Connery though... ?
  15. Well,that was disappointing.After ck'n for supported hardware,this was the results. Nvidia = RTX 3090,3080,3070,3060Ti,3060,and RTX 30 Series Laptops.Also,Titan RTX,RTX 20 Series laptops,RTX 2080Ti,2080 S,2080,2070 S,2070,2060 S,and 2060.(so much for those who bought the 1600 series cards with the software support for the other features,Nvidia appreciates the money you wasted...) AMD support is RDNA2 from what I'm seeing and card wise here it is.DirectX® 12 Ultimate is Microsoft’s most robust DirectX® feature set ever and is fully supported on AMD Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics cards and both new generation consoles(xbox series X/S and PS5)? they're gonna make people upgrade regardless.
  16. lol, I'm currently clearing the hdd on my other pc, cpu=i7 2700 gpu=gtx970 so you're far from being old hardware wise. (deleting games off the drive since I use the new rig mostly for my gaming) ?
  17. my first thought was that when the games start using it it would make gaming possible even for older generation cards and the current amd's wouldn't have to be replaced as quickly to stay viable.
  18. lol, this is the company that charges you $150.00 to assemble the parts they pick for your build along with the cost of parts & shipping, and gives you a ONE year warranty. ?
  19. Seagate BarraCuda ST2000DM008 2TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive = $54.99 WD Blue 3D NAND 1TB Internal SSD - SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5"/7mm Solid State Drive - WDS100T2B0A = $109.99 WD Blue 3D NAND 1TB Internal SSD - SATA III 6Gb/s M.2 2280 Solid State Drive - WDS100T2B0B = $99.99 Hard drives will continue to sell as storage as long as the price difference remains like this. Twice the space @ half the price. ? prices per newegg.
  20. Isn't that when Nvidia will be releasing their 3080 Super cards? I mean if they follow the same release program as the RTX 2xxx series.... ? Oh, and the new 3060's will be dropping @ the end of this month also from 3rd party makers.(no founders edition)With 12 GB of ram.
  21. lol, and here's Nvidia's answer to the shortage.... https://www.pcworld.com/article/3607190/nvidia-rtx-30-graphics-card-shortages-gaming-gpu-gtx-1050-ti-geforce-rtx-2060.html “There have been a lot of rumors recently about Nvidia releasing more GPUs to AIBs from older generations—the [GeForce] RTX 2060 and GTX 1050 Ti were specifically mentioned,”
  22. YIKES! https://www.zdnet.com/article/plex-media-servers-are-being-abused-for-ddos-attacks/
