halp.

So my friend started having this happen to him in games (moreso in 3D games) and occasionally blue/purple flickering. It appears to be coming off of other players/chickens (don't know if that means anything). He's also had missing letters and just general flickering whilst browsing Windows. Originally I thought it would be linked to software because it wouldn't artfiact in the bios but after the problem recurring in my PC as well I dunno. I put it in my PC to see if it does it there and it did so the problem is definitely linked to the GPU, I'm quite confident we'll probably have to use the warranty (but I really would prefer not to have to), however if anyone could have any advice/input on this it'd be much appreciated. Notes: - GPU is a Gigabyte 290 Windforce - No overclocks . - This only started happening a little bit after installing a new OS on the PC. - GPU had been running fine for a year and a bit before this started happening. - Temps are good. - Degree of artifacting appears to be dependent on load. Thanks, soaringchicken

Didn't this already happen ages ago?

it's got 4.5 stars so I can't see why not.

Obviously the EVGA G2 would be best case scenario, as a cheaper alternative I'd probably go for this: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Modular-Warranty-110-B1-0750-VR/dp/B00K85X23O/ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1451629589&sr=1-4&keywords=750+watt+power+supply

I've had good experiences with Coolermaster PSU's, so I can safely recommend their GM series, there is a 650 and a 750 watt series but I'd go for the 750 just because it's the price difference is often marginal, the higher end series, Vanguard is also pretty good (the one that I have): it's gold rated and semi modular. For an alternate I know that the EVGA G2 series is very good as well (probably better than the Coolermasters)

I wouldn't recommend it, but if you did decide to, I'd maybe underclock the GPU maybe a little just to be safe.

I think you should be fine, 650w will be plenty.

Ohh I sort of glossed over the PSU part, you'd probably want 650+ watts for a 980ti.

idk really I think it comes down to personal preference, lots of people like different things: I mean some people play with low sensitivity, some play with high, some like weighted mice, etc. My best recommendation is to maybe just go into a store and try all the different mice, see which one fits best.

Yeah you'll be quite fine for now.

Personally I'd be going with an Intel CPU as the AMD upgrade path is pretty crap, especially since that chipset is pretty much dead. As for the PSU, I'm confident It'd work, but I'd really look to upgrade it anyway, as the VS series is pretty low end and 550watts is bare minimum imo.

It'll be fine with the 6300, at least for now. Sure there will be a bottleneck but only to a minimal amount (losing 5-10 fps compared to something like a 5960x), not the 20/30% less performance that I saw someone else saying. You're better off waiting until you can upgrade to Intel (getting a new mobo + cpu) as the 9590 is not a good CPU by any stretch of imagination.

Although there's going to be a different director, I'm very sure JJ would probably have a large influence on what happens in the movie and would probably get a producing role like George did in Empire Strikes Back.

telltale story mode looooooooooooool

I really didn't realize fnatic had the kind of money to just, acquire companies. Alrighty.

too much reading 5me

Yes but the consoles still have to make a profit, console buyers aren't going to pay another $300 for better hardware, and Microsoft and Sony have to make profit, so I really don't think a console will be able to run a VR setup with decent graphics, 1440p and run at 144fps (which is necessary for VR).
