Hey guys, in light of the recent ISP slowing our internet, a video was posted about netflix and a VPN. "Viper VPN" is what was used, but I know nothing about networking so could someone please explain the pros/cons of a VPN? Also is it really worth $7 a month? Edit: Also! This could be a great techquickie video, wink wink

Swapped swapped and swapped!

Swapped for the 650, thanks!

Hey guys, I planed a computer on PC part picker using Jayztwocents, Linus', and Austins youtube videos. Hope fully the overall price will drop below $1000 for Christmas and Thanksgiving, I will more than likely start buying the parts then. Anyway here is the link to pc part picker: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/JustinAngers/saved/#savedbuild_1318481 I want to note that the PC Part Picker I put together includes the monitor, keyboard, OS, and I budgeted $100 for buying games.

Yeah I can play games, but I rather play simulators like FSX and DCS. And my laptop doesn't run either above ~15 FPS on low

They ordered it from best buy online. I came home one day from football and they surprised me with it. It was a bitter sweet moment.

Toshiba P750D Satellite AMD A6 APU cpu @ 1.50ghz apu @400 hz 8 gbs ram Sorry for the confusion, this is my most powerful laptop i ever had, which is why i call it a gaming laptop. I just started looking into buying a PC which is how I found Linus. I have been watching his, Jayztwocents, barnacles, basically people who teach about tech stuff. Actually how I bought my laptop is a funny story, (still in school mind you) I asked my parents if I could get a part time job somewhere to buy a better laptop for myself when I has 14, but being 14 I couldn't get a job. So I did 30 of cleaning our house about ever other day and they paid me $8 for every hour I cleaned. haha I built up something like 100 hours and then my parents bought me the wrong laptop

Hey guys, I am new to the forum, so I don't have that high post count like you are looking for. But I do have low specs! I have been laptop gaming for years now. Never had the surplus to get a nice computer.

I am saving up for my first build, this giveaway would really help me!
