    PaulKolby got a reaction from Enderman in Why Linus is wrong (another macbook topic)   
    i think apple is actually doing a good thing, even though the product isn't necessarily practical today, the macbook pro is cutting edge in the sense that 4 usb-type c ports is the future of a laptop. In the future, there will be pc laptops like this. Hell, hp has the new thin spectre which only has three usb type c ports. So, it isnt practical now but you cannot deny it is the future and it isnt a terrible thing.

    i literally bought that psu on newegg cause it was on sale for $20 and then i saw all the reviews and i immediately returned it
    one of the reviews said he gave it three stars cause it looked cool like a firecracker when it blew up on him

    PaulKolby got a reaction from minibois in I Just Got An Amazing Deal   
    So, i noticed a garage sale near where i live and i thought i would stop to see if they had anything good for sale and i found this pc. It was listed for $50 and i bargained them down to $40 because it didnt have ram or a hard drive. It's specs are pretty insane for the price.
     
    Specs:
    Generic case not that high quality
    Amd Phenom x6 1055t processor 6 cores
    no ram
    nice gigabyte motherboard of the time
    ati hd 5770
    cooler master 650w 80 plus power supply
    no storage
     
    But, i was amazed to get alll this working hardware for $40 
     
    P.S. i have since the picture fixed the cable management

    i would go with the one with th gtx 1080 and the 6900k because you get improved cpu and gpu pefomance by quite a bit.

    While i am personally hail from the green team i do really hope that AMD steps up and gives Intel and Nvidia a good run for their money, nothing is better for consumers than healthy competition.

    Yeah, but they refunded you, correct?  If so there's no real risk in trying, save a few dollars for a few days.

    PaulKolby reacted to typographie in how do pcie lanes work exactly?   
    Here's Intel's block diagram for the Z77 platform. It shows the CPU provides 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes which will be used for graphics, and the chipset provides 8 additional PCIe 2.0 lanes.
     
    So yes, you should be able to install a wireless card without cutting into the lanes used by the graphics card.
