  1. He's not on the "Our Team" tab of the LMG website. He might be temporary for helping to move in. I don't know anything, just speculating.
  2. I just need decent portability, silence, performance, and battery. The Macbook Air seems to be king at the moment. Basically all other computers out of Apple are terrible though.
  3. Thanks for the advice. I've already decided that the 11" Macbook Air best suits my needs.
  4. I am divided over which tech I should invest in next. Should I pick up a 980 Ti to replace my 980, a H110i GTX to replace my Dark Rock 3 and a Maximus VII Formula to replace my MSI Z97 Gaming 7 or a used 11" Macbook Air? I am very torn and would love some advice. Edit: Forgot which motherboard I have ;P

  6. I was just looking for some suggestions, I might put the money towards another 980 instead
  7. Hello, I already have an HTC One M8 but I received enough money for my birthday to buy another phone and "dual-wield" two phones, switching out my SIM. Which secondary phone should I get? Phones I have interest in: Note 4 Moto X 2014 iPhone 6 Nexus 6
  8. You're going to need a new motherboard, I recommend the Asus Z97I-Plus, MSI Z97I-Gaming AC or the Gigabyte Z97N-WIFI
  9. My advice: Motherboard: I don't know which Z97S SLI is the one you were referring to, but get the Krait Edition. It has a black PCB and some more enthusiast-oriented features PSU: Make sure to get the G2 version of the EVGA Supernova. The G1 versions are very loud if you find that offensive. Case: In this kind of a price range, get the Phanteks Enthoo Pro, the NZXT S340 or the Cooler Master N600. If you want to step up a bit, get a 450D or a 750D for an even more balls to the wall case.
  10. Do not get rid of that old titan. You probably will lose quite a bit of money. You can get another one used for $625 right here.

  12. I think I have a pretty good 4k rig that comes with about $60 of your budget with a monitor.

  14. $1,950 wasn't too easy to reach with the build I had in mind. So, this build has high-performance quad-channel memory, one of the best gaming motherboards in existence, with a matching green and black color scheme, a fourth-gen unlocked i7 processor cooled by a liquid cooler that beats the H100i, a GTX 780 Ti from Asus with an excellent cooler design, relatively good storage with 250gb of ssd space and a 2tb hard drive, alongside a fully-modular 80+ Platinum PSU, Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit and, last but not least, a mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Black switches. Enjoy!
  15. This build has a Haswell i5, SSD, 8 gigs of ram, an 80+ gold fully modular psu and, best of all, I was able to squeeze a 780 ti in there for only about $1,030
