    1. Different quality of components, power delivery, overclocking capability, etc.
     
    B450 Tomahawk MAX is your best option for a well priced, well performing board
     
    2. D15 is a good alternative
     
    3. I'm a fan of the meshify c mini 
     
    4. Never gone wrong with Corsair's LPX, but in reality just get anything that's 3000mhz +

    Bluuz reacted to Suika in tips for getting into my first fps and posture   
    1) My arm lays on my arm rest until I play Genji, where I'm required to turn more quickly but don't want to raise my DPI/sensitivity. I aim almost entirely with my wrist.
    2) My sensitivity is 2.75 at a DPI of 6600, and I'd recommend moving towards more DPI and lower sensitivity. The reason for an insanely high DPI vs sensitivity comes down to something known as pixel skipping. Basically, if your sensitivity is too high, rather than moving your mouse more quickly, Overwatch will skip over pixels instead. If you're playing more mechanical skill based heroes, it can mess up some of your shots (McCree and Widowmaker come to mind). Here's a great tool to figure out if you're pixel skipping (you probably are), if the box where your resolution is at is red, you're pixel skipping. Blue means you're good.
    3) Aiming with your arm is easier to learn, but aiming with your wrist offers a faster reaction time at a greater risk. Unless you have the muscle memory learned over a decade or more, I would recommend learning to aim with your arm. To put aiming with the wrist in perspective, it's been how I've aimed for nearly 7 years now, and my accuracy is subpar for my competitive rank (I compensate with game sense).
     
    At least with Overwatch, you don't need to be mechanically skilled to be good at the game, instead you can focus on learning game sense and communication. A popular player known as EeveeA managed to climb to top 500 on 3 accounts playing only Mercy.

    Bluuz reacted to Rohith_Kumar_Sp in The Most Ridiculous Skyrim Mods People Are Trying To Sell On Steam   
    This is basically Horse Armour from steam. what did you expect ?, it attracts more people to quit other sites who offer mods and jump onboard to steam . and why does steam have the authority to take 75% of the cut ? it's not even their game. they are taking a cut for absolutely doing nothing .

    Since Valve enabled users to charge money for mods on Steam, people have uploaded all sorts of wild things onto the Steam Workshop. Some are serious. Some are jokes. And some are actively taking a jab at Valve for having the ‘gall’ to do something like this.



    ome of the most absurd things I found on the workshop. Note that not all of these have necessarily been approved yet, and very well may disappear from the workshop by the time you read this. This $99 horse genitals mod, for example, is now gone. So is the $100 Gabe Newell genitals mod. No surprises there, eh?

    Golden Potato Mod, $9.99



     
    This downloadable expansion for the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim adds a unique and extraordinary item to the game: the Golden Potato. Found sitting upon the well in the heart of Whiterun, the Golden Potato adds a unique experience to the Skyrim gameplay. It’s a collectible, a food item, a potato, and golden! The Golden Potato mod is the true Elder Scrolls experience you’ve never had! Join the elite club of Golden Potato owners today.
     
    Extra Apple Mod, $29.99


     

    Have you ever walked into the Bannered Mare and thought to yourself: “Man, this place could use an extra apple.”? Well, worry no longer! “Extra Apple” adds another apple to the counter in the Bannered Mare.


    Micro Transactions, $49.99



     
    Do you not have much time? Or you do you just want to get through the game as quick as possible? Well, you’re in damned luck! I’m introducing, micro transactions! An easy way to get any item as long as you work for it! All the money goes straight to charity, me!

    Chicken Companion, $0.49



    The mod adds a chicken companion wearing a helmet and backpack to the game. He can be found standing in front of High Hrothgar. The chicken counts as an animal follower, can be used with a normal human follower and does not effect stealth.

    Steam Main Menu Replacer, $0.49


     
    To celebrate paid mods on steam, here’s a brand new main menu screen, with a steam theme!
     
    Rubbish! $2.49


     
    This mod adds rubbish to skyrim.
     
    Epic Helgen Bear Overhaul, $99.99
     

     
    Makes the bear in the Helgen Keep caves much larger, resulting in a more challenging, realistic, dramatic, immersive and lore-friendly final battle.

    Kill Jerlov, $0.25
     

     
    This mod allows you to kill Jerlov, the quest giver NPC that is normally invulnerable in Jimo’s $0.50 USD “Lambda Locator” mod.

    ASUS dvd thing for all your media PC needs
    Platinum PSU for maximum efficiency
    GTX 750ti for best price/performance
    Noctua cooler for near-silent operation 
    H97 because you probably aren't OCing

    <<Later in the call, Bartell said that $22 is "clearly an unsustainable price point for a game that physically is at $60.">>
     
    He forgot to mention that a $60 physical game gives the devs just about as much money as the digital copy,if not less sometimes.
     
    I remember an interview with a game dev remaking a game from 1995-2000.He said that he had to sell physical copies with $50-60 and that they would only get around $20 from each one.Now they're selling digital copies of the new game for $20 .
