    This is why you should wait for the 1060:
     
     
     
    On the other hand, if you plan on cooking and play video games at the same time, the RX 480 is an excellent option.

    buy the rx 480 because it is not so power hungry as the r9 290 and the direktx 12 compatibility is mutch better on the new Polaris Cards.
     
  8. Agree
    c00face reacted to Morgan MLGman in RX480 vs R9 290   
    The RX 470 is rumoured to be at the R9 290 level of performance. "5% behind a GTX 970" for 150$(?). RX 480 will be faster for sure.
  9. Agree
    c00face reacted to Herman Mcpootis in RX480 vs R9 290   
    the 480 will be at r9 fury/gtx 980's performance level while the the rx 470 will be at the 290's performance level.

    c00face reacted to AresKrieger in RX480 vs R9 290   
    We don't actually know how well the 480 performs, but it's certainly better than a 290 but by how much I have no clue. Just wait for the 480 nda lift/release and compare (though the 480 will likely be the better bet imo)

    c00face reacted to Unhelpful in RX480 vs R9 290   
    Wait and see. Ignore anybody who tells you that the 480 will perform like a Nano, or a 390, or a 370 because hurr dee durr  AMD sux /s. We need to wait for benchmarks. I'm expecting a bit above 390 performance on average, but I'm not an AMD employee.

    I'm not a "successful" Youtuber (only about 230k views total, and only 240 subs). The key is to find something that really interests you, and just start doing it. You'll slowly learn to get better at editing, and knowing what people want to see, and what type of content you like to make. Just start doing it, there's no consequence of failing, you just learn from it.
    Here's my channel (link removed by mod request, there's a link in my profile if you're actually interested) if you're interested in looking at it at all. It's not gaming or tech related though, mostly skiing and mountain biking.

    If you see on reddit or any subforums or forum where a post was made and many people are offended by it. Don't be that guy who attack the OP with 20 other users on his throat. That shit pisses me off more than anything to see people gang up on another person, even if he was wrong. It's the most unconsiderate act I see day in and out. Not only is it on the forums and online, it's in real life. Just think about it, you wouldn't beat someone to a pulp with 20 other people on one person in real life, why do it online? Words have power and they carry strong meaning, it doesn't exclude online typing.
     
    Have some dignity, and learn to not get easily offended over every spill milk. And you don't always have to respond to every person, because half the time when you do, most of you just use your feelings to dictate the conversation in violent, crying mode, and stupidity.

    c00face got a reaction from Sir Asvald in Just finding some love   
    I lost faith in humanity. To understand me, please don't quick to judge.
     
    You see, I was that person who spent his whole life helping others. I dedicated my life to serve and to help the homeless, the poor, the needy. I gave up everything to fulfill the mission I wanted to do. When I was younger, my father use to make us chop wood, work labor, and we had demanding chores. My family wasn't perfect, but we stay in intact, even though we were poor. I wore the same clothes to school everyday, and I would stink, and other children would make fun of me constantly. All the way to highschool this has lasted me. Not until graduation day and college, I started to take care of myself. I had nice clothes for the first time, I didn't stink, I shaved, looked. And I kid you not, most girls started loving me. But I hated that. I hated how someone could judge you, laugh at you, and when you start to look like them, they love you?
     
    Back to the topic, as I am now 27 years old. I find myself losing hope in humanity. What I mean is, I've never seen a generation so disregarding, disrespectful, disobedient, unkind, unloving, no compassion, etc... This is the generation we're living in. Countless times I hear on the news about ignorant self righteous people demanding justice on a criminal. But yet, they fail to realize they are just as worst as he is. But they demand the death penalty, they demand persecution, and execution? Listen to me, who are we, to cast judgment on someone else, or to demand repercussion for some one else action when you're just the same?
     
    Stop looking at someone else fault, their downfall, what they've down, and start looking at the heart of the matter. Sometimes, those people, are suffering, they're hurt, and they do things out of the ordinary because all they wanted was love. But instead of giving them a heart warming love, you give them a spit to the face, you demand a fork be stuck up his gut, and to feel the full wraith of your own self righteousness?
     
    This is the generation we live in. We live in a heartless generation without compassion. Hear me out here. Even though I chew this generation out, I am sadden about this. I'm sadden that so many young people are lacking wisdom and knowledge and understanding. Stop being hyprocrits and start looking at your own eye and at your own faults. Have a heart, have compassion, taking care of others. Love on people, even if they mess up. How would you feel if you were chewed out constantly, you became angry, and you did something wrong. But yet, people demanded your head on the platter? How cruel.
     
    This is just my rant, and my heart. Out of my life, I can tell you... We are going towards a future that is depraved of love and compassion. I just hope someone take this letter, and take it for themselves not to be that person who is lacking in this area. Lets stop chewing out people for wrong things they've done, and lets start understanding why he's doing it, and having empathy for one another.

    I fully agree with you and I find myself in some parts of what you've written. I've gotten more cynical and angrier on society in the past years, a few of which have been quite troublesome (most recently I've found that my fiance was cheating on me with my best friend, of all people, whom is still married. Now they're both in London screwing eachothers brains out while telling everyone they left to live a "better life" and to "start over").
    I've stopped caring about people around me and I finally decided it's time to take care of myself. I can safely say that I have no real friends (except for a handful of people) nor do I need any friends. While I can not completely sever the ties to my family just yet, I am on the path of becoming self-sufficient, which is best for now.
    I am unsure, however, of what the future holds, but I firmly believe that we are the masters of our own lives and that the future is not set in concrete. Even a minor change in one's life can influence the future for better or for worse.
     
    I fill my time with games and trying to share my knowledge and experiences around here and through other mediums. I try to ignore the bad things from my past, but most of them will haunt me to some degree throughout my entire life, which I accept and I have learned from my mistakes. That's the least I can do to get myself where I want to. While I may be living on a day to day basis right now, this isn't optimal and I've just recently realized that I was on a clear path to self-destruction. I've found shelter in things that have taken their toll on both my body and my mind to the extent that I can safely and surely say that I am damaged. Nevertheless, every dent, scratch and bruise can be healed, but there will still be scars that will remind me of my fuckups and give me the mental strength to plow on through life while taking care of who matters; myself.
     
    My generation and those following it are doomed, but I do believe that they can change, once they start thinking more maturely. That WILL take time and alot of effort.
    I'm old enough to call people born in the mid-90's and later kids, and these kids need to grow up sooner or later. Unfortunately there are certain influential factors that we can't ignore and that have become part of their molding process. While social media isn't a bad thing itself, kids these days have become molded by it and now lack skills that are essential in their lives. While I don't expect anyone to have the knowledge or skills I've gained from (what I now realize is) good parenting (although I may have disagreed with the methods my parents used), the problem is that every kiddie tantrum is met with parents that cave in and satisfy things that kids want, but don't necessarily need. I may have been a fortunate case, but there are a billion and one factors that influenced what I wanted, what I needed and what I got.
     
    I wanted to get into electronics from an early age, not because my father was into it as both a hobby and a source of income, but because it fascinated me. Since my dad has owned a service business ever since the early 90s, it was easy for me. Then I got into computers and those were batshit expensive, but I eventually had enough money (that I earned by myself by helping my dad) and through people my father knew, I was able to satisfy my desire to further expand my knowledge of computers, on both a hardware and software level. That doesn't mean that I was held up in my house all day long. No. Quite the contrary. I'd spend countless days and weeks hiking, exploring, learning things that one day might prove to be useful. Hell, with what I know I can easily survive a zombie apocalypse. Kids these days don't even know how to start a fire without a match or a lighter...
     
    Nevertheless, this post is getting to rant-levels and I may be going off-topic, but that might just be the overdose of coffee I just had.

    Incorrect! The reason why you don't have Windows 10 upgrade is because either:
    1- Your system is evaluated to be not Windows 10 ready YET. (Waiting for drivers). And those that forces are the ones that encounter problems, and blame on Microsoft, even thought Microsoft warned them in advance and they decide to ignore
    2- You are on a different wave. So yea, sure you can force upgrade if you want.
    Also, what you indicated was covered countless times on Windows 10 thread on this forum. Just for you to know.

    If you are seeing the message, "Failed to upgrade to Windows 10..." more than likely your file has been corrupted, and it can't upgrade. Or, if you recently just joined the Windows 10 notification club, your files aren't done downloading.
     
    To fix the error for corrupted files, you have restart the download.
     
    Run > type "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download" enter > delete everything in the Download folder
     
    Run> type "CMD" > run as administrator > type "wuauclt.exe /updatenow"
     
    It'll redownload Windows 10, and hopefully it won't be corrupted this time. The file for me is about 2.7 GB worth of download. Only took about 2-5 minutes to complete.
