Because of Fallout: New Vegas, you run so fucking slowly in that game by default it is unacceptable.
 
After weeks (ok months) of feverishly losing myself in Fallout 3, it was NV launch day, me and my friend are going to the store on our lunch break, both of us have ordered the collectors edition and are excited, I had ordered the Xbox 360 version, and he had ordered the PC version.
In the car afterward while we were digging in our long game boxes for poker chips and steelboxes and shit, the subject of the slow running came up and he revealed to me the wonderment of modification that can happen with fallout games, and that he had spent his many hours in Fallout 3 with a more sprightly step, while I had wallowed in sludgy misery all the while...
 
I thought I could endure knowing this information and continue playing it on Xbox, I couldn't and ended up buying it on Steam, but alas my PC had an E5200 (a pair of Pentium 4s, and an idiot's choice over AMD's offering at the time) and an ATi 4850 which struggled to play the game. Balls.
 
I, with the help of my friend initially, did some research and created a shopping list, bought the parts, built a Sandy Bridge system with a GTX 285 inside and the resulting orgasmatron megadeluxe PC masterrace masturbatathon while running at whatever speed I fucking well pleased at the behest of a couple of simple console commands ensured that I was from then on hooked.
 
I found Linus among other tech reviewers, I began caring about hardware, I bought all my games that had PC version again on PC and started to bask in their new found magnificence. PC gaming is now an integral part of my life and I am very keen on technology as a whole, building my rig sparked a fire that can never die and my interest and knowledge has ballooned ever since.
 
TLDR I owe my nerd card to some guy at bethesda who thought it was okay to make you run super slow in Fallout, which it bloody well isn't.

Gangnam style recently reached the integer limit for the number of views to be counted on YouTube, soon LTT forums is going to face a similar issue except for threads about Ubisoft.

brb, forgot my crystal ball in my closet

Be excited to see the jonnyguru review

Thanks, yours too from what I've smelled

Gone in 60 seconds was better.

Overall quality has been good but they have their fare share of issues. They've even destroyed a small amount of GPUs with their drivers; which is the worst thing to happen in the history of graphics drivers.
 
Both sides seem to have occasional issues.

In my experience AMD windows drivers have been a bit better than Nvidia. But truth be told both sides have good drivers now.
 
Don't believe all the fanboy bs. I have a R9 290 on Windows 10, two of my friends have 280x on WIndows 7 and 7870 on windows 7 respectively. At the moment we are all gaming without a problem. Both sides have good drivers with occasional problems.
There was a time years ago when AMD's windows driver wasn't as good as Nvidia. A lot of people are still living in that time and whenever there is the slightest issue with AMD they hark back to that and try to pretend that "AMD drivers suck" etc... Whereas Nvida also has lots of issues as we see complaints everyday all over the Internet but most people treat those as the individual problems they are rather than making silly claims like "Nvidia drivers suck" etc. Their marketing is so good that even when Nvidia takes years to get something like HDMI working properly people won't really be hard on them.
 
btw I say this as somebody who is very critical of AMD's linux performance. So I am not a blind fanboy.

one driver is for nvidia cards and one is for amd cards, i dont quite see what youre not understanding.

This is a thread about cars. If you are not into that then the door is on the right. 'tis also in off topic.
 
It's finally here. The long awaited and often discussed car thread.
Welcome to the Garage. Pull up a chair and have a cold beverage as we discuss cars

 
It's time to get this thing going! It's been talked about many times in various threads and it's time to git'r done
 
Rules:
Anyone that's interested in cars can join. 
All you need to do is click the follow button. 
 
Fanboying is looked down upon.
Car guys respect other car guys. If you are into Americana,Japanese cars or european cars or anything in between you are welcome
And respect other peoples opinion. I do not like the 2JZ. You might. And there is nothing wrong with that
Blatantly bashing any cars from a certain market. Be it american cars,Japanese cars or european cars. without basis is dumb. And should not be done in this thread.
This is mostly because it's tiresome to read through and can start an argument. Debate is fine. Arguments are just a waste of time.
 
Do not bash another guys car.
Because it's a dick move. And being a dick is against the CoC (harharhar)
 
Respectfully disagreeing is alright. Intentionally bashing something to bait people is not.
Word your opinions properly and bring up fair points or explain your problems with a certain thing clearly.
 
Can i talk about TRAINS!?
No WinNut. No you cannot. No
 
If you quote someone with a picture in their post. Snip the picture. 
The car might be nice but we don't need to see it twice^^ 
 
Bae means shit. For the love of god.. stop 
 
Get stuck in. Get as technical as you want to get. Ask questions and get answers, Post nice cars (Don't post too many pictures though)
Entertain us with car trivia or tell a funny car related story.
 
Illegal activities are frowned upon.
Endangering other peoples (or your own) lives is not cool in any way. All it does is put you on a list of darwin award nominees.

By posting in this thread you agree that the manual transmission is overrated and should be banned outright. 

So rather than just try it again, you posted this topic?
 
Go try it again.

Turn on the radio, any station will do then simply await further instructions.

those arent my pictures. i have that gunk stuck on mine after you rest your fingers in those spots for a long time. 

Seeing as the admins are over the age of 12 I'm going to hazard a guess that they don't want a subforum for the discussion of children's cartoons on their tech forum.

Buuuut there is a website that's rather kickass, so perhaps google might help you.

Quickly buy Rise of Nations before it disappears from yesterday's deals on Steam, it's extremely good and cheap right now.

Sleeping dogs is a great game and much better than Watch Dogs in terms of gameplay story and location IMHO, it's also a great PC port unlike Watch Dogs.

Fast TN monitor with no backlight flicker (PWM) that's great for playing fast paced PC games.
 
If you don't do any colour sensitive work on your PC it's a solid choice.
