    Bummer was looking to get one for my wife and I and was hoping for some discount link/code.

    It looks like the thunderbolt is probably the easiest way. My MacBook uses it for the dongle with all their peripherals but my PC doesn't have something like that.
     
    Wish there was a more cost effective solution. I wonder if it's some sort of license fee that makes it cost so much

    Have you searched for thunderbolt docks?
    I have one and it's just so easy. Got three monitors, ethernet, mouse, kb, webcam and all that stuff running off it and all I have to do to switch laptops is remove the one cable and plug it into the other.
    You'll have to check if your MacBook has thunderbolt(it should), but most likely your PC won't. You'd need some PCIe card for that I think.

    +1, if your laptop easily supports them.

    Yeah that's good sign of a bottle neck. The 960 is a reasonably powerful card so it would most likely be a CPU bottle neck.

    Path of Exile should run on a potato.
    Run MSI Afterburner in the background and see what is using what, you'll get an idea of how much the CPU is being utilised and how much the GPU is being utilised. If the CPU is pegged at 100% and the GPU utilisation is much lower, then it's a good indicator of a CPU bottleneck.

    Remove the OC and see if the fps get worse. If they do then the CPU is showing its limits compared to what the GPU can do.

    The way I use to test if my CPU was bottle necking my GPU was to overclock the CPU by at least 400~500MHz and see if there was any noticeable fps gain. If yes I could assume the CPU wasn't letting the GPU go as fast as it was capable.

    Well the AMD FX series is pretty much dead. I did have an 8350 for a year, and damn, was it a beast. With a 960, it will work beautifully. Just remember to ALWAYS have an aftermarket cooler. Get at leaste a 240mm AIO. The stock cooler is shit and my 8350 used to idle at 60.

    powershell is better than CMD imho.
     
    also for switching drives use cd /d [Your Directory]

    - make sure it's not stolen 
    - check battery charge cycle 
    - run a benchmark to make sure everything works

    another option would be some sort of security camera software - while intended to be used with cameras, some have the ability to monitor the desktop instead of a camera.
     
    most of them can be set up to just stand by and watch silently and only become active when there is motion detected in the camera image (or your desktop in that case) then they can do things like take snapshots of whatever happens or even send you a notification of some sort (email, sms, etc) often including a picture of what exactly triggered the action.
     
    and some of them are free AND easy to set up.

    If its having to transfer alot of small files, which at 10.4gb for 10500 files it seems like they are, it can slow down quite a lot compared to larger files.

    benga reacted to AkiraDaarkst in Why does the Rode PSA1 not drop in price?   
    You don't need something this expensive.  The screw thread for attaching mic holders is basically standard regardless of the brand.  Just buy any mic arm you can afford and that has a good rating.
     
    The Rode is probably pricey like this due to manufacturing costs and brand name.

    Youre paranoid bro, it was probably just a motherboard beep or something and anytime you force shut down it'll give you like 30 seconds to do that repair view stuff. 
    I don't know about the drops though could be drivers and stuff maybe
