    lishde reacted to AlTech in Loot Box Regulation Bill Introduced by Washington Senator   
    A Washington Senator is introducing a new Lootbox Regulation bill to investigate Loot Boxes and the ramifications and come to a conslusion as to whether Loot Boxes are gambling or not.
     
     
     
    The bill stipulates that the Study must conclude before December 1st 2018. It only applies to Washington State.
     
    If the bill finds Loot Box mechanics to be considered gambling, games and apps featuring them will not be allowed to be sold to minors (people under the age of 21) in the state of Washington. This bill is currently aimed at investigating them to better understand them and to determine whether they are gambling or not.
     
    I like the idea of having an investigation before they come to a conclusion but I know my posiiton on the matter already. Loot Boxes are predatory and are exploiting people through gambling mechanics.

    lishde got a reaction from johnukguy in gtx 1060 3gb or 1060 6gb   
    The 6gb version is also around 11% stronger ,street guru were I live a 570 costs the same as a 6gb 1060 and is a weaker and hotter card with worse drivers. Rocky I would recomend the 6gb card if it is in your price range but I use a 3gb card and have not had any problems with vram so far but if you are keeping it for more then 2 years it may be a huge benefit down the line.

    There's really no benefit to buying it through Steam. It still needs to be installed and launched and managed through uPlay, just you have to go through more steps to do it.

    1050ti uses a 128bit bus ? You can bet it's not using power for memory . Memory power only starts to get significant with high clocked 256 bit and wider.

    lishde reacted to bowrilla in "Skylake safe" cooler could damage Sky-, Kaby and Coffee Lake CPUs   
    Two years after the initial issues regarding mounting pressures of big air coolers with the then new Sky Lake CPUs the issues celebrate a revival as it seems.
     
    German tech magazine "PC Games Hardware" reported a serious issue with Skylake system that's just over two years old and was assembled by German blogger Bjoern Olausson. Equipped with an i7 6700k and the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3 died a mysterious death – mysterious until the "autopsy" revealed serious deformations on the CPU's substrate. Olausson reported that his system has never been moved around and was therefore never exposed to sudden movements
     
    PC Games Hardware published further tests unrelated to that specific incident in their July and September issues and published a mounting force table (see original article at PC Games Hardware). Test results revealed that most coolers exceeded Intel's specs for static mounting forces (222 N) by quite a margin (maxium value of still produced cooler was 540 N) though Intel's limit for dynamic forces as in sudden shocks and other momentary spikes was not exceeded (712N). The Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3 was measured with a mounting force of 380 N.

    The question remains if the excessive mounting forces of large air cooler are or at least can still be an issue. Interesting enough: even some AiO might exceed Intel's spec of static mounting forces (i.e. Cooler Master Master Liquid 240 with ~240 N). Maybe the issue is not fully resolved and large air coolers might still damage CPUs in the long run which could be an issue regarding RMA requests as well.
     
    For copyright reasons I'll only link to Bjoern Olausson's page. The damage is obvious.

    The 660Ti was a great card I knew a guy that I believe still uses one to this day but it's not a card that's going to be pushing any boundaries anymore. You'd be better off with the GTX 1050Ti now. Or... look into a used GTX 970. I sold mine for $132 dollars. It had a broken fan though and needed a replacement asap.

    lishde reacted to WereCat in RX Vega 64 w/ FreeSync VS 1080TI w/o GSync   
    1.) There is no point in getting Vega 64 when Vega 56 performs almost identically
    2.) GTX 1080ti is quite a bit better for 1440p 144Hz but is more expensive
    3.) If you are on lower budget then definitely Vega 56 + Free-Sync makes a lot of sense but if you can go for it then 1080 ti + G-Sync will give you quite a bit better experience, whether it is something you can throw your money on, that's up to you to decide
     
    EDIT:
    4.) If you already have the Free-Sync monitor, then Vega 56 makes a lot more sense for the money but if you plan on getting another monitor anyway... well, if you will pick G-Sync with 1080 ti it sure will work as well.

    lishde reacted to reniat in About what quarter to expect 2080TI Volta?   
    time between 780 and 780ti: 6 months
    time between 980 and 980ti: 8 months
    time between 1080 and 1080ti: 9 months
     
    Even if volta happens Q1 2018, I would expect the next ti card to happen no sooner than Q3. If i had to bet money, I would put the next ti card coming out late Q4 or even Q1 2019, just because i don't think volta is as close as we think. Since Vega didn't really do much to compete with the flagship level cards (doesn't even beat the 1080), Nvidia has no pressure to release volta anytime soon. Instead they just release their new 1070ti card and let the 10 series continue for a bit longer since they still hold a dominant place in the high end card market. If people are still buying 10 series, and vega didn't do much to hurt their position, it doesn't benefit them to rush out volta.
