    Jumals got a reaction from Tim Drake in Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain - Impressions topic   
    If you aren't MGS fan, then it's hard to get hooked from the start.
    As I'm huge fan of MGS, I was hooked right from the first cutscene.
     
    I'm also like that, if the game doesn't feel good from the beginning, the chances are very low that I'd keep playing.

    Jumals reacted to omniomi in Windows 10 - Free way for MS to spy on you?   
    Most of the data collected is anonymous usage statistics and error reporting which has existed in Windows for as long as I can remember and I'm old. It's also optional. Beyond that there's some different stuff:
     
    Location Data: If you want Cortana to be able to give you relevant information to your location you need this to be turned on... It can also be provided to apps so their experience can be tailored... Automatically spelling something colour instead of color if you're outside the US for example. News flash: every website you visit already knows your location unless you use a VPN or a proxy. Even if you turn off location services in your browser a website can make a decent guess based on your IP/ISP.... 09-29n3-n883.seattle.comcast-internet.com <- Hmm, wonder where this (imaginary) person lives. See here: http://mylocation.org/ - The location settings in Windows just determine if apps/Windows has permission to do what websites do anyway. Typed phrases / email / etc for better prediction: This is part of Cortana and the soft keyboard if you use touch. It lets Windows read stuff you write and have written to learn how you talk to better predict what you'll type next. Most of the people bitching about this one probably had no problem turning the exact same thing on inside SwiftKey on Andorid or agreeing to it in the Samsung Galaxy EULA because their keyboard does this too... But MS is evil right guys? Better Cortana results: You can let Microsoft track how you search to give you better results. Guess what, Google is already doing this to you when you use Google. When you Google search "homoeopathy" whether the top results are about hows it's bullshit or how it's the best thing ever depend on your search habbits... Same shit, different service.  OneDrive: If you store stuff on OneDrive Microsoft can see it... duh? If you store stuff on Dropbox, Dropbox can see it...  if you fill out your Outlook profile Microsoft has that information... again... duh? Shared WiFi Passwords with Friends: If this is turned on you can OPTIONALLY share passwords to networks you frequent (on a one by one selectable basis) with friends in your contact list. One toggle turns this feature off but while it's on it doesn't just send your WiFi passwords to everyone you have to tell it to share the password for a given network. The EULA is scary: Have you ever read an EULA before? Nothing is really different with the Windows EULA now but because of all the online content it contains verbiage from the Outlook EULA, the XBox EULA, the Bing EULA, and so on that you've probably already agreed to elsewhere anyway. Windows can now just do things you used to have to go to the websites to do. There are 1.25 billion Windows PCs running today... No one is sitting down and looking at this data and going "Oh look, Bob searched for D-Cup Titties on Google Images again but his wife shops for A-Cup bras on Amazon..." They reserve the right to aggrigate data though so someone in the Cortana department could conceivably see "It looks like the mid-west uses Cortana for restaurant recommendations 25% more often than the east coast." They don't care about your individual habits. Any non anonymous tracking is just to provide a better service which is something Google, Bing, Android, Apple/Siri, and so on are all doing already. People need to take their damn tin foil hats off / stop trolling. If you're concerned crank up your privacy settings but no one is creating a dossier on you and if the feds wanted any of that info about you they'll get it even if that means a warrant where they physically take the computer because you were too paranoid to connect it to the internet. 
     
    It's always weird... People will be like "I don't want Microsoft to know my personal information" and then turn around and buy something from the Microsoft store and fill out their billing address and credit card info. Uhm... You just gave them your personal information? Or they don't want Microsoft to know their search habbits but it's fine if Google knows even though Google is where you search for your "octo porn" and Cortana is where you search for "Control Panel."

    Jumals got a reaction from savaGe_ in Is the 980 ti worth   
    It's pretty pointless on 1080p, sure all games max out without issues but half of the time the 980Ti doesn't use its full power, almost never you can get it up to 100% gpu usage with 1080p resolution so if you think about it, you're just paying a lot of extra money.

    But if you bump up to 1440p, it's a damn good card, it really shines on that resolution.

    You're trying far too hard. And that isn't hacking. 99% of the Hack clients make you go in and out of Passive mode so they're going Opaque and not.
     
    Hacking can't be reported. I've told you this before. It's not worth it. Just go somewhere else or Hack as well. Rockstar literally DOES NOT CARE if you hack.

    A bit of the way down, there is a site listed that tests and rates popular antivirus. I have not used the McAfee - but there are other which are free that are known to work decently. 
     
    +1 on having both an AV and AntiMalware like malwarebytes.

    Are we playing the same game? This has to be the RPG with the least repetitive side quests, and I found the monsters and lore behind them really interesting and compelling, compared to run of the mill foes in other games.

    55 hours only for a story is damn good, show me another game which can do that without being boring as hell.
    The Witcher 3 easily has solid content for 100-150 hours.
    Idk who said that they story would last 200 hours because the devs promised 50 hour storyline.

    Yeah 7 might be a bit too much indeed.
    But that sounds pretty good, i'll be checking out the tempratures and see how will it do. (Soon as I get the case mlol).
     
    E: Define R5 case has much better airflow than in my current cheap case, I'm sure that I'll notice a difference in the temps and noise.
     
    Besides I love that you can remove the HDD drive mounts completely and that there is SSD mounts at the back, brilliant.

    yes of course you would...unless adding more fans means running them at much lower RPM's and still get good airflow...5 might be a bit much as you would end up with 7 fans total? right?
    i would go with two intake fans on the front and 2 or 3 exaust (one at the back and two at the top) and then control their speed so that they don't get above 60% RPM's or so...under full load...and spin as slow as possible when idle. (that's what i have in my case, 2x140mm intake fans, 1x 120mm. exaust fan at the rear and 2x120mm fans on CPU radiator on top of the case serving as exaust...you shouldnt need more than that to keep everything nice and cool and quiet.

    Okay so, I used these settings with few exceptions:
     
    MSAA X4, reflections X4, Grass quality to normal, other than that, I used the same settings and it helped a lot, sure there are still some dips to 70-80% sometimes but the bigger drops are gone.
     
    Sure my fps dropped a bit because I'm using heavier settings than before but I'm still staying at 60fps when driving and when on foot, the fps is higher.
    So thanks for sharing your settings, it helped at least a little bit!

    Graphics cards have so many protectionlimits these days, you can basically just try until it fails. Only things you have to be a little careful with is memory and voltageincrease, but even those probably cause a drivercrash before it physically damages.

    After talking with benQ warranty section, they said that they'll take the monitor in and send me a new one, they'll inspect the monitor incase there is any physical damage (if there is they might charge me for it)
    But there isn't any damage on the monitor, only those buttons which doesn't work.
    Also they said that the delivery service FedEx will pick up the monitor from me and take it to the manufacturer.
    So that's good, I'll just take proofs of the monitor that there is no physical damage before shipping.
    So thanks for trying to help me out with this one but I think everything will be fine.
