  1. Is it not worth it to buy a 3070ti for $280 USD? I've found used 3080s to be a lot more expensive. Used prices for a 3070ti seem to be about $100 higher
  2. Yeah this is just in the test system I was going to bring. My main rig is a 12600k.
  3. Its an older EVGA one. My main PSU is a Seasonic 850w so no issue there, just that case is so large it would be a hassle to take it to test on a facebook deal.
  4. Hi all, Found what I think is a great deal on a FE 3070ti for $280USD on FB Marketplace. My test bench system has a 500w PSU and a 4770k. Obviously a 500W PSU isnt good long term but it should be fine to test the cards function right? Just gonna plug it in and make sure it outputs. Do I need to run 3DMark? Not sure that's necessary.
  5. Gotcha. Im at CES, anyone want to meet up?
  6. In town for CES, wondering if there is some sort of meetup either with LTT guys or just forum users.
  7. Hello all, Trying to see if anyone has any fiber cable kits and/or knows of any good ones. Need an about a 350 foot fiber cable with ST connectors on it. Need to see if I can pick up a kit and take a day to learn how to do it or if anyone has one or knows someone. Willing to pay for a plane ticket and hotel costs to help out with a job.
  8. I have been using 4x WD Blue 1 TB for the better part of 2+ years now. No issues yet. I have them in a raid array so if one does kick the fan its theoretically salvageable. Plus I took them from a Surveillance system our office had for a while. May not be smart, but it works for now
  9. I use the BM-800 or whatever the guy who got it from china calls it. https://www.amazon.co.uk/PC-Microphone-Professional-Condenser-Recording/dp/B074W3ZVGG/ref=sr_1_6?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1526346432&sr=1-6&keywords=microphone Its decent mine came with a stand and I run it via XLR into a small behinger mixer I have. Solid for about 50 USD
  10. Where did this board come from? New? used? Looks to be like other have said pulled up from the solder. How does it look on the back?
  11. I am not sure but for me at least I have only heard bad things of their production operations in China.
  12. reformat or disk mgmt, i usually connect my old drives to my test bench, go into disk management and just wipe the partition, then reassign the drive
  13. Banned for thinking all GIFs need to be 90s memes
  14. While I can't please everyone on the internet, but maybe this will please you. *Edited*
  15. Yeah I am not sure either. Its my brothers but I can confirm that it sucks this badly.
  16. Not sure, I never met him, never really followed him, but he was just one of those inspirational people everyone knew, like Elon Musk. But he did really make a name for himself, he will not be forgotten.
  17. Just saw this. I am crushed. Never knew him or followed his work, just one of those inspirational people of our time that has become and will be a household name. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2018/03/14/stephen-hawking-famed-physicist-dead-at-76.html http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-43396008 https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/stephen-hawking-dead-obituary_us_55e9fa97e4b03784e275e7c1 "Stephen Hawking died Wednesday after complications due to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a progressive neurodegenerative disease.

  18. Banned for not giving his general location as if he lived within the United States I could tell him that this was his problem too.
  19. Banned for pointing out that the place I live seems to be overrun with homeless issues but still allow illegals, because logic.
  20. Probably go to apple direct as IIRC its only 29$ due to their battery crisis
  21. Banned for thinking size matters.
  22. Thats probably what my PC looks like, because I stuck it in a rosewill server case in a rack in my room and haven't touched for like a year and a half
  23. Banned for not knowing that "ClueLess" is one word as "clueless" or not knowing how to capitalize properly.
