Fuck pewdiepie. Annoying ass person and only 12 year olds who like someone yelling rape in their mic over and over subscribe to him.

What YOU need good sire is a NAS storage, not to transplant your entire PC to a different case but to get a small external enclosure for network storage that you can pump full of HDDs. Maybe use a RAID setup for redundancy or speed.

Corsair RGB keyboards.

Most of the flagship phones?

Let us know when their is any web development, we are very interested.

Sure.  Make sure to set your GPUs to mining some form of cryptocurrency to keep them warm through the cold nights as well.

The average owner of a 1.7m-3m USD car is really fuckin rich. Who knew

Grown Ups 2, there was no plot to the movie, they just kind of did whatever nothing exciting happened, it still had its funny moments though. The plot map would have just been a straight line.

Wrong.
Fanboy.
 
 
In applications that can use all 8 cores an 8320 will nearly match a 4770k. However in applications that use 4 or less cores it performs more like an i3.
 
I'd say the 8320/8350 would be the equivalent. 

There is none. If you really want an amd cpu at this point get an 8320 or just wait for their next lineup. 

there should be an off topic section, and a really off topic section for sh*t like this

Um... You just now found this?

yeah i found out when i got them.
so far with a bit of burn in i am very happy with them thanks.

Is it bad that i don't have any of those??

You just made a post about how a topic doesn't make Tech News standards and now you post this.... 
Off topic is going to hell.

teasing corsair again

is it just me or does that case look like a knock off 250D?

Essentially, there were some doubts about whether their first production ready CPU did actually use principle of superposition. For those of you who don't know, Quantum computers are not strictly binary, but rather use qubits, where a bit can be both a 1 and a 0 simultaneously. These quantum CPUs can also leverage the phenomenon of quantum entanglement. In the end, this means that a cluster of quantum computers can outlevarge traditional supercomputers in computational power. 
 
For those of you who want to know the 'specs':
Ohh, look a video: 

 
Personally, this is pretty exciting. At least for now it will only be available to big players, like NASA, who plan on building a quantum computer cluster using D-Wave's technology. Eventually, this may become mainstream for the entire market. I suspect within the next 50 years, if all the kinks are ironed out. Also, AMD and Intel needs to watch their back, there is a new player in town, and both Intel's and AMD's traditional transistor based CPUs are antiquated. Granted, there is still a large time gap before quantum computing becomes available to everyone. For now, at least it can power some of the worlds fastest supercomputers. 

where?

Mindblown

Im not sure how but its easy to do this hes not actually playing this i have a friend who was playing Half Life 3 too, hes just trolling
also the title of this topic made me get way too excited

Hey guys,

I've been working on our next Fast as Possible topic today, and we don't have a lot of time to review it before filming. There is a TON of misinformation on the web about this, so I'm hoping all of you can share your expertise and make sure I don't look like a fool with this script

The topic is Mouse DPI - trying to give a general overview and correct some misinformation that's readily available (without spreading more of it ).
 
"DPI, or dots per inch, is one of the most over-used, over-hyped words in the gaming peripheral industry.   But before we get into that, I should probably explain what DPI actually means. DPI is actually a misnomer when referring to mouse sensitivity – it stands for “dots per inch,” meaning the number of dots that can fit in a straight line which is 1-inch in length on a screen or a printed image. The proper name for a measurement of mouse sensitivity is actually CPI, or counts per inch. This is the number of “counts,” or virtual “pixels,” that the mouse sensor will be able to display and register on a surface in one square inch of physical space. Optical sensors have a maximum native resolution or native CPI based on the size constraints of a mouse, usually somewhere between 800 and 1600 CPI, so in order to raise the CPI beyond that level manufacturers have to actually split each virtual representation of a pixel into 4 or more virtual pixels. This is why DPI – technically CPI – measurements given by manufacturers are usually in multiples of 800.   “Well, split away!” you might be saying, “higher CPI is always better!” Ehhhh, let’s not go that far. Splitting these virtual pixels actually causes some major issues with sensor accuracy, as having more virtual pixels creates more noise – or interference - and therefore more errors when reading mouse movements. The main message here is this – just because your mouse has 8000 CPI does not mean it is able to read more information than a mouse with 800 CPI. CPI is only a measurement of the relationship between how far your mouse moves on the surface and how far your cursor moves on the screen, not a measurement of precision or accuracy.   So why do most mouse manufacturers insist on releasing these mice with monstrous DPI numbers? The main reason is, as usual, marketing and advertising. Being able to say “our brand new mouse, now featuring a 10 billion DPI sensor!” sounds a lot more impressive than “our new mouse with the same DPI but with improvements to x, y, and z features.” This industry has created massive hype around this “feature” that doesn’t actually improve their product, and in some cases even makes it less accurate. The second reason is that there is some amount of people that enjoy using their mouse at this ridiculously high sensitivity, whether they use very high resolution displays, they move their mouse with micro-movements, or they just like to whip their mouse around the screen faster than the human eye can see. And third, there are some people that do believe that they are more accurate in shooters and other games while using an extremely high hardware CPI and lowering their sensitivity in software. But, as I mentioned before, a higher CPI usually leads to more noise and a higher error rate for mouse movements, so let’s just say that the jury is still out on that one...   Alright, conclusion time. Is there a “proper” or “best” DPI? The short answer is no. As is the case with most aspects of computer peripherals, it comes down to personal preference, so there isn’t necessarily a CPI that is “better” than the rest. You just need to experiment with a few different ones and see what you like. What we can say for sure is that we have pretty much reached the top end of what we NEED in terms of CPI, so it’s time for mouse manufacturers to work on features that will actually improve the user experience…   Speaking of terrible segues that lead into ad integrations, …"
  So yeah! Let me know if this makes sense, or if you know more than I do please feel free to suggest corrections.

Thanks guys! -Nick  

UPDATE: The stream has been delayed due to circumstances that are beyond our control. The thread will be updated when a new date/time has been confirmed. Thanks for your patience folks!
 
So what is this?
 

This is a very rare opportunity to do a LIVE Q&A session with one of the folks who worked on the Haswell-E line of CPUs from Intel. He and Linus have connected already briefly and aside from trade secrets, you guys are welcome to ask any questions you want about the product, the development cycle, and what it's like behind the scenes working on an important product like this at Intel!

 

Alejandro Hoyos, Product Marketing Engineer at Intel will be joining us for a Q&A and suggestion session on [DATE/TIME TO BE DETERMINED]
 
Click here to find out what time it is in your time zone
 
This will be a great opportunity to talk about your ideas, ask questions, and give feedback on this exciting new product.
 
Not only that, but we'll be giving away TWO Intel Haswell-E CPUs on the show... Because Intel is sending us the CPUs and putting us in charge of shipping the prizes, the giveaway will be INTERNATIONAL.
 
It will be streamed at http://twitch.tv/linustech, and the giveaway we're running is for LIVE VIEWERS ONLY.
 
The main topic of the stream is basically up to you guys and we'd love to see you post your ideas in this thread ahead of time so we can figure out how to structure this to make it as entertaining and educational as possible!
 
We want this to be a lot of fun and super interactive, so please post your ideas in this forum thread. Linus will definitely be taking more suggestions during the show as well, but it's great to have a starting point.. Folks who post in the thread versus trying to get their questions featured live *will* have a bit of an advantage!
 
How do I win the swag?
 
The winner will be chosen randomly from the live viewers of the stream during a random period, so make sure you're paying attention!
