    1.Of course not
    2.Of course yes
    3.Maybe, if your monitors have dvi or hdmi ports. If yours don't have, maybe a hdmi to vga adapter would help. Sometimes, it would make some monitors blue.
    4.Up to your wallet...If I were you, I would buy a middle-level price card. Like evga or some one? Maybe the most cheapest you could buy from amazon or newegg is better.

    I personally use a mix between Windows Defender, Malwarebytes (for system scans) and common sense.

    texzarrax reacted to tiberiusmoon5 in anti virus   
    Alot of anti virus companies are stopping there freeware versions (like AVG) since win 10 comes with antivirus,
    so windows defender is the best,
    malwarebytes is antimalware not a antivirus,
    I personally dont use malwarebytes just because i am careful when installing programs and i know windows layout enough to remove malware myself.
    I use Ccleaner and windows defender to keep my system running fine,

    texzarrax reacted to Misanthrope in Best SINGLE-SLOT mITX GPU with low TDP (preferably blower style cooler)?   
    Best is a Quadro k1200. It is half height and single slot. Maxwell based I believe 1.1 tflops according to this:
    http://gfxspeak.com/2015/07/16/review-nvidia-quadro/
     
    So it's about as good as a 750. Not great.
     
    I think you should wait a few weeks for the 1050 I suspect we'll see a lot more small cards because it's TDP will probably be close to the 750 but the performance a bit over the 960

    texzarrax reacted to nicklmg in 3 MILLION SUBSCRIBER GIVEAWAY   
    THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR BRINGING US TO 3 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS ON YOUTUBE!!
     
    Y'all are bae. That's why we've partnered up with Razer to give away one NEW Razer Blade 14, and one NEW Razer Blade Stealth (full specs listed in the announcement video), with a custom graphic designed by our very own Edzel Yago  .
     
    RULES OF THE GIVEAWAY:
     
    1. One entry per user. Duplicate posts and posts from duplicate accounts will be deleted before a winner is drawn, to leave one post per person.
     
    2. Winners will have 72 hours to respond. If a winner does not respond within that time, a new winner will be drawn.
     
    3. This is a worldwide giveaway with no age restrictions. Shipping costs will be covered by the shipper, but any duties/taxes/other fees upon delivery will be the sole responsibility of the winner.
     
     
    Alright, now that we've got that out of the way, OMG THIS IS AWESOME HOW DO I WIN ONE???:
     
    1. Comment below letting us know which Razer laptop you would prefer to win. Feel free to make it fun - what would you use it for? Why do you prefer the Blade or the Blade Stealth?
     
    2. This is not a REQUIREMENT for entry, but you should definitely follow Razer on Twitter and subscribe to their YouTube page. In addition to providing the laptops for this awesome giveaway AND sponsoring our trip to PAX, they work with a plethora of other incredible creators in a number of spaces, and release cool content with some of them on a fairly regular basis. Please support them on social media and Tweet at them thanking them for this giveaway!!
     
    3. Check back in one week. Entries for this giveaway will close on Monday, September 12, and winners will be chosen soon after. Winners will be messaged by me here on the forum. Do not accept any other form of communication as legitimate, and do not share personal information with anyone who asks for it unless you can confirm that they are a legitimate source.
     
    That's it!! If I've missed anything, feel free to let me know.


    GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE ENTERING, AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS CRAZY JOURNEY
     
     
    EDIT:
     
    Alright, we have selected our winners!!!
     
    @Plavi and @willp3, you have 72 hours to respond to the DMs I am sending you right now. If we do not receive a reply in that time, new winners will be chosen! Since both said that the Blade would be their choice, it's on a "first replied first served" basis. (for clarity - what this means is that the first winner to reply will get their choice between the two laptops, and the second winner to reply will get the laptop that the first winner did not choose. This does not mean that we're only giving away one laptop...)
     
    Thanks everyone.
     
     
    EDIT2:
     
    Alright, so @Plavi has officially claimed the New Blade! Congrats on winning

    But, unfortunately for @willp3, he did not respond in time to claim his prize...

    Our new Blade Stealth winner is @ted542! Check your inbox, you have 72 hours to reply
     
     
    EDIT3:
     
    Both laptops have now been claimed. Thanks for participating in this awesome giveaway, and please be sure to keep an eye out for giveaways in the future!
     
     
    Please don't report posts in this topic - all duplicates will be handled before drawing, so if you have double posted, don't worry about it.
