    I need to get 2 copies of pubg, does anyone know if I can get like a humble bundle or something with 2 copies for less than 60 bucks?

    its 30 bucks(30 bucks USD) on Steam and 2 copies would be 60 bucks USD

    maybe key sites like g2a(personally i wouldn't use it though as they have questionable business choices)

    Since Intel Is increasing cores in the upcoming Coffeelake desktop CPUs, (4c4t? in i3s, 6c6t in i5s, 6c12t in i7s) would they be a better buy compared to Ryzen 3/5/7 CPUs?

     

    Let me know your opinions.

    from the looks of it, you aren't asking for a cpu just asking what do you think will be better

    so just wait for benchmarks

    Get the 1700. If you overclock it the 1700 can actually perform like an 1800X.

    OC a 1700 and make it perform as good as an 1800X

    Neither.Just OC a 1700 and you have a 1800x

     I believe you guys are being very misleading

    It is not guaranteed he can overclock it as high as an 1800x

    That's the wonder of silicon valley  everyone's mileage may vary 

    So it's not guaranteed and even if it does work he may have to put the voltage very high and get a better cooler.

    Hey. I was looking at CPU's for my new computer I wanted to build. I am stuck between the decision of the AMD Ryzen 7 1700 or the i7 7700. I could also wait for the 8700, but I already ruled that out. I mostly play minecraft while recording and video editing (Most likely 1080p video rendering.) and planning to play Halo games in the future. I was also going to get a Intel Optane module for it. But also I could just get an M.2 NVmE SSD on AMD side.

    My desired upgrades are 165hz 1440p IPS G-sync display (AOC Agon) and 1080(ti) (and yes I know I don't need such a powerful gpu).

    I say GPU. But you should wait for the prices to drop again

    if you want to play native gsync 165hz you r gonna have to lower settings by a considerable amount

    but just save up and buy them both at the same time(or just wait for a sale on either one)

    buying that monitor and using a 780 is a waste of the monitors potential because you will have to compromise a lot to get the results you want from a monitor like that.

    Upgrading the GPU is a waste of the GPU's potential as the 1080 TI will literally wreck any game of today no problem

    but the 1080 TI should be able to handle that monitor very well though to keep it at a constant 165hz at 1440p with gsync will be very hard so most likely you won't be able to max out every game and get the most out of your monitor on triple a games

    Yeah being a stay at home mom, she could easily be a consultant and earn an income favorable to their tax bracket.

    Its good to hire family and friends as consultants in this manner. These LEGAL loop holes have always interested me.

    There was one mentioned on the news yesterday or the day before, but I cant remember specifically what it was. The only thing that pops out was the term "Sprinkling" and "Income" or maybe it was before tax or after, arrggg cant remember.

    actually IIRC she's technically CEO

    My friend needs a gpu that has equal or more power than a GTX 650 but this card shouldn't require a power connector as his cheap PSU that came with his pre built doesn't have a power connector for the gpu ( 400 watt unit ). This card will be bought off eBay Kleinanzeigen ( German version of Craigslist ). Any suggestions are helpful 

    has equal or more power than a gtx 650 but doesn't require extra power for 30 euros?

    thats gonna be hard

    good luck on that

    OR the 375 watt card is the dual gpu card. and the 300 watt card is the single gpu card. 

    hold your horses my dude

    quote from the website thats for amd frontier you know their super expensive vega cards that are supposed to compete with nvidia equivalent(I cant remember at the moment)

    "As for the power consumption, I don’t think anyone expected it to be lower than Frontier’s, which has a board power of 300W (air-cooled) or 375W (liquid edition)."

     

    here a link to amd frontier

    There are more people contributing to our projects than ever before. And everyone brings their own quirky style.

     

    We also have more time to work on things, which means we could finish our videos to the same standard as before, then put our feet on the desk for the rest of the day.. or we can spend more time making them better than ever.

     

    I hope it's obvious which one we chose :P

    will slick ever come back to host

    I really liked him and you linus :P

    also have you ever thought about having a whole range of hosts?

    I know you might get some backlash but having alot more people host would be a nice change from linus and weird thumbnails

    Also whenever brandon hosts a video its so crispy(you need more of that)

    I mean technically having taran for the bike videos brandon for like 1 camera vid every like year and edzel randomly is a thing

    but I would like more of a rotating cast of hosts I guess(I also want slick back)
