  1. These guys worship Linus I guess I started taking what Linus had to say with a grain of salt after he canned the Surface 3. lol
  2. One of the most ignorant things I've ever seen lol Everyone and their mother has used an iOS and an Android phone in their life. There are things that make Windows Phone a great experience. "Buyers remorse". Ignorant.
  3. The real thing here is that I want a phone that can multiboot from different ROMS, whether Android or Windows. This is one step closer... A Lumia phone that can run Android? That would be fucking awesome
  4. It's good for everybody. Buying an OS is going to be a thing of the past pretty soon, and I'm all for it. Even though I'm running a legit copy of Windows right now, I'm really tired of having to do it for the MANY machines I have at home lol.
  5. Who told you it was crap? because you certainly probably have not used it lol. The UI for WP8.1 is awesome, the only thing it lacks is app support. And it's more of Google's fault lol
  6. Completely free too, even for pirated copies. Microsoft is incredible lol
  7. I think it may if there is in fact a subscription based Windows 10 plan on the works. Probably a plan where you can get a subscription with Windows + Office for some price. But full-licensed Windows probably won't ever be bundled and I can see why
  8. Google a program called, "ThisPC Tweaker" It lets you change what folders you want to use for "This PC" shortcuts. Try it, it works really well.
  9. Looks like we're getting it this year guys! Haven't seen Microsoft's entire keynote, but they did confirm that Office 2016 is releasing this year from watching the Keynote Highlights: I didn't see the keynote, but it looks like they are adding a software called Power BI? Looks like a data analytic software.. which must be cool for some people. Your thoughts?
  10. I have nothing but good things to say about all of the Asrock boards I've bought That said, they still aren't my first choice
  11. Slowly and gently. It's broken if you mess it up, already messed up from your mistake. Up to you and its your responsibility lol.
  12. Grab some pliers and straighten the pin out. Should be zero problems unless you messed it up royally be very careful of the amount of tension you put on the pliers though. Just enough movement to straighten it... gently.
  13. Thank the lord. Corsair gaming was hideous as hell
  14. Yeah I've tried getting to a six-core, but it looks like my motherboard just doesn't like it. It's super easy to overclock the chip though, but I suspect my cheap-ass motherboard is holding it back severely in some ways. Crashing when upping voltage by little amounts, etc. Though I'm hearing going to higher resolutions lessens the bottleneck a little. Wonder if that's true.
  15. I suppose it's just a luxurious feeling I guess. I tend to be stupid with money sometimes..
  16. Yeah you're telling me haha. I noticed the huge bottleneck I've been getting. It was alright with my 6870... but now that I upgraded, I'm not getting a huge improvement and I know why lol.
  17. Yeah, I don't know. If I wait another week, I could grab an i7 4790k... Hm.
  18. Hey guys I have the money to do an upgrade on my computer, and I see that I can grab an MSI Z97z Krait and a 4690k for about $350 right now. I'm wondering if it's worth it? I was also looking at maybe getting a 21:9 monitor, but I don't know where my priorities should be haha. Without a new monitor, I'm gaming at 1680x1050.. With a new monitor, I'd be gaming at 2650x1080, but with a Phenom II x4 960t... Hmmm. What should I do first? EDIT: Looks like I bought the LG 29UM55 instead. Hope it was a good decision (: I can wait another 2 weeks for a CPU and MOBO upgrade, honestly.
  19. She reminds me of Kazuo Hirai at his press conferences lately. They both seem very classy
  20. Corsair, XFX, Silverstone, Intel, AMD Never bought anything from them that broke.
  21. IDK if I want to buy another one and SLI or if I should get a new graphics card when 300 series comes out and put my 290 in my other machine..
