Badazzz got a reaction from Bananasplit_00 in 750TI to 280X
It's going to be slightly bottlenecked, but it can take it, no doubt.

That's youtube for you. I've been getting the same Sprint LTE/Verizon/AT&T ads with the little fucking colorful balls almost constantly for a month now. No skip button either.

Badazzz reacted to PlayStation 2 in PSA: 390(x) and 290(x) crossfire does not play well together
Would it be wrong if I used
in this case?

I turned my setting to yours and got almost identical results (1 fps difference, margin of error) you know your GPU cores are almost identical to mine right?

I chose these parts for these reasons:
CPU: I chose an AMD FX 6300 because even though the performance per core might not be as good as a core i3, if you have multiple people accessing the NAS at the same time (you said "we" in your post, so I see that as a likely scenario ) then you won't see a major slow down that you might see with a processor with less cores. However, a quad core or even a dual core would still be a good solution.
Motherboard: I really just picked out the cheapest motherboard with Sata III ports on it, not a big decision here. And I couldn't find any practical motherboards with 2 ethernet ports, so whatever.
Memory: I decided to go with 16gb of memory since a NAS is going to be a little demanding for memory, but 8gb would work just fine too, but it's only a 10-20 dollar difference so I found 16gb to be superior price-wise.
Storage: I went with 3 5900rpm seagate drives, since WD Reds would cost a lot more and would really hurt the budget (they aren't really practical for consumer use imo) and these aren't far from the reliability that WD Reds offer, but definitely are far from the price tag.
Case: I figured black was a good color for a NAS. I don't think anyone would want their NAS in a crazy gaming case lol. It also has everything we would need for this build.
Power Supply: I went with the 500w 80+ EVGA power supply since the build is estimated around 200w on PCPP, which is probably a high estimate, so 500w is more than enough, but 430w 80+ would also be a liable solution and you would save like 10-20 dollars.
Total: $608.91 or 541.54 Euro. Don't do a RAID array because it will only protect from failing drives for so many years, however, take that extra money and invest it in cloud storage for your files I hope this helps.

Uhmm no.

Cheating is just taking everything away from games... fun is no longer there.. competitive is a joke in all games now even Counter Strike.
Consoles have them in their masses too.
I fucking hate that CSGO became more popular it's just a cheat fest.
COD is the same.
Battlefield is the same
FPS at least to me personally is really dying.

Looks like cooltext websites font. I'd either purchase from a good graphics artist for a low price, or spend a while making one in an actual photo app.

With higher end hardware you will surpass power costs by a lot. It's all about tdp per performance.

Why does your case cost more than your processor? look into money allocation man.

Badazzz reacted to thekeemo in Can anyone confirm what this user is saying to me?
Last one is true for the CPU not GPU
Second is true but it depends on how optimized and graphically intensive the game is.
The first is BS artifacting comes from overheating/bad gpu cores not corrupt windows. Not the other way around.

Badazzz got a reaction from ★ Coups ★ in Is this dangerous for my components when cleaning dust?
As long as you don't apply to pressure it should be good. It's plastic so it isn't going to discharge any electricity really, and the bristles don't seem like they would create to much friction or pressure with components. Not a bad idea.

Badazzz reacted to TheKDub in Only got one 6 pin..
I'd say it'd be best to have both of em, if you have to, use a 2x molex to 6 pin adapter.
With only one 6pin power connector, I'd guess it'd crash due to a lack of power when at high load.

U might aswell go for it. Programs u use a lot can benefit. that's a right steal!

Badazzz got a reaction from 7850OC in A8-7600 Benchmark Results
The A10-6800 isn't bad though, it has the highest CPU clockspeed for an APU, but the 7850k and 7870k are probably better options since they use R7 graphics for the iGPU which gives them better options for dual graphics. But for CPU intense games like GTA V, the 6800k is the best.
