    I’d argue they’re not really family friendly.
     And their primary audience would probably be the 14-20 range anyways so….

    LTT maintains itself as family friendly and yet I keep seeing this reference. It got to the point where I thought maybe I was out of the loop and 69 means something else to the kids. But nope it means exactly what I think it means. It's such a vulgar thing to mention in videos watched by so many children.
     
    It's unbelievably ironic that in the latest LTT video they censored the word "porn" and then a few seconds later they make a 69 joke. How does this even make sense.

    I'm not gonna name names or point fingers, but I think some people on this forum should be muted from certain topics.
     
    There should be a survey of questions or something you have to answer to verify your knowledge/experience on any given topic on the forum before being allowed to reply to a thread.
     
    EDIT: Maybe implement a user-given ratings system, displaying the effectiveness and accuracy of a members posts.
     
    We have new builders coming here for advice on their PC's, and inexperienced enthusiasts coming and confusing the answers. They don't know who to trust, everyone acts like they know what's best.
     
    The amount of arguments we get into with eachother is insane, it'd be nice if we could all be on the same page (*or at least know who to trust). 🙂

    racer243l reacted to WhitetailAni in Would it be worth using i9 11900k with 3090 for pci 4.0 instead of 10900k?   
    Is there any reason you have to use Intel compared to AMD?
    AMD 3rd and 5th gen support PCIe 4.0, and a Ryzen 9 5900X has 2 more cores than a 10900K and 4 more cores than an 11900K.

    racer243l reacted to howiec in Razer 8kHz prototype mouse!   
    So I was lucky enough to receive a Razer 8kHz prototype mouse.
     
    Some initial impressions:
    Very noticeable improvement in responsiveness & smoothness Easier to make fine & precise aim adjustments Greater motion clarity & easier tracking Still noticeable even with lower FPS (e.g. 60 vs 360) I noticed the Focus+ sensor's improvement over standard sensors like the 3389, but the combo of firmware changes + 8kHz makes this prototype sensor/mode way better than my Viper Ultimate that also has Focus+  
    Tested thus far (will add more titles):
    Apex Legends Cyberpunk 2077 Doom Eternal  
    I really hope all future mice will have 2, 4, & 8kHz polling options too.  I feel it's a must have for the serious gamer, especially if you have a high refresh rate monitor and an optimized system.
     
     
    ==========================================================
    Current test setup (main specs):
    9700k @ 5GHz all-core, 0 AVX offset, 46 uncore (I chose no HT on purpose) 32GB DDR4 @ 3200MHz, 13-13-13-28-350, Dual-rank Maximus X Hero WiFi (Z370) Strix 3090 OC'd PG259QN  (360 Hz) 27GN950-B  (160 Hz) PG258Q  (240 Hz) Important Note:
    I have a very optimized, high-end rig, and also tend to notice even minor latency, stutter, and performance issues.

    racer243l reacted to V3ptur in Console Scalpers Are Being Robbed   
    Apparently people who have been scalping consoles online through sites like Ebay are apparently being robbed in Toronto, Canada and are recommended to sell their consoles face to face with the buyer and keep in close communication with somebody the know in case anything goes wrong.

    My thoughts
    I personally think this is hilariouse and I'm surprised its in Canada of all places. But hey maybe this might stop a few people from trying to scalp but atleast it shows you how passionate the community.

    racer243l reacted to porina in Nvidia is "more stable" out of the box   
    The RTX launch was a hardware problem on a small handful of units, not a driver one. It is worse, but a different problem. 
     
    The recent AMD driver fail also affects older gen cards, so is not limited to Navi. Reported (lack of) compatibility in compute cases means Navi in its current form is not a consideration to me outside of gaming use.
     
    I think Polaris (RX) and Vega launches didn't have any notable driver problems. Just the PCIe slot power issue on 480 but again that was hardware, not driver, even if it was "fixed" in driver.

    racer243l got a reaction from Dominik999 in AOC C27G1 - is it good?   
    Well overshoot, not overheat means it will overcorrect the picture which usually isn´t noticable a lot. The settings fast and faster are what you should pick from depending on what the reviews say.
    It should also be set to 144Hz to use it properly so just put in that mode

    Yesi iwll have to think. problem is 2080ti cant run 1440p max settings with max ray tracing and this will be huge problem when soon all gsmes will start supporting it
  21. Agree
    racer243l reacted to Ankerson in Should i buy 2 RTX 2080TI or wait for next gen?   
    Sure it can, no problem, I have one and can run at max settings at 1440P with Ray Tracing on.
     
    It will be awhile before Ray Tracing is more universal though.
     
    Waiting on the game developers to patch the games etc at this point.
     
    And the new games will be more optimized for Ray Tracing as time goes on.
