Do you not delete emails? Do you have thousands of read emails in your inbox? How can you live with such an un-organised life? But maybe I am too organised, I do have a habit of -physically too- throwing things away and then digging through the trash to find it again. But well....
So, I guess there's no way to leave a review on how disappointed I am in the paint job coming off of the bottle then? It should have been recessed with a laser, not just painted on top.

I'm in the minority, but I like Comic Sans personally. 

If you know you're not going to need a pc for a few years your better off selling it just keep your hard drive so when you build a new one you dont need to install everything again
 

Tbqh, I have no issues with them 'disrespecting the dead', after all once someone is dead they're nothing more than a forbidden steak.
I wouldn't say I'm a big fan of the monarchy, but I did think the Queen was a canny lass, and I thought the initial tweet was kinda funny.
 
If they'd left it there I would have just thought that's typical Dbrand and thought no more of it, but it's their response that I found really insulting though.
 
I'm not usually one for caring about people's feelings, but I don't think even I would say "Shouldn't you be grieving?". That's not even funny, that's just sick

Can't argue with you there... Though I doubt LMG will get into such a niche market with so many competitors.
Not all of those were wireless. You can use them wired as well, at least some of them.
 
There is no RGB lighting to speak of but wouldn't you be well off with a normal back-lit productivity keyboard?
The Perixx PERIBOARD-311PLUS sounds like a good one (https://wiproo.com/best-flat-keyboards/)
 
I know it's not laptop-thin but have you seen the G915 reviews and the LTT video? Linus seems to like it a lot and uses it as a daily driver, I've heard.
Also not laptop-thin but the Meetion MK80? (https://www.thumbculture.co.uk/meetion-mk80-ultrathin-mechanical-keyboard-review)
 
Good luck with your search. Let us know if you found anything.

Washing in 40° may get the dirt out of the clothes, but there still might be bacteria present. Also cold water doesn't get the .cum stains out properly. And hang dry? Ain't no one got time for that.

I reckon I'll just buy one t-shirt and use it for a few months to see how it holds up before committing.

It's not an 8700k, it's a non-k, I'm running stock at 4.3 GHz. I didn't think my CPU was holding me back, it's only at 50% utilization in the screenshot anyway.
 
My question was why is my GPU not being 100% used if the frames are less than my monitors refresh rate? I could understand if I was at 80% usage and 100FPS, but when there's clearly more frames to be pushed and all the hardware is only at half load, surely more FPS could be produced?

dolphin!!!

I didn't preorder a card, but man, I reckon in a years time or maybe even only half that, everyone will be asking themselves how they ever gamed without raytracing technology.
For me, this is groundbreaking innovation. I remember playing Duke Nukem Forever and there's this big mirror in his bathroom and it just looks horrible. Back then I was asking my self why they couldn't bother rendering that properly.
Now I know.
The future is nigh!
 
Seriously though, I'll buy the card once there's benchmarks and reviews published, no matter the outcome.

The surge protector is only there to protect against unwanted electrical spikes, usually cause by a thunderstorm. 
So yes, you can use your pc if no there aren't any thunderclouds outside your window.

Since you said the stealth was for art... I'd use it as a plate for my food (culinary art)

(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...

Back in February 2010 I bought my very first computer from scratch with watercooling on literally everything because I didn't know better.
I like blue a lot, it's my favorite color, so I filled it up with a blue, ready-to-go solution.
 
After 2½ years (October 2012), it had gunked up pretty severely and as I was forced to clean it, I went and purchased completely new hardware.
I then cleaned the CPU waterblock, the radiators (360 & 140) and the pump to my best extend, as those were the only parts I would recycle in the new build.
 
Lo and behold when the new rig was done, I was pretty proud of it myself and it looked nice for a 2nd ever watercooling build.
I had to make a wooden base for the case since it was going to be on a carpet and I had to make sure that the airflow wouldn't be too restricted, and to minimize the dust intake of the PSU.
 
i7 3820
Asus Rampage IV Formula
3x EVGA GTX 670 FTW 4GB
4x4 GB Corsair Vengeance low profile
NZXT Phantom Black (case)
1500W Silverstone Strider
3x Samsung Syncmaster 2233RZ
1x140 + 1x360 beefy Radiators
Swiftech CPU block - the thumbscrews died after reinstalling the block, so I had to use other bolts instead.
I believe the pump is a laing with an X-Top v.2 on it.
 
The wooden base

 
 
You can't really see it, but I added a twisted strip of silver at the exit of the reservoir to the pump and I used destilled clear water to make sure it wont gunk up like it did in the past.

 
 
With the cathode rods turned on it looks so much nicer (2x 20cm + 2x 10cm) (The other 20cm is stuck to the back side of the 360 rad)

 
 
I had to make some small modifications to the case to make the radiator fit inside of it as well as to not restrict the airflow.

 
 
Basically just shows how I setup the front bay.

 
 
Ok so now you know what it looked like 4 years ago when I build it. During that time it has seen a lot of use and the things that have changed/failed are listed below.
Front intake fan died, I replaced it with a metal blade fan 140mm Noctua fan on the bottom radiator wasn't good enough for the tight fin spacing, so I replaced it with a much beefier one 2 of the 4 beefy fans on the top died so I removed one of them and repaired the other, but it later died again The 200mm NXZT fan died after about 3 years of service The middle GTX 670 died because of temperature. It didn't the first time, but the 4th or 5th time I forgot to turn on the radiator fans it did. And there was a strange smell too. Luckily I could just disable the PCI-e lane and unplug it's power so that I didn't have to drain the loop. The case has got negative pressure which means that a ton of dust accumulates in there and provides a risk of static electricity It's slightly leaking at the pump so I have to fill it with water once a month I didn't clean the recycled watercooling parts well enough so the tubing has turned completely green but there isn't any gunk present which is nice I ran out of storage space so I put a HDD on top of the PSU and the SSD just randomly tucked in between the Optical drive space 2 out of the 5 fan controllers on the NZXT case died after about a year so I put in some switches that I can manually turn on the fans with My desk setup has gotten a mini fridge and a printer table which I have long sought for including a mini desk fan for when it's +30°C inside  
Current condition of the loop. It's not all that great

 
 
The bottom most fitting is leaking, but only when a small bit of outside force is applied to it.

 
 
You can clearly see the amount of gunk buildup in the reservoir and corrosion of the plug fittings.

 
 
Dust accumulates easily with negative pressure in the case.

 
 
Now, since I'm going to travel far far away for a long long time, I don't need this rig anymore and I'm giving it to my sister. Her computer is an old timer and she really needs a serious upgrade.
All of her stuff is still on the old HDD, at least they're sata but they're only 2x 250GB drives. I'm going to make that a RAID 1 array for for backup and important files.
I then made her purchase (literally) a 250GB Samsung 750 EVO and a 1TB WD Green for mass storage
 
However, she is not tech savvy by any means which is why I'm going to make it aircooled instead.
I have long since thrown away the stock cooling units for the graphics cards and the cpu came without a fan so I had to purchase those as aftermaket solutions
I am going to make some changes to make it look nice again but I just ordered the parts I need yesterday and the ETA is tuesday.
 
To make sure that the case pressure is positive, I'm going to block off the big 240mm hole in the side panel with a piece of black carton. All I have to do is remove the shroud, pop in the carton, put back the shroud, done deal.
 
I cannot tell how annoyed I am by the fact that the monitors are so wobbly and it's been going on for too long now (6+ years) so in order to save my sister from the same pain as I endured, I asked my dad to help make a monitor stand since they're crazy expensive online. Heck, we're gonna weld one together for like $50 worth of materials. There's no need for them to be so expensive.
 
That's about all for now.
