    My 10 year old PC consisted of a Athlon 64 and a GeForce 6600GT... which probably fares about as well.

    This is why I don't like the idea  of self driving cars, James May actually talked about it about 2 seasons ago on top gear. Personally if I was programming it I would have to set it to protect the lives of the vehicles occupants over others outside, but that's just me.

    I do, but very little really. Gogglebox and TFI friday seem to be the only things besides football, F1 and the news that I watch.

    GOOD NEWS!!! THE NEXT UPDATE IS HERE...
     
    ...Alright, so not an "official" update with parts to show off, but this is more of a "what's next" update.
     
    The next part to be picked up shall be the RAM, of which I have got myself in a slight pickle over choosing what kit to get.
    The original intention had been to get 16gb of kingston hyperX fury and be done with it, yet I've found a couple other options that may or may not go better with the overall system look.
    The first kit I've come across is the crucial ballistix tactical. Not the tracer stuff with the LEDs in it like in Linus' system, but the plain old yellowy orange stuff using the same style heatsink. I can get the LP version for a decent price, yet I'm apprehensive as the colour is darker than my Mpower board. Check them out here http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ballistix-Tactical-BLT2C8G3D1608ET3LX0CEU-PC3-12800-Unbuffered/dp/B00A14ZTRO/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1425746781&sr=8-9&keywords=crucial+ballistix+tactical
    The second set I've spotted is the Avexir original blitz gold kit, which has a yellow/gold heatsink with yellow pulsing LEDs in the top of the heatsink. They're about a fiver more, are a heck of a lot taller and so will probably force me to get an AiO, yet they look awesome. You can also see them here (currently unavailable on amazon, but I can get them on overclockers I believe still) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Original-channel-240-pin-2400MHz-AVD3U24001008G-2BZ1SE/dp/B00P6LQ4WQ/ref=sr_1_87?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1425842810&sr=1-87
     
    So the question I pose is: Which RAM should I get? The black kingston fury, the dark yellow low profile crucial ballistix or the bigger, flashier, Avexir blitz.
     
    On a side note, I'm really pissed off that the avexir blitz MPower ram is unavialable now, as that was made to go with my motherboard. :angry:  After the RAM issue is resolved, I shall get the CPU, followed by GPU, which shall bring this section nearly to a close. Only a CPU cooler will be needed, and I've my eye on the alphacool eisberg 120 for £55 at the moment from scan.

    Thorium19 got a reaction from GoodBytes in Is the Apple iPad Pro even worth it?   
    I think it depends on how heavily integrated into the apple ecosystem you are. If you only have iDevices and need a 2 in 1, then it makes decent sense, although personally I think it's ridiculous because it uses iOS and not OSX, which is the OS needed to challenge the surface pro 4. If it did use OSX, then I'd say it makes a lot more sense, but as it's iOS and is limited more, it is less useful and is now just a tool for apple fanboys.
