  1. So I recently, gained back the access to my main Runescape account (It's not very high level though) after not playing for close to 5 years and I was wondering if there were some other nerds on this forum that still playing the game? If so, what mode are you playing on? If ya want you can leave your RS name
  2. He means that it's going to have close to 3 times the pixels. (If I assume correctly and he's talking about at 3440x1440 21:9 monitor it's more like 2,4 times though.
  3. I know nothing about this monitor, but as always with these kind of threads we (probably) have no clue.
  4. So I installed a copy of windows 8.1 on an old laptop and since I wasn't used to installing new OS's on laptops I didn't think about that it would be difficult to get the drivers for the PC. So long story short the laptop can't output an HDMI signal anymore and I assume it's the missing driver for the E1-1200 that is causing that. Any solutions to the problem? Maybe a download link? Or maybe has it got to do with something completely different and I'm just being even dumber than I already am? Cheers
  5. This is useless to the OP as he lives in italy and the prices in italy are higher and different. (I once made a PCpartpicker list for someone in italy and that is what he told me.)
  6. So... A guy I know came to me and asked me if I could help him speed up his oldish laptop again. Seeing how he had a shit ton of trash on it I decided that it needed a new windows installation. Then I put a copy of windows 7 Ultimate bit on some type of USB-stick without making it bootable (I thought I had already done that with the programm rufus when I put the data on my pc from a stick so I figured I didn't have to do it. Also seeing how there was already an OS on the PC I didn't even need to boot from it just put the data on the PC and used the setup. It seemed to work but in the end it wouldn't finish the installation as it seemed to be stuck at the last point of the installation for about 20 minutes. So I thought I would just restart the computer and it boots and then I get an error telling me that it can't continue the installation and then shuts done just to turn back on to do they same thing again. Help me please. I don't know what's happening.
  7. How much does Slick bench, squat and deadlift? Also when will Slick come back? #FuckLuke What ever happend to squirtle? (Slick's rig not the pokémon.) Will you be at the Gamescom in 2016? How come Linus's sister is taller than him? Why is my uncle Nicky V so hilarious? How come Dennis works for you? I mean it really doesn't seem like he's from Canada or any other english-speaking country . (No offence m8) What did y'all get for Christmas? Do you even lift?
  8. So yeah haven't had the time to catch up on tech over the last little because my life became really busy and I wasn't able to allocate the time to haning out on forums and reading up on this/ watching reviews. So I know I've missed the Skylake launch. What should I know about it? (What CPUs are a good deal, did we get a 6 core on mainstream, what board types (like z87, b85, H87) are they and which should one look at?) Also has anything else happend ? GPUs? Didn't know where to put this since this doesn't seem to fit into any category. Cheers
  9. I changed around some stuff and I now have the option of using an R9 380 4GB or an R9 280x 3GB + a better PSU. I think the second choice is better do you agree? (Didn't change the SSD.)
  10. Are you calling me a noob? I'm offended mate Been into PC hardware for years now. I know what's up. I guess it's just personally preference. But in my experience and in the experience of the 15 or so people I have built rigs for SSDs are one of the most important components for a good experience.
  11. Aight let's stop talking about the SSD as we will have to agree to disagree. It's not like I'm going below the tdp with the PSU. Do you belive the 280x will be a better fit than the 380? It has 3 GB of Vram and costs just a couple bucks more than the R9 380. Also seems to be better peformance wise. (Though that might have changed with drivers.)
  12. You might be right with the Vram , I'll have to look into this, however the part about the SSD is just false. If you have ever used a PC with an HDD and then slapped in a SSD you will have noticed how much of difference it makes. SSDs have come down in price so much they basically belong in every PC above 500€ . Do you have any sources that back up you claim about the Vram tho?
  13. Yeah he was but he came back. In a orange parker. Can't seem to talk properly ever since tho.
  14. I know mate. Been doing this for a while . (Personally I like to use overkill PSUs that is not an option here.) Also I don't think that would be worth it. I mean an SSD is one of the most crucial things to have in a build. (I know people like to think it's not like that but tbh it's one of the best things you can do for a PC.) Also I think at 1080p 2 GB of ram should be fine right?
  15. 1. As joke. Because it's funny that he spread information that carelessly . 2. Yeah definitely. Keep in mind that I did not say what I belive to have picked up. 3. I did not know that. TIL. Thanks.
  16. So I'm bulding a PC for a kid that wants to spend 800€ on a PC+ Monitor. I have a very legal copy of Windows 10 avaible so I'll give him that and about 120€ go to some IPS 1080p Samsung monitor. So for 680€ bucks I came up with an Case: Corsair Carbide Series 100R Motherboard: Asrock H97 Anniversary (Will be using a Devil's Canyon chip so I can't go for B85) CPU: Intel Core i5 4460 (4x 3,2 Ghz boxed with stock cooler which be used as there will be no overclock for the CPU) Ram: 8 GB Crucial Ballistix Sports 1600 mhz CL9 HDD: 1Tb Seagate 7200 rpm SSD: 250GB 840 EVO (like 5€ more expensive than the cheapest SSD with the same capacity) GPU: VTXD R9 380 2GB GPU PSU : EVGA 500B 80+ Bronze So my question for you guys is now 1. Will the PSU be enough? (I have to cut corners as the budget is already strechted to the max.) I think it should be fine . 2. If you want to critique the configuration please use the site www.geizhals.de to compare the prices. Please do not try to critique it by using PCpartpicker. It's not comparable. (Also please keep in mind that this is a young kid and he does not have an income. So don't come up with a PC that he can upgrade next month or something like that. Also he wouldn't be able to do that as he knows nothing about tech.) Thanks for reading this wall of text. Have a cookie. TL;DR Will The 500 W EVGA PSU be enough for an R9 380 (mild oc) and an i5 (without an oc)?
  17. 1. I kid mate. 2. It was said in the after party... There's is no archive.
  18. Allow me to qoute myself It's a thing Linus does. Supposedly he got abs from doing this 3:53 as he showed us on a Wan show to show that it is 'a real sport' .
