  1. But I can also not spend $500-1000 more than I would with an msi or dell xps just so I can get the apple logo on my laptop.
  2. Going to college and need suggestions for laptops that I should purchase. I would like to keep it under $2000 so keep that in mind. I want a laptop with a 4k resolution and an i7, and I'm going to bring my desktop with me so the laptop doesn't need a 1080 or anything crazy. Need something where I can do school work and watch movies, but also play some games if I don't feel like sitting at a desk.
  3. For 250ohm headphones you are going to want to buy an amp, otherwise why would you buy them if you know they won't reach their full potential without an amp. I understand that onboard will power them, but the experience won't be as good as it could have been with an amp.
  4. Beyerdynamic DT990(really any good HEADPHONES will work) + antlion modmic > Any "gaming headset" Of course you will need an amp to power the DT990's if you were to buy the 250 ohm version. I would ask around about what people use for an amp, but Fii0 and schiit make really good products. Beyerdynamic DT990- https://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-DT990-PRO-250ohm-Straight/dp/B010IJ9W1U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487199546&sr=8-2&keywords=dt990 FiiO e10k- https://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E10K-Headphone-Amplifier-Black/dp/B00LP3AMC2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1487199503&sr=1-1&keywords=FiiO+e10k Schiit Magni 2- http://schiit.com/products/magni-2 Modmic 5- https://www.amazon.com/Antlion-Audio-Modular-Attachable-Microphone/dp/B01MCYRKY3/ref=sr_1_1?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1487199618&sr=1-1&keywords=modmic+5 A1 setup right there. Either of those amps will do for the DT990's, so its personal preference but I would go with the Schiit Magni 2.
  5. This is what I meant by my decision to get 250 ohm, just need to know what headphones would be the best option.
  6. I've had the Sennheiser HD598's for awhile now, and I really like them but I want to buy something that has a little more bass because the lows on the 598's are not as good as I would like them to be. I want to spend under $200, and I'm leaning towards Beyerdynamic right now, but I'm not sure if I should buy the dt 770, 880, or 990 pro (250 ohm b/c I have a dac/amp). I'm open to any suggestions, and I want headphones that are going to be comfortable for long listening sessions and to play games like CS:GO. Thanks for the help!
  7. I would sell my 970. Not going to pay $300 when I could sell it and only pay $100 for one/two cards that would perform better.
  8. Obviously I'm going to wait until more benchmarks are released.
  9. Currently have a 970, but I'm going to upgrade as soon as I can to a new card(s). Just need to know about whether I should buy two RX480's or one 1070. I have a 144hz panel so I want to know which option will give me the best results. The games I play include GTA V, Battlefield, CS:GO(not GPU intensive, I know), DayZ, and the Assassin's Creed series. Just want to hear what you guys think on this, so any information would be greatly appreciated! Budget is $400ish so the 1080 isn't an option.
  10. Recently I purchased a 3930k and a sabertooth x79 motherboard to upgrade from z77 cause I'm cheap and didn't want to spend extra on DDR4 xD. But I'm just wondering how far could you all overclock the CPU to, I've heard of people clocking them really high before, and I would like to know what voltage you guys had too. Thanks!
  11. I honestly have no clue, but I hope it will be on youtube so I can see it. So tired of waiting for it at this point!
  12. Damn, I really liked watching all of his content earlier than it would be on youtube. Not sure if I'm going to get a vessel subscription though.
  13. Didn't Linus say that when the year was up we would still get to watch his content on vessel? At least that is what I remember, so any input on this would be great!
  14. I've already found a 3930k that is in my price range and I've been looking around for motherboards too. I do need the extra cores that X79 offers because of what I'll be using it for.
  15. Totally forgot that z97 was still ddr3, but I still would rather go with X79 for the extra cores
