  1. Most of the pics are unflattering. Without the hollywood make-up, clothes and lighting they would get lost in a crowd. Teressa Palmer is the only naturally smokin' hot girl out of the lot. I'm pretty sure most people are hoping for a sex tape of Jennifer Lawrence. Meh. Waste of bandwidth.
  2. How old are they ? By a certain age, it's not all that interesting anymore.
  3. America big. Infrastructure costly. Big business strong. Romania ...
  4. You'd need a molex to 6-pin and also a sata to 6-pin since your PSU has 2x6-pin and those cards require 4x6-pin. http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/extreme2/extreme2-725/ Technically is should work since there's 600w on the 12v rails. That PSU only has 3 molex connections so you can only use 1 molex to 6-pin adapter. You'd need to purchase a Sata to 6-pin as well.
  5. HD 5450 will play 1080p high settings. HD 5450 / 5550 / 5570 / HD 6450 / 6570 / 6670 / HD 7730 / 7750 / R7 240 / 250. Any of those.
  6. Hey guys, Wanting to pick up the G3258 + lga1150 mobo in order to upgrade my old lga775 rig. NCIX is closed today in their Surrey and Langley locations. Any popular big box places sell processor and motherboards ? I'll wait until tomorrow for NCIX to open, just strange I can't find any other local places that sell these.
  7. Buddhism isn't tied to the creation of the world and an afterlife. It's more about attaining nirvana during your lifetime. Nobody knows what Shintoism is. Islam get's bashed hard all the time, 40 virgins after death etc, martyrdom etc. Christianity is the most prolific religion where most of these discussions take place. Christianity also starts from the beginning of time and the beginning of man, there isn't much written and science is on the forefront, so people from Christianity still hanging onto adam and eve as literally happening and the earth forming in 7 days by the hand of god will take a verbal beating. Christianity also has an afterlife involving a heaven and a hell. Since this can't be proven either and the onus is on the one who claims it to be true, an Atheist can have a field day with this one as well. More progressive denominations include science and still stick to their teachings of how one conducts themselves during their life while not preaching to others. The majority of Christian teachings and rituals do not involve incessant worship, strict adherence or requirement to spread the gospel. Rather, the 'religious' part has more to do with building a good foundation in life and prospering while helping out your fellow man. If people want to stereotype all Christians based on their encounters or their research, that is up to them.
  8. With GOTG success, they are working on a sequel. They also have too many movies in development or set to be released over the next 3-5 years, so, it isn't a good business model to go into even more obscure MU characters. If anything I believe they would attempt a spin-off of GOTG and have rocket and groot in it's own film. They usually sink $150-$200 million into each movie, plus another $75-$100 million in marketing. You'd have to really be an insider to know exactly how the gears work at Marvel. Personally I don't care. I don't enjoy Superhero movies. I watched Captain America : Winter Soldier last night and it was excellent for the first hour and a bit, than I started losing interest at it went into mindless action and generic plot-lines. If they could cut 30 minutes of fat off these movies and discard the side characters which don't deserve screen time, I could get into it. I did enjoy Batman Begins however.
  9. Tender juicy chicken encased in a layer of crispy deep fried batter with undertones of sin and hate. That shit sucks. Makes me feel like goat ass for the next week. Might as well pour lighter fliuid on my nutsack and torch 'em.
  10. I like the 4K recording camera and djbrand is awesome for offering bamboo skins.
  11. 4690k, purely for thermals. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117372&cm_re=i5_4690k-_-19-117-372-_-Product all other parts r excellent.
  12. Just google LoL benchmarks. Let me do it for u http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/league-of-legends-performance-benchmark,3484-7.html
  13. 1. Streamlined 2. Syncing through Itunes 3. Less buggy apps / Less crashing 4. Get accepted into an elite club at coffee shops and also allows you to pick up woman quicker (add-on golden retriever puppy for 300% greater results).
  14. If you jump up a price bracket and want a z97 chipset, grab one with the ALC1150 audio codec for a much better onboard audio solution. Otherwise, they are all pretty well the same, a PCI-E 3.0 x16 slot and a second PCI-E 2.0 slot. x8/x8 PCI-E 3.0 comes at the $120+ price point, but you stated you probably won't crossfire, you wouldn't need to go above that price point. If you want M.2 or SATAe, keep an eye out for that, but the usefulness of those technologies is still up in the air. PCI-E SSD's is where it will be at.
  15. A motherboard is a motherboard in most cases. Unless you plan to run 2 video cards, this will be fine. I like their Extreme series more than the Pro since it has more bells and whistels, but 90% of people don't use or notice the bells and whistles.
  16. Just flash the Z87 Asus mobo and run your new i7-4790K since it has better thermals over the 4770k. The Gaming 5 has an M.2 port and SATAe port, but are you going to use those ? Asus ROG has a mPCI-E slot and quicker SSD's are out and more coming out for the PCI-E slots, so that feature is squashed. Onboard audio goes to the Asus, better VRM for overclocking ex. 60amp chokes. Gaming 5, re-sell with plastic still on.
  17. What kind of laptop do you have that's worth $4000AUD ? A silverstone raven case will allow you to mount the mobo 90 degrees so you're not stacking cards.
  18. Although many motherboard vendors did release BIOS versions that allow for overclocking of K-series CPU's, I think Gigabyte only did that for H87 and B85, not sure about H81, grab a non-OC chip or OC mobo. http://www.eteknix.com/ecs-introduces-h87b85h81-overclocking-too/
  19. A10 7xxx of whichever. low/med on 720p. http://www.eteknix.com/complete-amd-kaveri-review-a10-7850k-a10-7700k-a8-7600/11/
  20. Crossfire rig with 1-year warranty and a 27" Dell 1440p IPS display. http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1411&products_id=28026 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=558_1384&products_id=25618
