Yay I could stalk people better

Come at me.
 
PCMR argues its superiority for the wrong reasons, and why console plebs find PCMR to be irritating and foolish. Argue with me, if you'd like, but I feel like a lot of the arguments are not actually as solid as people would like to think. The ignorance of the PCMasterRace matches the ignorance they claim these console plebs have.
 
Somebody build me a $350 computer, with decent peripherals included, that can run all games on decent settings (ranging from 720-1080p), with a TDP of 100w, and is easy to set up. It also can't be based on Black Friday sales, used components, or old parts you "found throughout the house," because an Xbox One isn't based on any of those.
 
Come at me.
 
1) PC gaming is cheaper.
A: Dependent. What if, as I have now, I buy an Xbox One for $350, and get Destiny, Halo MCC, and Halo 5. I bought Destiny on sale for $30, with Xbox Live for $30, so that's a grand total of $530, and that's all I want. Now, to get a decent gaming computer to play all current games, I'm looking at a minimum of an i5-4440 and GTX 750 Ti, which could last awhile, but cost $500-600 depending on what else you buy on the PC (I've built 750 Ti & Pentium G3258 PCs for $500 with all the bling). Now include peripherals, then games, aaaaaannddd... The Xbox One was cheaper. Oh, well, that shouldn't happen, or be true, but it is. Also, people still buy games on release for PC at the full $60.
 
You can argue a G3258 is enough, but I disagree, since Far Cry 4 can't accommodate for Dual Cores, but the Xbox One can play FC4 fine.
 
2) Building a PC isn't hard.
A: It's not hard, but can be frustrating if you do something wrong. I can't say that "building a PC is hard" is a very effective argument, but I can easily argue, "I plugged in my Xbox, updated, and was ready to play." It was extremely easy, and still cheaper. Building a PC isn't hard, but setting up a console is even easier.
 
3) You have to deal with a cruddy community and little kids on a console.
A: I've met some really cool people on Destiny, and some really stupid kids on TF2. It's hard to summarize a community like that.
 
4) You can play with friends online.
A: It's 50x easier and cheaper to play with four friends in local multiplayer than setting up four laptops and computers for one game at one place.
 
5) You have to buy an entirely new console when Microsoft releases one.
A: And you have to upgrade a PC with the new consoles to match the new demands these new games might have. Ubisoft is a bad example, but a GTX 780 in the recommended specs for Watch_Dogs? That's probably just poor optimization, but I don't think PC will be getting the same great optimization that consoles have. There is also development on the Xbox 360 going on still, so you can easily wait for the next console to go down a little cheaper.
 
What do I think PCMR has? Obviously, a mouse and keyboard is undeniably the easier and better way to play. Not always comfortable for a couch or in local multiplayer, but the better way to play for a single gamer at a desk. Higher resolutions and better graphics is a major bonus for PC gaming. I'll argue with console plebs when one says the other is better, you're not buying the console for graphics, you're buying it for the exclusives, features, and controller. PC has the superior everything else. Modding support and better indie support, not to mention the constant F2P and reliance on digital media instead of physical discs (I prefer digital, but my internet is so bad). PC is, when you can afford it, the superior way to play games, but consoles are still great and serve a good purpose. At the price point they're being sold at, it's perfectly fine.
 
I like having a super PC, but the total and utter disrespect for consoles on here is ridiculous. They serve a purpose and they serve it well, I'm glad I own an Xbox One because of the games like Destiny and MCC. I have a minimum of 120 hours invested in Destiny already, but not so much on my PC for the past few months.
 
I'm also waiting for FC4 to go on sale for PC. I'd much rather have it on PC than console.

well the store just crashed

Just received the email today:
In short, vote before October 20, 2014 and during October 23-27 you are able to redeem the game. You would have to register through Playfire to get your steam code unfortunately. Its available to only 18+ users as the game is 18+ (so make sure you have the right birthday to qualify .

You have to install windows first. the CD that came with the motherboard contain the drivers which you install in windows as soon as it is up and running. I would recommend to only install the network driver from the cd and to download the rest from the manufacturers website.

You want Chameleon bootloader. It's themeable and does exactly what you want.

No idea if it's repostavo 

We've been begging EA for a HD remake of the excellent NFS Underground 2 (which is 10 years old now) for a long time. It hasn't happened yet, but thanks to the gaming community we CAN do it. Before you start your game must be patched to 1.2 and it must be a cracked exe.
 
Step 1:
Download UniWS - http://www.wsgf.org/article/universal-widescreen-uniws-patcher
 
Step 2:
Patch your cracked exe - it's as simple as selecting a game from the drop down menu, selecting the game installation folder, set the new screen resolution and clicking patch
 
Step 3:
Launch the game and set the resolution to 640x480. While you're there max out all the other graphical settings.
 
Step 4:
Download the TexMod v2 - http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/47157499/file.html
 
Step 5:
Extract it and run "texmod.exe"
 
Step 6:
Under target application select the Speed2.exe (which should now be patched) and under Package mode click the folder icon button click browse and select the *.tpf that came in the same folder
 
Step 7:
Click Run and wait for the game to launch. Don't worry if you see a black screen for a bit, that's normal.
 
Enjoy!

It would be sweet if everyone created a city full of buildings that are actually computers, then have the plumbing be water cooling and cool all of them!

I know this will draw hate as is common on criticism, keep in mind this is my opinion and I'm sure Linus will do fine when shifting his content on to a different demographic altogether. Afterall, smartphones and general consumer gadgets are popular watching and I'm sure many of Linus' new audience is here and ready to defend him. But this is constructive criticism, so I would appreciate the same gesture in return.
 
 
Having been watching LTT for a long time, it has gone increasingly downhill over a long period of time for me:
 
Linus prioritizing boutique video quality sacrificing all quantity and depth of insight. We're down to less than a video a day, and the ones we get are usually shorter and less opinionated/ insightful. Forgetting who the audience is with an increasing number of consumer gadgets, (seriously, a wi-fi plant humidifier??) mobile phones, and other borderline tech of fringe interest to PC enthusiasts, even further lowering the quantity of content desired. Getting on the same release bandwagon as all. the. other. tech. channels. Every video with a product I want to watch either doesn't exist at all or is covered by OC3D, Linus, TekSyndicate, TastyPC, SWEclockers and HardwareCanucks ALL AT ONCE. Random WAN show guests that I very often find to be irrelevant and annoying. Getting that weird uncomfortable YouTube "buddy club" vibe that just kind of smells bad to me. Josh from Fractal being an exception. Why go to PAX? There are hundreds of YouTube channels doing PAX. Just why? Where are all the hidden gems in PC hardware? Have Linus completely abandoned reaching out to manufacturers for samples of interesting new coolers, cases, NAS boxes, you name it? It just seems Linus is more interested in autonomy, getting all the same stuff as everyone else, and losing touch with the market. It used to be about consumer enlightenment, showcasing stuff you might not have heard of. Remember the Thermaltake Tt eSports BAG? That kind of thing. I bought one because of Linus. What has Linus shown me in the past 6 months that I wanted to buy afterwards? Absolutely nothing, I'm afraid.  
But the final step that is probably going to make me unsubscribe, is not going to Computex. Seriously, that is gutting. That is a stone-cold knife in the back to the original audience of the channel, to whom Computex is probably the highlight of the entire year, after the huge thrill of covering it last year. I could forgive anything from Linus but not that.
 
It makes me sad, as Linus Tech Tips has been my very favourite channel for years, but now it is my least favourite of all my subscriptions.
 
My 2 rubel, anyway.

Hey there, 
 
EDIT: The following works:
 
FREE $10 worth in amazon appstore coins (or even more if you havent done the GTA trick yet):
 
Just Click on "get now with 1 click" on every app in the following link: (they are all free at the moment)
You simply get 200 coins for every app you take for free.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nav_sap_mas_memday&_encoding=UTF8&hidden-keywords=B00C25OI36%7CB00J99WN9Y%7CB0091QS88K%7CB005ZFOOE8%7CB00I0WCIMI
 
GTA Trick: buy it with 700 coins and get 2000 coins + the game in return
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HCU7OCI
 
 
EDIT: The Following does NOT work anymore
Amazon is having this deal where you basically get $22 worth of amazon coins and GTA San Andreas Mobile all for free.
 
How it works
1) Click Buy on the 9 apps I link below, these apps are temporarily Free
-> Every app will give you 100 amazon coins
-> no need to download them on your phone or anything.
 
2) Click Buy with Coins on the the GTA San Andreas Mobile App I linked below
-> you're using the coins you just earned by "buying" free apps to buy this one
-> This will give you 2000 amazon points which is worth $20
=> Amazon may figure this out at some point.. but you still have $9 worth of amazoncoins + 9 apps by now
 
3) Profit.
-> you now have GTA San andreas Mobile + 2200 coins worth $22 + 9 apps that you'd have to pay for normally
 
ps: Make sure they are still free when you are trying this + they still give you 2000 coins for buying gta san andreas mobile

Yes, this is on the US amazon app store but you can just use either a fake physical address or use borderlinx.com to get an american address if you don't live in the USA.
I'm from Belgium myself..

I really like it! you should cover other things like a NAS or an external hard drive and make a little town on your desk This sure is one of the most original builds I have seen in a while.

FYI, since you were interested, see above.

The fans I've ordered are two wire mate. A modern GPU fan is four wire. They're not voltage controlled any more they are PWM or pulse width modulation. Basically it works like a strobe light by flashing voltage to the fan. The slower the pulse the slower the fan, faster the pulse etc...
 
Edit.. Sorry man got a little confused there.. I think the MSI fans are PWM.. I would need to check but you could be onto something there if they're not....
 
 
 
Yeah I know man nothing I can do about it right now sorry
 
They will be back shortly

Amazing! Just awesome! Thank you very, very much!
 
Thanks, I used taht site and it worked flawlessly. Thief is in my library now didnt even have to use VPN for it

just use this site to add a new credit card number and a US address.
