I don't know any specifics of QC for things like batteries but I would put the opus of battery testing on the manufacturer. Samsung is a customer in this case the product the vendor is selling to them should have been QC'd before even being shipped to them. See the thing I've learned about QC especially since I work in logistics currently is the cost that it takes to have someone design a system (software), another person to design the hardware, another person to support it (for a qc system or any system for that matter that is automated) etc. add up to a lot of money. I'm being generous when I'm saying paying "a person" because it'll most likely be a group of people. You'd have to have specialized mechanics for the machines and if you use a vendor for all of those things the rate that they would charge you if something goes wrong/needs support is astronomical. Ultimate I definitely understand what you're saying and I'm of the mind that yes every battery needs to be tested before shipped to a customer or put in a product. Someone in this thread said that Samsung themselves produced the batteries and if true then they should have QC'd every single one and it's totally Samsung's fault in that case.

The batteries are checked by the manufacturer or at least they are supposed to be. Yes samsung has to QC their phones but there are very few industries that QC every single product they produce. The cost of that would just be too high to sustain.

Well sorry to break it to you. It's not going to be cheap as fuck if it is competitive with it's intel counterpart. It may be cheaper but it'll be priced similarly.

Maybe you need to read a book on using proper punctuation jk man. But what if I read books online? OT: To be honest its incredible what people can do now a days with how integrated everything is.

Not accusing you of that, because I say the same thing at times. OT: Well it will take enormous publc pressure from people and businesses alike to stop the government from getting what it wants but you know people don't like to pay attention to real problems or do anything about them.

Admiration for what Manning did, and disregard for calling Manning a "He/She". I don't care though that's just something people need to get over.

I just use "Everything" to find what I'm looking for now. It works very quickly. Dare I say just as fast if not faster than windows' built in search feature.

Windows 10 search from the taskbar and star tmenu has been pretty useless in my case so I would not miss it.

I got my 500 GB 850 EVO for $155 USD, so I don't even thing that 25 bucks is really worth it.

Track Days Not a perfect solution, but it's something.

That is the only thing on my mind.

I love that little typo there or was it done on purpose hmmmm OT: I will finally be able to play a modern Halo game on PC finally. Ugh. I had to resist the urge to get an Xbone just for Halo.

There has been no truer statement lol

Because that's how people are. I've been working in IT for like 6 years now. I've seen people freak out about the littlest things everywhere I've been. You won't believe how many times I've heard "It doesn't work like before," "Why do I have to do this now, fix it," having to reboot every time is annoying and if it's happening in a large company imagine the number of tickets and call you'd get for an issue that can't be fixed by the IT of the business until Intel issued the hardware fix. That's what I'm talking about. I couldn't give two shits about home users. I even said I don't view it as a big deal personally, but at work shit like that gets annoying quick.

You're misunderstanding what I'm saying, people who have the issue would freak out that's what I meant by most. I wasn't talking about the number of people who experienced the issue.

Idk man in an enterprise environment with a bunch of people that aren't tech savy the smallest things become the biggest problems, and they would be annoying their ITs to fix and issue that they can't. These things blow up man. I work in IT I see it first hand all the time.

You and I both know for most people that will be an issue. (And it's rather annoying) I agree with you though it's not that big deal of a deal.

A quick google search would have answered your question There's this: http://us.hardware.info/news/35295/haswell-has-usb-30-issues-with-14-out-of-22-tested-usb-drives This: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Haswell-S3-Sleep-Problem-PCN,21896.html And this: http://techreport.com/news/24441/report-intel-haswell-suffers-from-usb-3-0-issue

SHHHHHHH Don't tell me the placebo effect is real allow me to believe what I want.

This has to be the silliest argument I've ever read it literally doesn't matter if it's PGA or LGA. If you drop your CPU and bend a pin that's your fault. I've bent pins on 8350 about 3 times being clumsy and I've fixed it myself within half an hour each time. I also unbent my friend's 8320 pins (his had bent pins from the get go while again mine were bent me being clumsy).

People might be so used to Qualcomm that they just don't trust any other SoC because literally they all used to suck unless it was a Qualcomm chip. I could be wrong and this is just speculation on my end. It could just be a supply issue but you would think they would have sorted that out by now they have been making their own SoCs for a while.

The $379 Price tag is not the founder's edition price. That is normal price. Founders eidtion for the 1070 is $450. The 1080 you have the correct price for the founder's edition.

The 1080 starts at $599 USD. The 1070 starts at $379 USD Those prices are for non founders editions only.

He's probably talking about these "benchmarks" These look as fake as fake can be. Since these benchmarks conveniently "leak" when NVIDIA's do although Polaris cards have probably been sent out long before NV's launch event, not no one else besides videocardz is reporting on this so take this with a FAT grain of salt. Also notice how a Polaris 11 part performs better than a Polaris 10 part. Literally makes no sense. Link: http://videocardz.com/59725/nvidia-gtx-1080-polaris-10-11-directx12-benchmarks
