  1. That was my thought process. While we don't have a solution YET to completely stop bots we can at least try to slow them down in order to hopefully get them into the hands of others.
  2. I don't know a lot specifically to do with ReCAPTCHA however I understand the idea behind it. Would making people fill out a ReCAPTCHA at checkout not be a way to stop scalpers?
  3. Do you know what speed this new ram is? And do you have all the specs (including speed) for the old ram?
  4. Ahh interesting! Thank you! I'll for sure look into this, never heard of iSCSI so sounds like i've got a lot of reading up to do but it now sounds like it could be a practical just a pricey option. I've heard Linus talk about Unraid and FreeNAS before but to be honest still don't fully understand it. Thank you again!
  5. Interesting, thank you for the info! Sounds like while possible, it is not really practical which is a real shame. Sounds like the only real use case would be for much older (DRM free) titles that we not be updated but even then those titles are usually so small you're better off keeping them local and save the hassle of conflicting/overridden config files. Perhaps going with the cache system I saw would be better so at least I can save on download times
  6. Yeah I remember trying it quite a few years ago and having some pretty poor results with it randomly going blurry and input delay being a consist. Might be worth looking into again and seeing if any improvements have been made
  7. Hi there, We have a few different gaming computers in my household and started to think how it would be great if I could have some sort of set-up that allowed all machines to be able to run off the same local install of any game, in order to save space on every machine and not have 3 - 5 different installs of the same game. Tried googling it and didn't have much luck. Is this something that is even possible? and what would I need in order to pull it off? I remember seeing a video where Linus showed off a cache system so each machine could install the same game quicker but is there no way to point a server and have it fetch the files it needs and run the game like that? (Please forgive my complete lack of networking knowledge).
  8. Double checked and my board does support FM2+. I'll look into it. I tried overclocking even the smallest amount i could just now and my computer just freezes and i'm completely locked out. I have to hard reset to get it online again. I might go for that CPU because (In terms of when i bought them) the GPU is 'newer' and i haven't changed the cpu since when i first bought the system. I suppose it's also to have slightly more reliable hardware as well.
  9. Current Specs: Processor: AMD A8-6600K APU with Radeon HD Graphics 3.90GHz RAM: 1x8GB DDR3 1600MHz Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 2GB Motherboard: Gigabyte F2A58M-HD2 Storage: 256GB SSD Now in the long run. I'm planning on doing a whole new build with the lastest and greatest (within reason) but for now i still want just a little bit of a performance boost. As the motherboard is a FM2 Socket, i was thinking of getting the AMD Athlon X4-760K as it seems like the best CPU for this socket. I'm just worried if that will be enough to see a little bit of an increase or if i also need to get a better graphics card as well. Let me know what you guys think and if there is a better CPU for this socket. Thanks in advance.
