Hooray! I just voided my warranty for the great cause of looks. I painted my graphics card orange, with plasti dip, and it looks great on camera and looks pretty bad in real life. I'll re do it. Eventually. Does primer also peel of when plasti dip was sprayed on it? Or will I have to go with a "LTT themed" (probably not allowed to call it that) card if I ever decide to sell it after upgrading. 

#BlameSlick

Ok... Just to prove my point:
Build Log from 1 month ago:  Look at the vlog style in a supposedly studio quality video.
Build Log from 2 years ago: GOOOOD
I mean sure, the thumbnails better now. But in every other way the old video is superior.

Greece is so far down the hole.  The government is trying to blame anyone for their own mistakes.  

A fucking potato could overthrow the Greek government.
 
Dark humor edit: We all know what a potato did to the Irish government.

Thats a bummer.

Ah, yes: better because of ubiquity; that makes sense.
 
We should stop changing technology. Let's stick with SATA drives and VGA ports. Let's also go back to horse-drawn carriages instead of cars.

It looks like a shit cheap android phone from 2011. pls no

This is AMD's fault. They'd better tan intel's hide with Zen or we're all totally screwed.

What Apple does here is illegal..

Noticed a lot of misinformation around this, here and elsewhere...
 
TouchID is a hardware element. Not software, your fingerprint reader and it's hardware are coupled with the phone during manufacturing. The minute you turn the iPhone on and it gets flashed the first time, the two are irreversibly ties together. 
 
Its why Apple didn't repair their iPhones up until a year ago. You walked into a store with a broken home button? You got a new phone. Replacing the home button on your own would permanently violate the hardware security and render TouchID (and Apple Pay) null. It was always a security thing, nothing more. 
 
It it seems that in the past year, Apple changes that policy and is capable of repairing your TouchID sensor to the hardware, like from factory, though how often they do this is unknown as for Apple it's really that much easier to just replace a customer device either under warranty OR for the core charge on a device swap. 
 
Killing 3rd party repairs? Come on guys. Apple has several authorized repair centres, plenty of places that aren't from Apple themselves. They don't stop these guys. They simply provide a VALID way, using OEM parts. 
 
Actual 3rd parties who aren't authorized are a mixed bag. Who knows what they're doing, in hardware or software. Apple isn't "bricking" phones out of spite. TouchID is a security feature first, and since a lot of iOS 9 features can work off TouchID it's not like they're being vindictive or unfair in wanting people to have valid hardware in place. 

Sigh... Can people not keep doing this ARM vs x86 comparisons? They don't work.
 
Also Core M is super variable on manufacturer, Apple is known to do stupid ass shit resulting in really poopy load performance on their laptops.
 
Plus -U is a huge jump up from core M.
 
5W TDP isn't very impressive considering that's on the same configuration level as the i5 U series...

40% from bulldozer?   :lol:

As always, if it's from AMD themselves, take it with a grain a salt...
 
BUT I WANT TO BELIEVE

no young padawon stay on the iosmasterrace its brighter here. I once ventured out to the land of "android"

As an nVidia fan, yes finally, I hope it's really good. We need competition in the GPU market!

Not nearly as much as Nvidia. Tomb Raider which is the only recent game that uses AMD's code runs well on all cards.

I imagine this will happen in the future. However unless there's at least 16 Gb on the CPU die itself, there'd have to be some motherboard/chipset or OS kungfu trickery if there was traditional ram in addition to the HBM on the CPU die

I have seen some MOBILE games with transactions over 300USD
 
 
Fuck you too gameloft

17 years old is too old to not know about this, kid is lying and he just lost track or just didnt care how much he was spending.

Valve gives no fucks. Gaben already said making games is just not worth the investment. Easier to release more skins.

I'm not too bothered about this, I have a job plus games on PC tend to be pretty affordable now.

Well I don't have an iPhone, but I can't remember the last time I've physically connected my phone to my car to listen to music as opposed to using bluetooth, so I really don't think that would be that big of an issue.
 
I'm sure splitters or whatnot will be made available for those people that still do physically connect though.
 
Also, that concept design looks utterly stupid. Someone must not have put much time into making it.

As an Mechanical Engineering College Student, aside from my desktop, I've used a laptop with an i5-4200m and it's integrated GPU is more than enough for CAD. Is it enough for simulations? No. But then again that's what the desktop is for. I really don't see a real practical use/justification for this. Not to metion the fact that that's the most unprofessional laptop I've ever seen aimed at anyone working in the engineering field. We don't want this ugly shit MSI. This isn't some dank RGB OC SUPER BRIGHT laptop for engineers.

I don't care about eSports at all.
 
I guess this'll make Activision-Blizzard more MLG? (bad joke, sorry)
