  1. Both those links lead to the same place.... EDIT: Ok based on my research, I'm guessing the 59 is newer and has a nicer base so that's basically the only difference.
  2. Free 100 down/20 up bundled with rent (Bell Canada)
  3. I walked into the store and it took less than 5 seconds I don't even know why I was making such a big deal out of this. Once again thank you everyone for solving my problem!
  4. Thanks so much! Really I'm sorry it was such a stupid question.
  5. If you're on a really tight budget and aren't planning to play anything higher than 1080p, 60fps, then you don't even really need a GPU. Something like a Ryzen 2400G would do decently at this level. (Especially with the shortage going on) AMD; FreeSync Monitors are cheaper than GSync Very Good Price/Performance Power hungry and so usually run pretty hot so harder to OC a lot Nvidia: GSync more expensive than FreeSync Great performance, especially in AAA games since NVidia's been doing some shady shit behind scenes optimizing games for Nvidia and AMD's not happy about it More power efficient so easier to OC a lot tl;dr: Buy something that fits your price range and that you need for your level of use. You will end up regretting going way overboard and not being able to use up all that sweet sweet performance (from personal experience)
  6. No I didn't really get an option I just talked to a customer service representative who said they would email me a shipping label that I had to stick onto the box and that was it. I'm not really sure what they meant by "central post" and didn't want to seem like a complete retard there so I just said oh alright and left. Atleast here I can be a complete retard anonymously.
  7. Ok so I bought a motherboard on newegg that said it was Ryzen 2000 ready on the website but when I received the board it clearly did not have the sticker saying it was and reviews said it was a crappy board too (AsRock AB350M Pro4 for anyone in the market still) so I'm trying to return it. I got my RMA number, shipping label etc. however I'm new to this country and have no idea how to send a package. The front desk of my dorm does send out packages but they said that "central post" picks it up every morning. The shipping label is from what I'm guessing is UPS and not Canada Post so I'm not sure whether just dropping it off at the post office will get it sent? Can someone please help me out with this? I'm sorry if it's really stupid but this is literally my second time ordering something online.
  8. yeah I know I can buy shit in Jafliyah/Al Ain Center but it's all stupidly over priced and it would make a lot more sense if I brought the stuff from here. I just need a way to get the Ryzen CPU to work thats all. Just don't know how
  9. yeah that's what I was thinking. Any motherboards you'd recommend? Not going to be overclocking it or anything just need it all to be as stable as possible.
  10. I'm trying to build my parents an internet box. Nothing too special just something my mom can browse facebook/watch youtube videos on. I was looking at the new Ryzen APU's that came out but I;m not exactly sure what the deal is with the motherboards and bios flashes and what not. I need advice on whether the new Ryzen stuff is worth all this hassle or if I should just save myself the trouble and get an i3 or a pentium. I'll be buying the parts in Canada and taking them back home to the UAE so I probably won't be able to get those boot kits either. I could maybe try buying the motherboard instore at a Canada Computers or something and get them to flash the BIOS there but I'm not so certain they could do that. Any help deciding is appreciated!
  11. what if the sous vide bag breaks and you have pieces of chicken or whatever in your loop?
  12. I recommend adreN_TV on Youtube for more of the advanced stuff like smokes and flashes, eco rounds, etc. As for the more basic stuff you can google "How to become better and CS:GO" and the usual aim for the head, crosshair placement, etc. will come up.
  13. mine is on a powerbar and it works fine. I have a computer, a router and a landline plugged into the same bar too so it should work for you too
  14. I am honestly the least creative person I know and am having the worst time trying to come up with a story for a text-based RPG game I'm trying to create for school and I thought why not ask on here? When I finish the thing, I promise to upload it on here.Won't be the best game in the world, but then again I just started learning how to code haha Currently has a proper character attribute selection system with something kind of like the SPECIAL system in Fallout as well as many fight sequences planned.
  15. Thank you so so much for that it was just bugging me how they used a function inside another function and you really helped clarify that

    GTA V

    oh COMPLETELY. You have enough story and side quests to do to last at least 100 hours of gameplay (if you redo the heists using the alternative methods)

    GTA V

    it's on sale right now and it's a pretty good game so I'd say it is worth it. The story is fantastic and so is the gameplay but online isn't fun without friends to play with.
  19. I thought girls had penises too.... I was not a smart 5 year old.
  20. few? more like once in the monitor's lifetime.
  21. I'd get an H100i instead of that single rad because you're not going to be able to OC a lot with just one rad. Always have a minimum of double rads for overclocking each component. Everything is either perfect or exactly how you might like it
  22. I use it like I'm bunny hopping (and failing miserably) in CS:GO
  23. It's not about the size, it's about how you use it.
