    Darknar the Black reacted to LinusTech in HighLANder - The World's Highest Elevation LAN Party... EVER!   
    So it will be a while before Guinness sorts through our footage to validate the world world for themselves, but it was definitely the highest altitude LAN party (okay... someone on a plane could have gamed higher up, but we're talking while still on land here) EVER!
     
    This project was a blast and wouldn't have been possible without help from a LOT of people including the Tek Syndicate team, Austin Evans, the NeweggTV guys, and OF COURSE our sponsors.


     
    Huge thanks first to ASUS for providing us with the router we used at the top, the funding we needed to get our teams out there, and of course a dozen of their latest RoG gaming notebook the G550JK, which you can check out in this video here:
     

     
    Oh... and did I mention in the above video I've got details for how you can WIN the very notebook that I gamed on at the top of the mountain? Did I also mention that it's signed by me, Logan, Paul, Kyle, Luke, and Qain????
     
    But don't worry if you don't win one. Newegg's got a deal going right now where you get an exclusive bundle if you buy one at this link. Check it out!

    Our next big thank you goes out to Intel. They partnered with us to help pay many of the people involved including members of our teams. Oh and I guess they also made the efficient quad core Core i7 processors that went inside the G550JK notebooks we carried up the mountain. If they consumed more power and output more heat, then those would have been pretty difficult to lug up there!


     
    Speaking of difficult to lug, our final sponsor, Corsair, was probably laughing at us when they sent their (awesomely built, but a touch heavy) all new Vengeance K95 and K70 RGB keyboards to us to game with at the summit. I cannot fault the build quality of these outstanding keyboards, and as long as the one I get once they're released ends up sitting on my desk instead of strapped to my back, then everything is going to be okay...

    Which is this specific model but I think the Dark Knight II itself is the same thing.

    I'ma go with 8 with aftermarket mods Q2A has 8 keys for dirt cheap, and it's lightness has shown to be helpful w/ framerates on my friends PC (about 3~4 fps improvement even higher on "optimal pcs") and it's faster boot times, can be helpful and I'm under a personal belief on 8 it's soooo terrible in somesituations but in others its okay, as to where 7 fits just about anywhere but a tablet...

    For people buying it for the first time, whatever's cheaper so 8.1 I think.
     
    -If you can get heavy discounts, 7
    -If you have an old pc somewhere you should attempt to call Microsoft and have em transfer the license to your new rig.
    -If you're not going to bother to call Microsoft but still exercise your right to use a license you already own then whatever you want (btw this is my helpful justification for you so you don't get in trouble for openly saying you're going to pirate it, under those narrow circumstances (you already have a valid license) it's sort of ok)
     
    And for the record, let's not kid ourselves here: SteamOS beta it's not really quite a viable option yet and most people who opt for "No OS" are intimidated and wouldn't bother overall with Linux, so whenever I see most stores like NCIX offer a "No OS" option if a definitive "don't ask, don't tell" policy that implies "We know you're pirating it or using a grey area option"

    Darknar the Black reacted to Gung Pow Chicken in Is Day-Z really worth the money?   
    I personally think so because the game is awesome but it's all user preference.  If you want to experience the game then yes pay for it, if your not that interested in it don't buy it.

    can't tell what it is since it's still in Alpha stage I'm sure when it's released it will be triple A so far for still being in Alpha Stage it looks pretty damn good also don't listen to people who bitch about the devs not caring or updating the game. with in the last 3weeks two big ass updates/patches have been released for the game also if you go by profit DayZ was Triple A with in the first month of it's release it held first place for top seller for like 2 months and even now is still in the top 10
