Killed an old mainboard with a wrong placed jumper.

Have drown an Galaxy Note 3 in the toilet because the call vibration scared me.

I bought an APU.

 

I'm going to hell right? :)

Bye LTT. That was an interesting journey on this board. At least here you see how not to do it. I'll go shaking my head about this place.

It's meant to be used in an office system not for gaming. Fss these things doesn't even have L3 cache.

I have a spare HDMI cable and compatible screen for said cable, but I'm too lazy to switch out from VGA.

 

So sorry guys, don't hurt me.  :(

no, it was because game dev always make the same god damn thing over and over again, more alliens, more medieval, more 4 elemental magic.

 

but that was history , now I am full PC gamer mainly MMORPG where soloing and competing with cash players are even more fun in F2P than games I used to know. ANd I also enjoy racing. right now I am saving to get K90 RGB 

Yay! Praise GabeN!

It's fine. I did the same thing: VGA plus 100€ card (550Ti).

 

tbh I fail to see a difference between using VGA and DVI-D.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

Me either. Actually, I get a better picture quality out of my VGA monitor than I ever have off of DVI-D.

That is not a crime. VGA or DVI or DP or HDMI is just a cable. If it does what you want, there is no reason to upgrade off of it.

 

I bought a dell laptop. Never again

Might I ask why that is? I loved the 2 dells I had (one was a D630 with Nvidia and the other is a M90 that has had a few upgrades, but a busted screen).

I use the router issued to me by AT&T 2 years back.

 

I bought an SSD and barely use it for storage.

 

I bought a cube case (Corsair Air 540) and love it.

 

I pirated the shit out of all my music.

 

I own an Xbox One and don't really regret it even though I talk made boo boo about it.

 

All my mice and keyboards have been cheap pieces of shit except for my Logitech M570

 

I gamed for years on a P6510y with upgraded RAM and video card. It's now about to be in pieces.

Knowledge is power, guard it well.

I have 4:3 aspect ratio monitor at 1280x1024

You're not alone. I have a 1280x1024 monitor too. And it's 5:4 btw, not 4:3...

 

Gotta play dem games windowed at 1280x720, otherwise it looks wrong.

- I killed my first desktop PC by punching it, after a lost Urban Terror game.

 

- I killed a mobo by rubbing it with my bare hand to clean it (I was 11, and got a new one under warranty)

I don't care about overclocking.

 

My case is a mess.

 

I gamed with a cheap ball-mouse for over a year since I couldn't be bothered buying a laser mouse once the old one broke...

 

I have no idea how good my headphones sound, I have never compared them to others.

 

Oh and sometimes I skip the last 20 seconds of Linus's videos... I'm sorry, it's usually because I am on my phone so it takes MB's of my data pack.

 

I don't know anything about Mhz, ram speed or anything like that... I just read reviews and buy stuff.

So many things I could write here... things like this.
