Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

With my 6S i was able to set an Orange as a fingerprint. Well one of those Lil'Cuties Clemintines anyway. Not really an orange. 

 

So given that a Clemintine works, I would venture to guess that a Dickprint would work. 

We're definitely in the future then.

Face ID would probably work for dicks too. Though there will probably be a much higher chance of it mistaking the user for a politician.

I vote anything EVGA, their warranty is fantastic and their customer support can be miracle workers. You'd also want to get the ICX card if you pick EVGA, no fun burning your VRM to the ground.

ICX EVGA for me. 

 

Well actually I'd get a founders edition, but of that bunch, the ICX

26 minutes ago, warmmilk said:

I'd go for EVGA, which ever is clocked higher.  EVGA cause they a have the best warrenty (have experience, super easy to deal with) and the higher clocked one cause higher clocked (although performance wise you really won't be able to tell a difference)...  performance wise brand to brand they're all close enough to not really matter

All I'm imagining is someone who wanted to see if they could set TouchID to work with a dick print.

You plan out your weekly dinners, lunches and breakfasts in order to save money. Its pretty great if money is tight.

It is in very good condition and has air lockers front and rear. They aren't too common around here so prices are a bit skewed.

But with it i could park in one of our "parking spaces" outside. (45* driveways down to the garages under the house (Unusable by anything other than a serious off roader..) 

I might consider it but normally I just eat at the spur of the moment
