1080p phones, it really doesn't make a big difference, 720p is just fine for my almost 5" galaxy s3 screen

i7 2600 | HD 6870 | 8GB Memory | 120GB Samsung 840 EVO | 500W PSU | Fractal Define R4



I have a lot of upgrade plans, and no money  :)

Thermal paste. I just use my toothpaste.

Seriously, the asus DCUii is overrated, along with touchscreen laptops, ebay prebuilt pc listings (for non techies or educated), google chrome.

Linux. I'm not going to say it's bad, because it's not, but I think that Windows is legitimately the better option for most people and purposes (though you can't beat 'free' when it comes to price-performance ratio).

Yes is overrated by all of that awesome 3% desktop market share  :rolleyes:

 

Anyway back on topic: Flagship phones lately, 1440p on a screen smaller than 10 inches it's just stupid, even 1080p is unnecessary for the price asked: Kinda like how everyone likes a medium range PC built for 700-1000 bucks but they're willing to pay 700 bucks for a top of the line smartphone.

LMG video content

Yes, ever since linus left NCIX to form LMG he cut off his access to the thousands of products from NCIX warehouses, which lead to crappy videos about crappy things no one actually cares about.

Toothpaste is terrible for doing any decent overclocks, besides your cpu cooler comes with thermal paste, why the hell would use use toothpaste? Plus that stuff dries out after not too long.

 

As for your other comment, I agree with you up until you mentioned touchscreen laptops. You have clearly never used one for more than a few minutes because once you get use to them you will never want to go back to regular laptops, unless they have an amazing track pad, which only applies to macbooks.

 

 

 

unless you're video editing or doing creative work in general, how many tabs do you have open?????

 

 

Single monitor noob. Try using two or three monitors then tell us how useless 16GB is.

Would you like to meet my friends sarcasm and irony? They're quite friendly really, but they are a bit misunderstood.
