What's something so overrated but not actually that good?

Watercooling. It's nice and all, but it's just. not. necessary.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

The Metric system is completely overrated

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs

No. Imperial. The rest of the world uses metric.

Gaming PCs. My XBONE can play better games that look better than gaming PCs, the XBONE just has better hardware, it's not PCs fault. :/

That's why it's overrated. It's only truly better than imperial for laboratory measurements.

Cloud stuff, "it's the future"... Don't think so.

HP is overrated as hell, "it's not actually that good" tbh it's the biggest crap you can get in the pc world.

A friend of me worked in a pc store, and they had piles of notebooks, HP's, broken. He was like "put them in the oven! it fixes them" and most of them did really worked after being in the oven. For a couple of months...

How bad is your stuff if an OVEN fixes them?

We did this: 

Exacly the same notebook, but we had 13 of them. and we fixed 11 of them for a couple of months. After that, they needed a revisit in the oven, but after a second time, i think half of them were completely dead. Can't remember that part...

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Spying on everyone to fight against terrorism is like shooting a mosquito with a cannon

No i'm pretty sure it's Dell. They used BTX motherboards. At least HP used ATX.

It's not as huge a deal as Nvidia touts it to be, but I love physics-simulated stuff in my games. Arkham City was a great example- it actually was pretty cool.

But, alas, one in a hundred games use the GPU physics- many games use PhysX, but not then Nvidia-specific tech. It's a viable alternative to Havoc, and most games use it. It's the hardware-accelerated stuff that's rare.

Dell made a lot of crap, but today they have some nice things. Not a lot, but at least they are going the right way, a bit... The dell XPS12 linus uses is actally quite good, if you see what it survived.

I know, but PhysX is widely used- there are really two types of it.

Yeah, their AIOs are pretty good. I gotta get one for my dad to use instead of our old C2D Gateway system.

Beats, Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E 7, XBOX One, Adobe Photoshop/After Effects, Facebook, etc

 

Windows

 

Try Linux people. Updatemanagment and security. What a breeze to work on.

 

I actually REALLY like Linux Mint. The only reason I won't get it is because my Favorite Game doesn't support Linux </3
