The green monster?

The lean green action machine ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

Either way, you can let me know if you want a nice banner for the build log

Quite a few people actually play on WiFi with that card..

Crazy stuff, amirtie?!

Can't imaging it, but people say their ping is not much higher..

Yes it can be good but its not that stable than gaming on an LAN connection. i much prefer LAN

The Ping will rise and drop it think. and he is already spending that much money so why not spending more money on LAN :)

WiFi is more prone to interference and generally slower (in my case it was)

I love ethernet now :D

Yeah, I have a 50 ft cable going to my room. It had to go up a vent, into my parents room, then through their wall, into a vent, into my room.

But now I have a nice wired connection, and a switch so I have connection for my g4's

Two GTX 980s, an ROG SWIFT, a 730 Series SSD, and you're running your internet over USB 2.0?

 

 

Have you suffered a recent blow to the head?

Haha when it comes to networking I have no idea what I am doing. I posted the build a few times and no one said anything about the network card. I should just hardline it to my modem/router?

More me it goes up the stairs, through a wall and through another wall to my brother's room. (So that's like 15 meters already)

Into his switch, through another wall, into my room (~10 meters) and after that into my switch and into my PS3 and PC.

So worth it.

Thanks, I really like surround the only thing is that nvidia surround is not working very good with windows 8.1 yet. butt just for gaming its awsome. and i also think that you can't run the games on max settings with three of those monitors haha :D
