Why do you have Xsplit: a video recording/streaming software and Bandicam: a video recording software at the same time?

So you can record the thing you are recording :P  
Think of it as a backup, if your Xsplit footage is corrupted what are you going to do?

Well, bandicam just saved the day.

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

ᴾC SᴾeCS ᴰoWᴺ ᴮEᴸoW

Spoiler

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.

You should see a tab for it like at the normal forum homepage.

I also picked up a years subscription after watching @LinusTech's stream on YouTube earlier. Considering the forum breach that happened a while ago (or really just that breaches unfortunately seem to be the reality of the web nowadays) I'm wondering if someone can talk about how our personal data is stored, specifically (or vaguely, if you prefer) my address and phone number. I'd rather not have to give those out for a digital purchase if I can avoid it but I'm not too bothered if it's being handled appropriately. I tried to ask about this on the stream but chat being the deluge of nonsense that it is, I don't think Linus saw it.

 

For the record I did not have any payment issues and just watched Scrapyard Wars pt 2 and 3, now moving on to Set Destruction vlog.

I joined just now from Linus' live stream.  I too didn't get the Scrapyard notification from YouTube, but happy to see everything here, so hey it all works out.

Great question - right now we're using PayPal for payment processing, and once we move to the new site we'll be using a different solution. We won't be storing any actual payment information (like credit card numbers). As for addresses and phone numbers, etc. Let me get back to you on that one.
