  1. Coronavirus Causes More Cancellations at GDC

    IDK; maybe we should eliminate the weak ones, and enhance the PC master race with killing off the weak first. I'm betting console players die first, leaving us more power in determining which games get made.
  2. Borderlands 3 Launching on Steam Next Month with PC Crossplay and New Campaign Content

    Borderlands was always the "Same fight same opponents same BS." If I were learning A skill, it would be worthwhile, but it's a game.
  3. PSU Tech Look: Cable Length and Voltage Regulation

    The parts that are drawing the big currents use tons of pins to get that power thru. The individual pins on a CPU are running a few amps. 100A at 1V is 100W, so at 2A/pin it needs 50 pins; and 12V at 100W is 8.4A on 6A pins, so it needs 2 pins. I've ran 250W to a CPU designed for 150W, so the...
  4. J.J. Abrams Speaks about People’s Reactions to Star Wars

    I hate what JJ Abrams has done to everything he's done; he raped Star Trek, now he's raping Star Wars. Is there nothing so pure he won't defile it? What's next; a new version of The Prisoner? I might actually lose it if he tries that...
  5. Movies Are Getting Patched Now: Universal Is Updating “Cats” with “Improved Visual Effects”

    Lol. I'm waiting for the "Movie of the Year" release, same as borderlands; that should have all the bugfixes.
  6. "English, Motherf*ker, Do You Speak It?" Samuel L. Jackson’s Voice Now Available for Alexa

    Something interesting to me is that in the scene referenced, he says to dude that his name is "Pitt". Everywhere else in the movie, it's Jules.
  7. Intel Outsources Desktop CPU Production to Samsung Due to Worsening Chip Shortage

    I would bet that if Samsung can get a handle on the 7nm stiff, theirs will. We might see 5GHz all core processors on air.
  8. Ford Unveils All-Electric Mustang Mach-E: Up to 459 HP, 300 Miles of Range

    That is the ugliest thing I've seen since the 70's. But since I hate mustangs, I hope they sell a lot of them, lol.
  9. 4K Gaming Is a “Useless” Gimmick Designed to Sell New Tech, Says Playdead Co-founder

    I remember finding out my g500 would do 2048x1600, sometime in the early 00's; one of my buddies had just dumped a bunch of cash on a new monitor for 1024x768@75Hz, and looking up the specs. I got the G500 for cheap, because it had a burnin pattern from a medical app on it, but I was able to...
  10. AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 64C/128T CPU Outed by MSI?

    If it will OC to 5GHz, that would be the last computer I'd ever buy. If that's not enough, F it. :) But will it play Crysis? :)
  11. EA Remasters-Crysis Anyone?

    I really like FC2; I've replayed it more than any of the others; same with Crysis 3. Those aliens at the end of C3 are really hard to kill, and very aggressive. There's a way to kill the Jackal at the end of FC2; search for it online. It's a glitch. After you know the plot, you play...
  12. PSU Tech Look: Cable Length and Voltage Regulation

    As you've shown, cable length is not likely to be a big difference; the biggest difference is what pin is crimped on the end of the cables. These guys do a good job of listing the connectors, With Pin Numbers. http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#eps8 Most of you know...
  13. EA Remasters-Crysis Anyone?

    I still think Crysis Wars is the best multiplayer; we still play LAN games, and there are ways to play online, but there are few servers.
  14. EA Remasters-Crysis Anyone?

    I recently replayed all 4 Crysis games; I like them a lot. Especially on maximum difficulty. That changes a lot; you aren't going to blast your way thru it. :) 2 was probably the worst, and Warhead should have been a $20 expansion pack, really; but they were both fun. Crysis 3 is a bit more...
