  1. Lord of the Rings Amazon Series Information from IndieWire

    I'll hazard a guess it's about Numenor, either the rise or the fall, or both. With a little bit about the Elves making the Rings? Lots of creativity to mine.
  2. Favorite Music Player?

    I mainly use Media Monkey Gold, although I have sampled Foobar 2000 once in a while.
  3. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Requires 175 GB of Hard Drive Space on PC

    That would explain why I haven't played COD since the second Modern Warfare (with the bad guy overwatch). I knew there was a reason, but I forgot.
  4. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Requires 175 GB of Hard Drive Space on PC

    DIdn't say it was a deal-breaker, just that it lowers the probability to buy. And I've got plenty of space (I think) on my 1.0 tb nvme drive I use for games. I'll wait for reviews to see if the play is skewed to MP or SP, if the play is 50/50 MP/SP, I'll most likely wait for Black Friday or a...
  5. The Outer Worlds Is Coming to Xbox Game Pass for PC This Month

    I have Stellaris, pretty good 4x game, but takes a loooong time, longer than GalCiv 3, and it is real-time, so if things start getting hot, you have to pause the game to plan things out. Am looking forward to Outer Worlds, timing is good for when I have 4-5 play-throughs on BL3 done.
  6. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Requires 175 GB of Hard Drive Space on PC

    While I liked the first Modern Warfare games (I like Cpt Price & Soap, & the nuke going off was very disturbing, but that's my prior service part of me speaking about a very real fear in the 60's/70's), I don't like MP, so if they don't parse out the MP files from the SP files, not sure I'd...
  7. Steam's New Library Is Now Available for Testing

    I like the list view, too, not interested in this. I also don't really use curated lists, I'll do my own homework.
  8. Multiple Thermal Paste Comparisons and Review

    I'd be more interested in a long-term test, as some TIM's will "dry out" and performance suffers. I'm not into replacing my TIM every year.
  9. GPU Temperature Monitoring Is Coming to Windows 10’s Task Manager

    I use Argus Monitor to watch my temps and change fan settings, he's pretty good about updating for new chipsets, and Asus GPUTweak for the actual gpu (plus it let's me change the overclock on the fly if need be).
  10. GPU Temperature Monitoring Is Coming to Windows 10’s Task Manager

    I see that Task Manager has the gpu on the bottom now (no, I didn't see it before, I always have TM open in a small box), they have Urilization and memory usage, but the driver version, DX version, physical location (PCIE slot?) and hardware reserved memory (not sure what that is) are blank. so...
  11. New Teaser Released for Straight-to-Video DOOM Movie, Annihilation

    Straight to video? Hmmmmm....... But will probably rent/watch/netflix/hulu/prime (or whoever gets the rights).
  12. Google Officially Strips “WWW” and “HTTPS://“ from Chrome’s Address Bar

    The whole idea of putting the "https://" was so minimally trained users could look for comething to show that the site that they were conncting to was, in fact, encrypted. And, the "www" is used so that users (once again, minimally trained) go to a specific website. It's a pita to have to set...
  13. Whats your Antivirus Solution? What do you use?

    Windows Defendor, Eset & Malwarebytes. All win8.1/10.
  14. Looking for a new case

    I have NZXT's, they're plenty roomy, but big on the outside. Has a space for 2 ssd's on the back of the m/b mount plate, has 200mm fans on top (NZXT proprietary fitment, I tried Noctua's, but they didn't fit). Oh, Phantom 630 & 530.
  15. Editorial: Are Socket AMD BIOS's Too Fat?

    Reminds me of Cisco gear, at some point in the life of a switch/router if you wanted the latest ios version with bug fixes, you had to buy more memory, at Cisco's prices. But, as far as I'm concerned they can drop the rgb support and use that space for cpu support.
