    Ark... For an 8yo

    They finally put VAC in, not sure how effective it is though. They will ban people with sufficient evidence too. I was globally banned because two people in my tribe were "proven" to be using hacks. Luckily I contacted WC and was unbanned (except for from the server I was on). For an 8 year...

    Clash of Clans

    Pre-update I was setting on 4 million elixer, post update I'm down to 2.8 mil. Only spent on troops/spells and lost on defenses. I haven't been able to make more than I spend since the update because I'm getting matched with max th10s and gemmed max th11s. After 2 years or more I think I may...

    Bump for you. I have two of those monitors and I'm really happy with them. Would love a third but I'd rather upgrade my gpu and case fans first. glws.

    Help w/ Logitech G502

    I haven't noticed it being a problem. The scroll wheel has always been one thing I didn't like that much though, I don't like how loud/notchy it is.

    Poor sound quality in flash videos.

    Sound from spotify and games still sound perfect, even vimeo sounds good, but I was never on there enough before to know if there has been a change. The picture quality on HD is as good as ever and not lagging/buffering so I think connection is good.

    Poor sound quality in flash videos.

    Not sure what or when something changed, but suddenly my sound in youtube and other flash videos sound like garbage like it's streaming the lowest bitrate possible even when set to HD. Specifically voices and bass tones tend to sound muffled as if they are recording in a cardboard box with...

    Random shutdown after even the slightest OC.

    Hana oh god I forgot to say the knob on my fan controller, I think my brain goes faster than my finger type. But had another shutdown with the PSU after only 5 minutes of being on this morning. Will have to do a memory test later today.

    Random shutdown after even the slightest OC.

    Went to Best Buy and snagged a CX750 to test. Been running @ 4ghz for a few hours now and seems to be holding steady. But even before it would seem okay for a day or even two before shutting down. Time will tell. Luckily I have a few years left on my Rosewill warranty. What's the process if I...

    Random shutdown after even the slightest OC.

    Haven't thought to run memtest, I'll try that when my roommate gets back to borrow his flash drive because I don't own one haha. The only extra PSU i have I know is bad because it was causing shutdowns under load when I overclocked my 7950. My PSU has developed some coil whine but with the...

    Random shutdown after even the slightest OC.

    Specs: i5 4690k msi gaming 5 z97 r9290 w/c rosewill 80+ gold 650w I can stress test and achieve "stability" all the way up to 4.6ghz, yet if I try to push the clock to even 3.7ghz my system will just shut down out of the blue. It almost never happens under load typically at idle or just...

    DiRT Rally

    Use the brakes to steer. Lightly dragging the brakes will transfer weight from the back to the front and increase your front grip. It's kind of art ti tine everything such that you don't understeer or don't cause the back to come around. Really difficult with a 360 controller I use. After...

    Project Cars?

    Have the AMD performance issues been fixed? Thinking about getting this from GMG but if my 290 won't run it up to par I won't be getting it.

    DiRT Rally

    For some reason if I don't oc my card I get 25-30fps tops and it looks even worse. Even a slight overclock brings it to 55-70. Thinking its something with my system though because I've noticed similar in star citizen. Also my computer will frequently completely lock up while playing this game. I...

    DiRT Rally

    My god I suck at this game. Could be because I have the volume low and it's difficult to pay attention to the co-driver, but every I time I start feeling like I'm doing decently I sling myself either off a cliff or into an embankment. The mini isn't that fun to drive to me and I haven't...

    Reference 290 Fan Profiles/Curves

    For me running the fan at any speed that made an appreciable difference resulted in a leaf blower inside my case. Kraken G10 bracket + corsair h55 fixed that right up though.

    Samsung Galaxy S6

    I would think maybe the manual focus adjustment? Is that available on the iphone? Am I the only one thinking of returning their s6? I was expecting a hit on battery life coming from a note 2 but this thing just eats battery even after fixing the stand-by drain and using power-save mode. Also...

    Samsung Galaxy S6

    Has anyone who is arguing FOR the edge being more comfortable actually held the device or just going off that video and whatever articles they cherry pick? I went in to best buy wanting to enjoy the edge so I was already biased, but soon after picking the phone up and fiddling with it I decided...

    Star Citizen - media blowout, Chris Robert's new game

    I'm having issues with gimbals on my aurora, for some reason I can't equip all four weapons along with the gimbals. In the ship customization holo it allows me to place all of them but when I leave and come back at least one of the weapons will be missing sometimes two. Is this a bug or does...

    Have you seen the water test video? The edge lasted 20 minutes underwater before messing up. It still sort of worked afterwards. That's waterproof enough for me.

    Samsung Galaxy S6

    Anyone else not like how the edge feels to hold? Checked them out at best buy wanting to like the phone because I think the tech is awesome but the backside is such a sharp corner it is not comfortable in the hand, my friend noted the same thing. Really liked the non-edge so I got it...

    Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 Tablet for $200 @ Best Buy

    It isn't great but it isn't terrible, really depends on your usage. Games (clash of clan and real racing 3 mainly) will kill it with just a couple hours usage. Web browsing will last 6-8 hours of screen time. I've had this tablet since June and still enjoy using, I do get a lot more frequent...

    Assetto Corsa Official Release Thread.

    I don't have a wheel and have a good time with the game. I don't exactly compete for wins but I can hold my own mid pack and I'm okay with that. adjusting the settings to get them right is time consuming and a little annoying though.

    290 Reference or not?

    +1 except if you don't care about reselling your card you can bake the stock heatsink to remove the copper fins from the plate and trim the plate to use as the VRM/VRAM heatsink. I get much cooler VRM temps than I've seen reported from people using a gelid kit and I don't have the fan on my...

    Free 8gb ram + shipping [mib + visa checkout]

    Sorry guys, finals have my brain in a fog. Anyone know how to cancel a VCO order? I didn't even receive an email, it isn't on my order history, and visa checkout doesn't even show an order history on their site.

    Free 8gb ram + shipping [mib + visa checkout]

    Didn't think to even look for something like that good catch. I don't see any mention of software expiration do is it only good for 2015 and then you'll get charged for auto renew? Kind of shady. I didn't even plan on using the software.

    Games that use a mouse to fly

    I don't have too much time into it and have a full array of tier 3 planes, and still use the tier 2 i16 because it is a boss. The game does get frustrating. It doesn't sound possible but after you always feel like you're the one outgunned and then unlocking does get slow for tier 3 and...

    Anyone used W10 with engineering software like solidworks and inventor? Upgrading my mobo/processor this weekend so I'm doing a clean install and was thinking of trying this out.

    Non-pwm fan control software?

    MSI gd80-v2. Really regret this thing. Used my only bitcoin to buy it when BTC started taking a turn from $200 to $180, then within a couple days skyrocketed to $100.

    Non-pwm fan control software?

    My motherboard only has non-pwn headers for fans other than the CPU, and I would really like some software to control them - especially since throwing an H55 on my 290, it's too noisy to leave running at 100% during regular use of my computer but 50% and 75% aren't quite enough cooling for high...

    Cooling and quieting a 290x

    I tightened my g10 bracket and now I'm getting even better temps, won't pass 70C and that's after pushing the voltage up to +100 and a few more mhz. I might could get better still but I'll worry about it when I have more free time and find my AS5 or order some better TIM. What's everyone's VRMs...

    Cooling and quieting a 290x

    Yeah using a G10. I thought the temps were a bit high but was happy with them, that's a lot of wattage it's dissipating. I'm not sure I have the screws tightened down enough because I was afraid of damaging my card, but the pump can move kind of freely. I couldn't find my tube of AS5 so I just...

    Cooling and quieting a 290x

    I just installed an h55 to my 290 and it's the best thing I could have done. At stock clocks it won't get over 70C. at 100% the fan makes a bit of noise but if you're playing a game you wont notice, and turning them down to 50% at idle keeps it at 36-40C and really quiet. I have +85mv and it's...

    Yeah, I felt the price was appropriate, especially with the release of the 970 making prices of 290's plummet. But thanks guys :D.
