Re: Off Topic 2012

Apologies for asking if it was already asked or you already said, but how much did it all run you in total?

Re: Off Topic 2012

That's a crazy set up. I wish I had the money for a decent PC..

Going from 2 mbps to 20.

With the 3 monitors included it ran me about 3500. About 4k with tax since they now started charging CA residents tax on interwebs purchases. Also included in that price are my Razer mouse/keyboard/mousepad/headset. I don't have any speakers for the computer since I'm gonna be almost 100% using the headset.

Expensive, but I saved a decent amount of money on some deals. Plus so far the SSD is ****ing fantastic.

Could have easily saved a couple hundred by buying crappy fans/heatsink, but since I'm 100% air cooled temperature is everything.

Thank you severance check. Just waiting on a legit ISP installation from Comcast (20mbps for 29.99/month. 1 year, no contract, 25$ install fee) so I don't have to use my phone tether like I am right now.

You are not only going to be a pc playing pimp, but an online gaming, man amongst boys lol.

Seriously though, congrats.

Consider me envious, I feel a bit inspired to go out and get something similar, but not till around New Years or so.

Yeah... It's honestly a bit overkill for current games. I had never built a PC before, never had a true gaming PC (only family computers from Best Buy when I was growing up) and for the past few years have only owned a laptop because of the whole military thing.

Finally had enough space to build one, so when I got my severance I figured "eh, what the hell. Might as well as go all out."

One thing I do have to note is that I am amazed at how quiet these Noctua fans are. The top of my case has 3 120mm, the heatsink has 1x140mm and 1x120mm, and there are 3 140mm fans inside the case (I replaced the stock fans.) The case fans are all running at 1200rpm according to my touchscreen fan controller I installed to the front of the case and I can barely hear them humming. They are definitely pushing a lot of air too.

Re: Off Topic 2012

You guys, we can finally blame the regular refs when they **** up.

[ubernoob]

Re: Off Topic 2012

Woohoo! At least we can legitimately complain about the referees' ability to call a game now. They won't have the "simply overclassed" excuse the replacements have, which is a valid one.

Re: Off Topic 2012

I don't know anyone in their 30's or 40's but plenty of girls I went to high school with do it. I was going to say that I was surprised that no one else had seen it but then I remembered what site I was on.

Yeah, I know of one on twitter right at this moment. Pretty sure my ex tried that a few years back. I didn't let it stand for very long.

Going to a concert tonight. I'm not sure if you guys have heard of him as he isn't all that famous or very good. Jack White? I don't know what to expect. Hope it will be good.

Explaining "casual" relationships to this girl probably isn't the greatest idea I've ever thought of.
