I don’t know how to feel about this lol… $1000. Was on the PNY site for a few minutes so fairly legit … Maybe.
I mean not like nvidia has anyone to force them to lower prices lol
But hey 1080 Tis are cheap now so meh?
Had some great hearthstone games, coming back from the brink of death in 2 of them, outlasting another deck that was playing 2 3/5s each turn and couldn’t fatigue. Went from the bottom of rank 20 to halfway through 19 (and I still don’t really know what’s in each of these Whizbang decks since the deck tracker doesn’t work with them).
also only just noticed how many jabs there were in the latest techlinked, lmao.
sometimes linus is on point
it is rare though
4k + warthunder… mmmhhhhmmm. dat realism. even the sun glare is accurate
can even read the writing on the bombs, lol. and the destruction physics are good as well.
Are we really getting a TI variant so soon? Seems strange and weird. I’m use to it being months later not at the same time.
I am curious how these cards will perform. As far as new games with Ray Tracing in them go… Remedy did a demo of Ray Tracing so I’m expecting Control will have it. Now I do wonder if there will be an option to turn Ray Tracing off.
Will the 20th just be a paper release or will it be actually release?
How will this do in 4k? Will be 60 FPS?
I’m not in the market for a new card yet. my rx 480 is still doing well.
I might actually buy another 570 or 580 lol. They are down to $160ish so.
But ye is confusing.
Retail prices on Newegg seems to be normal again too. $240 on sale and ~$280-300 not on sale (with some black sheeps still going above $300, looking at you, ROG Strix for $380…)
But why would anyone buy retail lol… Especially after the whole mining craze and what they continue to do after it
At least used is great value. If slightly gambling but most online sites make it so used cards are as safe as new.
And local stuff is whatever.
When RX 4/570s are $130 used and $250+ new… Yeahhhh.
Warranty. Or is warranty transferable in the US?
Usually used has 30 day warranty if not more, and if it doesn’t break within 30 days generally its not going to (from what I’ve had.) Unless its a hard drive but meh
Saw MEG. On the Jason Statham scale of films, I rate it as either 7 or 8. It’s good but it has some flaws but it is enjoyable to watch.
was sleep drunk yesterday+day before from doing a 26 hour awake stretch lol oops (i guess technically it would be awake drunk… But either way. Same idea). So if I wasnt making sense is why.
In other news hi all. I’ve finally slept a lot lol, 11 hours straight, now at work again. What all is everyone else up to? (Thats awake that is lol.)
Office course ended last Friday, so now I’m putting more time into WoW again.
Odd thing though, since the new expansion released everyone (streamers, players) is hyped and doing nothing else. But for some reason this “too much hype to join in on the fun” thing of mine and I’m leveling a rogue that I still need to enjoy playing (don’t really wanna play the pirate spec but it gets enemies down the fastest and the other specs are not that satisfying either).
In other, other news. First time actually using a manual car as my daily… I quite like it. It’s a fair bit more work to drive the car, but also really nice once you get used to it. Also. All the gas mileage. Lol.
Using my grandpas extra Hyundai in the meantime while I search for another car, or decide to fix my van as the transmission is fucked on it so.
Overall not bad.
One somewhat promising find is an old 86 crown Vic, but only if I get a good deal on it. Other than that not too much yet.
Its sad when I can literally buy a new car for cheaper than fixing the transmission on my van lol. Then again. The van is worth $5000ish when fully fixed… But it isn’t so. Yeah.
Warframe report :
I got a 30 minute affinity booster as a drop from an enemy. So I did focus farming. I’m working through the getting the Warframes from the quest for them. Some of them are ridiculous.
If I’m not mistaken then automatic is still considered the lazy option where you pay more overall (initial buy, gas and when the transition is fucked even more expensive than manual).
Only thing I hear people talking about in terms of big options is gas vs diesel.
Basically manuals at this point only are in old cards, sportsy cars, and VWs lol. Otherwise generally everything is an automatic now because people are lazy. That or automatic trucks are actually usually better at gas mileage than manual because computers. On other cars it may or may not make sense.
New automatics are a lot nicer than old ones though. So there’s also that.
Manuals are still really nice though, there’s a reason a lot of the highly efficient VW cars (jettas and such, whether gas or diesel) are manual still, it is much more efficient provided you shift the car well.
If you have twitch prime there’s a gear bundle for Warframe available until September 13th that includes a 7 day affinity booster, a 7 day resource booster, and a little bit of platinum.
