nnnnooottt looking to spend 1200-1500 dollars to upgrade my motherboard and processer (and probably RAM which is more money). Average cost of Ryzen capable Mobo and CPU bundle

for $1500, i'd rather buy a brand new high end marker. Even then, paintball guns are like cars, the minute you open the box and run paint through it, it's already dropped half it's value. Could find the same marker, like new quality for half the price....

Ajay and ExoRush be liking all the posts 'cause they're too poor to talk about this stuff lol. Just kidding

here's the thing. I'm someone who likes to get the biggest bang for my buck when i build a computer. my entire rig was $650 and it's future proof for at least another year. I'd have to find some decent 6 or 8 core AM3+ CPU and with Ryzen being release, it might be wise to upgrade at least the CPU.

For now, the difference between an RX480 (which i have) and the 580 is the 580 is everything that they wanted in the 480. So differences come down to manufacturer. I believe the most money you should spend on any given component should be the graphics card. My card is VR compatible at 4gb GDDR5 memory and theoretically should be able to play Elite:Dangerous in VR. I just need more cores on my processor. Choices then boil down to an 8core upgrade or a high end paintball gun....

I'm not big on nvidia or Intel because again, i'm a cheapo. My 4 core AMD/Radeon setup does me just fine for the amount of gaming i actually do. I always recommend that you build a computer based on how you're going to use it THEN figure out how much you wanna spend

As far as my other parts go:
Asus AM3+ board. sadly, no hookups for front mounted USB3
Coolermaster 212 Evo CPU cooler (one of the most common CPU coolers)
Thermaltake 600w PSU
1x1tb Hard Drive SATAIII
LG DVD-RW burner
Corsair mid-size case

Peripherals:
Element 40" 1080p HDTV via HDMI
Samsung 23" 720p HDTV (Secondary) via hdmi
Blackweb Keyboard (walmart crap)
Logitech mouse (ancient)
Dell 3pc Speakers (ancient but still shakes the house)
Wired Xbox 360 controller
PS4 USB Chat headset
iFrogz earbud headphones

i think thats just how technology works. you think you're getting a sick rig only to find out by the time you build it, you're already a generation and a half behind.

I wonder why they chose not to go with Steam as their Digital Distributor. Humble Bundle has it for preorder and a number of other online retailers.

Also tried looking up system requirements. i've got a quad core, an RX 480 4gb and 16gb of RAM so i shouldn't have much trouble running it. looking to be 68gb in size

granted. but you don't know how to use it

I wish for Danger Zone to come take over my shift and doesn't get me fired

granted. a design flaw turns your phone into a nuclear reactor. It's very hot at over 10,000 degrees and gives off radioactive waves that cause your testicles to shrivel up like raisins. And you die of cancer...

I wish to make it through my shift

(it's not about winning or losing. it's about having fun)

Granted. it breaks worse than your old one did.

I wish for Danger zone to have an invincible phone so it doesn't break

(you should see my old phone. screen cracked to hell, LCD all f*cked to hell...still worked...mostly)

granted. you learn too much. Either you end up committing suicide or the government kills you for accidentally talking about their skeletons

I wish for an AWESOME day at paintball tomorrow. #pewpewpew

wasn't that the point of the subplots when Dany was making a name for herself?. Breaker of chains n such? glimpses into other daily lives of others that inhabit the world of GoT

If HBO doesn't pick this up, we riot

lol something like that.

hugely disappointed in the finale. LF got what he deserved though...

Or Watto should've just taken the republic credits...

nope. the Series finale will end with a mexican standoff with Cersei, Sansa, Arya, Jon, Dany, Jaime and Tyrion in the middle of Kings Landing.

Plot twist: Spanish Conquistadors invade Westeros and Season 9 is about everyone who hated each other fighting to drive out the foreign devils...

When an NPC Boss rolls a 20....

hey man. Han may be a scoundrel or a stuck up... half-witted... scruffy-looking... Nerf-herder...but he's honest. He did technically bring Luke and Ben to Alderaan...

I mean, it's knowing how to read people. Han is one of those people who's "Lying face" is the same as his "I swear i'm telling the truth!" face. It's all about the art of the lie. Getting stopped by an Imperial cruiser sounds a bit more tangible than bug-eyed pirates with 6 arms boarding the Falcon, knocking Chewie unconscious and holding Han hostage until he gave them what they wanted (and it's likely the Hutts told them about it in the first place...)

I can hear it now "I'm SORRY! They threatend to throw Chewie out the airlock!" "I'm tired of your lies, Solo. Time to Die" (spoken in Huttese)

So, Obviously we all know Cantana Focks is generally a loner. However, upon leaving the Sirius Sector, he longed to go further than most men have willingly gone. While waiting for Confirmation of a cargo delivery he was making, Commander Focks perused the galaxy map to find a system far on the other side of the galaxy to attempt to visit. After finding a nice system roughly 36,000 light years from Grendel, Focks decided that trying to make just a journey would take months and could face unknown perilous dangers from beyond The Bubble.

All that said, i'm trying to put together a small team to travel from the edge of The Bubble to Sploheau EF-T B32-62. Where's the best place to find or offer such expeditions

Or we can road trip to Beagle Point... I just wanna stand at the edge of the galaxy is all...

i truly never think Han ever intentionally tries to screw people over. I mean when it comes to dealing with Hutts or other criminals. Imperials confiscate their shit, loses cargo to pirates or it's just hubris and Murphy's law. Either way, i think he's genuinely innocent... most of the time

Fan Films are cool n all. But Han Solo isn't a Force user. There's evidence that suggests he's force sensitive, but not strong enough to form a connection. I almost lost my shit when he grabbed the lightsaber with The Force. It would have been more "Star Wars" if Imperials attacked or that green bitch at the beginning found Solo or Dash Rendar was in on the mission and helped rescue Han and Chewbacca. The Pazaak touch was nice

For a fan film it was very well done. The beginning of the ending could've been better

Corynthos, why? Why ruin it with your spoiler?
