Indeed, I have a 16:10 because I hate the 16:9 ratio for computers.

What's the point? When I'm in front of my monitor I don't know its thickness, but I sure can notice I can't wall mount it because everything is in its base...

I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum and I'm all out of bubblegum!

I'm happy when I see Uber in trouble.

Back in the days when James Hyneman was still robot looking.

Ever wonder how would look a case with too much pressure in it, there it is! Looks like someone farted in an air tight case...

Weird space number for a drive, 314GB. In honor of PI day? :p

Maybe for homes that don't change regularly but commercial buildings, hospitals, schools, etc they always change, add stuff, upgrade, new store inside an existing building, etc. So no I'm not scared of even prefabs.

I'm an electrician, the only way I could be replaced is if/when robots become identical to human in every aspect (physically and mentally). I'm not really scared for now ;)

Most of the files are still accessible, so I'll simply recover what I can from the back up and leave the rest. I know nothing prevents me from reading the files, that the files themselves are corrupted. Without knowing it I probably delivered a small static shock to the drive in the transfer...

Copying worked, but the files are still unplayable :(

That's a good idea to try copying them. I'll do that before anything else (since there's no writing on the HDD involved). 1) Can't be, all the files were OK a day before transferring the HDD to the new tower and worked flawlessly. 2) Again doubtful, the only thing that could have done it would...

I haven't tried ownership, usually there is a popup when this problem is happening, me VLC opens it but doesnt play it as if the file was empty. Files in the same folder play nicely, they all have the same codec and VLC played them before the swap. I'll try ownership later today(not at home...

Hi, I've swap a few HDDs to a newer tower and now on one drive some video files are "empty", they are there, taking the space required to stock them but cannot be played. The files next to it are OK in the same folder (all files were written at the same time). I've never had such a problem, I...

I know Snef, its fun to see him in this list. But I'm really surprised to not see Yazi's Star Destroyer in the list. But I guess it isn't a case mod but a complete case creation... http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1879539&page=4

The shape is so basic and without any detail I wouldn't call that a Star Destroyer. Its a flying foam triangle.

Cheat? Xbone did the same thing months ago...

I don't get why you would want this? I'm a console and computer gamer. But I can't think of any reason I would want to remotely play my ps4 games on my computer...

Got a deal on a GTX 760 2GBDDR5 and a R9 280 3GBDDR5 at the same price 225$CAD. They look similar on some benchmarks, which is better?

Thanks for these price reference. They will help me find good deals. Thanks for all the replies, I'll go for a used one and wait for the next gen before dropping serious money. Now, I'll search for a GPU that can run Fallout 4 at High@1680x1050 (will save a bit more than if I aim for Ultra on...

The PSU isnt a problem, EVGA SuperNova G2 850W. The GPU is the last part I need for my "new" computer(been building slowly for the last 6months).

Thanks, I thought about waiting for Pascal at first. But I need to play Fallout 4 and I only have Intel's HD4600. The rationnal choice would be to find the cheapest playable(medium at least) used card for now and wait for the launch of the next gen GPU(summer probably)?

More equal than outperform. There's 1 FPS of difference between the two. 980ti was never a possibility, at 1k$ CAD it's way to expensive. There is a 100$CAD difference between them and that difference will be gone in about 2years of usage (minimum) with the slighty higher consumption of the...

So 980 is out and 970 is in again... Thanks everyone, I know it would take a crystal ball to make the right choice between the 390x and 970 so I'll probably go with my guts an get a 970 (AMD's shitty drivers scares me). EDIT: Argh... nope... could be 390X... :confused:

I thought about the 970, but I think (might be wrong) there will be a significant difference in the long run with the 980 instead of the 970 (current games its 15-20% better). No?

Hi, I'm hesitating between the 390x and the GTX 980. I'll play at 1080p(maybe 1200p if I upgrade my screen to 16:10 someday, but not more), will never SLI/Crossfire and will keep it for around 5 years. In some bench the 980 is better, in others the 390x is better. Both can run anything at...

I will, but my question was more if in general it is worth waiting, than finding the deal it self. Thanks

Jet doesn't seem to ship to Canada. I usually buy from Newegg.ca, NCIX.ca or Amazon.ca

Parking like this already exist in Japan and at the VW factory/headquarter in Germany.

Hi, Is it worth waiting for the rebates of BF/CM to buy an EVGA GTX 980 or it's doubtful the rebate would be more than 20-30$ off? If it's worth waiting, which of the two usually have the best rebate? I don't often buy parts, so I never really looked a the deals during those two events. I'm...

You succeeded, it looks like some kind of power-cell often seen in games and sci-fi. Great build!

Thanks! That is exactly what I was wondering. There's still the core clock question, but like others mentioned almost any small overclock gain they acheived I should be able to acheive the same with another card. But my question isn't about a specific model either, it's about what to look for...

Thanks for the clarification on reference vs non-reference boards. My case is a Phantek Enthoo Luxe, pretty much any GPUs will fit in it.

I know what I need, my question was about choosing a specific card compared to others from the same core. What are the best cooling solutions? Most of them have the 2/3 fans classic setup. I won't be watercooling, so having a reference board is useless or are they more reliable/better for small OC.

Hi, I'm about to buy a new GPU. And I'm a bit confused about what to look for in my final card choice. Which ever GPU model(970, 290, etc) you choose, there's multiple manufacturer and each manufacturer has multiple card available for the same GPU model. How to choose which one? The only big...

You haven't build stuff or use tools often I guess.... Its really easy to have that hanging from the ceiling without any structural changes. It takes less than 5 minutes to have a solid hook on the ceiling.

You can upgrade an onboard mobile GPU?

Product design heavily inspired by stealth fighter planes. it's a bit too much for my taste. The docking station is just weird and too big (probably speakers in it, but still...).

Yes that's what I said I'd do in previous post. My dilemma was about DX12, but like someone mentioned actual DX12 games will come out in at least a year minimum. I have time to sell and upgrade till then if I want to.

I've looked, one is still up for sale. A bit hesitant on buying used. Like David_Schroth and you suggested, yes it would be more logical to sell parts and buy newer ones more often. Glad to see I'm not the only one feeling that way about AMD, solid product but poor support. Yes psycho budget...
