The Cyberpower PC had a window on the tower's left side, with a pulsating light that cycled through various colors.
*right side.
Gotcha
I'd read that Cyberpower machines often had poor construction, and that the company's customer service was often unsatisfactory, and in my case the former turned out to be true.
Nice tower and multi-monitor setup!
Yeah cyberpower are ass I told a friend that and he didn't believe me he was only listening to the specs lel
Thanks!
Cyberpower and Ibuypower (which I am convinced are the same company) have nice advertisements in the gaming magazines with very reasonable prices.
But I got a lemon, while the replacement Alienware machine has been running fine for nearly two years now.
So I guess Dell didn't entirely ruin Alienware after all.
Well they both used to be chinese companies before
They still sell chinese junk
Like nock-off keyboards etc
I'm using a Microsoft Sidewinder X6 keyboard that my brother gave me around 10 years ago. The detachable keypad can fit on either side!
Prior to that, the only Sidewinder product I'd ever owned was a gamepad (Playstation style) that connected to the parallel port.
hmmm
Found a 10 pack of thermal paste on ebay for 2 dollars
From china but still
I wonder if it is any good
@Deadly_Ramon But what I mean by old parts as well is the i5-2500k that thing has some serious power for only 40 dollars
That thing has the same speed as an i5-6600k overclocked
Which those go for 200 used
@Deadly_Ramon Fucking hell I just checked your steam you have 1000 games
I thought my 300 was a lot but damn
I thought that my size is biggest but damn, there's guy from Netherlands beats me by 2ft longer
Why tho
@Deleted User I've been a member of Steam since it started in 2003, though from memory I could have sworn that it started for me with Half Life 2, which required online activation through Steam and which sat on my shelf for several days as I awaited the activation.
@Deleted User I own even more games on GOG (https://www.gog.com/u/DeadlyRamon). Not all of them were purchased, certainly not all at full price, but many of them were gifts from another person or limited-time giveaways that I was able to permanently add to my library. Stick around on either such platform (or preferably both) and who knows how many games you will have after 15 years?
@djancak @Deadly_Ramon what do you think of this?
The conversation is over crossfire and sli on non supported sli/crossfire games
I am saying the performance is hindered and will be degradated because the game doesn't support it natively
@Deleted User Talisman appears to be talking out of his ass, and I'm more of a single card solution kind of guy. Back when I built my system with a first generation TITAN, a friend of mine built his new system with two such cards, but I think he got maybe a 20% performance boost from the extra $1,000 spent rather than a 100% boost.
yea i mean theoretically dual-carding should massively increase performance but it's just like how if you have 8 cores of a CPU if the programs aren't designed to specifically utilize it efficiently then you're realistically not going to see much/any improvement and sometimes it can actually cause a loss of performance
i haven't dual-carded in my life and based on benchmarks i've seen there's never been that much of a reason to do it
GG @djancak, you just advanced to level 7! View the leaderboard by typing !levels in any channel.
i've never been that into having fancy-schmancy graphics in the first place though
