    How do you finance your GPU purchase?

    I just pay cash, this last upgrade I used EVGA's step up to move from a 1070 to a 1080ti, so I guess I kinda did it in a 2 part payment scheme.

    Geforce GTX 1080 Ti now official - Faster than Titan X ($699)

    Yeah, I saw somewhere that the first batch of 1080ti FTW cards were for May 1st ship date, and this 2nd batch were for May 8th.

    Far Cry:Primal

    I'm interested. I enjoyed FC4, I actually enjoy using the bows far more then the guns, the stealth take downs and long range bow shots are so satisfying. I really hope this game emphasizes those combat aspects. Also the wild animals should be huge and intense. I hope working with the no guns...

    Hearthstone

    So I tilted last night trying to make Control Rogue work so I can play the Gold Anub'arak I got from my opening. But it wasn't very good, need to tweak that more. Got all it back and more though with Tempo Mage. Effigy is the most broken card of the expansion so far imo. The tempo swing is...

    Lol, I used some of my spare dust to craft an Eydis Darkbayne and put her into my Control Priest deck with 2x PWS, 2x Velens and she just completely shuts boards down, I love it, I got her double velens/pws against another priest and he just couldn't take initiative at all. I'm running a janky...

    Finished my 80 or so packs. Got 6 legendaries, Gold Ronin, Gold Anubarak, another Ronin, Fjolr Lightbane, Dreadscale and Skycaptin Kragg. Much better then my GVG opening when I got Gold Neptulon and 4x Blingtron.

    Anyone doing any big openings today? I'm looking at ~80 packs with my saved gold. I'm traveling for work next week, so HS will be my main game all week since I'll just have my phone/laptop. Should be a good time to test some shit.

    Hearthstone

    Yeah, the heal is whatever, I don't mind that. It's just face damage. The 2/3 stat line doesn't match up well against mech decks in particular and with the lack of other <4 drops I don't know if it's necessary to keep Chows over say a 3 drop like Farseer/MC Tech or the Druid of the Flame or...

    Hearthstone

    I don't tend to play Brawl after I get the pack. I guess I got lucky, one hunter game got a win. That deck was pretty janky though haha. The class does work decently with Joust I guess since Unleash/Summon Huffer are both not "minions" so your minion curve does tend to be higher even with decent...

    Dedicated Twitch.tv Streaming Laptop

    Twitch streaming just wants horsepower. It benefits a lot from higher end i7 CPUs, loves multithreading in particular and likes RAM, requires less from the GPU. Obviously you still want GPU to play the games though. But if you're playing at 720p that's not a huge concern either. Something with...

    Terraria 1.3 coming next week

    Got my new character back to where I can beat Hard Mode Bosses again. Now I need to beat Plantera. I remember when I did it before it was with weapons from the Hardmode Dungeon before that was patched and with the teleport rod. So this time should be harder. The Hallowed/Corrupt Mimics are...

    Yes! I love this game, I love the developers of this game as well. I'll be playing this update no doubt. Just about the best $2.50 I ever spent on a game.

    Steam Summer Sale Highlights

    I really like Dying Light. I did a playthrough on launch with a friend and we had a blast. I was hoping for a nice 50% discount on it so I could convince some other friends to get it and do a 4 man run through. Oh well.

    What's with the infestation of Skype in multiplayer gaming?

    People use it cause everyone has it, it's easy, and it's free. I've got a 10 man Mumble I use for voice chat with friends. I turn public voice chat off in most games.

    They do. Custom cars can either be turned on or off. So if custom cars is off everyone races stock versions of the cars. If it's on you can use any car from your garage in that class, or the stock ones.

    GTA 5 to look way better on PC.

    You can buy the garages and put the cars in them so they're always there when you spawn. You can customize them and stuff to look how you want and make them faster. Some of them are armored like the Karumas on this page. Any car that can be bought for <100k you can store in your garage, ones...

    If we're doing Garages I'll share some of mine. I'm a hardcore car whore in this game and these are my favorites: There are my Super/Sports (and one Sports Classic) cars. From front to back, Entity, Vacca, Jester, Stirling GT, Elegy. This is my "Getaway" Garage. This is the Garage near the...

    Yeah, the queues can be rough. The online section is definitely much much better when you're with a group of friends. I've had the best luck using the phone to quick join missions/heists/races. You tend to get placed in lobbies with people in them already. Most of the people aren't jerks either...

    Far Cry 4 worth it for co-op?

    FC4 is the opposite of FC3. In FC4 all the coop is free roam. So you can do things like take outposts, climb watchtowers, etc in coop but you can't progress through the story in coop. So to like unlock the 2nd half of the map at least one of you has to progress through 2/3 of the story. It's...

    Why doesn't Rockstar care about quality anymore

    They've been doing all free DLC's since they charge for the Shark Cards, although I don't know why anyone would buy one, getting currency in GTA is so easy even if you don't hack. There should be a second part to the DLC later this summer, they've said there probably won't be more "heist"...

    Just an update to this. Apparently the Stirling demolishes the Sports Classic class. Broughy1322 has it at ~4 seconds a lap faster then any other sports classic car on his standard course. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALUE4npXPQk

    GTA 5 to look way better on PC.

    I have a Karuma and an Insurgent. A lot of the heists though don't require either as what you're doing is "drive to point A, get into heist vehicle, continue in that". Also, I don't always feel like cheesing the missions, sometimes I prefer the challenge.

    GTA 5 to look way better on PC.

    It's pretty hilarious how expensive the shit is. I've only got 1.3 mil right now so I'll probably just grab the Stirling and try to do it up rally style since it seems to be good at that. I'll wait to see if the Osiris is the new troll car before I sink the money into it.

    GTA 5 to look way better on PC.

    FC4 was a great game, really fun in coop. But it lacked things to do beyond the single player. I've put over 120 hours in GTA5 already and haven't even touched single player, which is supposedly excellent. I was only able to get ~35 hours out of FC4 before it was just arena and random masks/maps...

    Yeah, this one is probably all cosmetic (at least 1 new gun). There is another part of this update slated for the summer sometime that will hopefully add more missions, and ideally mansions with 20 car garages. R* has pretty much said that more heists are unlikely at this point but they have...

    GTA 5 to look way better on PC.

    It's all "Free" in the sense that they don't charge real world money for any of their DLC's but it is unlocked with the in-game currency which isn't particularly hard to come by either through Heists or hacks.

    I originally thought having a garage out near the desert airport would be handy, but I've learned it doesn't really matter. I traded it in the other day for the 10-car near the airport/LSC just because it's easier to get to from my other garages.

    Looking for a new driving game

    My understanding with Dirt is they intentionally released it as an early access to give the Dirt community a lot of say over where they take the game since it's such a huge departure from their previous titles. So while the content is early access the game feels pretty solid, it's not a bug...

    Project Cars is supposed to be super solid. There is also Dirt Rally that was released last month. I'm sure it would run fine on that. I had no issues with it on a i5 760 and 760gtx.
