I am hoping that the setup I have lasts a decade for gaming...

I guess maybe I just don't have as much time as others, or I just spend it doing something else entirely.

I haven't watched TV in months, but I'm outside working in the yard or on the boat for hours and hours every week.  Cool looking machines you guys.

To each his own. I pay landscapers because I hate yardwork and a boat seems like a nightmare.

Been alive for 40...have owned a boat for all of them.  (before 13 it was technically my grandfathers boat, but he never used it)  Couldn't imagine not living life on the water.

But you are correct, to each his own.  It's why attending every Panthers game seems wild to me, and people have done it for years on end.

No picture, but I got this bad boy coming in the mail:

https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Systems/CORSAIR-VENGEANCE-Series-Gaming-PC/p/CS-9050016-NA

Would have been nice to save $500 and build it myself but $1650…not too shabby. Good luck getting a GPU, every time I do I can’t help but sell it for 4x the price to BTC miners. So long as the cooler is figured properly all good.

Going through a depressing break up of 4 years so it will be getting all my love and attention.

I used to be a console person but unless you’re a die hard FPS competitor hooking a PC up to your TV FTW. You can get TVs meant for PCs, though nothing will beat a monitor rate.

Still as a RPG and RTG/TBS player, nothing beats sitting on the couch with a couch master keyboard. Sitting at a desk ruined it for me for the longest time even with a ridiculously priced computer chair.

Never going back to console.

Check this L33T gaming monster!

i7-4790!  16gb DDR3 500gb SSD/1TB HDD, and an XFX 580 4GB powered by an external power supply.

In Blender, Cycles on the GPU render does well.  Gaming is pretty poor.  Like I can play D2, Borderland, CyberPunk 2077 (medium 1080 is about 30 FPS).

They keyboard is my son's since he's taking lessons.

I need a new computer.  It chugs really hard doing Houdini sims or complex math like 3D After Effects work, Unreal, etc.

4790 pairs well with a 1060 6gb.

Jesus. Am I in a time machine? This is a classic 2004 type forum thread. People still use PCs and desktops outside of work? Yeah yeah ... gaming ... I know.

You still use a desktop for work? What kind of backwards ass employer doesn't have a nearly completely mobile setup for WFH?

      Canes vs blue jackets 7pm

      Hope Koch recovers (he’s stated numerous times he doesn’t like to be called “koochie”) soon. But he does not instill confidence in the crease. I don’t have any confidence in any of our goalies, healthy or not. Andersen when available gives us the best chance to win but he’s never available.    Team has to explore trade options soon.

      Tom Pelissero: Ejiro Evero name to watch when coaching cycle commences

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.
