Glad you're OK. I forgot you were living in that area for work. Hopefully the rig survived.

I'm back in LA right now, our office is closed until after Labor Day.
I know my complex flooded, but not sure how high. I'm on the first floor. So thinking at minimal we lost my TV, PS4 Pro, Router, mattress and some random shtt. Friday morning before leaving to come back home I unplugged and placed all electronics on a table. I'm hoping the water did not reach that point yet.
But that is nothing compared to the 3 purses the SO bought for her birthday around the 2nd week of August. Praying I put those MFers up high. Sort of remember doing it but then IDK. Didn't believe flood waters would reach over knee high.
The terrible part is that we just gave our 30day notice because we are moving into a 2BR apartment due to the SO taking some classes here. We stay here 4-5days a week and go home on weekends.
Well the NEW apartment might be flooded. Soo, wtf
Rigs at the house safe and sound. Wanted to GIVE ME a reason to come home every weekend. Purchased a gaming laptop plus Switch and PS4 for anything else.
Is it hard to receive full reimbursement of personal property like electronics, clothes, handbags, etc?

PCPer - New GPU Launch, New Attempt to Unlock Stuff
OG Post from ChipHell Forums
OG Post from ChipHell Forums
quote:
Because so many different video cards are made from a handful of chip designs, there is a group of people who like to see whether a lower-end SKU can be unlocked to behave like a higher-end one. In this case, kdtree on the ChipHell forums has apparently flashed the new AMD RX Vega 56 with the vBIOS from an AMD RX Vega 64. Personally, I would find that a little sketchy, given the difference in stream processor count, but they’re the one with the graphics card.
quote:
Turns out, it did something, but it did not magically create an RX Vega 64. The extra 512 shaders are probably disabled at the hardware level, such as with a laser. Your first reaction is probably “well, of course it is...” but, if you remember Polaris, users have software-modified 4GB cards into 8GB cards... so there is some precedence for “maybe AMD put more on the card than they said on the box”.
Oh right, so what did it do? It apparently gave the card a significant overclock. It’s hard to tell under the watermark, but the modified Vega 56 was just a percent or so away from the Vega 64 on 3DMark. I’m guessing a conventional overclock might do the same, but who knows.

Hola computer gurus, I'm trying to either update my old computer or acquire enough pieces to build a new rig. I was looking at the geforce 1060 6gb but it seems they are pretty price inflated right now. What would be a good price to pick one up at and should at I look toward ebay? I'm not looking to spend a whole lot and probably would piece this thing together over time since I have twins now and money is not as free flowing now.
If I go with building a new rig I was looking at the 1060 with a ryzen 3 1200 and overclocking it, and a 8gb stick of ram. Any advice?

AMD is poo

That's why I don't ask for build advice from you...remember to check your wires when building a computer bro
Posted on 8/31/17 at 2:24 pm to burgeman
Remember that I can post screenshots of you asking me about builds bro.

I had some ITX parts left over that I could have hooked you up with for a decent prize, but I just sold them today.
I can look around and try to find you a 3770k and mobo for a better price then the r3 1200, and the 3770k shits on the 1200.
The video card on the other hand will be tough. I'll stay on the lookout for one of those too

If you're talking about contents insurance, it's definitely helpful to have photos and receipts. If you're talking about FEMA assistance or whatever, not happening.

Sickening.
Lost my whole console gaming situation and fairly new TV. Along with other shtt. Purchased the Pro just for the fckking apartment too.
Expected it to flood when I left at 3:00AM last Friday. Put everything up off floor to about waist height. Not this BS of 5' to 6'.

Damn that suck, sorry to hear!
Posted on 8/31/17 at 8:27 pm to RATeamWannabe
Get back to work son.
Posted on 8/31/17 at 9:17 pm to LSU Coyote
That really sucks. Amazing how much damage some shitty (literally) water can do in a short time.
Posted on 8/31/17 at 9:37 pm to ILikeLSUToo
Yeah sucks but at less it wasn't my house.
What i'm reading, financial resources will be tough to come by with FEMA only allocated $7.6B. High end estimates have the total damage north of $80MM.

Thanks blue, I am probably going to be waiting on sales/deals on most components, I am not in too much of a hurry

Yep, I feel terrible to even have the thought of oh man I have to buy the same consoles and TV again.
If my home flooded like this I would probably shoot myself. Esp since we are about to sell and build again in 2018.

Just landed in L.A. and there are a lot of Aggies here for the UCLA game. Wonder if any of them post here.
