What an upgrade. Have you gotten the 1070ti too or whatever card you were going to jump to?

Yeah, that's next. Going to get something IPS but there are just so many options out there that it's pretty overwhelming.

Going to break down my current build and give some parts to my nephew.

He will now have:

That should last him a few more years until he finishes college and gets a job to buy his own parts, shouldn't it?


I am building a virtual pinball machine with this:






In my new build should I see my Titan X Pascal for the 2080Ti? I can maybe get $600 for it on eBay. Not sure if the extra $600 for the 2080Ti is worth it.

I went from 2xTitan X (Pascals) to 1x2080Ti

It was worth in terms of 1 card. You also get raytracing. It looked cool in Control.

I know you have an Xp, but performance is roughly the same to my old X Pascals.

Stout I have two things for you

This is my dog


And this I found a few months back

What makes you want to build a pinball machine?

Nice dog and I am still grateful for the second thing.

I love pinball. I came really close to buying a South Park one but have decided that a virtual machine is the way to go so that I have every machine ever made.

We are looking at a bigger place and if we buy it then I will get a few actual machines as I will have a bigger game room/bar on the lower level.

I'm not old enough love pin ball machines but always loved them, they are just cool.

I would rather a virtual pinball machine over arcade.

Oh BTW I bought this 49" monitor to work off of and it is insane how convenient it is.

I am running it on my Intel NUC that is vesa mounted to the back and it does just fine running it.

Yea, I guess they made it out arcades at the time. I barely remember playing them as a kid.

I think I just missed that pinball turnover.

I honestly cannot look at a keyboard or my hands without thinking of you.

So thanks

Microcenter has 75 inch Samsung TVs for $750. I'm sure they're junk compared to high end panels, but that's a killer deal.

But its junk right? How the picture look?

Like if you have it for a backyard party maybe but can't imagine that in a living or gaming room.

Our stripper friend was bringing about her 75in tv a few weeks back like I would be impressed. Wonder if it's the same brand?
