We can't have pools.
Water table is too high. Tons of issues. It sucks.
Where I grew up the water table was 6-8". It was literally the swamp.
Now it's around 1'.

That's what Intel said too while keeping their head in the sand.
The thing is I grew up with AMD CPUs dominating.
Intel really only came back with Sandy.
They also held back the industry a few years. I'm just as pissed at them as I am with AMD's bulldozer failure.
Edt: nVidia isn't stopping forward progression, as much.
Edt2: Well Intel kind had something with Core2Duos. Just AMD multicores usually outperformed.

Correct, it's moreso the pricing structure that will need adjustments similar to Intel as AMD begins to pump its profits into other areas of the company.
2020 should be another massive year for AMD, Intel has nothing and the GPU division has big Navi + the 2 new consoles.

Debatable. The Supers were overpriced all the way through the lineup.
Although I will say that was just a great job by AMD leaking their pricing and letting Nvidia set theirs then undercutting the next day. Well executed.

I never talk price.
Always just performance.
Price/performance is a separate debate.
AMD usually kills it there, as we all know. But not always.
Edt: they really need to challenge the top end. Bring that pricing down. idk if it happens anytime soon.

That's true, you've always been the spend whatever amount on the highest end.
Posted on 12/11/19 at 10:29 am to UltimateHog
No not exactly. Target is always performance, or used to be at less.
It's just an investment. Usually 1.5yrs. It was also kind of required for my target.
Things are a little different now. Just a few years back, and I'm talking like 2015-2016 it was hard to do some AAA titles at 1440/60. You needed the top end. Esp if you wanted all the eye candy.
Now we have upper mid range cards that can provide 2160/60 and 1440/120 with most eye candy.
A lot more variety back in the industry. Mid range cards matter again.
Edt: To play AAA titles maxed just a few years back it required $2K+ in GPUs. Now you can usually max AAAs with $1K in GPUs and not the flagships.
Does that make more sense?

That's true. Plus you can buy high end 8c/16t CPU's for 300 bucks now.
$600 between CPU and GPU now and you can easily run 1440p/100Hz+.

Yeah.
Maybe that is where my hatred for AMD comes from, their failure in pushing Intel and AMD.
They made me purchase 2.5K(gpus+blocks) every 1.5yrs.
But the industry is back to a good place and getting better.
This is the perfect example of why competition in a market is healthy and benefits the consumer.

Im in the need for a new chair and I saw on the Twitter that you just got the Secretlab Omega. I've been looking at them too. How do you like it so far?

Same. I feel like I only have poor posture when I'm sitting in my desk chair.
Are the arms easy to move out of the way?

We had a party here about 2-3 weeks ago with roughly 100ppl. Some ppl brought their children, np.
But they all wanted to sneak into my computer/gaming room to play with Legos and Amiibos.
Loved telling them "No that isnt a toy!"
The confused looks on their faces.

They are really nice chairs, best ones of the type. Very good for back compared to the cheaper more arcade style racer ones.
The softweave fabric ones are awesome.

I love it.
But why the goofy nerd branding all over the chair?
Can you buy non branded chairs?
