Zippo and lighter fuel?

 

[FreedomEclipse]

they are installed Kinda cool i guess but i wish they were more like the activity LEDs that used to be on the older DDR corsair XMS modules - I had a set of those and they were great!

About to go hit the gym right now but i'll see if i can make a short video with them flashing or something.

Or just link someone elses video

After reading about 980Ti performance on 1440p. What would be a good price for my 970s? lol

@the54thvoid

Told you I knew what card you'd be buying

So @the54thvoid, when are you picking up your SLI 980ti's? You and I both know you're not going for the 390X

EDIT: I reckon NVidia are like the Conservative party. Everybody moans about them at every chance they get, and yet they still get the biggest share of the votes!

I can say it in the elegant UK clubhouse with our civilised manners that I'm really disappointed in the Fury X. I genuinely thought AMD had an outright winner on their hands but it's just not good enough. A water cooled 980ti will annihilate it. I've also figured i can get the same performance from a single 980ti at 1400Mhz+ that I do with dual 780ti Classy's

Also means I don't have to give my 780ti's away for free (I believe I made that post when someone suggested Fury X will be x% faster than maxwell). That being said, once the 980ti Classy is out (with associated water block) I'll move on and will donate both cards to TPU'ers.

@Finners - a single 780ti Classy isn't worth switching to from what you have!

 

[Finners]

Haha you say that but could almost be worth it just to get back to nvidia drivers,

AMD are playing silly buggers ATM and have split the drivers between 200 series and below and 300 series and up. So they are actually withholding driver performance from their current customers.

I've installed the inf modded drivers and GTA v is much better than the official drivers for my card.

As for fury, I'm disappointed to. Was hoping it would perform better across almost all games to keep nvidia prices in check.

Yeah man I said that in a forum post but some AMD zealot took offence. You know what? I love the neutrality of this clubhouse. It's a breath of fresh air (Scottish air you English bastards ).

EDIT: though I live near a motorway and there is a landfill site in smelling distance on a wrong windy day. So maybe your air is nicer (but not in London).

 

[Finners]

Landfill? You caveman we burn our waste down here in the 21st century south

Just thought why are you donating both your cards? Didn't you say your old man was rocking a 270x, he'd see a nice improvent

It's a case of the vocal minority. I think a very large portion of this forum is sensible about these sorts of things, another portion tends not to say anything at all, only read, and then you have a couple of derpy mcderps that will defends a company until death-do-they-part. They mostly argue with cherry picked links, and everybody points and laughs. Unfortunately in most cases they don't necessarily do anything wrong, aside from making themselves look like morons, so nothing can really be done about it other than to look on them with frowning eyes.

He can buy a new card - he's a wealthy retired pensioner. Christ he's rocking a new H80GT watercooled 4790k and 16Gb ram. His PC's better than many tech nerds on TPU.

one had this problem recently
Had james the butler summon our badger hunting Game Keeper to remonstrate with the silly Oik.

Lol and behold the tike started to abuse our poor Game keeper

Guess what
not seen the Oik since
it might explain the New Mole hill on Ones Private Putting Green

The Game Keeper assures me its a new Mole hill and will settle soon He says its like a fresh grave it will level out with time and be perfect for Putting on later

that reminds me Gamekeepers gilly suit is getting a little TATTY One must arrange for a new one soon

I mean hey, if they are going free, my home will warmly welcome them

Probably one of the more interesting ways to advertise a car at the car show. On the way back from goodwood FOS on a 3 hour rainy drive...

Wow, you must really have been lying low in the grass to get that perspective

We're getting hit with 31 degrees tomorrow "apparently". Sat in a nice air conditioned office for the duration of the day, then I'm stuck inside recording video for the entirety of the evening and then piecing it all together. Reviewing after if I have time. If only I could make a full time job living out of this, it might be less life-consuming!

 

[Bo$$]

going silverstone on saturday... i'm gonna fucking die if it's as hot as today!
