  1. 434686 Na dann... Guess I'll start living off grid now. Are PCs flammable? I guess with enough gasoline... Also, everybody with lower end processors will LOVE that performance hit.
  2. 434595 Guess I'll give my gf a Ryzen build then. At least this isn't as bad as the whole Bulldozer architecture. I kinda feel bad for my little bro. The best he could ever hope for is an FX 9590. Good thing for him since he doesn't have any liquid cooling either.
  3. 434593 Just 16 more days and I quit my job. Wow. Now I regret spending my 13,000 Rubles on my 4690K
  4. --Find out your husband's gay? Damn, I hate it when that happens. 434586 It's never too early for vodka or rum shots when you're working class, broke, and can't afford to do anything but drink. But that's my take on it.
  5. 434324 I'm a cold weather person, but this is intense! @Satanichia Kurumizawa McDowell Can I have some of your warm weather?
  6. I don't plan to do anything. Probably catch up on the Grand Tour episodes I missed with my girlfriend. We might even watch the ball drop in NYC on TV. I'm pretty boring.
  7. 434322 My favorite superhero. Straya.
  8. 434320 How is 2018, Dawn? Is the future bright?
  9. 434,279 Caps, do you drive? Take the train? How long is it for you? Just curious. "This is the easiest thing I've done all day."
  10. 434,278 I don't really want to, but just because I'm all traveled out. I easily have driven over 2,000 miles this week. Not a whole lot happened for me. Any plans for New Year?
  11. 434,276 So how was everybody's Christmas/other holidays?
  12. 434,273 I can only imagine what kind of frustration IT guys deal with every day.
  13. 434,271 I only read the 98 degrees because that's the kind of number I was looking for. I've never seen a UEFI tell you your CPU temp in anything but Celsius... Which is funny because from about 2013 thru 2015, this was my primary motherboard. I should have known about that quirk. So yeah, I diagnosed a perfectly healthy working PC.
  14. 434256 Yooo Not dead yet. Just really busy. I've spent probably 30 hours in a car over the past 7 days. Also, my brother called me earlier this week saying, "Hey, how hot is my PC supposed to be?" I answered, "Well if it's around 100 degrees, you should probably turn it off and let me take a look at it." Now my brother is a user, not a builder. He hardly knows diddly squat about building PC's. He just really appreciates the one I built him (even if it's just a spare parts rig). Him: Oh. Well it's about 98 degrees right now and it was at about 105 degrees earlier. Me: Yeah, if it's about 100 degrees Celsius, then it's overheating. Turn it off and let me take a look at it. I mean, 80 is pretty high, but not worrisome, but definitely don't use it if it's 100 degrees. Him: Ok. Fast forward to tonight, and I'm taking a look at it. I notice in BIOS that yeah - it's running about 85 degrees on a cold start. So I log into Windows and everything is telling me it's much cooler than that. So I write it off as an error in BIOS since the heatsink is ice cold and the fans are silent. Then I get back into BIOS to make sure his buddy who gave him an SSD did the transfer right. I'm positive he did since he works with computers for a living. He's a white hat hacker. Incredibly intelligent so I didn't doubt his work. Just double checking that everything works as intended. Well I look up and it says 98 Fahrenheit/37 Celsius. He was reading me temps in Fahrenheit. I read the Fahrenheit temp. Why does this UEFI even have the temp in Fahrenheit? Who tf is building and monitoring a PC and using FAHRENHEIT? So yeah, I feel like an idiot.
  15. 433731 @(No) Snow Fillypino I'll just leave this here.
  16. 433688 I was washing my hands in the restroom when one of my buddies walks in and says, "It's getting kind of sad now." I asked, "What's that?" And he replied, "You leaving. Out of here and on to greener pastures. I'm happy for you, but I'm gonna miss you, bud " Like, don't do this to me, man. I'm a bawler, not a baller. My last day at this job is January 19, and we're about be off til the 2nd. So we'll come back to work and I'll be here only about 2 more weeks. It is kinda sad, I guess.
  17. 433351 @Kawaii Besu @Katie Konqi Please kill me. This guy is a piece Ajit. You'd think that with the millions of phone calls and letters that killing net neutrality would have been an easy no, but it seems the people who are supposed to be representing the people don't represent the people. They obviously want to line their pockets.
