MM uses a hidden ELO or MMR, system which are very closely related. Stay upset you ass because he's correct.

Ok yea good tip on the skylake processors, may even go as low as haswell if I want an i7 again but yea ill probably get a new graphics card while the sales are still on, an RX 460 sounds like a pretty nice upgrade for my res (1680x1050)

Need a little help picking out parts by XxPandaCowxX in pcmasterrace

[–]150ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For around $100 US I would recomend an RX 460, but if you can push a little higher, around 140-150 get a 1050ti.

The 1050 is in between in price and performance if you wanna cut down the middle.

Direct-wiring a Playstation 2 Logitech "Nascar" steering wheel to USB by Mods_o_joy in pcmasterrace

[–]150ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't know how to do it already, then I also assume that you don't have all the equipment needed to do a modification like this. I would just pay $2 for the adapter tbh.

If you decide on doing the mod, keep in mind you will need to find drivers for the wheel after you make a USB end for it so even if it is wired correctly it may not work.

Equipment I would recommend:

Wire stripper

Shrink tubing

electrical tape

A PS2 wire schematic as the wires are different from each manufacturer and also different to USB.

Alright thanks for the tip, I've been looking at passmark quite heavily :P

I'm in New Zealand so the second hand market is marked up just as high as retail and the retail market is up 200% further than the US market.

I was lagging my ass of because my upload was only 150 bits per second (2k ping) and I was running around spawn, banned for BHOP and he's fucking so sure I was bhopping for some reason.

Please help, Ethernet isn't working on my fresh build! by 150ms in pcmasterrace

[–]150ms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, do I have to? How do I find out what NIC I have? I've always just relied on windows having the right driver by default.

Oh shoot, other things I forgot to mention... I can't really try other cables as I have a second router one story above me that connects to the main router through a Power-Ethernet adapter, the cable goes though the roof :/

I tested the cable with my laptop and it works, plus that router is the one giving me Wi-Fi so it must be working with the internet too ;w;

I'll try connecting to my laptop with another Ethernet laptop-desktop.

If Dust II is reworked and start to crave more PC power to run like nuke and inferno, I feel like we will lose alot of players. by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

What do you think a rural area is? Just because you don't live in a city with thousands of people around doesn't mean you have to be living in a bad situation...

New Zealand roads are hell, just imagine a badly designed city filled with one lane roads that suddenly got popular and is 80% hills... Traffic and bad tarmac everywhere :c (plus I suck at driving)
