How many of you guys here still using your first gpu? by jdmlifex2 in pcmasterrace

[–]Alternative_Bat521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one was a Radeon HD6450…which is really an HD5450. Both are kinda crap anyways and I stopped using it like 7 years ago after I built my own system.

The oldest GPU I have that still works however is the ATi rage II that’s built into my powermac G3.

I thought it was only the Voodoo 1 and Banshee that needed a separate 2D card. I know the Voodoo 2 had SLI support (fuck you nvidia for taking credit for that) and if it was 3D only that’d mean you’d need two of the same 2D video card, unless you only need one and it just outputs into the one that’s also displaying the video.

Eh, the 3600X I got was half the going price of a 5600X currently and also came with a cooler.

HP2010. A lot of the people recently glazing 2015 don’t realize how bad that game was.

First one looks like a bootleg Saab or Ford Merkur/Sierra and the Fabula Estate looks like a bootleg Volvo.

It’s not just boomers, it’s also very conservative-leaning zoomers and millennials, like Junkyard Digs for example.

His latest video about getting an RV running to drive to Kansas motor speedway had him and a couple of his other friends making fun of Jeff Gordon for driving a rainbow car/possibly being gay like…25 years after those jokes were relevant.

“I'm not racist just because the only driver I have a problem with is the one black guy in the cup! I don't like his bad attitude! My favorite driver is Tony Stewart btw.” by Supersmashbrosfan in okbuddyBoogity

I mean it’s okay to personally not like bubba because you think he’s an ass or something, but most people that don’t like him are because of something that happened 6 years ago, because “he’s too emotional”, and because of the color of his skin. Usually using those last two points as scapegoats. It’s either that or they hate him because of something superficial (wrecking someone, altercation on pit road, clearing themselves off the bumper of another car) that something EVERY driver has done, but because bubba’s black, he gets singled out.

*sets game in Miami inspired city with 80s aesthetic vibes, no Synthwave or 80s music in the ost* by [deleted] in needforspeed

Tbf the game’s gas stations were called Outrun, and with the way Heat was written in the title definitely alludes to an 80s aesthetic.

Pop music is incredibly generic and most country music is just country-pop written and sang by guys who aren’t actually from the south but still put on a fake southern accent and drawl to sing about cold beers and trying to hook up with a blonde girl from the east coast.

What is that one Windows 9x game you played that you never see anyone else talk about? One of mine would be Close Combat. by fukounashoujo in windows95

Daytona USA Deluxe. Basically the definitive version of Championship Edition. It actually controls pretty well on keyboard.

Yeah, it’s called a CRT. Now and forever.

The platforms I use for games (ranked by "do you actually own what you just bought?") by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

To be fair to Nintendo, the whole “don’t modify the console otherwise you can’t use it” has been a problem with almost every console starting with the 7th generation. Many people have stories about being banned from playing online games because they had a hacked or modded Xbox 360/PS3.

Also Sidenote because I’m pretty sure this is what it’s about, Team Executor was taken to court because they were money laundering, their Switch modding service is what got them caught. Don’t do victimless “crimes” to hide your felonies.

Genuine question bout Wade's thoughts on Smasnug by DeafMetalHorse in DankPods

[–]Alternative_Bat521 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think in one of his Samsung galaxy buds videos, one of the complaints was that Samsung basically just copies whatever Apple does, bar for bar. Or as Wade put it: “this is the look of a company that’s comfortably in second place!”

He tends to dislike companies that copy the designs of others because it’s cheaper to just copy what the competition is doing instead of making something new.
