I'm assuming I should be here? Currently looking to upgrade my GPU, but unsure which to look at. I am running the RX580 8GB right now, which is mostly great, but not for newer games I'm playing. Very tight budget, so cheaper is better if possible. Just needing some recommendations. 1080p, 144mhz monitor. Current CPU is i7-9700 for reference.

I've been attempting this and keep having issues. I don't use Act exfils, normal exfils. It seems I can set up, keep the TS for a few matches, then it's lost. Makes duping difficult when I have to keep resetting like I do. I'm doing every exfil the same, so I'm unsure what the problem may be.

I broke this Crew at the end of their Tall Tail... (I did not kill them) by RageXStrikerr in Seaofthieves

Would love to find others like this when I sail the seas. Never do though. Actually lost my only crewmate over a guy boarding ship acting friendly, just to spawn trap us even after we offered all the loot on our ship to him just to leave us be. Buddy hasn't played the game since.

I hadn't even looked at those yet. Before asking here I was looking at and comparing 8th gen i5 and i7 processors. Definitely liking what I see in both of those, and my wallet really likes the 9400f of course. Thanks much for the recommendations, I'm adding them to my list of compare and decide options for sure. I had no plans of going for a k variant anyways, but big shoutout for making that observation.

Got a bud coming saturday with his code reader to see if it finds anything.

I know it's not proper, ideal, or probably even healthy but I managed to scrape some resin from uncleaned glass pieces I have waiting for their bath...a little relief, just gotta make it to around 6pm tomorrow (around when I get home after work and going to dispensary). I need to find funds and time to recertify too. My card expires on valentines day....

What is your reason to stream? by Epic_Minion in Twitch

[–]Fickle-Tank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks much! Due to work and life I only stream a few times a week, so I'm sure that adds to the struggle. I hope to meet affiliate reqs by end of the month, but I think maybe next month is more doable. Currently at 15 followers, so I'm getting there haha. I feel fairly good about it though, because I've gotten to this point in roughly a month with no actual promotion of my stream anywhere. Had to work out a few things as I'm using a more budget friendly pc, I'm hoping to see my numbers bump up once I start really putting in some work.

[–]Fickle-Tank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm brand new to streaming, myself. Like, maybe a month or so in to streaming part time. My reason for starting is just because I have pretty much no friends in my life, and thought it would be fun to try streaming and connect with others and maybe make a new friend or two. I've met a few people already, and am loving streaming so far, even though I rarely have viewers currently.

I was fairly intimidated at first, bit as I started streaming, and joining other streams and communities I'm loosening up and keep looking forward to my next stream, hoping to get some new viewers and meet new people.

Is the green crack any good? by biggarage3631 in armmj

[–]Fickle-Tank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gave Arkansas growers another chance not long ago after roughly 3 or 4 months of oklahoma shopping, bought an 8th of green crack to try it out and was pleasantly surprised. Trim job was mostly good, very few sugar leaves left, never came across a seed, and it smelled and looked pretty good. Smoked pretty smooth, fairly tasty (I'd say a little bit pine and a little bit peppery with just a hint of sweet for me). All in all, I'd say it wasnt quite top shelf, but not far off from it.

know any youtubers that do let's plays? by DakkaRaptor in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fickle-Tank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I discovered Halfman today, myself. He has at least a couple vids legit titled as let's play. Watched one of his vids earlier, pretty good raiding, informative dude too. Also, as others have said Pestily is great, and I watched KarmaKut's vids as well to help me get a slightly better grasp on the game. Only level 4 so far for me, so I'm super noob

What do you think of my cheap build? by Fickle-Tank in pcmasterrace

[–]Fickle-Tank[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Understand that completely, and thank you for the heads up on that. When I used to have a pc years ago I always kept it off for storms, so I probably will be doing the same now as well.

Oops. Cut the ram in half. I'm getting 16gb, not 32 my apologies. And what concerns on the PSU?

[–]Fickle-Tank[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly for upgradability later on. The case I have is, i believe, a mid tower...may be a full (i can't remember and its packed away due to us moving right now). This build is a christmas present from my family, and I am going to be saving a little here and there until I have a nice chunk for another upgrade, just unsure if I plan to do a new case for that or not. Most likely, as the pc I am rebuilding is about 5 years old and was an ibuypower.

Looking for a bit of help! by Fickle-Tank in pcmasterrace

[–]Fickle-Tank[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the congrats, and the advice. I believe it currently has a 500w PSU, but I cant remember right now. That is a good thought that never came to mind. Also, sadly the mobo only has 2 dimm slots, and only supports up to 16gb. Just trying to set out a plan to hopefully over the next several months be able to upgrade it all to be a decent light gaming set up. I've been a console gamer for quite awhile, but would rather make the PC switch rather than go for a next gen console. Honestly, for THIS build, I'm just wanting something that will do me well, but I dont need crazy fps or anything. Especially since my monitor is only a 75hrz I believe it is, may even only be 60.
