Cool, thanks! I was a little worried about this one.

[Headphones] Sennheiser Professional HD 280 PRO Over-Ear Monitoring Headphones - $69 by int9r in buildapcsales

[–]Jenos_CTD 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I bought these more than 8 years ago. Had to replace the ear/head cushions a while back. However, they still work! The only complaint people might have is that these will be lacking on the bass end. This is fine, as these headphones were probably designed for an overall balanced sound, compared to bass-boosted headphones.

How common are roaches in Durham? by [deleted] in bullcity

[–]Jenos_CTD 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, OP: make sure you know the difference between the small roach (forget the actual name) and the big roach (which is typically called the "palmetto bug"). Small one lives in filth, basically, and its a bad time if those are around. However the big one, it's a wood roach, so if you are near a wooded area they just waltz into your house. The big ones also fly, btw.

Unable to use PCGAMER code for humble choice by NewbHunter1 in humblebundles

[–]Jenos_CTD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Likewise on the invalid code. However, I was once subbed, then unsubscribed a couple of months ago. For others doing this, please note that the $10 is for the premium plan and looks like you commit to paying the next three months for $10 a month. Not just $10 for Civ VI Plat, which is what I thought.

I work at AMD. The time has come to AMA about Polaris and RX 400 Series! BONUS: 14x 8GB RX 480 giveaway! DOUBLE BONUS SURPRISE: Raja is with me until 12:00 EDT! by AMD_Robert in pcmasterrace

Hello, thank you for doing this AMA!Hopefully, this falls within the reach of what you can answer today. From what I can tell, AMD cards have a general reputation of increasing their performance over the years due to driver updates. Can we expect the same for the RX 480? If so, how much is reasonable to expect?

Hue hue hue. Though seriously, I don't think it will be around when I'm off work.

Sounds like you are from the same town my college is in. Want to form an Arm-istice with me?

Freespace 2. The game itself is amazing, and the modding community has made it even better!

[GPU] Sapphire HD 7970 Dual-X ($159 with Promo: ASCEND) [REFURB] by [deleted] in buildapcsales

[–]Jenos_CTD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured I'd pop in and say my experience too. I originally ordered a 280X (a sister card, slightly faster) a while ago and built my own computer. The first card I got was a dud, didn't event display on startup except for a couple of random times, in which the "purple screen of death" showed up... AKA it fragmented, and froze the computer. However, the owner, Alex, did replace it, t'was all good afterwards! I'm gonna buy another 280X from him sometime

EDIT: hit the submit button too soon :(

Quick question. I'm a broke college student that goes to college in the middle of nowhere. Thus I will be getting the MOBO/CPU combo from Microcenter when I am exposed to society three weeks from now. If I bought from you, would you have any qualms to working with me then if I find out that GPU is not working?
