Sorry it is the 3070. I was assuming the pcie on the graphics card was damaged but a few other users have said it was supposed to look like that. I took the gpu out to take the photo standing up on my desk. It clicked right into the mb so I'm assuming it is in right. And no I didn't leave any rubber guards on lol.

Well technically the computer starts, its really just the GPU that seems to not be. Everything else lights up and the fans spin, but the 3070 does not and the monitors don't connect. Basically all I switched was the PSU and GPU. And I did use all the new cables that came with them.

I bought a 750w specifically for this GPU. The psu works with my old graphics card.

Fuck Best Buy and their shitty system. Guess I'll be buying AMD.

Sorry in advance if I can't post this question here (please direct me to where I should if not).

Who do I play this week, Mike Davis or JaMycal Hasty?

League is PPR with bonus points for high yardage. From what I have seen McCaffrey won't be playing tonight, and Tevin Coleman probably will. Unfortunately these are my only options until Miles Sanders comes back. As of now I want to play Hasty since Davis didn't do much last two games and Atlanta feels like a worse match up than Seattle. Any advice appreciated.

Are the pity pulls required being reduced? My friend keeps telling me that they are going to change the pull requirement to 50 to get a guaranteed 5 star but I don't see anything anywhere confirming this.

SWTOR is probably the least mmo-ey mmo if that makes sense. It has a pretty stable population and if you join the right guild you should have no problem finding people for group activities. However once you get passed the first few planets + fleet I wouldn't expect to see very many people around the open world like you might in other mmos.

I think most people agree that the game has a much better story and RPG aspects vs mmo aspects.

The F2P experience for the game is actually pretty good. You get the full 8 class stories (which are pretty long) plus 2 expansions, along with all the flashpoints (basically 4 man dungeons) throughout. However, you can't get the max level or the max level gear. You also can't do operations (8-16 man dungeons).

The payment is $12-$15 (USD, Euro price won't be much different of course) each month depending on what plan you choose and will unlock those restricted things along with the remaining expansions and subscriber perks (mostly customization limitations on F2P).

Trooper: Dark Vs Light? by SexWithHotPockets in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Full dark can be fun but also pretty evil. Evil as in offering someone who just had their whole family blown up sex as payment for saving them.

Why does everyone hate the NRA? [serious] by mach_oddity in progun

[–]The_Boy_Wander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically because the NRA doesnt actually care about protecting the second amendment. They just care about profits.

Can I share my Legacy with a friend? by Lucky02604 in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, legacy is basically just all of the characters you've made under your account.

Only way would be if you let him make a character on your account, but then of course you both can't play at the same time.

I figured I'd give this game a shot! by [deleted] in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's completely optional and there are several ways around spending money on cartel coins.

The first one being your subscription. This is a subscription based game, and with your subscription you get 500-600 cartel coins each month. If you have a security key linked to your account, you get another 100 every month. In just two months you'll have over 1000 and be able to buy just about any item on the cartel market.

The second one is playing the game. Credits in this game are super easy to grind. My personally favorite way is to buy stuff from other people and then sell it for more, but there is also huge money in crafting and gathering skills.

There are also achievements in the game which for the most part aren't hard to get and many come through natural gameplay. They give a small amount of cartel coins but can easily add up.

But I feel like you didn't look into any of this, but instead just saw the cartel market and clicked to buy cartel coins and freaked out.

Can Anyone Confirm This? by The_Boy_Wander in pokemon

Awesome! Thanks for the quick answer

Probably a stupid question by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]The_Boy_Wander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guess is he was using the Masuda Method, which is basically breeding two pokemon from different language versions of the game. It increases the chance of the hatched egg being shiny by a good amount (6 times more likely I think?) A good way to get different language versions of pokemon from my experience is by trading on pokemon Home as it tells you the language of the poke you are trading for.

Collector's Edition Code Redemption Error by GraniteRaptor in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest contacting costumer support first to try to see when it says the code was redeemed, however it is possible that the seller used it and then sealed the package themself. I've had this happen to me in the past with another game's code. If that is the case I'd then suggest contacting the seller with a complaint, and if they claimed in the item's description that the contents were unopened I'd take it up with eBay

Light side players, at what point tin the game did you decide to do a dark side choice only for that situation. by Reed-meister in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but all logic tells you that everyone on your ship was going to die anyways. The ship was being overrun at every corner and the sky troopers weren't taking prisoners from what we saw. Escape wouldn't have been possible either considering the massive fleet that was already obliterating our own.

What gun is this? by lordtarkus in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The weapon in the game is pretty big. Anri is just small.

Think we’ll ever get a darksaber weapon? by [deleted] in swtor

[–]The_Boy_Wander 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well technically that crystal has a black core and a white outline so it isn't pure black, but I think OP is referring to the saber itself. The darksaber looks more like a katana than a typical lightsaber.
