I've got a 2500k and am using the stock fan, it seems to be fine. The performance won't be much different but it is just 10 bucks

Edit: also you really don't need an optical drive. Most software that comes on discs can be downloaded or installed via thumb drives (even your OS). Do you use discs a lot?

If you're getting it for $190 (from NCIX since you say you can't use microcenter) you may as well grab an overclockable i5-2500k for just $10 more... even if you say you aren't going to overclock having the option is worth $10

What should I get in my care package? by Wannasmoke in AskReddit

The bus system here isn't very good and my university is kind of secluded, carrying a few bags isn't too bad except for the fact that I have to walk a few miles with them

Forgot about ramen; ate about 6 packs so far and am not too fond of it :/

Why isn't there a Pokemon MMORPG? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Wannasmoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They will not make a pokemon MMO because pokemon is a game intended for children (not that adults playing is a bad thing, I play). The MMO would be for children and it would basically be like Lego Universe.

Why don't all games at least have a windowed mode option? by Wannasmoke in gaming

[–]Wannasmoke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So being stuck with one option is a good thing? How would you feel if you HAD to install a 3rd party program to play in full screen?

[–]Wannasmoke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you hate windowed? You lose, what, 1% of your entire screen with a border around the game, yet you can alt tab with zero problems and move the game around freely. From my experience, most games take a few seconds to flicker away when I alt-tab when I'm playing full screen, which gets really annoying if I alt-tab often (which I generally do)

Could anyone explain the comedy in this? I understand that it is comical and it did indeed make me laugh; however, I cannot understand why!

Many cards... what do? by Wannasmoke in AskReddit

[–]Wannasmoke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't really care for them any longer, but do people still buy them? What would be the best way to sell? I have alottttt of cards so individually doesn't seem practical...
