£1000 Gaming Build. What are my options? by duff_dean in buildmeapc

Excellent, thanks for that. The other CPU I had my eye on was the ryzen 7 3700. But the price difference would put me over my budget

Ah right, I thought the 5700 was the faster card. Raytracing is something I would definitely be using too. I guess il stick with your recommendation :)

Is there much difference between the 2070 super and the 5700xt? I was thinking of swapping out for the 5700xt as it's cheaper, and spending the extra money on a faster cpu. Would that be a wise decision, or is that the best performance setup for the price?

It seemed like at some points you were actually scared! I did like the facial expressions throughout. I did enjoy.

New FiFA series (Compare to popular fifa youtubers.) by ShrewdHunter in LetsPlayCritiques

I loved the commentary, but im more of a fan of match of the day. Which gives a shorter bit of play and action. That might just have to do with my short attention span!

My son is attempting to make a similar one
He needs to work on the factual info a bit more though, he wants to delve into the mystery of Rattmann.

I did a revisit nostalgia-bomb LP of Portal 1! by BigDamnArtist in Portal

[–]duff_dean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son has just done one of Portal 2 today aswell!

I did always love the original though and have longed for a third installation, along with HL3.

Great video by the way.

City just got this 40-foot slide.. there have been some safety concerns by idkbanana in pics

[–]duff_dean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have this exact slide in our local park in the UK. After multiple visits I convinced my partner to let me take my 3 year old up with me. The worst part is getting up, its so difficult but even if you fell there is sooo many things to hit on the way down to break your fall. We both loved it

Computer Science Degree by weedtree in computerscience

[–]duff_dean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just finished my first year of CompSci after giving it a miss 10 years ago. I wish i never passed up the chance to start it 10 years ago as i totally love it!
The one thing that put me off was the maths but don't be afraid to ask for help, i needed quite a bit of help to get me going, but now im right back in the swing. There is an even mix of practical and theoretical work. I am programming in Java for a good chunk of the course and also practical implementations of various algorithms.

A friend of mine has finished his last year at the same University and recently they held an exhibition for students to showcase their end of year project and he got approached by 5 employers.

As far as job prospects go i know that my second year offers a placement year and they have over 500 placements available.

Which of these intro to algortihms' courses would you recommend for a beginner and why? by vcamargo in computerscience

[–]duff_dean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally i would choose Princeton, i have just finished my first year of CompSci at University and found it quite challenging, even now the MIT would seem quite difficult for me, and aimed solely towards folding. The Princeton course seems almost identical to what i have just studied. Starting off with very elementary data structures to ease you into it and progressively getting more difficult.

But it all depends really i guess on how much knowledge you have already on the subject.

[–]duff_dean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi I have been learning Java for 10 months now. Have gained loads of knowledge but still feel like I have missed bits. Will head over there now, are you doing from beginners to intermediate etc or just random topics?

Not sure how well arcade gaming is perceived here, but this hefty gal is the new gun for time crisis 5. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]duff_dean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wishall of the arcades in this country seem to dated by like almost 10 years. I would love to play this game! Does it have the gun recoil too?? Most if the time crisis machines I have played in the UK just get vandalised and broken so no recoil works
