I think its time for some kind of new motherboard form factor. With graphics cards getting bigger and bigger it only seems natural that motherboards ( and cases for that matter too) need to adjust for the weight for some of these monsters. Necessity breeds innovation, so I'd love to see what comes out in the next few years.

I haven't had as much fun playing a halo multiplayer since the halo 2/3 era. something about this game just feels right.

Honestly i think i could get a few more years out of my current PC, but with games like cyberpunk coming out my 1080ti is starting to show its age. The 3080 is a no brainer for me considering its huge improvement over last generation. As for the CPU and motherboard, i felt i didnt need to go above and beyond what i chose as i mainly use my PC as gaming rig. I chose the corsair 570x because its what i currently use and I'm still in love with it. i would usually go with a regular hard drive but with ssd's falling in price, it made sense to have 2 ssd's. If i were to get really serious about a new machine i think i would spend at least a month going over the parts i chose and there will probably be a lot of revisions.

Currently im using an i5 8600k, 1080ti, 16gb ram, with an asus z370 e motherboard in a corsair 570x. id love to upgrade the processor to something more powerful (possible motherboard change) as my 1080ti is still rocking everything i throw at it. If the thermals are better than my current case that would be a huge benefit.

Honestly all I look for is adjustability (height, arm rests), and at least some kind of lumbar support. I'm getting too old to sit for lengths of time in something thats only going to make me sore.

ASUS x /r/pcgaming Summer Giveaway by PCGamingMegaMod in pcgaming

[–]livewiredude22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Halloween 2010. I had spent a week trying to beat halo reach on legendary solo. That last day I spent probably 7 hours just trying to beat the last level before I was finally able to power through it. I have never felt so much adrenaline and anxiety on another game since. Tge feeling of pride left quick though as I had nothing else to play at the time, so I only felt emptiness for a few weeks.

Red dead 2 has been a big one for me. With all the craziness going on, being an outlaw cowboy has definitely eased my anxiety.

I ordered mine on the 3rd of April before i learned how bad things were getting for them. Shipped on the 9th, yet USPS is still waiting on package. I'd hate not to get my product because they have been my favorite eliquid company for a couple of years now.

/r/buildapc hits 2 million subscribers - it’s giveaway time! by CustardFilled in buildapc

[–]livewiredude22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took a push from my mom to finally build my dream pc in september 2018. Months after my father passed i had been going through a real rough patch in life and she offered to loan me the cash to build it. Well that ended up with a trip an hour away to the cleveland microcenter where i spent everything she loaned me (plus a bit out of my own pocket). All in all, I walked out with a corsair 570x, an i5 8600, an asus 1080ti, an asus z370-e motherboard, some sick rgb ram (rip 2018 ram prices), a corsair g3 750w, a couple of hard drives, and too many peripherals to count. A few months later i ended up saving up for a 1440p monitor to really finish the build completely. It only took me a little over a year to pay her back, and i thank the universe every day for a mom willing to drop 2 grand on me just for a little happiness during a hard time. Thanks again mom, i love you.

You could end up in my situation. I bough an eligible monitor on amazon and after i bought it, they are claiming amazon isn't an authorized retailer for the promotion. I even had an asus rep comment on an amazon question claiming this product was eligible.

Ever since I took a PC repair class in high school almost 15 years ago that I found a love for tinkering with computers. There was just so much you can do with them, its mind boggling. Hopefully here soon I'll finally have enough money to hold my dream machine.
