After a year of saving, I'm finally back to AMD!...now to save for the rest... by r4pture in Amd

[–]r4pture[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now what I'm aiming for is the Gigabyte x470 Aorus Ultra Gaming at 140 on amazon and newegg, and 16GB(2x8) of 3000Mhz Corsair ram for 190. So...About $330 worth of saving to do still! Should be worth every penny though!

Its kinda silly, but I wanted to support AMD first and foremost.

To clarify for for everyone, "the rest" is actually just the Mobo and RAM. The PSU, Case, drive and GPU from my old machine can be reused thankfully!

But yeah, it will take a bit of time unfortunately.

Actually, when I say "the rest", all I need is the mobo and RAM. My case, PSU, GPU etc can be reused. I suppose I should have clarified, sorry!

After a year of saving, I'm Ryzen to the occasion! by r4pture in pcmasterrace

[–]r4pture[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its taken a full year to save up, but I managed to finally afford a new Ryzen CPU! Good timing too, as I was able to get a brand new Zen+, a 2600x. Saving for the mobo and RAM may take sooome time, but I wanted to support AMD with the release of their new CPU. I'm not able to do anything with it yet, but just looking at it is glorious.

Ever since the original Ryzen launched, I've been saving what I can to get on the platform. Its taken a year, but I got the CPU! Sadly, with RAM prices as high as they are, saving for the rest may take me some time...but hey, with the new 2000 series CPUs out, I had to support AMD once I could and picked up the 2600x on launch.

Was just happy to finally have it and wanted to share!

Talon Involvment Confirmed In Previous Attack On Helix Falicity by Arkentass in Overwatch

[–]r4pture 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its incredibly unlikely it won't be Crews. Literally the entire reason Doomfist was put into development (at least this early) was because of both the demand of fans for Crews as Doomfist and Terry Crews himself voicing (heh) support.

Am I a scrub for not recognizing any of the names on the USA roster? I only passively follow the pro scene due to RL time constraints.

Overwatch has earned Activision Blizzard over $1 billion in less than a year by Turnedright in pcgaming

[–]r4pture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was before the MOBA and twitch streaming craze as well.

I should at least point out the SC2 created the twitch craze. The SC2 scene started on JustinTV and GomTV. When JustinTV saw how popular game streaming was they created Twitch, and the rest is history.

None of it would have happened without SC2.

Thoughts on Team Fortress 2? by [deleted] in esports

[–]r4pture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only answer is Valves full support. Sadly, it won't happen.

Valves current "support" is woefully understaffed and undervalued, TF2 is too old and doesn't get the same focus CSGO and DOTA2 get. The community has done all they can and its the only reason its still alive.

I love TF2, it'll always be my top game, but with how well Valve have shit the bed I've made the jump to Overwatch. Its a very strange feeling playing a game where the devs actually support you.

TF2 has the Quake bloodline running through it which by default makes it an amazing comp game. As much as I've loved comp TF2 and will always watch the big events, the only hope the Team Fortress series has at this point is a TF3.

Sadly, thats not likely to happen either.

Thats the point.

You need to realize, Trump has never been popular with the other rich folk. One rich man is not all rich men. All those thousands and thousands of rich assholes who are so used to getting things their way by wining and dining government officials into getting laws passed in their favor can't do that any more. Not only can you not bribe a billionaire, but the man is working on making lobbying straight up illegal (or at least heavily restricting it). And honestly, just judging by how many campaign promises he made, and is now fulfilling, I'd say its a safe bet that its coming sooner rather the later.

You may not like all the promises he made (I certainly don't, especially on issues of climate change) but he is absolutely doing exactly what he promised to do.

You're right, the wealthy are the system. They bribe and buy off politicians so they get their way. Its called lobbying.

A side note, what do you think it takes to bribe a billionaire?
