    EA Defies Belgian Lootbox Law

    Yeah, who cares about a 300 billion illicit drug trade, 30 billion human trafficking or 9 billion annual revenue illicit wildlife trade. Someone is willing to pay and therefore it's ok, right? If you let predators roam unchecked, it's just a matter of time before they turn their gaze to you. I...

    Damn 7820x is impressive (my own chip)

    I've been playing around a bit with mine. Screenshot is an hour of non-AVX prime95. It got pretty hot. Is an hour long enough to be reasonably certain it's stable? I am thinking of setting 4 core ratio to 46 and 8 core to 44 for now... Kraken x62 for cooling with 4 fans push/pull - it's pretty...

    A Dedrone is a Good Drone

    Wow, this is a bit like killing a fly with dynamite - the remedy being more harmfull then the problem. Are lasers more dangerous then drones? - Yes. As a matter of fact after reading your post, it's safe to assert that a laser in your hands is more dangerous then a modern drone being conrolled...

    Hackers Tricked A Tesla Into Hitting Objects In Its Path

    So the attack vector on autopilot involves high powered lasers and/or jamming equipment. An attack vector against an average driver is sending them a snapchat.... ...how exactly is this an argument AGAINST autopilot?

    Why Would An Adult Man Play Video Games?

    The way he was describing his experience of the "real world" I am not surprised he needs an escape, and I guess writing biased and subjective articles is his escape. Somebody give this man a hug, some antidepressants and tell him that it's going to be OK.

    Hidden Camera Stunt Highlights The Absurdness Of Geo-Blocking

    Quoting some definition of the word "theft" does not disprove, or even adress my point. I said that downloading a pirated torrent is LIKE stealing. "Traditional" theft of a physical item has 2 compenents: 1. You take something that does not belong to you. 2. You make another suffer a loss...

    Hidden Camera Stunt Highlights The Absurdness Of Geo-Blocking

    You really don't get it. Imagine, you as a US citizen not being able to buy a taco anywhere in the world... Why? .- Because your local wallmart is going to start selling tacos next year and wants a monopoly. That's what geoblocking is about, creating monopolies, and monopolies are NEVER good for...

    EVGA GTX 780 Classified or Ti

    After re-reading my post, I've realized this is a dumb question so I have deleted it. Sorry for polluting the forum. Mods are welcome to delete the thread.

    Should a GTX680 be able to handle 80C

    This is my GTX680. It is factory overclocked. I agree that this looks like a bad memory overclock. Since it is factory overclocked I expect it to function as advertised, so I will be sending the card back. I just need to prepair in case they start arguing that the card isn't ment to run at 80C

    Should a GTX680 be able to handle 80C

    There is nothing wrong with cooling on that card. If I run Heaven on it alone with fan limited to 20% it never goes above 60C. The problem is SLI. There is very little space between the cards, so it get hot air from the first card. The card hits 84C running Heaven in SLI. Nvidia GTX680 thermal...

    Should a GTX680 be able to handle 80C

    I got an ASUS GTX680 DC20. As soon as it hits 80 degrees it starts artifacting. What temperatures are these cards supposed to be able to handle? Judging by the Fan control curve its somewhere in the 90s My other GTX680 doesn't suffer from such problems. Cards are in SLI, the top card gets...

    New system - unstable out of the box

    Switching PCI-e slots to gen2 stabilized the system. This is apparently a problem with the board. Maximus VI Extreme can not properly run SLI in the recommended (native) slot configuration of slot 1 and slot 2B. As far as I can tell ASUS has known about this for a while and has ignored the...

    New system - unstable out of the box
