No 2080Ti? I honestly feel a bit weird having one when the Hutt-lord of the forums might not.

Have you considered a custom loop? If you go with soft tubing and quick disconnects they're actually not that bad to work on and drain (although you shouldn't have to do that more than once a year to once every two years).

Agreed, I'm also a fan of EVGA and only buy their stuff and I've never had an issue (in fact I just upgraded my 1080Ti KingPin to the 2080Ti version, now I just need to get the waterlock and add it into the loop).

Well, this is different...

This is a personal anecdote and shouldn't be treated as a universal truth, but I've had a laptop with an OLED display for a couple of years without any issues. Likewise, there are a few people at work with OLED models and none of them have reported any either.

That's generally true if you're talking about AIO units but once you get into even fairly basic custom loops then you're going to see much larger gains.

Sadly it doesn't look like that will happen anytime soon.

Is it wrong that my initial thought was that Republicans must be a bunch of nVidia fanbois? Looks like I should take a break from computer hardware for awhile...

Are Killing Floor 2 and Crusader Kings 2 still available? I was going to get each of those as a gift for two different people so if they've not been taken that could work out well.

I thought that was the sole reason that this thread existed? Because who needs well thought out arguments when you can jump to the ad hominem? /s - in case that wasn't obvious.

Given that this is WCCFTech the information could be spot on or completely incorrect... July seems unlikely though since, as far as I've heard, there still hasn't been any word on board partners getting specifications or samples?

I'm not sure I'd really count a FUDGE and Fate as d6 systems, you can a use regular d6 with them in a pinch but they're designed to be used with custom dice.

I've not posted my updated rigs yet so I should remedy that!

I'm also looking forward to upgrading to the new 200Hz 1440p Ultrawide screens when they finally launch, provided they aren't too expensive, and might also spring for the next line of GPU unless they don't provide any significant performance gains.

You might want to consider getting a pre-built, tearing the GPU out of it, and then selling the bits you don't need. EVGA is also releasing cards on their site at retail pricing although they usually sell out within a few minutes of going up.

Yeah, it's a classic although I think I would choose the second one if I could only have one of the two since I really like how they implemented 'smarter' AI as part of the difficulty curve instead of just piling on HP and damage reduction.

I popped the lids off some CPUs (although I'm thinking about abandoning Devil's Canyon soon and moving onto CoffeeLake):

So... Gary Johnson? It seems like he would fit your criteria and then some.

Whoah! That is a lot! But more DRM means it's a better game, right?

And both points would be wrong since Gary Johnson isn't a Republican and doesn't smoke weed! He eats it...

Sure, 7 million paying member of the LP and this one guy is representative of every one of them. Wasn't that the result of a bet? I could be wrong but I think that's why he stripped.

So about that story of the guy who got stabbed because he looked like a Neo-Nazi...

I'm sure you would also find it amusing that the Neo-Nazis here accidentally pepper sprayed and punched some of their own, right?

Meh, honestly I think that the ACLU should have tweaked the wording a bit given recent events. This seems like a non-story on both sides (the ACLU, who I donate money to and like, ran an ad without thinking about all the implications and some people overreacted because it's the internet - nothing really noteworthy).
