Obviously, the 780 Ti is already overkill for Windows XP gaming FPS. I've got a living room set up I'm working on that's pretty nice. Sony 295 ES, 120 inch screeen, 4k 60hz. True 5.2.4 Atmos. In ceiling speakers with backer boxes. It's the real deal. It's not a dedicated home theater. It's just a …

My friend and I are building a number of computers for XP Lan Parties. Our assumption is, if we build it, they will come. We've got about four windows xp machines already built from spare parts and old rigs that vary from a 980x/780ti to a AMD643200/Ti4200. We're building eight dells to augment our …

And I can run all three systems at once, and I have enough keyboards and mice to control them all at the same time too. Although, I trying to control a mouse and keyboard with my feet is hard.

Not as clean as I would like, but hey the world may end any day now, so I'd better post while I have the chance. Haven't been on here in awhile, been super busy with work. I've been eyeballing Pentium 3 stuff on ebay. I had to downsize, and this room doubles as my office, so there's a white board …

Lol. Lots of funny posts. I drank a lot of beer last night. No Trans Am appeared. I passed out on the couch. I actually threw up when I tried to eat breakfast. Then I got a speech from my Dell about how I'm a bad father, I'm disgustingly fat, and things can't go on like this. And what can I say? …

So there I was, in line at Best Buy. Still emotionally reeling from the loss of Frys. Worried about the withering selection of Blu rays. I looked over and there it was. A Dell. The familiar case awakened sentimental feelings, past breaking through to the present, the black gray case, a symbol of …

Ya, that's pretty funny. Sold my 1080 Ti. And I thought it was overpriced when I bought it. CL - highest offer was 600 FB - Angry teenagers demanding justice Ebay - took an offer of 750, buyer had a good rating, If there was no crypto craze, I estimate that the street value of a 1080 Ti would be 275 …

I'm guessing my original post was too long. I've got a spare 1080 Ti. I bought it for $400. I might be able to sell it for over $800. Do you think we're at the peak? Should I sell now? Or will the madness continue? And I should wait to sell it for $1000?

So last September I saw 2080 Ti's going for a little less than 600 bucks on fleabay. And I thought no way. I'm gonna wait. Prices are going to get better. 3000s and 6000s are just around the corner. So I bought a 1080 Ti FTW3 for the third time for $400 (I change up graphics cards a lot) to hold me …

I built myself quite a nice little office/den space when we moved in to our new house back in 2014: I'm digging the the cooler master stacker case. 11 bays of glory. I have one myself. Super case.

tried different monitor settings. Set it the monitor to 27 inches, and the line went away. Also got 120hz working at 1080, so the zotac 750 zone accomplished all my goals. Total silence. 120 hz. Super Ultrawide works. Display port connection. Loving it.
