CIPWTTKT&GC v0X12 (v18): Makol can't Computer Very Good - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=B!N4RY;35173452]Why do people still have that idiot added on their Friend's list? I swear every time when a chat and him is mentioned in this thread, it's always about how he is whining about something stupid.[/QUOTE] Pretty obvious he has an alt, not gonna say any names though.

[QUOTE=Makol;35173287]damn I keep forgetting the 680 is midrange [editline]17th March 2012[/editline] wait is the 7970 midrange?[/QUOTE] 680 Is going to be the high end, but being on GK104, it was originally designed to be a 670. The 7970 is the 2nd to top card. 7990 in April or May will take top dog spot.

Unfortunately my wallet suffers in the process. I'm still extremely disappointed in AMD for mostly matching Nvidia's prices. To me, AMD GPU's are absolute king price to performance, now this is just saddening.

I wanna attempt to setup a small cluster when I move house, Ive heard about Beowulf for linux (and their site is dead) but what about Windows?

Why would you even want a Beowulf cluster? I doubt that you'd have any use for it.

How much do you think the 580 prices will drop when the 680 comes out?

[QUOTE=Brt5470;35173225]He had been messaging me on steam for like half an hour complaining about origin not letting him buy BF3, so I said I'd buy it on amazon, give him a key and he could paypal me the money. He then says, "Oh wait, I have an amazon account" right as I bought the key and sent it to him. So he also bought it. So I have a BF3 key sitting here.[/QUOTE] You're too damn kind. Or at least not stubborn enough.

[QUOTE=VistaPOWA;35173895]Why would you even want a Beowulf cluster? I doubt that you'd have any use for it.[/QUOTE] Experience purposes.

I've decided to not upgrade my system to Ivybridge, but instead wait for Haswell or the generation after that. Now I have 600€ that I have no idea on what to do with. (Saving it for later is an alternative) Any ideas?

[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;35173939]You're too damn kind. Or at least not stubborn enough.[/QUOTE] More so the latter. I was raised to be very generous and it's hard to not be some times I'm going to be a shitty parent. "HEY KIDS I BOUGHT YOU A FEW CARS"

Brt, you are my father.

Any suggestions on a cheap-ish card to upgrade my GTX 260 from? It has to be NVidya, there isn't a chance in hell I'm subjecting myself to Catalyst again.

What's your budget? A 460 or 560ti would be two good options.

£250 max.

[QUOTE=Wooops: 404;35174174]Brt, you are my father.[/QUOTE] He's like the dad I never had (except he's way younger than my mom and we bear no resemblance :v:)

[QUOTE=inconspicious;35174244]£250 max.[/QUOTE]Then a 560ti would be good choice. Or, if you could wait a little bit longer and let your budget increase by about 20£, a 570

[QUOTE=dije;35174518]Then a 560ti would be good choice. Or, if you could wait a little bit longer and let your budget increase by about 20£, a 570[/QUOTE] Seems good, I'll take note of that.

[10:03:58] Dorkslayz: Why are you downloading Visual C++? [10:04:10] jake wherlock: I am learning it (3 hours later) [13:08:48] jake wherlock: C++ is gay I warned him of this but he didn't believe me.

You don't learn C++, you live with C++ and then you divorce and move on.

[QUOTE=wingless;35173166]Not really. Why do you have to change your name in the first place? It's not like it changes very often. Limiting name changes just catches the stupid people who like to change their middle name every 3 days to their new weekly fucking boyfriend.[/QUOTE] I had a problem with my bothers friend getting on my Facebook and changing my name (Left windows set to not lock when coming back from screensaver...i don't do that anymore..plus i log out more and have lastpass set to make it need my lastpass password to login) also im pretty sure i fryed that damn dell that i was using as a server via ESD - i don't know how but it WAS really dusty and i blew a bit and yeah.... the thing refuses to POST - no beeps or anything... reset the cosmos battery and everything checked cables resented ram... nothing... - only thing i did was reapply paste and blow some dust out - i grounded myself...but damn... it was really old and im told that older stuff doesn't handle static very well at all... not sure WTF to do at this ponit... anything else i could do?

[QUOTE=nikomo;35175254]You don't learn C++, you live with C++ and then you divorce and move on.[/QUOTE] Hey! I actually like C++.

In my opinion: C# > C++

[QUOTE=MC3craze;35175988]In my opinion: C# > C++[/QUOTE] C#+ is the best.

I prefer fortran.

I can't code and you are making me sad

[QUOTE=altern;35176017]I can't code and you are making me sad[/QUOTE] You're fine, coding isn't for everyone.
