If it's so easy as just adding in more ROPs, why didn't AMD do that when it realized the Vega wasn't as competitive with nVidia as it needed to be? What would stop them from offering a Vega 64 Ti or something and doubling the ROPs (to oddly enough, 64)? Sounds like that would be a good way to...
That chart to me looks like the result of globalism. Wasn't it in the 1970's that we manufacturing started to move overseas?
What would that look like? Who do we tax to fill "The Gap" and at what rate? How much additional tax revenue will that provide? How much do we need to fill "The...
Actually, and surprisingly, a nest egg of $500k could easily last somebody the rest of their life. Obviously, it depends on what you have the nest egg invested in and how much you take out.
If you have your nest egg invested in 75% Stocks/25% Bonds and take out 4% of your portfolio ($20k) the...
I agree you won't get there by just "saving" money in a bank. I specifically called out investing in the stock market over long periods of time. I recommend a low-fee total stock market fund to diversify your investments over basically the entire stock market.
Yes, that is reasonable. Being lucky is certainly needed to become a seriously wealthy, as in filthy rich. But diligently saving will get a lot of people to at least modestly wealthy (I think we agree on this).
Is being filthy rich the goal? For me it's not. Investing my money and letting...
True, the Present Value (PV) of those dollars would be worth less than the Future Value (FV). Actually, using a 3% rate of inflation the PV of the $644K would be $265K.
But, that was based on a static value investment to begin with. Most people disciplined enough to invest in a regular...
Not true at all. Investing a small sum regularly over time can lead to wealth. For instance, investing $300/mo in a mutual fund like Vanguard Total Stock market (historical return 9.72%) over the course of 30 years would yield a market value of $644,124. Edit: Which would be considered...
Yep, I did forget he would need to get some DDR4 RAM, and like the epsilon85 mentioned; it should be fast 3200Mhz RAM. This would potentially push the upgrade out of the OPs budget.
Why wouldn't you just get a Ryzen/B350 combo?
AMD Ryzen 3 1200 for $109.99

MSI B350M PRO-VH PLUS AM4 AMD for $64.99

Total: $175
You get all the modern features...
If I understand correctly, you want to know of a good, cheap motherboard that you can use for your i7 7700k, and you do want to overclock.
A good choice would be the ASRock Z270M Pro4. Link to New Egg below:

I chalk it up to the same reason that the far-left idolizes such dictator tyrants as Castro, Stalin and Che Guevara. That tells you a lot about the people you are dealing with.
Public funding would also add bias into the reporting. Your "customer" then becomes the government. I don't think we will ever get truly unbiased reporting, but we should strive to minimize bias. Some "news" sites (Huff Post and Breitbard for example) are extremely biased. Others, like WaPo...
But it is allowed, that is the current rules. The supreme court even ruled it constitutional. If the threatens (and does) take him money and go home; who would blame him? Do you think the democratic party wants to alienate their big donors? Do you think the alt-leftist progressive "eat the...
I agree. They should totally tell him (and other millionaire/billionairs) off and reject his money. Maybe you can send $5 or something to the Democratic party instead. I'm sure that will work out perfectly.
So, why should the billionaire donor continue funding the Democrat party which is villanizing him and people like him? Only a fool would. Then again, only a fool bites the hand that feeds.
I'm just saying why should this dude contineu to monetarily support a political party that makes him the enemy. There is wealth disparity in this country, but maybe it's a good idea not to make enemies of those you need?
It's his money, why should he continue to monetarily support a political party to villanizes him. I mean look at your signature "Eating the rich, and bleeding tiger blood". He should pull out and stop contributing to the Democrat party. Let people like you send in their $5 or $10; would that...
Good for him. Why should he keep monetarily supporting a political party that is villifying him? I hope you alt-left liberals continue to bite the hand that feeds; you'll have as much influence in America as you deserve. None.
Yep, looks like I was mis-understanding the word quirk. So with being corrected on the definition of quirk, I agree it is a quirk, in the sense that is is a peculiarity of the electoral college system (that a candidate could win an election without the popular vote).
That still leaves whether...
That's not broken. You might agrue it's outdated and unfair, and that we should change to a popular vote, but our electoral college system is working as intended and likely won't change.
What are the common sense gun laws that would have stopped the Las Vegas shooting or the more recent church shooting?
Honestly, the only common sense gun laws that I can think of to stop these mentally unbalanced (or conspiratory) shootings would be to ban and confiscate all semi-automatic...
How is this any different than when a Muslim terrorist uses a rental truck to run over pedistrians and bike riders, or when they blow up a subway or concert? All I hear after these events are calls for "thoughts and prayers".
I don't know what the OP was getting at, but obviously it was just an analogy. Pres. Trump doesn't talk, walk or act like a politician. He is insensitive and does things with no regard to how it will affect his re-election chances. It's why some love him. He would be really dangerous and...
I think it's reasonable to assume that she knew the questions that would be asked by Seth. But true as well that she could probably have "talked shop" as you say for a few minutes in a lightweight, friendly interview as this was.
I'm still reading the thread, but here is a good budget gamers build for $1k including Windows 10 64-bit in the price. There are trade-offs, but for $1k that's waht you're gonna get.

So does anyone know of any "real world' CPU tests? It seems like a lot of CPU tests are sanitized. In reality most gamers have some sort of internet program (Chrom, Firefox or Explorer) on in the background (with probably several tabs open) and anti-virus software open as well as several other...
I don't think you gain anything by going for the 1600x over the regular 1600 if you want to overclock - as both chips are overclockable. Buying an aftermarket cooler for the 1600 would be advisable if you want to overclock much.
I've noticed in a lot of gaming benchmarks the i5 8600k (6c/6t) and i7 7700k (4c/8t) are running neck and neck, with the 7700k usually edging out the 8600k. And both are faster than the i5 7600k (4c/4t). So I would say that yes, games benefit from hyperthreading.
OP, since you have a P68 based motherboard you could also try the i7-2600k. They go for a bit less on eBay (than the i7-3770k) and should definitley be a drop in upgrade for your mobo.
I would do a similar upgrade if my P68 motherboard was in good enough shape. Unfortunatlely I got one of the...
I think a GTX 1060 with 6GB of RAM would suit you well, especially if you are a little strapped for cash. It has a great price/performance balance.
As you realized with your 2GB GTX 960, don't skimp on the VRAM. I imagine you would still be pretty happy for another year or so if you had the...
I like this, though I wouldn't mind if Intel would release a 8C/8T i5 when they go to 8 cores. It's probably what I would upgrade to if given the option.
