  1. Helping a friend buy prebuilt $1500 gaming PC

    I see the Veteran's Day promotion. But maybe he can wait until BF. 8400/1080 will get him 4k gaming at high (not ultra) settings? Any reason to look at a Ryzen instead? Thanks for the input guys!
  2. Helping a friend buy prebuilt $1500 gaming PC

    My friend is buying a new gaming PC, but he isn't one to build things. I figure cyberpower is a good site to buy prebuilt? He want's to stay under $1500 if possible, but I'm not sure he can and meet his wants: 1. 4k-capable video card and support up to 3 monitors (4k gaming on one monitor...

  4. Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 470 or RX 460?

    I've had my MSI Gaming X 470 for a few days now, but I don't have any intensive games to test it with. :(
  5. Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 470 or RX 460?

    I just got the 4GB version of this card from Jet for $172. I'm replacing a 7850 and pairing it with an i3 6100. Hope it's good for 1080p for a couple years. :)
  6. I appear to have lost 10 LBS the easy way

    It's the first thing I tell people that ask me for diet advice (I lost over 100lbs in the last few years, so people ask me about weight loss a lot). I ask them if they drink soda/bottled fruit juice/beer and tell them to chill out if not eliminate that at least for a couple of months. Good on...
  7. So where do I begin?

    I used to weigh over 300lbs and lost ~100lbs by adopting a paleo diet and lifting weights. The average 'powerlifting' split, squat/bench/deadlift MWF plus accessories. While there is undoubtedly a synergistic relationship with diet and exercise, I think the diet change accounts the vast majority...
  8. Vegan Low Carb options? Update: Fresh fruit, Veg, and Beans solved the problem!

    You should eat more fat. Try some vegan fat bombs. Or try not being a vegan, ha. Anyway you need an energy source, and if you are low carb, you shouldn't also be low fat unless you want to wither and die slowly.
  9. KIAman's form checks

    Looks like you have some problem with thoracic mobility and shoulder internal rotation. Edit: check this video out at ~22:20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs_Ej32IYgo
  10. Form check please

    Go full depth and see how your SI joints/knees/hips/back feel during/after.
  11. Form check please

    Bracing like you are going to take a punch in the gut? Braced like your obliques are sore the next day after a squat workout? Do you have any discomfort in the hips or lower back when/after you squat? Your wink is perfectly fine, btw.
  12. I want to be more flexible - what do I do, and how do I do it?

    I generally don't drink the crossfit kool-aid, but you might want to check out KellyStarrett's channel. Example hamstring video on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZB-mQB_dpw
  13. Form check please

    I think everything looks great TBH. Only thing I would check is if you are maintaining a braced core throughout the lift. Also, are you going all the way down? Are you stopping yourself artificially or are you hitting the end of some range of motion (knees/hips/hamstrings/quads/etc) at that...
  14. Hip joint pain from squats...why? (NEW video added)

    OP, there are an infinite (seemingly) number of squat gurus on the youtubes. Just peruse some videos from knowledgeable and/or strong guys and try some of their tips/suggestions out. The guys I've gone back to are Kelly Starrett and Alan Thrall. But, ymmv.
  15. Form check please

    I think the canonical reason is that the pad prevents you from positioning the bar correctly on your back. And at heavy enough weights, the pad gets squashed. So as you progress through a workout, the bar will feel different as heavier sets deform the pad. But unless you are working with 225 or...
  16. Hip joint pain from squats...why? (NEW video added)

    He can do both. The runners are awful for squats, even with good ankle mobility. Edit: OP, if you are afraid of becoming dependent on a raised heel for weighted squat and can't work on ankle/calf/knee/hip mobility at the same time, at the very least invest in a good pair of 'minimal' shoes...
  17. Hip joint pain from squats...why? (NEW video added)

    Get some squat shoes. Your feet are all over the place in those runners. Try looking at the baseboard through the entire lift (your head position is too 'up' and you are hyperextending your neck a bit IMO). Work on your breathing: really get a full stomach of air for each rep, and hold it while...
  18. Quick diet tips?

    If you feel bloated a lot you might want to try experimenting with a low-FODMaP diet. In general I tell people to eat a lot more fat (good fat = animal sources, coconut oil, red palm oil, macadamia/olive), and a lot less carbs (zero sugar) for a couple of months and see how they feel. Talk to...
  19. Form check please

    Looks very good. Lose the tampon though (that's what meatheads like myself call the bar pad :P). I don't think you are too extended, you want some back extension at the start. But that means you are getting slight wink at the bottom. Try some RDL training to lengthen your hammys. Also...
  20. XFX Radeon R9 380 4GB XXX OC Retail......$169.99 ar!!

    Wow thanks for the info and opinions guys! One thing about the 280X, how much of a downside is 3GB for 1080p gaming? Thanks again :)
  21. XFX Radeon R9 380 4GB XXX OC Retail......$169.99 ar!!

    For 1080p gaming, is the (now $30) price difference enough to ignore the R9 380x? And I assume the GTX 960 isn't worth considering at the moment? I'm coming from a HD7850 and will be pairing the GPU with an i5-6400 hopefully OC'd on a 'Sky OC' asrock mobo. Thanks in advance :) EDIT: general...

    Anyone played Kerbal Space Program?
  23. 2013 Steam Holiday Sale! SALE IS OVER

    G+K and BNW are vast improvements over vanilla. They make CivV what it should have been from release. IMO, of course.

  28. R290X Crossfire V NVDA's SLI 780s/Titans from [H]

    I would imagine that a temperature increase from the rest of the components on the test bench is possible, and would cause a higher ambient temperature in the area surrounding the video cards. In a closed case with good airflow, ideally (theoretically?) you are bringing in fresh cool air...

    Just curious... (from http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18551534) The blurry text is clearly "NDA Std" and "NDA OC", imo. Why would you need to blur "NDA"?

  32. Military FPS game.

    Rising Storm is on sale on steam. Never played it or the RO franchise at all, but it's got a nice metascore, and the strategyinformer review was positive.

    Is rogue legacy much better with a gamepad than with mouse/kb?
  34. THQ Humble Bundle

    I wonder, would people who paid less than the average get new games added to the bundle also? I paid over the average, but I'm curious. Amazing deal this bundle.
  35. THQ Humble Bundle, big titles like Saints Row 3 and Darksiders for cheap

    Huge backlog, like many of you. But the only one of these titles I own is Metro (which is in my backlog), so I can't, in good conscience, pass this up. May Gabe have mercy on my soul.
  36. 2012 Steam Autumn Sale: DEAD! Holiday sale starts Dec 20th!

    Thanks KaOTiK and LessThanDan. Since the Winter sale is so close, I'll pass on everything else I was going to buy, including the Batman games and Alan Wake and hope they come up for sale in a month. I'm sure Skyrim and Chivalry (only $15 at gmg with GMG25-G4VDR-0ZL4Q, woot) will keep me busy...
  37. 2012 Steam Autumn Sale: DEAD! Holiday sale starts Dec 20th!

    Was going to pass on Chivalry, but then a friend went and bought it without consulting me, so now I have to buy it for $17 instead of $13. Sigh. Is there going to be a winter sale? Edit: Also, Alan Wake franchise for $10, yes or no?
  38. 2012 Steam Autumn Sale: DEAD! Holiday sale starts Dec 20th!

    Oh no doubt. I've loved the ES games since Daggerfall. But my sense of cost has been perverted by Steam sales. Anything over $5 for a game has me second guessing myself. But I had set an arbitrary threshold of $20 for Skyrim, and this is close enough, so Merry Christmas to me. :) I might even...
  39. 2012 Steam Autumn Sale: DEAD! Holiday sale starts Dec 20th!

    I can't fight this feeling anymore. Going to finally buy Skyrim for $22.50 at gmg. It hurts to spend that much on a game, it hurts in my bones. This is what Steam sales have done to me. I also picked up the Magic: The Gathering game for $5, and am going to get both Batman games and the Civ V...
