Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Re: bought, sweet gaming laptop! update! Bought a new toy

So been looking at building a new computer for 4k gaming, but it was just too expensive.. then I saw benchmarks showing that my little FX 8350 does very well in 4k gaming(due to it relying more on GPU instead of CPU)
So long story short I forked out $700 (Canadian) and bought this bad boy


But it doesn't fit in my case by 2cm!!!! So when I get home taking some tin snips to modify my case a bit lol

Re: bought, sweet gaming laptop! update! Bought a new toy

Hahaha I hear ya. I even have a little plastic army man holding up the card because it's soo heavy
 
Re: bought, sweet gaming laptop! update! Bought a new toy

Lol I don't think I ever had a card that heavy.
I got it in, had to cut the first 2 storage bays out and it slipped right in, this thing is awesome I never had such a strong GPU, play all my games maxed out, AA and all and every game is smooth as butter, Witcher 3, the new tomb raider,doom,project cars. I want to start playing tomb raider but almost beat the newest expansion of Witcher 3 so should get that done.

A cool feature of the cards is it has led lighting and you can control the colours, can pick from millions of colors, I'll try to get some pics when I got time.

Re: New laptop, new computer parts, getting pretty silly

What case is that? We've been looking for a new board. Probably wait until the next AMD's come out.

FX chips = :th_beatdeadhorse:
 
Re: New laptop, new computer parts, getting pretty silly

Zalman z9+, nothing fancy really.
I was going to wait for the new amd, but after seeing their benchmarks were just as good as Intel broadwell cpu's(one generation behind) I decided to jump to Intel latest cpu's.
