GraveYard Shift BS

Reminds me of a funny story involving my old iPhone 5, some nice software called "LogMeIn", and one of my cats (which one?) poopin' on the laundry room floor.

I plugged the iPhone into an extension cord strung across the laundry room so it wouldn't lose power. I installed LogMeIn on the phone, which allows for motion detection on the camera, and taped the whole thing to the window sill at the far end of the laundry room.

It was damned ugly, but it did work! Your setup is MUCH nicer though.

 

In for 4 of 4. FRIDAY YES!! Got some honey doos to catch up on. And some maintenance on the vehicles...

 

Ive built somewhere in the neighborhood of prob 30 or so since 1996. Mostly high end gamers for customers, a few nice ones for myself.
Still somewhat of an avid gamer at 50. Bf 1,2,3,4.
Some black ops offline and ofcourse my sim racing.
Using my current rig listed in the link along with an Asus G73jh to run a 24 track and 12 track DAW for recording now that im getting back into music again.

I bet that's a screamer! I didn't even think of doing RAID 0 with 2 SSD's with my latest, but I was trying to stay within SOME kind of budget.

 

speaking of which... didn't you have a video card laying around we were discussing awhile back... a pascal one iirc?

 

By the way, 50 is WAY too old to be wasting your time gaming.

At least, that's what my wife keeps telling ME...

 

This one here

 

The 1080's in sli and the evo's in raid 0 have been great for what I use it for. I probably could have even stayed with the 770 superclocked cards for a couple more years but bf1 really taxed the shit out of it and brought them to thier knees.

 

2x evga 770 superclocked cards. They were replaced by my 1080's.

 

now I'm shopping again But I am going on a looong time on my newest build with no graphics card but I haven't attempte to game on it so no real need. My friend is trying to get me into a couple games so gotta search around.

 

I dont know how much you need for gaming but I still have these 2 cards. Your welcome to try them for a while to see if they suit your needs.

 

I'm sure they'd be more than enough. I plan on playing a golf game and really wanting to play Just Cause 3, but have been waiting til I get a graphics card. What would you want for them?

 

So... I've been looking for a new game, but due to my screwy night-shift schedule I don't have anyone to join me.

What are you kids playing?

 

solitaire... on my phone is my go to time killer

But I've been playing a lot of "the golf club 2" with my friend and enjoy it. and like above, I really want to play Just cause 3. But I haven't played many console or pc games in a long time. couldn't even tell you what the new ones are

 

Funny, once I could play games unlimited with no money involved, I lost the interest. Something about dropping a quarter and seeing how long you could own the machine was appealing to me.

 

World of Tanks was my go-to for while, but the buddy I played that with works an opposite shift.

Other than that I've been replaying "Half-Life 2", it's been a while for that one and I really enjoy the story line.

 

Do you have room for sli on your board?
My buddy sold his pair of 770sc on ebay last year for $400. Id take $275 for both cards minus the sli connector. I used it on my new setup. All boxed up with some extra power connectors, ready to ship.

2x 770's will smoke a Titan on the charts. And standard Titans were going for a grand new.

 

Oh, and the Hotties that hung around the arcade was nice, too.
