You're not actually killing trees. In fact, the more paper we use, the more trees are planted:

“The claim that using wood somehow leads to forest loss is backwards and silly. Every time we use wood—every time we buy a two-by-four at a lumberyard or a ream of paper at an office supply store—we are in fact ordering up new trees for planting in forests.”

Maybe you should inform yourself a little:

Just be careful. You really shouldn't use a passively cooled videocard for gaming unless you have an extremely good airflow in your case. I ran a passively cooled card for a couple years, everything was fine in games until new games came out that really started to push the cards capabilities. This made my card overheat and die. Actually it died playing Armed Assault which was a quite demanding game when it came out.

With no fan on it, the card has no way of adapting to more demanding games and it WILL die from overheating sooner or later.

Fanless videocards are for HTPC's or for other less demanding tasks.

If it runs Full HD video over WiFi, then yes!

All I wanted from SupCom2 was more of the same. A Forged Alliance with a new campaign and maybe some new units. The game was already perfect, why change that?

xor2g · 5 days

Right. And my HTPC has an AMD E-350. Dual core. Running at 1.6 ghz.

Sometimes less is more.

There's a great way to achieve exactly what you want. Put a question mark at the end of your sentence. That makes most people believe that you are indeed asking a question, when you're really just making a statement.

I can relate. Just bought a Synology DiskStation 212.

At first you feel like THE MASTER OF THE NETS. Then you slowly start to forget it's even there, taking the convenience of it for granted.

Maybe I've just had bad luck with the matchmaker for the last 30-40 matches, but I keep getting put in matches with tiers 7-8-9-10 only. And at those tiers the KV3 plainly sucks imho. There's not many guns at those tiers that can't penetrate the 120mm of frontal armor reliably. Or the 130mm on the upgraded turret. Mine certainly doesn't bounce shots.

Yeah the new engine certainly makes it noticeably faster. But it's still sluggish and with a 32km/h top speed it's simply not a flanking tank. And at tiers 7-10 it needs to be able to flank with a gun that only penetrates 175mm.

The T29 is indeed awesome. The IS is "meh", too average to be fun, no strengths and no weaknesses, just all around "meh". KV3 is just crap. Horrible guns, awful matchmaking, useless armor at the tier it is playing against and it's slooow.

This is my first time using a computing PC. I have not browsed any webs before. Please tell me how to browse the intrawebs exploder.

Must be a problem with your computer too. devinlucifer never has problems with the website. At all.

That's a lot of downvotes without a single reply. Not a single reply. A. Single. Reply.

Please don't write anything in r/hardware again. Your "advice" will only hurt people who don't know any better. Quality>Quantity. This goes for PSU's as well...

Sometimes (quite often), a PSU from a reputable brand (like Seasonic) will work better in your system than a cheaper one that is rated to deliver more power. On paper.

redtracer · 6 days

SU-152 is shit with the regular guns. 175mm penetration does not cut it at that tier. I've reverted to the HE gun to at least do SOME damage.

The other tanks you mention, excel at flanking. They do not have problems penetrating even tier 10 tanks.

redtracer · 6 days

Boohoo. Now try driving a KV3. Same penetration and same matchmaking, and you're among the slowest tanks on the battlefield. You can only DREAM of flanking...And the armor is worthless at tiers 7-10.

Imagine their surprise when they're told those roofs must be painted black before winter starts, to lower the environmental impact from heating all those houses.

Which man, and why?

Can't connect to the website atm.

Gormogon · 8 days

You're assuming all PSU's are the same. Sometimes a good 500 watt PSU supplies more/better power than a cheap 700 watt.

Yeah that is an ancient joke.

That sounds bad. I've always used ASUS motherboards for my homebuilt PC's and never had to send one back or deal with their customer service. They seem to take any abuse I administer to them, my current one is 4 years old, been overclocked to hell and back, had umpteen different devices plugged into it, been in several different configurations. Not. a. single. problem. ASUS motherboards just seem to refuse to break.

That doesn't help you of course, and I'm upvoting this for the small chance someone at ASUS notices...A bad customer service is not acceptable no matter how good your products are. They should send someone over to Logitech to see how they handle customer service.

Yeah I stopped progressing down the russian medium line because I just love that little tank. That gun fires like a machine gun at close range. At longer ranges the aim time limits how fast you can fire, even with GLD, but it still fires very rapidly.

Too bad it doesn't have a gunner, it would be great having the snap shot skill on this tank.
