Finally. After 2 years of waiting, pulled the trigger on a new build. Starting with the most important component of a gaming rig:

Whew! For a minute I thought you were starting your worm composting again.... So will this make you jump any higher or faster? Asking for a friend.

Garda Murphy sees a little old lady walking down a Dublin street, dragging two plastic garbage bags. While he is watching her, he observes that there is a hole in one of the bags, and every once in a while a €20 note flies out of it onto the pavement. As she goes to pass him, the policeman stops her. “Excuse me ma’am, but did you know there are €20 notes falling out of that bag?” “Dear me!” says the little old lady. “I had better go back and see if I can still find some. Thanks for the warning officer.” “Well now, not so fast. How did you get all that money? Did you steal it?” “Oh, no,” says the little old lady. “You see me back garden backs up to the stadium parking area. After each hurling match or football game, a lot of fans come and pee in me hedges, right into me flower beds! So, I go and stand behind the bushes with a big set of hedge clippers, and say, ‘€20 or off it comes!'” “Fair play!” laughs the officer. “Well good luck. By the way, what’s in the other bag?” “Oh that,” the little old lady replies, “not all of them pay.”

NICE setup -put it next to the beer cooler!

An Irishman walks into a bar and asks for two beers. He then pulls a small green-skinned man out of his pocket and puts him on the counter. As he’s drinking one drink and the green man is drinking the other, an Englishman down the bar who has had too many drinks says, “Hey, what’s that little green thing down there?” The green man runs down the bar and gives the Englishman a raspberry, “SPLBLBLBLT!,” right in the face and runs back to the Irishman. The Englishman mops himself off and says to the Irishman, “Hey, what is that thing, anyway?” The Irishman replies, “Have some respect. He’s a leprechaun.” “Oh, all right.” the Englishman says sullenly. They all go back to drinking beer. An hour or so later, the Englishman is plastered. “Boy, that leprechaun sure is an ugly little bastard!” he says. The leprechaun runs down the bar and gives the Englishman a raspberry again, “SPLBLBLBLBT!” This time the Englishman is really mad! “Tell that leprechaun that if he does that again, I’ll Chop his willie right off, I will!” he shouts. “You can’t do that,” says the Irishman. “Leprechauns don’t have willies.” “How do they pee, then?” asks the Englishman.

Make sure that you update the firmware on that Samsung 980 series drive ASAP. Samsung just released a firmware update because alot of them were kicking the bucket really fast due to corrupt firmware. It primarily affects the 2TB versions. S.M.A.R.T. starts reporting integrity errors due to the bad firmware. Within a few months it will render the entire drive read-only which is non recoverable. You can update through Samsung Magician Software or from the standalone installer but the standalone installer needs to be put on a USB drive. Boot from the USB drive and select which drive you want to update. Let it update and restart your PC. I would update the firmware before installing windows "just in case" it corrupts the install. https://download.semiconductor.samsung.com/resources/software-resources/Samsung_Magician_installer_Official_7.2.1.980.zip Updated Bootable Firmware installer for the 980 Pro. https://semiconductor.samsung.com/resources/software-resources/Samsung_SSD_980_PRO_5B2QGXA7.iso

Newlyweds, Mick and Maura, were on their way to Dublin to spend a few days in the “big city” for their honeymoon. Maura, who was a shy country girl, was a bit embarrassed that people might see that they were honeymooners. So, when she and her husband pulled into the station and got off the train, Maura asked Mick if there was any way that they could make it appear that they had been married a while. Mick responded, “Sure now darling. You carry the suitcases!”

NICE start!! You'll be cheetah hopping with that GPU!!!

"Damn it Timmmy!" seems I say that alot... so, does new computer then mean we are going to be cursing you even more? bunny hopper!

F*cking Thaw Jonah!!! LOL

Thank you for your generous consideration! Perhaps for someone who would make better use of it?... I play on a 65" panel...if I understand the implication. Cool thing I learned is that a larger monitor doesn't put any more load on a gpu than a smaller one, but that resolution does, regardless of screen size. I only mention this because I learned it a few days ago when card shopping.

lol and the bank account pain begins but guess what i have for you? hint (34WQHD) pm me your address and i will trade it for 1 carrot cake!

it is my crack house i have to drive for 5 hours to go there

I love me some Micro Center, it's my Valhalla

I loaded the Samsung Magician software for it right after windows install and checked, its a freshie with the latest firmware. I also read some reviews about The motherboard bios taking multiple tries for updates to fix a slow boot issue but mine worked first try. The only issue I had is during windows install it didn't find any network devices and it got stuck there (common issue with win 10 and 11 with newer hardware) so I opend a cmd window and launched device manager and manually loaded the drivers. Ran ATTO on all the drives and throughput is exactly where its supposed to be, Gaming is as smooth as can be been at home this week and running everything I play. Very Happy with it.

Lol, so a couple are pretty cool and seem like what I think of when you say 'no-scope'. That weird thing of scoping in quick and releasing that seems to make a guaranteed kill. A couple are just hip firing into their back. If you pull off one on me I want to see my name in the video! So if you are going to continue this, do the zoom in and out thing real quick and get more legit no-scopes. You also don't need to charge in run & gun style with that sniper to do it. Hang back mid range and do this. You could even get a few more thaws to help your team while your practicing. But of course you will do what you want as always you stubborn shit! But if you take my advice your score may be better than 4 kills 2 thaws and 30 deaths each match.

i went to microcenter and got my mouse, keyboard, and a 32" LG ultragear 2K 165Hz monitor AMD 7950X and 7900 XTX 32Gig DDR5 6000 cl 30

The white inside the case really looks good the the lights hope you dust alot. If you do come to my house! HeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaW!

That is actually my fridge behind it...

Went to my artist with an idea and this is what he came up with!!! Love seeing the flat stencil come to life in the actual tattoo when all the shading and bells and whistles get added in!!! Stencil Finished 2 hours later!!!! Back side of upper arm, fucking tender spot!!!!

Noice!

Country folk tweaked on that meth, turbo jamming to some fiddle tunes.

Returned from the Dark Side, have we?

Great deal. Thanks for posting.

Other than being an unexpected place to be, that roof can kiss my ass. There's no advantage to being on it other than...

The clue is in his name

This is the updated version of MW2 that was releleased in November '22, usual modes of run & gun plus resurgence mode where you respawn if your team is still active, Infected where you have to survive til you're the last player alive and DMZ which is mission based and the entire map open, team of 3 against AI and up to 60 other people Come on in Jim... There's always room for one more!!

Yes i know you!!!

The things we did to amuse ourselves back in the day!

I live 45 minutes away from SF. Over the last 10 years I have done every thing I can to never have to go there at all, even though I have two rental properties out in the Sunset district there. We have sold one of them and will be getting rid of the other. SF has become such a disgusting and dangerous place to go. It is embarrassing almost to say I live in the same area as that. 15 years ago before I retired I was a regional engineer and over saw 5000 units of apartments alone in the city as part of my portfolio. Back then I could see the city slowly heading downhill. There policies have destroyed what once was a fun place to go. And now with that they have to have a poop map instead of cleaning up the policies that have allowed this all to happen that requires having this app
