  1. Another fantastic tune !!! From a great album. Highly recommend it for any of you budding guitarists !!! This is an album I never tire of hearing. Yes Album !! Vinyl is King !!!
  2. White Punks On Dope !!!! Yes I was one back in the late 70's !!!
  3. What Do You Want From Life ? Be sure to click on the show more to read the lyrics.
  4. Proud To Be An American !!!!
  5. Ok this is a X-Rated tune. So any lady members BEWARE ! Also check out the fantastic album cover. Got a corn cob up your ass !!!!
  6. Gonna have a bad apple in the bunch every now and then. I had the same experience with Asus and an Intel i7 2700k build. Read articles on the Asus and figured I would give it a shot. First board was doa and the second worked somewhat. This was a DAW build (music recording rig) and I had nothing but recording issues with the Asus as a DAW pc. Ended up building another DAW rig with a Gigabyte board (as I usually do) and all the issues went away. That Asus and Intel cpu are gathering dust. But everyone has their favorites. Dont get me started on PC cases !!!
  7. Like many others I quit playing for may many years. Wasnt until 2007 (around there), I started playing again and learning how to record multi-track. But , I still dont play as much as I should or want too. Sucks
  8. I always stick with Gigabyte motherboards. Been building pc's since the 80286 days ( early 80's). And in the 100 + pc's I have built. I never have issues with AMD cpu's, and Gigabyte motherboards. Out of those pc's maybe 10 have been Intel based. Had issues with a few of those Intel based builds. So I do nothing but AMD and Gigabyte. Use to only run, DFI Motherboards (Diamond Flower International). But they left the consumer market a few years after they released the "World Famous" LanParty Motherboards !! Still have a couple LanParty boards in boxes. Great boards !!! Shame they only sell industrial boards now. DFI was the company that started the motherboard craze of using colors and focused on both performance and aesthetics. Anyway, use Gigabyte no matter what CPU you choose.
  9. If anyone has an Nvidia RTX card (2060,2070,2080,etc.) I have a code to get a free copy of COD MW. But you have to run a video card verification app. Once it verifies you have a RTX (20 blah blah) then it will let you install. I preordered the game and got a free install via a rebate on my new GPU. PM me if your interested.
  10. Looks great !! 455 ? Not the stock block. Is it a 455SD or 455HO block ? Was big into Firebirds. Family had several in the 70's
  11. What a whiner !!!! You still make sound even with dead silence on !! IF YOU WOULD PICK YOUR EARS, INSTEAD OF YOUR NOSE, MAYBE YOU WILL HEAR US !!!
  12. I need to check that out. Love Quake 2, especially the mod with naked women !!!
  13. Probably not worth it for current games or older games. But new game development should benefit by the RTX.
  14. Spartacus !!!! You are on the jam list !!!
  15. Through out the years I have used several DAW's. Cubase, Pro-Tools, Reaper, Tracktion, Studio One and Waveform. I mainly use Waveform and Studio One now. As far as an easy to learn DAW, then Tracktion 7 is a good choice. Tracktion 7 is an older version of Waveform that is free. https://www.tracktion.com/products/t7-daw Presonus Studio One, which is a great DAW, is a little harder to navigate, but still user friendly. Reaper (i use sometimes) is also a good inexpensive DAW. Not as user friendly as the others, but the cost is good. As far as Mics go, you cant beat the old Shure SM57 and 58 workhorse mics. Plus you need an audio interface to get your music into the pc. Now with the Presonus interfaces you get a copy of the daw Studio One Lite which will do just fine. Like the Presonus 26C or 26 https://www.presonus.com/products/Studio-Series-USB-Interfaces . Inexpensive and good sound. So get a Presonus interface, one Shure SM57 and one Shure SM58, two mic cables and download Tracktion 7 or use the free version of Studio One that comes with the Presonus interface. And start messing around !!!
  16. My code is up for grabs too. Like fbi said, needs to be a Nvidia RTX series card.
  17. Thanks. I was trying to get a jam session together and have a few people come down (Street being one). But life threw some curve-balls at us the past few months. My father fell ill and passed and other health issues with other family members. Been a trying few months. I hope things have settled around here (knock on wood). But I am not holding my breath.
  18. Street !!!! You need to get off your ass and make the trip up here some day.
  19. Never mind on stutter issue. It was my browser. Got it fixed.
  20. Im on all instruments. Vocals done by me, and a few friends. Some of this stuff is old and pretty rough !!! Also let me know if the Soundcloud app stutters during playback. The player stutters on my end, but it could be my browser.
  21. You have to install a GPU test program to make sure your video card is part of the rebate (free COD MW). I prepaid for the new COD and just purchased a new video card. So.... I have a code too.
  22. Oops sorry just saw you exchanged it. I just put together a pc and used a 2080 in it and have been pleased with the card. I too was thinking about a Radeon card and saw there were issues. I got my crap at Microcenter and the salesman there said they have a alot of Radeon cards returned, because of stability issues.
  23. Did you follow proper installation protocol ? Remove old video drivers first, remove old card, install new card and then new drivers ? May try uninstalling current driver and reinstall them ? You overclocking the card or your motherboard ? Could be a bad card too. Could always send it back for a new one.
  24. How Fast !!!! I've driven 168 mph in my Z (ran out of room). Shit flies by quick at that speed. Especially being a few inches off the ground.
