So I recently had some computer troubles and found out that my main PCI x16 express slot was dead. I have inserted my video card in to the x8 slot.
What kind of performance hit could I expect form this?
For reference my GPU is an AMD 7970.
I would say negligable at most, depends how much overclocking you are doing and what PCI-E is it, 2 or 3?
edit: I found an article for you:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5458/the-radeon-hd-7970-reprise-pcie-bandwidth-overclocking-and-msaa
Basically, if you are using PCI-E v3 8x you will be fine, if you are on the older PCI-E 2.0 there will be a bit of a hit in some cases.

When are you in Tokyo? I'll be there a day or two before PAX. Drinks at Brew Dog Roppongi?At least I get to go to Tokyo tho, it's been on my list for ages (even though I'll spend 95% of my time there indoors at the summit...)
I am!Hm. I'm almost in a state where RingwoodGAF games should be doable again. Anyone interested?
Yeah, can't go. Clashes again with the OpenStack summit. At least I get to go to Tokyo tho, it's been on my list for ages (even though I'll spend 95% of my time there indoors at the summit...)

This the best video of E3 (Giant Bomb). It starts going pear shaped a few minutes in. You're just waiting for them to come to blows. These aren't journos, they're ex-Midway guys who are now executives at major developers. Can you spot who's going to wake up with regret tomorrow?

Meh. When was the SydneyGaf meetup? Have I missed it? Don't come in here enough. Anyway in Melbourne on the 8th August, the wife is at a conference on obesity and I'm meeting a mate from school I haven't seen in 25 years, so anyone wants to come for an afternoon Beer would be welcome. Anyway, if not where's good in Melbourne for an Arvo Beer? Staying at the Hilton in South Wharf wherever the fuck that is, suggestions for Beer sellers?
It was on the 6th.. yeah you totally missed it
this last section of Giant Bomb Giant Bomb live. oh jesus.

I actually took the day off for that deal. Now I'm having second thoughts and wondering if I should just get Yoshi and Kirby and hold off on PS4 for a while.
Well, I guess Nintendo's won this generation.Won't buy Yoshi though unless the Amiibo bundle is cheapish

just get Yoshi and Kirby
Kirby is a neat little game and the clay aesthetic is really cute. Yoshi looks adorable and I'm keen to play it even if it does end up being a little easy and simple like Kirby's Epic Yarn was.
I was put off Kirby when I saw how much of the game was spent staring at the Wii U controller screen instead of the TV screen.
I really love the look of the new Kirby game but I've heard that it wasn't great, and relies fairly heavily on multiplayer/ amiibos/ Wiiu controller. Any truth in that? Or should I go ahead and get it with Yoshi's epic yarn :3
Because we're doing it to non-anglophone foreigners and we're the richest country in the region.
What's the best place to buy a ps vita and what size of memory card should I get if I want to go digital?

It's just the super Mario series, most of which are readily available, not the original smash bros ones.Amiibos are 10 bucks too...I think that'll finally push me down the Amiibo rabbit hole.
Where do you live? I see kangaroos all the time these days, I'm not even near country
I saw a kangaroo out in the wild today.
It was just chilling and eating grass and stuff. It was surprisingly unafraid of me.

Near Caboolture.
We drove out to Lake Wivenhoe for the day and I saw it there.
I used to get woken up by kangaroos having sex outside my bedroom window.
Strayaaaaaa

That feel when you take the shrink wrap off a box set and realise you accidentally bought the DVD version and not the Blu Ray.
Game of Thrones ;_;
Shrink wrap is all ripped up now. I'm screwed aren't I?
Having worked in retail, nowadays you can return anything for any reason at any time (more or less) if you have a receipt and an explanation. You'll run into even less trouble (meaning less than zero, I guess) given you want to do a straight swap for something more expensive.Game of Thrones ;_;

Where I live I see koalas much more than kangaroos. I've even had one bashing its paws on the window at 1:30am (I thought the house was getting broken into - it was quite a surprise and relief to turn on the outside light and see a tattooed koala wearing a balaclava and brandishing a glock with its nose pressed up against the window pane).
I also hear them grunting like this at night all the time.
