Having siblings is the best sometimes. My little brother just gifted me a GTX 960. Now time to replay DOOM on my PC

"Thanks bro, I'll have a blast playing Doom on medium."

That's rad, though.

Should I get a new CPU without getting a new motherboard? My CPU and Motherboard are each 6 years old...

Coming from a 650, this is a very big upgrade. I had a 610 prior for like 7 years.

If your motherboard is that old I'd replace it if you're getting a new CPU.

figure out what cpu you want
is your mobo compatible with this cpu

if y: just get the cpu
if n: upgrade the mobo too

don't let an old motherboard hold you back from getting the cpu you want though. they're not all that expensive in the grand scheme of PC parts

 

[Jintor]

i hope a ql for that cyberpunk bartending noir game is incoming as well as #fe and zero escape

 

[Lunar FC]

I didn't think that Spraygun War song was the worst thing ever. What is wrong with me? I'm disgusted with myself. >.<

Edit: Holy shite Flywrench's music is incredible.

I wouldn't need that big of an upgrade for CPU(Mostly play HotS/League on it~ And smaller games).

I love fobwashed.

Austin saying that the evil Goku wearing black is clearly someone's OC made me laugh because

Can you really blame him though? First the blue hair, now evil goku, super's really gone off in bad ways.

[Jothel]

3 more hours until i can go home and play zero time dilemma and probably fail my japanese exam on sunday

You'll be fine! Which one are you going for again? I'm shitting myself over N2 on Sunday... I'm confident until I do a practice test

Yeah, well I've got jizzmonger.

Deal with it.

 

[BTA]

I realized today I don't expect Austin on anything except an E3 segment next year and maybe a GOTY column. Bonus points for an Extra Life stream like Alexis does now. If he's on anything GBeast now until the end of the year I'd be shocked. He's starting a new site in a new place, he'll have no time for anything.

They should just bring back the bit they did in the first couple Beastcasts when they called Jeff to briefly talk about Skylanders. And I was going somewhere else with this idea originally, but after typing it now I just want Austin to talk about Skylanders.

Regardless, I'd think he'd be on the Beastcast again before the end of the year, but maybe not often?

n3. i did a practice test for kanji and grammar and did okay but listening is murder. Gonna practice listening for like 3 days straight starting tommorrow.

What are the chances that Jeff B. gets the open position on the east? I feel like they wouldn't have said they would have another hiring process if they already knew they would hire him unless the process is mandatory. They also had him on for the final day of E3, so maybe that was a way for Jeff G. to get an idea of what he's like? When they did the seat switching thing on Austin's last Beastcast it made me think that they were announcing Jeff as their new hire for a second, but they were just talking in the scope of the podcast itself.

I'm not familiar with CNET Gaming, but I have a feeling that if Jeff was offered the job it would be a similar situation to Austin's where it's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I could be wrong though.

Also, that could maybe mean that we get monthly DadCasts!

CNET is much bigger and more important for CBSi than GB, and Bakalar is basically the "gaming guy" over there. I think the chances are slim to none. He's basically much bigger than GB.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yeah there's no way he's switching. Cnet is order of magnitudes bigger than giantbomb.

Lol it's more likely that Vinny and Alex will be swallowed up by Jeff B and become his underlings.

Jeff B is like Jeff G, except more important.

Jeff Bakula leaving Cnet for GB makes less even sense than Danny leaving Gamespot for GB.

CNET and Gamespot are no videogames.com though.

I never realized CNET was so big. All I know them for is hosting a bunch of malware infested freeware lol

It helped me out a bunch when I was going to buy a new TV/AV receiver.

Jeff B is doing work at CNET.

 

[Tubobutts]

Sounds like you guys are saying old Jeff B is too good for Giant Bomb.

Honestly kinda?

Or at least moving to giantbomb would be a massive downgrade career wise as far as money and stability goes.

 

[hamchan]

The Beastcast doesn't have one rotating chair. It has three rotating chairs and Bakalar is the permanent member.

The B stands for Bakalar.

I mean... look at Dan.

Yeah they're pretty big. They're in the top 200 biggest websites.

 

[Patryn]

I've been out of things for a bit now (due to real life stuff).

Do we have any indication whether Beast will continue doing a weekly live stream now that Austin's not there?

 

[oti]

Brexit is consuming my life but now is the time TO TAKE BACK CONTROL

Watching Austin stream now.

Oh FFS Gundams?

 

[wild_fire987]

Hey! Giantbomb.com has cracked the top 4,500 globally and the top 1,500 in the US of A!!!

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/giantbomb.com


Much more popular than nuke.com: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/nuke.com


And way more popular than videogames.com: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/videogames.com

edit: I wonder if that 20 million drop in videogames.com rank over the past 3 months is actually anywhere near accurate... It's interesting though...

 

[Antiwhippy]

Isn't alexa pretty unreliable because it mostly takes info from people who installed their toolbars or something?

 

[derFeef]

Yesterday I tried the GB channel on Plex on my Xbox One. It's not working, I only get the "Jeff Error" video. Works on PC though. Any ideas? API key is set and everything.

 

[wild_fire987]

Oh yeah, looking around it seems like you're correct... Which would make sense as to why CNET would be pretty high on the list, because I envision that people visiting CNET.com are more likely to install a toolbar on Internet Explorer
