Blizzard is using multiverse stuff as their get out of jail free -card on this. The past Draenor in which Garrosh goes to cause all this mess isn't the past Draenor of the Azeroth that's in WoW. The just attack WoW Azeroth because Garrosh wants revenge.

Basically they don't just have time travel to draw new expansions from but infinite universes, too. There's always a lighthouse.

Yeah, but I suspect this time line will spill over into the other. You will have some NPCs jumping lines.

Is there a chunk missing from the pc beast part 2 archive? It starts from where they are looking for the heatsink, was there anything before that on the live stream?

There was, but the audio sync was awful. I they cut anyting, that was probably the reason.

This demo disc is the most 90s thing I've seen in a while, wow.

They haven't even gotten to a game, yet, and this video is already a classic.

Edit: Go-uth? OH NO YOU DIDN'T, DAN

Well, that blows.
I wish they'd just include it anyway, if I can't stand it being out of sync, I'd just jump ahead. But now I don't even have that option.

Boo I say.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I'm always amused when english speakers try to pronounce "Ä, Ö or Ü". Jeff once read one of my questions on GB and it was pretty hilarious (at least to me)

You can do it, Vinny! Unless it's only a fan and no heatsink or something.

So I actually went and bought the original I7 had I wanted. Micro Center had it on sale for like $100 bucks off. What am I going to do with that Enterprise Level
nightmare
chip? I'll probably wind up actually buying it for myself and replacing my home workstation with it, since it's actually pretty beefy. Just not what I ever wanted for the work machine. Not sure yet. Just so glad to be able to play games again.

Will hopefully do one more video about it next week.

P.S. Actual build time with proper parts was like 15 minutes, like it should be.

Ah so you went the extra mile, awesome. It'll be good to see you guys play some of these games at decent framerates again.

I hope we see that video sooner rather than later!

This is a good time to have a PC... again.

There's an RPG renaissance, a Japanese PC port renaissance (x2), an indie game overrun, and a wave of horrible scam-games being released. Plenty of stuff to cover and enjoy.

I feel like this gets a bit weird at some point, so it'll probably be the last I mention it, but if a video is on the upcoming list (e.g. the D4 quicklook) and it's not a live stream, chances are it already exists on the server. I'm not gonna post instructions again, but if you can't wait to see something, it is fairly trivial for a premium member to figure out the url.

Though I'm sure they're aware of this (I think they even used to do this in the past for some videos), gb could easily limit the guessability of their urls by adding a random word or number to the file name.

They had to do this during the P4 Endurance Run because everyone was posting URLs for episodes the second they hit the server.

Is "we forgot the heat sink" the start of the stream or was some cut from the front? I don't remember seeing that gif of the cpu going in on the video.

They do this with premium stuff. I guess needing to block access to regular stuff is an edge case.
 
Micro Center always has amazing in store CPU and motherboard deals. It's frustrating that the closest one to where I live is 3 hours away.

Seriously, MicroCenter is the best. I only buy things from there at this point. Maybe its because I work right down the street from one, maybe its because I have a reseller's licenese and don't pay tax on it, or maybe its just because their prices are the same as Amazon's usually and I can pick them up right then and there instead of waiting two days

I was going to order some 970's from Amazon, then I remember I could just drive to the store on my lunch break instead. I really love them!

It wouldn't be a World of Warcraft video without Brad commenting about how weird the game is now, being blown away by features that are years old and reminiscing on the 'good old days' of Wow.

Not bashing Brad I just think his viewpoint shows how fluid and ever changing MMOs are.
