Isn't that only a worry if you stick to using an integrated GPU (which aren't even ideal for demanding games to begin with)?

Getting 960 plus 1080p G-Sync monitor is very tempting to me instead going full ham for my new rig.
I want nice shiny spec but at same time my most wanted game is something like Divinity OS 2 and XCOM, so I might overdoing it if spending too much.
G-Sync can help me for action game once in blue moon.

Wait, who designed this? Such a lust for filler!

If Jawmuncher has the budget adding an SSD for the OS/apps it's definitely the better option. I use the popular Samsung EVO 840 120GB for the system/apps and the speed boost going to SSD is appreciable.
Just fyi that EVO model has a wear leveling quirk where older files written to the drive can drop to HDD read speeds. Hoping the EVO 850 has fixed this once and for all.

I'd say it won't reach that price for another 4~5 years, and I'm being generous.
Will settle for 200$ ish
Doubtful. Monk is a great dude, very humble and a really sweet guy.
So yeah, it's probably not Kojima. That dude isn't humble.
Still haven't gotten Elite. This might persuade me to, though.
Oh ofcourse you do. Why wouldn't you?
I hate you and all your fancy hardware. A Warthog is currently my dream peripheral other than an HTC Vive, Corsair K65 RGB and a Mionix Castor. Damn you.
And ofcourse I also need a 144Hz GSync monitor with 1440p on an IPS (or a low-blur VA) panel.
And for that I would also need to get a better GPU than the 780ti I'm currently runnin' with...
Atleast it looks like I'll be getting a job really soon, so all these things aren't a pipe dream much longer.

They will come up with some dumb name for it so they can continue charging an extra $100-$150 for it, NV-Sync?

What's the issue with Seagate? Should I fear for my HDD?

I'll get Dark Souls II (the newer version) when it's on sale for a good price since I never bought it the first time around
which means I'll probably never buy it

Argh. I entered a contest for Mad Max before the game came out, but I bought it a day after release anyways. Completely forgot until I got an e-mail today with a key, saying I won.

Yeah,
I did all of those. Maybe I'll have to listen to all the tapes about Eli and the kids as well.
a gaffer is going to be very happy from a modbot giveaway!

I'll probably end up doing that. I was going to try and trade it to someone for a SOMA key, but I figure that'd be scummy since I got this key for free.

I entered that giveaway for MGSV on the gaming side but bought it anyway...I didn't win
in the unlikely event I had won I would have just asked them to pick another winner

Could have been worse. When I was selecting the winners, I ran into banned GAF members TWICE.

The failure rates at a backup facility compared to WD drives speaks volumes. If it's running fine I wouldn't be too worried about it though, just keep regular backups as with any storage.

same thing happened with a MGSV giveaway someone did in here...the winner had been banned...a mod unbanned him long enough to claim his prize though
It's really weird that when we can upscale console games from 240p to 1080p and have them looking amazing, sharp and luscious, but can't do the same thing for 1080p->1440p signal.
Really really weird.

a wise man once said that if you have to ask yourself that question then the answer is almost always "No."
It's a pity WD doesn't offer an alternative to this. I desperately need it. I may even buy two, just in case the AUD falls even further and the price goes up.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
