@e30bmw: It would be smart to wait until next year, but I want to play Fallout 4 hopefully at max settings so it's time to upgrade my old 560 ti. Nvidia's flagship pascal gpu will be a big jump in power compared to current flagship, but I'm willing to bet that the gimped ~$350 range card is 10-20 fps faster at 1080p than 970 or 390. So I should be fine with a current gen card for a while.

@travisrex: Did you previously have any problems or have you been able to play from the start? Also could you tell what OS you are using?

I have been thinking about buying a new video card and R9 390 and GTX 970 are the two cards at my price range. I will only be playing on 1080p so GTX 970 could be fine but if I want to play games with extremely high resolution textures and a lot of anti-aliasing, then the 8 gb of VRAM in R9 390 would be useful. Both of these cards perform quite equally on most games but R9 390 performs better on vram intensive games that go over 3.5 gb even on 1080p.

So here comes the important question. If you own a 300 series R9 Radeon card, do you have any driver problems right now? Searching the net I found a lot of posts about crashes and other driver problems from the time when R9 380/390/390X released but it's hard to find info about the current situation. Also it seems windows 10 might be part of the problem so also mention if you have any problems running on win 7.

I would like to buy a R9 390 as it's more powerful but I might be too scared about messy drivers so gtx 970 is always an option. Thanks for your input.

At least we now have GB East so there should be a constant flow of content during the move, right? Maybe?

People use molotovs in CS:GO all the time in both competitive and casual play. If you had watched the IEM tournament you would have seen it in use.

Definitely Ori. It looks like a game that I haven't played before while Hotline Miami 2 looks like the original game. Sometimes it's good that a game is like its predecessor but hotline miami 2 is a bit too much of the same for my liking.

I wonder what happens if that AdNauseam clicks an ad that installs a keylogger or some other malware to your pc. There are some malicious things on the internet that might escape your virus protections gaze due to being new.

You should start watching hearthstone streams to get better at the game. There is luck involved in hearthstone but still you see the same players getting to the legend rank every season while some might be stuck in rank 15 even when they own every legendary card. Once you get better at the game you understand that there are matches you can't win because you drew the wrong cards, but most of the time you win because you know how your opponent is going to play, what cards they might have and you counter every play they make with the right cards. Most of the time you lose because your opponent played better than you and changed their play style depending on the situation and cards.

My advice for getting rid of that "everything is based on luck" feeling is to play handlock deck. Warlock draws more cards with their heropower and sometimes have almost 10 cards in their hand. That's 1/3th of the whole 30 card deck so you have a lot of choices on how you should play your cards and there is a smaller chance you have to rely on luck and instead have to outsmart your opponent.

It is a very cool skin and if we look at what you get for that $25 price it's not that bad since there are Dota 2 item sets that cost like $35, and do those items let you play music for your teammates? I think not.

But still it's kind of crazy that a skin costs more than some full games.
