typically, the reference models can do the speeds the OC models can, assuming you've got good airflow. Might be a bit louder since your fans might go faster.

Sadly $1100 is far too much to upgrade from a 980, but i'm still interested in what it can do. Maybe an 1180 ;)

If you're going to be mucking about with cooling blocks, you might as well go whole hog and use water.

Well my building got wired for fiber and I got a good bundle price locked in for the next 24 months. No more sketchy alternate means for me, i'm watching the rest of the season in HD :)

TSN (the broadcaster for F1 in canada) is mercifully in the standard TV package in canada so I didnt need to go for the best of the best.

Just "the next one" to me.

Probably not worth upgrading from 900 series unless you just have a lot of $$$ because the boost won't be all that big. I probably won't move from my 980 until 2017 or 18

PAX videos are kind of the worst, mostly because PAX doesn't have the timeliness the guys usually spoil us with.

Unarchived did the quick and dirty recording of the stream at least :)

Nope, nowhere to rent them from except maybe PS Now, which isnt really the same thing. (Canada = no Gamefly)

I haven't had the drive to actually put in the time get good at an FPS since Quake, but I feel like the "damage" CoD did to the genre is overblown.

For me I think i'd be quicker to point at non-party voice chat as the thing which made it less fun.

Smurfing in LoL is the bloody worst because someone'll just start jobbing you to farm. They won't win the match till they killed each of you enough times to max their XP.

Not a thing in team queue cause you can forfeit if everyone agrees, but its the worst when you got stubborn randos in solo queue.

Write in: Vapers who want to 'educate' you on how it doesnt have tar in it and you just want them to stop huffing that stuff in your face.

But of the two, drunks are much worse to deal with.

They seem to be real serious about gathering feedback from this demo, which makes me optimistic that they are really using it.

We'll see how much changes in the beta phase I suppose.
