It is not too bad, juat takes time.

So... I might have something that is holding me to 60 fps, not sure what it is yet. Ill have to check all video settings, and probably need to oc gpu.

I think I noticed the same weird thing playing at the PTR, didn't bother to try fixing it since I'm not playing the game but I checked now and I'm hitting 160~ at Elwynn forest. Can't login at higher level characters since my account isn't activated but it's running as it should.

My fps is tunning a bit under the radar myself, not too sure about ms though. I hard heard some people complaining about it though.

I finally finshed getting everything like I like it. I now just need to find a good black custom UI when someone makes one. I hate having a white windows bar.

Edit: My pair of Koss Sportapros have ended up breaking, I am going to see if I can get them to replace them. I heard Koss has a very good warranty system.

Let's say I have this friend who is the manager of a retail store.
This friend has let it be known that they don't even ask for receits in their store anymore, they just have a box where they switch straight off, barely trying to find replacement parts first.

Apparently Windows has put a MBR on my storage drive. No idea why, or how, because I have never tried to boot off it, and have not installed Windows while the drive was installed. It now thinks that this drive needs to be backed up in the weekly backup because it is a "system drive". Of course, this fails, because this means the system backup tries to write a terabyte of data instead of the incremental update for just the 128GB Crucial M4, and fails.

Any ideas how to fix this? Will Windows break if I simply delete the two files in the root of the drive (Windows is only on my M4)? Will this stop Windows Backup thinking my storage drive needs backing up (well, technically it does, but not in the same backup as my OS )?

Should I just get my shit off that drive and format it?

Yeah, im waiting for them to email or contact me, I have registered my headphones. Im really missing them, I would rather wear them than my more expensive(34$) Soundmagic e30.

So it is on another drive besides the one that you installed Windows on?

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

Yes.

And if I want to choose the locations that need to be backed up, it thinks this drive is a system drive.

[apepi]

Yes.

Huh..thats odd. What was on that hard drive before that? Do you have two MBRs? Did that disk have an OS on it before that?

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

It was a new drive that I cloned the old storage drive to when it started making noises like a broken car transmission. There was no OS on it.

For you guys with Win10:
Can you check whether you can get a start screen rather than a start menu?

For you guys with Win10:

Yeah, there's a button you can turn on to make a start screen as opposed to menu.

Thanks, all!


Also, why the HECK is the i5 6600K behind the i5 5657C in like, all the game-tests? It's clocked wayy lower.

- - - Updated - - -

So apparently the 128 MB on-die eDRAM can be used as L4 cache with a discrete card and thus makes it cream the i5 4690K and i5 6600K.
Meaning, don't recommend the Skylake CPUs for gamers, recommend broadwell?
Wow.
Sweclockers is currently trying to get ahold of an i7 5775C to verify its performance in comparison to the i7 6700K.

What the hell is with the prices on these things? Looking at dustinhome, prices put the 6600k 1000 NOK above the previous stuff last I looked...

So question, I had one of my games(HotS) on my other hard drive. It is working fine and everything...but it has no icon...it is just blank, how can I fix that?

Right-click, properties, change icon..?

[Remilia]

Yeah, think I'm just going to forgo another generation of CPU, wheeeee.

[Artorius]

LGA 1155 here :3

[Remilia]

Yeah, still 2600 here.

In the mean time I want this.

2500K still going strong. I guess I'm hoping that Zen isn't a flop.

[Drunkenvalley]

I'm more than ever contemplating X99 now. I thought Skylake was supposed to be the big bang of new CPUs, but... eh...?
