New system with Rift is
G-Sync is not just for help staying smooth and stutter free below your refresh rate, it allows you to play at high frame rates with no screen tearing. It's just generally a lot smoother experience, you'll see what I mean once you try it for yourself. Using my HDTV playing Dying Light at 60hz V-Sync I get little hiccups and stutters once in a while, but all that is smooth like butter when I switch to my G-Sync monitor.
You get this addon yet?
I wouldn't be able to post if I did.
Just snagged me one of these:

why u get a gaming laptop? anyway is that video card upgradeable down the line? cause there are some laptops u can upgrade the video card
Work related. I don't think it's upgradeable, but for what I need, it'll more than do.
I ended up paying $1800 for it, from Warehouse deals. The only sucky part is the display is 4k pentile (AMOLED), and not real 4k, but as long as it has the resolution it's not a problem for me.
so is Intel going to make any more CPU's that can be put on a 100 series motherboard?
Nah, Coffee Lake needs 300 series boards.
Building a gaming system at a system devoid of triple A games
What's that?
..meanwhile PUBG sits at 1 million concurrent users.. Plenty of content on PC, you're too stuck on bull like Spyro to notice
You play that game? I suck too much at fps to try it. After having a kill to death ratio of something like 1 to 15 in the Battlefield 1 open beta I figured I was better off sticking with CPY and single player tbh.
Building a gaming system whose most popular game right now has ps3 graphics. Building a system with 1000 hippie indie Andoird graphics games. Still playing AOE 2.
dont even mention graphics 30 fps man
Did you just try to say that PC has no triple A les?
My Asus x370 Prime the bed a few weeks ago, have the ASRock x370 TaiChi now, much better. ASUS tech support is , tried to get an RMA for the last 3 weeks to no avail.
Nice.
Seems expensive though.
When I bought my MSI Leopard Pro, it was $1,050. My requirements were full keyboard and 1080p or better. I never thought I would need that much power, but 1080p and full keyboard started at $695, so I went for the nicer processor and graphics, which at the time was the 950m. 960 was new.
Anyway, what really pissed me off was when I broke the screen, and was able to replace it for only $67. I'm thinking what a ripoff in price for the change from 1600 x 900 to 1920 x 1080. I'll bet the same applies with going to 4k.
I would have replaced it with a 4k if it had the right internal connector, but it didn't.
In retrospect, I went from 8 GB to 16 GB for $90, and added a 1 TB SSD for $330. Still, for that price, a 1 TB SSD would have been better I think.
Ouch.
That really sucks.
The Leopard configured the same way, it's about the same price I paid (It's $1652 with a 15.6" 4K display, 16GB, 256GB SSD, and without the 2TB HD. I paid $1800 with a 512GB PCIe SSD and a 2TB HDD), plus it weights about a pound more.
Basically it was between this and the Razer Blade, and the Blade is a lot more money...
At least the SSD is PCIe...
Is it the Samsung 960 pro?
I don't think it is. I was already in awe with SATA3 SSDs, tbh, this is just a plus. The difference of booting in 8 seconds vs 10 seconds won't really make much of a difference to me.
Computer is solid so far. Even the display is really nice. The other thing I like is that it'll run on integrated gfx until you fire off GPU intensive stuff (or you can select to launch apps with the NVidia), which MacBooks had for a long time, and it saves you battery.
The only downside so far has been removing all the bloatware, creepware (ie: Norton), and disabling Cortana, etc, which is standard procedure these days when buying a new machine.
Really amazed they were able to jam-pack a real 1060 chip on such a thin and light laptop.
I would've gotten a FHD version just for gaming, but we're working on some 4K stuff, so I needed the higher res.
lol tomorrows i3 going to kill today's i7 cpus lol
Tomorrow's i3 is basically today's i5.
I was looking at the new line of MSI laptops a few hours ago. they are well into the $3k and up for the top of the line.
