    Perhaps my 7850 is starting to give up. Or it's overheating. No matter, I'm getting a new GPU soon anyways.

    This happened to me, but I WAS THE ONE WHO UPLOADED THE VIDEO, first it was blocked in Germany, then the UK (WHAT?), then some other country that I can't remember, at first I didn't care, but annoyingly the video blew up and is still one of my most popular video's to date, if it wasn't blocked because of the song, I'm sure it would of nearly doubled in views -.-

    I know that, but you can never have too many GPUs. I plan on someday building another full tower with half decent specs and currently the best GPU I have that I could use for it is a 6790 that needs new fans and two 6 pins to even run it.

    Also I was once promised a free 270x. The person never fulfilled that promise, leaving a hole in my heart that only a 7850 can fill.

    Oh, no. It's going to be retired and go into my collection as my first GPU. It's served me long and well and isn't even close to dead yet, it just hiccups every now and again. It's strange, this GPU and me have seen a lot together. It's seen 3 motherboards and two processors and it's allowed me to keep going and play amazing games at beautiful settings even when the going became impossible for me. I love it and all of it's bottom-basement, sub-base model, 1 GB of VRAM performance.

    Did I just get sentimental about a piece of computer hardware?

    I understand. My old P4P8X motherboard went missing along with my 3.2GHz HT P4 in it. I still feel like crying sometimes..

    I have been browsing the forums for a while now, and came across some very old and useless threads. Shouldn't those be removed?

    I think I realized today that it's not very difficult to come up with fancy names for fairly ordinary things and thereby make yourself sound smart. For example, anyone who knows anything about cars knows the tendency of megabucks to invade and ruin any racing. This is not an exotic concept... but by calling it "the Turbopanzer effect" (after what happened to Can-Am) it sounds like one. In the same vein, that little "anything not permitted is prohibited" line in racing rulebooks could easily be called "the Yunick clause".

    I just looked up that motherboard. It's kinda strange, I can see why it was special. And those HT P4's are a little hard to come by now.

    Wow, turns out there are actual Far Lands in Minecraft Pocket Edition that start at the same coordinates that the far lands started at in old PC Minecraft.

    Yeah, I don't play it very much anymore either. But right now, I'm bored and on a plane with nothing but my phone, so I'm messing around with MCPE mods.

    Now that I'm looking it up, it's obviously been discovered already, but it was still pretty cool to find.
