  1. Forbes Benchmarks Tied or slightly slower in all tests(except for synthetics, which theoretically shows bad optimization), except for Tomb Raider, where the 480 got beaten by 20%. Thanks, I'll take a look at that case!
  2. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Pentium G4400 3.3GHz Dual-Core Processor ($64.99 @ Newegg) Motherboard: ASRock H110M-ITX/ac Mini ITX LGA1151 Motherboard ($69.98 @ Newegg) Memory: Crucial 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($33.99 @ Amazon) Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon RX 460 4GB WINDFORCE OC Video Card ($134.98 @ Newegg) Case: Fractal Design Define Nano S Mini ITX Desktop Case ($69.99 @ Amazon) Power Supply: Silverstone 300W 80+ Bronze Certified SFX Power Supply ($49.99 @ Amazon) Total: $423.92 I'm trying to keep this sub $500 without an OS or HDD. Mini ITX/HTPC case is needed, and so is WiFi. This build is for a cousin. Could I get some help(not great at budget builds)?
  3. If he was building a hackintosh, would you recommend the PCIe SSDs? Also, have you seen the MX300s? Great GB/$, but horrible speed(actually noticeable real world).
  4. Well yeah, but again, I have seen a huge difference in boot speeds(and transfer speeds)between Apple's PCIe stuff and Apple's SATA 6 stuff, and when they jumped to PCIe 3 from PCIe 2.
  5. Replace the 970 with a 1060, as it's faster and cheaper. Then replace the PSU for an EVGA 550W GS 80+ Gold PSU(or one of the SIlverStone Strider 450W PSUs, at 80+ Gold you really can't get a bad PSU because the electrical components inside are very high end), as it's much more reliable and efficient. Also ask the friend what he wants in terms of cases, as at about $10 above your case price point, the Fractal Design Define S and NZXT S340 or H440 are amazing options. Also if he doesn't plan on overclocking, you don't need the CPU cooler, and can downgrade to an H170 motherboard and 6600.I would further recommend an SSD(for a boot drive), and of them I recommend 5 SSD lines. 850 EVO(cheap, fast storage) 850 PRO(2x as reliable as the EVO, but quite a bit more expensive) 950 PRO(more expensive, even faster, futureproof) Crucial MX200(pretty cheap, more reliable than 850 EVO, but slower/same speed as the EVO, less so than 850 PRO) Crucial BX200(cheaper than MX200, about as reliable as an 850 EVO, same speed as an EVO) I recommend a 120-250GB SSD so that booting is fast.
  6. Does the White Dart 1.0.5 work in 1.1.3 or is there an update in the works?
  7. Hate to hijack this. New classic TGAI tournament is up, modern, standard restrictions.
  8. I'll need some new fighters for other fights.
  9. How much did the Quaesitor weigh? I think it was like 33 tons, which is a heavier subcapital. All you would need are some fighters.
  10. I'll fight you in a sub-capital fight if you want. 200 tons, 7 ships?
  11. No, the missile fins were a bit clipped into the cargo bay. I did do personal testing as well, and all planes could easily self destruct by pulling sharp turns toward missiles that they released.
  12. I noticed that it happens a lot on clipped planes, as the Raptor 2 did that as well. Thatnks for the congrats, but I didn't deserve that win. I got lucky with my competition mode rollls(random mind you), and I think the Dorito has trouble sub 5 km.
  13. I honestly don't know what happened there... Maybe it pulled a turn that was too tight.
  14. And now, let the Standard 2 vs. 2 AlphaTourney 4 BEGIN(as in submissions)! Rules -No mods. (Except for BDarmory) -Fights are 2v2(of the same plane, so 2 of plane A and 2 of plane B) -Fights are best of 3, finals are Bo5 -The last flying aircraft wins. If both are destroyed in the sky, the round is considered a draw. If they die within 5 seconds of each other, it's a draw. -75 parts at most -400 fuel per J-404 -500 fuel per TurboRamjet -200 fuel per Wheesley -100 fuel per Juno -REACTION WHEELS ARE ALSO NOT ALLOWED. -All designs must be withing the point limit, which is stated below. -All turrets MUST be fixed forward -Max two entries per tournament. -No clipping fuel tanks or engines. They can be slightly clipped for looks, but not completely inside each other. Structural parts and ammo, guns, gear, etc. Is ok. Wings are OK as long as you're not putting more than half of wing surface area(estimated) inside the plane. Point System 60 point limit -AIM-9 - 5 Points -AIM-120 - 4 Points -All other missiles - 4 points -Chaff - 2 Points -Flares- 3 Points -Ammo Can - 4 points (all types) -.50 cal turret - 4 points -GAU 8 30mm - 14 points -M230 - 6 points -Vulcan Hidden - 6 points -Vulcan Turret - 8 points -ECM Jammer - 20 points -Goalkeeper - Banned -Abrams Cannon - Banned -M102 - Banned -Millennium Cannon - Banned ABL Laser - Banned Setting up matches To set up the match, all planes will be VesselMover'd into position, and then the host will quicksave, and start the match. Already submitted crafts may be modified until the tournament starts on August 30th. Any AI and Weapons Manager settings can be changed(but altitude settings must be default).

  18. Sorry about that. No mods this time about.
