Question to those who got a GPU with 16 pin connector

Just a heads up I don't understand all that much of PC hardware and all my life I have been with an AMD. A friend is willing to help me upgrade my PC. He told me that for graphics performance Nvidia is the way and warned me about the 16 pin connector of Hell. Even he doesn't know how to upgrade his own machine so I wanted to ask the community. Why do you buy GPUs with that connector when you consciously know it's a massive issue and a gamble if your GPU will fry or not. Not only are we paying ludicrous price for it but it comes out faulty from the factory. I heard they also removed the ability to monitor the temperature of the hottest spot. It all begins with the more demanding games and I get it. You want to game on 4k, 8k whatever but is the risk worth it? Why should we think of ways to fix something that shouldn't be a problem altogether? Shouldn't we demand for a more reliable GPU that we can use for years (because prices are not getting lower anyway) instead of relying on warranty? Same goes for AMD because their cards also use that same connector.

Where i can download the main theme?

I have no problem with with purchasing it too of course. It's a song, it will be couple of bucks or so. I just want to have it high quality. I am sorta a digital hoarder and I also like my music digital (I also like phones with an expendable storage cause I need it) but I can't find the main theme anywhere. Found something on Spotify but it was with a wrong pitch.

How do you open your doors in Catalyst?

Do you force open them with a kick, do slam 'em with your hand or do you open them gently?

What's the connection of the story between the two games

Hello, recently I played Mirrors Edge for the first time and now I started Catalyst. It could be my fault for not noticing but what is the story connection between the two games? Mirrors edge had few distinct characters such as Merc, Kat and other whom I forgot their names and the game left off on a positive note. Catalyst starts off from leaving jail and meeting with people who I see for the first time but Faith knows them her entire life. In the beginning you get your old clothes back which implies a connection between the two games.

P.S. I prefer the voice actress from the first game. I just had to say it.. I hope I could get your opinion on that topic as well.

Car turned from a one time purchase to a project car

Hello everyone, I am Purify. I have an addiction. When I get a car, I give it upgrades. I got my w204 couple or so years ago and since I got it an android unit, installed cruize control, unlocked sign recognition in my country, bought cheap AMG then polished them and now I got Bi-Xenon headlights.. Same issue I has with my A3 8L. I placed a sticker "Can you handle all this derriere", I tinted my rear windows, replaced the pre-face headlights with facelift (albeit cheap aftermarket ones), changed interior lights to LED, got it a nice Sparco wheel cover(which was amazing), changed front speakers, changed rear speakers, placed cables for subwoofer, got a subwoofer with an amplifier and tuned it from 90HP to 124HP. Do you have any? What is your w204 addiction?

I think I am starting to understand the D3 BFG Edition

My theory is that they were trying to make Doom 3 like the previous games. They were trying to fix what they "screwed up". I wonder what you think.

  1. Shoulder mounted flashlight - they made a game where it's essential to use it. There was no need of a flashlight in the classic games so they made it shoulder mounted so that you can run and gun all you want.

  2. More ammunition - in Doom 1 and 2 you always had more than enough ammo. Only problem is that the classic Doom games were designed to have more action and more enemies hence you needed more ammo. I haven't heard Doom 3 BFG to increase the enemy count so all this ammunition is in abundance.

  3. Faster movement speeds and stamina lasts much longer - Doom 1 and 2 walking and running were faster. You practically fly throughout the levels but longer stamina? Stamina already had a long duration Why not remove it completely...

  4. Hazmat suit sequence removed from Resurrection of Evil + Green Pillar Room sequence removed - Making so that it doesn't slow down the pacing of the game

  5. Armor no longer decays once it exceeds 100 - I don't know... Doom 3 for babies?

  6. Unskipable Cutscenes - You got me there. They wanted to empathise on the story?

Everything else pretty much is visual and scripting changes.

Goodbye to OEM battery

Yesterday I had to say goodbye to my oem battery from 2011. ECO dies about years ago, hold function died months ago and the parking sensors were acting up few days ago. I bet on the brand and got Moll. It's too bad they don't produce AGM anymore. We will see how long it will last..
