    PETA MC server being created

    I'm sorry, but I will grief their server because of atrocities they commit, while still maintaining the visage of the good samaritan "we love animals" organization. I mean, their campaign works. They make people believe their BS. Just look at you berating people for having the audacity to...

    Good Computer For FTB Packs

    I apologize if I'm coming off as disagreeable, but this is also false. but you do get bonus points for knowing who Ducky is. :) The machine I play minecraft on is 7 year old hardware (Q9400, 8gb ram) with a GTX 550ti. and I see the 60-100fps OP is looking for in large packs. Minecraft is just...

    Good Computer For FTB Packs

    Why on earth would you put a GTX 970 in a PC for minecraft? No seriously. Why? @Christophernjsp /critique on The build itself isn't terrible, but some of your support hardware is questionable. My only gripes are the cpu, the cooler, the PSU, the memory, and the SSD. If one is spending $300...

    Can't play Direwolf 20 1.7

    Okay, but why? I mean, if it's robust enough to run a 64 bit OS... are you just lacking the ram to dedicate? that is definitely a problem. edit: yeah, that's exactly what it is. 4gb total system ram is definitely not enough for these new packs.

    Can't play Direwolf 20 1.7

    That's not what i got from his post. The way I understood it is "you need to allocate more than 1.25gb for modded 1.7 to play" If you're experiencing problems running the recommended amount of ram allocation (which is 3-4gb I believe) you have other problems.

    Optimal computer specs for the FTB packs

    The v3 xeons (Haswell) are basically a less expensive i7 with a locked multi and no iGPU. I've been recommend them to people who do not want to overclock, or will not be overclocking heavily, and have a dedicated GPU. The v2's are on socket 2011 and are aging fast...actually, they all are...

    Can't play Direwolf 20 1.7

    Very true, but single player is actually more taxing than multiplayer. Your pc is both host and client on SSP.

    Direwolf20 1.7.10 released

    Why are you shocked? it says in all capital letters when you click on the pack "PUBLIC BETA TEST VERSION" which loosely translates to "Yeah, some of you are going to have problems, and some of you will have severe problems. Your mileage will vary."

    Final PC build

    I have no idea why they would recommend 3 sticks of memory. I would be wary of that website, in that case.

    Final PC build

    Any reason you're only running 3 sticks of ram? This processor's architecture does not support tri-channel, and by running 3 sticks you are actually going to hurt performance rather than help it. Either buy another stick, or only run 16gb ram. @tedyhere the psu is fine. 54a on the +12v rail...

    Help with PC build

    If we're talking stock vs. stock, then yeah at that point it just becomes "do you prefer coke or pepsi?" the two processors you linked benchmarks to are great in their own right, but the OP mentioned overclocking. Intel's architecture these days responds a lot better to it than amd. if the...

    it was in post 21, sorry. wasn't necessarily directed to you I guess. but no, you should be able to clear 4-4.5ghz on the stock cooler.

    Help with PC build

    If you can't overclock the xeon I linked with the ram i linked to 4.5ghz, something is wrong. :P As long as your support hardware is good, those chips have no problem seeing 4ghz+.

    Help with PC build

    I hope you were looking at the socket 1150 V3 Haswell core xeons, and not the other ones. The higher priced ones are 6-14 core beasts running on a different socket. :p edit: this memory is hot btw. 19ns latency, compared to 23ns with the memory you have chosen @Wagon153

    My friend, that is a haswell-EP, and the benchmarks say it all. That's why i linked to a partcular generation of xeon and specifically said "when building a system today."

    Help with PC build

    Also =1921&cmp[]=1942']this is something to consider when building a new system today. Xeons, bruh... Xeons. They're performing as well as desktop processors that cost a similar amount in single threaded applications, and still retaining the benefits of being a server processor. Throw an...

    ANIME AVATARS!

    http://www.yenpress.com/spice-and-wolf-novel/ furry light-erotica masquerading as a primer on economic principles. the anime is not as horrifying as it sounds, I promise, but it only covers the first few volumes of the novels.

    Help with PC build

    Not even talking about bottlnecking. You would need to overclock something to bottleneck anything, and you would have to overclock a substantial amount to even do that. That build is for last-gen gaming, it will not stand the test of time, at least not without a heavy overclock. Currently...
