@RCBear007 @ODanicaRockwood "Needs"?
Nah.
Nvidia's NVENC encoders are superior for streaming, and spending over $200 more for a 9070XT wouldn't have yielded enough performance benefit for the cost.
Just the same, we went with the 9950X and saved almost $200 (again) compared to the X3D.
I'm just saying.
@corklezlaplante This song goes SO hard. It came up on Apple Music the other night during an intense workout and I swear the weights got lighter as soon as I heard "SOFT. SPINE!"
@RubyTalyn That was me. I was so tempted by some of what I saw, but I ultimately ended up uninstalling the app and not buying anything, LOL. Sadness...but also, safety.
@wr3ckin_it I remember this "ah-hah" moment like it was yesterday. The woman who was supposed to care about and support me more than any other (outside of a mother) begged me to be emotionally vulnerable with her. The moment I was, the moment I shed a tear...everything changed. Forever.
@RubyTalyn I'm in desperate need of building a new PC myself. This 4790k isn't cutting it anymore...LOL!
It'll have to cut it for a while though...other things to spend money on.
So that means, you have to upload lots of pics of your build as it comes along so I can live vicariously.
@DanicaAltwood I can only speak for myself, but I grew up with a hoarder... things were EVERYWHERE...there was no visual cleanliness to be had. Now that I'm in control, clean and minimalistic just "feels" better.
As I age though, I'm warming up to the idea of a more decorated environment.
@wr3ckin_it Every time I've seen you stream, no matter how much time passed in between streams, you've always got a supportive core audience who seems elated to see you and be part of the evening, so I think to assume no one would be looking forward to it is selling yourself short, my friend
