^ Pretty nice.

Anyone know of any L-shaped desk that can support a two-monitor setup and have reasonably enough space for me to do my homework on it as well?

you need an amp to drive those speakers and sub.

Love this AMD FX 8 Core CPU.

Never goes above 20° no matter what I do.

My pc's loud as hell. It's been like that for probably two months. It's only loud when i'm playing a game. The gpu temp is at 80+ degrees. I use earbuds, so i've ignored it for a while. Specs: i5 6600k/rx 480

Sounds about right. AMD runs hot. You running your fans at max?

Also, AMD blower style graphic cards are loud as hell. I had one overheat on me because it was clogged up with dust.

 

[djyoung08]

i rarely hear good things about AMD cards

is it just the price ?? is that why people insist on having cards they complain about?

 

[Nawzlew]

Yup

Nice. From Tai Hao?

I have some black Vortex PBTs but kinda wanna get another set.

Massdrop has a set of NPKC Miamis right now ...

I've not tweaked any type of fan settings. Everything should be stock.

I'd go Windows honestly. XPS 13 is very nice.

I have both Macbooks + Lenovo Thinkpads and I lean towards Thinkpad every time.

I have an old T series thinkpad that I've had for years but it's time to upgrade. I've had a mac before too. I'm torn between the xps and MacBook. How is the keyboard on the xps? I have big hands.

I'd go Mac cause Windows 10 is ******* trash.
