[2016-11-13. : 1:27 am] NudeRaider -- hm. thats a lot more for a card that costs only $200-$300 (if desktop price is any indication) ![]() [2016-11-13. : 1:26 am] NudeRaider -- I mean the notebooks you were considering with a 960m are good value, but you have to answer for yourself if they're fast enough. It's likely that they'll be at the point where your current laptop is now in like 2-3 years.[2016-11-13. : 1:25 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- maybe I should look in a couple weeks after thanksgiving[2016-11-13. : 1:24 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- there doesn't seem to be any on amazon in this price range (which was just the first place I thought of xD)[2016-11-13. : 1:23 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I'm not super worried about high/ultra, other than I'd hope that it would last for a few years[2016-11-13. : 1:23 am] NudeRaider -- aren't there decent laptops with a 1060? Should perform much better and most importantly be much more future proof.[2016-11-13. : 1:22 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I bumped up my price range by a few hundred and now I see 860Ms, which seems like a step down ;o[2016-11-13. : 1:20 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: also that article keeps talking about 2GB RAM, this has 4 which probably means that the card was built for 2 GB RAM regarding RAM transfer speed, but they slapped on another 2GB so it still seems relevant (which it isn't imo, for any serious gaming)[2016-11-13. : 1:19 am] NudeRaider -- the easiest way to gain cheap performance is to lower (native) resoluton.[2016-11-13. : 1:18 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- also that article keeps talking about 2GB RAM, this has 4[2016-11-13. : 1:16 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- what should I look for instead? 980M (based on that article)?[2016-11-13. : 1:15 am] NudeRaider -- hm, are you sure you'll be happy with a 960m? http://www.notebookcheck.net/Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-960M-Review.137893.0.html It seems it's already struggling with high on some games, which means you can play the game on medium instead of low now.[2016-11-13. : 1:09 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- "Intel Core i7-6700HQ 2.6 GHz, 8GB DDR4, 1TB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M 4GB - $869" is the one I'm considering[2016-11-13. : 1:08 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: FaRTy1billion FaRTy1billion dunno. 12 GB just seems odd. Does is say triple channel anywhere? I already said that's not the one I was looking at anymore http://www.staredit.net/topic/17125/[2016-11-13. : 1:08 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: NudeRaider It says "NVIDIA GT940MX 4GB", but it doesn FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: doesn't say shared or anything anywhere dunno. 12 GB just seems odd. Does is say triple channel anywhere?[2016-11-13. : 1:08 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: it's probably gonna break in like 3 years anyways so whatever I've had this laptop for 5 and it's still like new, the only problem is it's not powerful enough[2016-11-13. : 1:08 am] Dem0n -- any laptop that is emphasized for gaming is bound to die sooner than others[2016-11-13. : 1:08 am] Moose -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: okay, I won't bother, Moose You can if you want to, just don't be disappointed when it doesn't go anywhere.[2016-11-13. : 1:06 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- nude do you know about hardware/laptops? http://www.staredit.net/topic/17125/[2016-11-13. : 1:04 am] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: new wtf? Why would you do such a thing? buy it 1 year old and you pay only 2/3 for practially the same car.[2016-11-13. : 1:02 am] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Dem0n reformat Mini Moose 2707![]() Mini Moose 2707 shouted: If it isn't recognizing NTFS, your partition table might be corrupted. or maybe repartition ![]() [2016-11-13. : 1:02 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: FaRTy1billion I don't think there is actually VRAM. Probably more like 12 GB RAM, 4 of those are used for the graphics chip, so in reality you have 8. It says "NVIDIA GT940MX 4GB", but it doesn[2016-11-13. : 1:00 am] NudeRaider -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: Hard drive is NTFS but computer saying it's RAW. SMH reformat ![]() [2016-11-13. : 1:00 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: pretty much the only real difference I'm seeing is RAM, which I don't think I need to be worrieda about (all >= 8 GB), and 2GB vs. 4GB VRAM I don't think there is actually VRAM. Probably more like 12 GB RAM, 4 of those are used for the graphics chip, so in reality you have 8.[2016-11-13. : 12:53 am] Fire_Kame -- http://www.duffelblog.com/2016/11/doomsday-prepper-has-no-idea-what-to-do-with-all-this-ammo-now/[2016-11-13. : 12:47 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Also MapExp was also designed to open protected maps, and TinyMap assumes the map is fresh from the editor[2016-11-13. : 12:45 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- MapExp's is probably the best that I have currently, but I don't think TinyMap uses that one[2016-11-13. : 12:44 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I basically copy+paste my CHK parsing code between programs and adjust as needed, so idk how rigorous TinyMap's is.[2016-11-13. : 12:43 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- idk if like MTXM duplication or STR section protection would break it or not. (I guess I'm aware of more protections than I first though xD)[2016-11-13. : 12:42 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- TinyMap already fiddles with VCOD, it removes any editor-only sections (so if any of those are fucked with, they're gone), it remakes the MPQ so (if it could open the map in the first place) those would be gone, and any broken sections would be removed.[2016-11-13. : 12:41 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I haven't actually looked in to what protections do, so I'm not sure. I'm really only aware of like VCOD stuff and some MPQ protections[2016-11-13. : 12:40 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I just meant that if SC can play it, it can be opened[2016-11-13. : 12:38 am] Moose -- It's impossible for there to exist a form of map-editor but not map-playable corruption that isn't compressed out?[2016-11-13. : 12:37 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: And if it was, no proof that it was the only thing used on the map. (IE, another protector before the compression) doesn't matter FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: protection is silly because if SC can read it, then it can be unlocked [2016-11-13. : 12:33 am] Moose -- And if it was, no proof that it was the only thing used on the map. (IE, another protector before the compression)[2016-11-13. : 12:32 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- protection is silly because if SC can read it, then it can be unlocked[2016-11-13. : 12:31 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: There is. Dem0n has no proof that TinyMap was what was used on the map he wants to get into. I could manually unlock it[2016-11-13. : 12:31 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- sometimes I consider remaking it, since the code is a mess and I gave up trying to clean it & I could probably add a few more 0s[2016-11-13. : 12:31 am] Moose -- There is. Dem0n has no proof that TinyMap was what was used on the map he wants to get into.[2016-11-13. : 12:30 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I considered that once, but people like the protection and I'm pretty sure there are unprotectors that work on it |
