Totally euphoric right now after getting a self made 8-bit computer (z80 CPU) to work. Now jumping around and telling random people about it.

I looked up a z80 CPU. AAAAAAnd, there's more than one.

 

Also:

Software emulation of the Z80 instruction set on modern PCs runs faster than the original Z80 CPU ran.

It's obvious, but still funny to read.

Chuck, may I bring science to the table? Whey protein is by far better than the traditional means of eating protein (steak eggs etc.) as it contains no fat and much less cholesterol than meat while also being highly concentrated in form. It's highly convenient and healthier to take. That is why both (insert name I forgot) and I buy it (though i get the shitty BJ's EAS in a 1 gallon bag that starts clumping in a week)

 

As far as the fact that you two are at each other's throats...

Watching a surprisingly intense argument about protein. It's as entertaining as it is concerning.

It's not an argument... I hope. I'm trying to stay out of the argument side and keep on the "I'm always right because I'm a self-asserting douchebag who knows facts and science" side.

I'm just about to head to bed... Somehow all of a sudden I wen from going to bed at 4AM to getting tired at 11:30PM.

Don't insult me. I have trained professionals to do that.

Yeah, sorry, but URL's don't work that way. Either you wanted to post an embedded YouTube video, in which case you can't have text in the link and have to use the YouTube tags, or you tried to post a link to the video, in which case you should've included the full link and not just the YouTube ID...

 

Anyway, having some breakfast and getting ready for work.

I know how it works, I just came here with intent to embed it but decided against it because it really wasn't worth it but forgot that I only posted the ID but didn't preview it because the quick-replies don't have that button. I know how the tags work.

 

OT: Watching youtube videos to avoid doing work.

Haven't been able to fall asleep all night. So I've been up, getting my hopes up and looking around for reviews on the components on my soon to be PC. From what I've seen, it's nothing special. Just able to run Crysis on Ultra and whatnot. Like I said, no big deal [/sarcasm]

Funny thing is, Crysis isn't the "ultimate stress test" any more, because it is TERRIBLY optimized for newer systems. It will run bad even if you far exceed the specs that SHOULD run it well; I know this from personal experience. For example, I have a PC that can run Battlefield Bad Company 2 (graphics hog from 2010) on max settings at a decent framerate, but Call of Duty 4 (a mediocre-looking game from 2007) runs like absolute crap on it at medium-high settings.

 

Now a days, Battlefield 3 or possibly the yet-unreleased Crysis 3 will be your best bet.

 

OT: Mixing and mastering and all that fun stuff.

Depends on whether you run the 32bit or 64bit versions of Crysis. The 64bit version is optimized to take full advantage of 64bit systems and multicore CPU's so if you play the 32bit executable on a 64bit system, regardless of how good your PC is, that version won't be able to take full advantage of your rig.
