  1. In that case you should check out Top Gear USA from season 3 onwards :p I'm not even kidding, it got really good after they stopped following the UK format and just did trips and challenges every episode. Plus it seemed like the 3 hosts started to gel a lot more and were allowed to say more of what they wanted rather than stick to a script. Definitely recommended watching IMO.

  2. Ah I see lol. I dunno man, Vergne has had it once or twice now, but I'm just as perplexed as to who in their right mind would choose Piquet. Personally if they're gonna do a boost system then I think every driver should have one boost per car instead of just the drivers who people voted for. Makes it a lot fairer.

    I think over the next few years they will end up going to more proper circuits, but as a starting point to get the profile of the series up its gotta be street tracks unfortunately. But over time I'm definitely interested to see what FE could turn into :)

  3. Vergne joined like halfway through the season :p And it's racing, yoy can't just give it to him lol. Piquet hopefully won't win tomorrow though, can't stand the guy, and how he got fan boost I couldn't even tell you lol. My opinion of him is the same as yours. And yea, fan boost is pretty stupid really, I'm hoping they ditch it sooner rather than later.

    Reason it's on tracks like this though is because by holding the races in the middle of a city it's a lot easier for people to go to and watch, plus it massively boosts the profile of the series. Even though some of the circuits have been dreadful it's a pretty smart way to get Formula E noticed.

  4. @Hughesy This is the tightest circuit they've raced on yet bud. Some of the other circuits were a lot better for racing. The recent races haven't been the most exciting, but the first half of the season was constantly good races. 

  5. Seriously Piquet? Lol, **** move, seemed to me like he was maybe trying to take out his championship rival early. I mean hell why turn there when you were so far from the corner still? I suppose it isn't the first time he's cheated though.

  6. Holy crap! What a race! Those last 3 laps had me shouting at the TV lol. Very cheeky move from Marquez at the end, clearly pushed him off the circuit with a silly last corner move. Not the first time Marquez has used his bike to push other riders out of his way.

    Damn happy with the result though! The right man won.

    @RevolvingPrawn You seen the reviews for the Fury X yet? Cost upto £100 more than a 980ti, performs worse and only 4GB of ram due to HBM V1 :joy: All the hype about HBM, yet still performs worse or near the same as a TI....
    Makes me laugh that it's actually not that much better than a 980, and even gets beaten by the 980 in some games :D Love it too how AMD released those benchmarks a week or so ago showing how the Fury X was better than a 980 Ti, yet when real reviewers start benching it it's fairly clear that AMD only picked out the ones that made the card look better than it actually is.

    @AMS97KRR @Matthew77258 Just finished season 5 and my face right now: :o

    [spoiler]Really hoping the theory you guys mentioned will happen, otherwise I'm down to only 2 favourite characters left :'([spoiler]
    Lol, I'm not worried personally ;)
    I am :p You seen the interviews from the director of the episode and the actor?

    Why did you think it wouldn't fit? That's how close mine sits to the GPU. Glad you figured something out bud, I like the SLI bridge. Although I love the look of the H110i GT, the LED bit is smaller than it is on the H100i, but still looks really nice.


    While  playing The Witcher 3 my CPU temps barely go over 54c :o I'm sure this is lower than the Noctua was, still don't get why it's so good in games compared to it, yet over 10c hotter while running Prime 95. Doesn't matter really, as only gaming temps matter. 
    I wasn't worried about it fitting into the slot, knew it would :p I was worried that it would stop the SLI bridge from fitting onto the SLI pins. It doesn't look too close in the pics but the actual port on the bridge is less than 1mm away from the sound card lol.

    Seems we're roughly the same on temps :) Not sure what my temps are on W3, but my CPU is always in the 50c's in games. I had the same thing with running P95 though dude, it's usually around 70-80c for me running it, and once 99c after forgetting to put the fans at full speed ;)

  10. Finally all sorted with a sound card :) Been through 3 different ones this week lol. 

    First when I put it in and powered up, it has an orange light. Ignore the purple tinge, it's white LED's but my camera just seems to tinge them purple for some reason.


    So I messed around a little with it and no more orange light :D 



    @Hughesy Figured out my FP Audio issues too, stuck a splitter on the green cable, then an extender on that and taped it under my desk. All I gotta do now is plug in my headphones and turn off the speakers lol :) No need for switching in the playback devices. Also that's the new SLI bridge, makes the old one look tiny!
