Hey, whats up?
I'm kind of getting sick of this prompt
Haha, ya me too! now that I get it I have a test tomorrow that I have no idea what Im doing! Haha. Its on my cs224 class and I guess Im just super lost
At first, I thought that the prompts were pretty creative, but now they are getting pretty boring.
Right now im doing practice problems in the textbook just to figure things out. Ya, there is only like 5 promps
I thought you said that your grade in that class was pretty good.
prompts
I have my physics test today, most likely, and I am screwed:)
Its an A, but that doesnt mean it will be after this midterm Haha Oh, good luck. I should be taking my cs224 test today, but im just going to end up doing it tomorrow
Ya, I got a 68.8 percent on my last math midterm
Ill pay the 5 dollar late fee for getting a better grade Oh, shoot Is your math class pretty hard?
I have probably spent fourty dollars so far on late fees. They are my bread and butter. It's ok, the class average on the test was a 70%, so I think it was just a hard test.
Ya, I didnt realize until this semester that you can do that. Now I think Ive spent 10 going on 15 dollars on it
The late fees are worth it for the most part:)
Ya, they can be pretty good. I wish they didnt charge us, but thats ok Whatever floats their boats, if it allows me another day to be able to take my test, whatever
They charge us so that not everyone goes in on the last day.
Ya, I guess its kind of a benefit, so that its not just so packed. Have you ever gone to the testing center and had to wait in a long line? Ive never really had to wait for very long
Ya, one time, I was waiting near that weird tree monument at the Joseph Smith Building
Wait... the line was so long it was outside the building?
yup
Holy Cow! Ive actually never stood in a line at all in the testing center! Thats just really weird to picture that there was a line that filled that room went downstairs and outside the building How long did it take to be able to get into the test?
Like forty minutes. It wasn't too bad, but it definantly lessened the time I used on the test.
Oh, man! thats just a long time to wait in a line. Thats like a ride or two at the lagoon on the most popular rides. Haha
Ya, it was pretty ridiculous, but the line moved faster than I expected.
Thats good, im glad for your sake and for everyone else. Thats just insane. Anyway... I hope that I never have to wait that long while here at BYU Are you going for the second raffle ticket?
Ya, I think so. I won't be getting the Ipad, but I would like to update my chances for winning the macbook Pro. I really do not expect to win it, but if I do then that'd be awesome. The problem is that in order to do that I have to type a lot of words, and use up a lot of time, and I also don't have that kind of time.
Ya, that would be pretty cool. Would you sell the macbook or would you give it to sadie, or keep it just for yourself? Ya, that would take a long time to get that many words.
I would probably give it to Sadie, and then we would sell her MacBook and buy me a sweet gaming laptop:)
It doesnt honestly take that much time though, I have still been able to do my homework and all and still have over 4 million points right now Haha, thats a great idea! I feel like gaming laptops are really expensive too though.
Ya, I don't think I would get a lap top, I would probably get an actual desktop.
Gaming desktops can be a little cheaper and more powerful too
Ya, plus I can upgrade it.
nvidia has developed new graphics cards, that means that the 10 series is going to be coming down in price
What's the new card called?
Ya, they last longer because of that reason too Its just called the 20 series. Haha Its a full series of cards
Wow, what great naming conventions.
They seem to be pretty cool. They all benchmark more than the previous series Ya, they are really original with how they name things. haha
Isn't that the idea of a new series.
But it does make it easier to distinguish between generations. I think I actually like it like that Ya, that is the idea, but sometimes they dont benchmark that much higher, and some of the cards in the series dont necessarily benchmark higher, but all of them in this one do so far
Ok, that makes sense.
Sometimes the cards are just minor differences Maybe Ill pick up a 10 series card though, they are plenty powerful enough for many of the things that I need to do
Ya, I'm not planning on 4k gaming
You have to have a 4K monitor for 4K gaming. Maybe VR though Im thinking of getting a VR set Probably the VIVE
A guy I work with picked up a dell set for 50 bucks on ksl
If I get it we need to get together and have a VR party
How much do they cost?
Dang! Thats pretty cheap. Is it a good set? I feel like the VIVE and the Oculus are really high up in quality but I havent really heard much of other brands Brand new they cost around 600 dollars. They arent cheap Haha
Holy cow, that's way expensive.
But maybe I can find one on KSL classifieds in the next year or so I dont mind getting a used VIVE. They just seem really sweet and fluid Have you used BYUs VIVE
I used it for a second when I was fixing it, but nothing else.
You should check it out. When you put on the glasses you actually feel like you are in the world that you are playing Its pretty crazy!
Ya, it does seem pretty cool.
I never would have thought that it was as smooth as it was until I put on the glasses and realized it was as if I was in an animated world with arrows that I was shooting at little animated characters
The vive headset is way comfortable, I would totally use it.
I think if I can find it for under 200 dollars I will probably end up getting it, as long as I have my pc first
ya, when are you going to do that?
Im going to be getting my PC in january or february whenever the new ryzen chips come out Then I will probably save up a little money and then get some RAM or get a Vive whichever I convince myself to do first
You will probably want the RAM, you will use it more often. I need to get the second Raffle Ticket by Nov 14. I have to start typing more!
Ya, but games are cool too I also dont have games for the Vive yet either
That's true, you would have to buy them.
I think I will probably get the RAM first, but maybe later, when they upgrade the Vive or something, Ill get the new one.
When do you think that will happen?
Maybe Ill get the oculus rift... it might be more upgraded by then I have no idea, I just know that this next spring I will have a super dope PC That I will be doing some hard core stuff on
Then I can game on your laptop and you on your desktop! It's going to be a party!
And im looking forward to it so bad Haha! Ya, itll be a real party!
How much money do you have saved up?
Some Haha I have enough to have fun shopping with
So less than 200 dollars:)
I have like 10
as in one thousand, or as in ten dollars?
10 dollars. its really sad actually and after tomorrows test it will be 5. Haha
you need to start saving up if you hope to get a computer
Just kidding, I have more money than that, and I think Ill be able to get anything computer wise that I will want to when I upgrade
How much money are you talking?
I could probably get a titan or a 20 series, but I dont think that I will want to
Insert mouth open emoji here.
I dont think that the titan series is worth the money
Why not? You are going to need something powerful if you want to run VR, maybe a dual titan set up
Its nice and its totally the best card out there, but every year cards upgrade and next years card will be just as good or better than the titan
ya, but the titan will keep you up to date for a while
Haha, I dont have money for a dual titan setup. I will have a sick CPU and I already have a decent GPU I will have 16 - 32 Gigabytes of RAM
The titan V is only four thousand dollars.
Im actually not sure that the Titan will. Its starting to get old already, but its still nice. They do keep it up to date though. I just think for the money these cards like the 10 and 20 series are more budget oriented
How much is a 20 series card?
They go from 300 dollars up to a thousand or so
Would you buy like a 700 dollar card?
Depending on how much RAM and which model you get I probably wont get a GPU
What GPU do you have/
I dont think I will need one when the CPU will do pretty much the necessities that I will need and I will also already have a GPU Its old, but its still ranked like 56 fastest GPU that is out there or something its the 760TI or something like that Its not that fast, but it will do the job that I will need. It will play VR Or at least it says that its VR ready I think
Hmm, what kind of GPU should I get then?
I dont know, first you have to get a computer. GPUs are accessories, the important things are the computer
I'm going for a titan V
Yes! Go for that one!
Well if I'm getting a gaming computer then the GPU is the most important!
See if you can get a sweet bargain with them for a 100 dollars I dont know, I think that the GPU is important, but honestly the high end ones are just overkill
It depends on what kind of games you want to Play
Just picture this, the card thats in my laptop handles most games just fine, the baseline desktop GPUs are way more powerful than my 4 yr old quadro card Thats true, but you dont have to play them on the "Extreme overkill overlord CPU and GPU killer" mode Unless you want to. That would be pretty cool!
Ya you do, if you don't then why are they making such sweet graphics?!?
You make a good point! Titan here we come! Nah, I just dont have the money for that
Ya, if you aren't saving up for the Titan you are not living life.
Youre right, Im just doing stupid stuff with my life. If I dont spend 5000 dollars on a desktop that can do everything that I could ever want in my life, then my life sucks. Why am I even alive. haha
Ya, you might as well just stop trying! Don't even game, it's not worth your time;) I would actually probably get the gtx 1060
I actually don't really game. Haha. I only Starcraft
That would do it for me.
That would be a really good card for the money.
Ya, it's pretty cheap, but would do 1080p gaming
Ya. I think it's also 4K and VR ready too
Ya, I'm doing a pc part picker thing right now.
But maybe that's just some of them. I'm not sure. But I think that is the best bang for your buck What kinds of things is it telling you to get?
My Pc came out at like 800 But 200$ of that is from windows 10 and the monitor. Ok, I need to go to class, I will get back on later
