So Controlled Labs, what is your gamer tag? (Xbox Live)

[powercage]

Nah, I save PC for games that just simply don't work for console. I've always played FPS on console.

I thought overwatch was fun, but couldn't justify $60 for another FPS with just a few characters. Plus the minigun dude is OP.

minigun dude is arguably the worst character in the game actually. I think he gave people problems before everyone realized how to counter him

Hes easily countered if your team has any coordination, so much so hes almost never picked.

That's the Final Fantasy VII victory screen lol...older ones looked like this:

lol, I love final fantasy games

[MrMakAttack]

so share with us....a very nice PC built for gaming. What are we looking at $$$ wise?

many thanks man.... honestly, I wouldnt mind going this route if I know how to put a PC together.

I only have one game on disc for console. With digital copies you can link Xbox's with a friend and split games, so that's all I buy.

yep. havent paid much for games since 2013 because of this feature. I have like 3 friends I'm sharing the "console" with.

That build is a POS.



Srs.


I don't think I'd spend any less than $600-700 if you plan on gaming.

Didn't know about this. Is this trick available on PS4?

[CONTROLLED LABS]

awesome, glad they got it up so quickly

Quoting because third times the charm

But srs, if you're going to make a pre for gamers make it decent. So good job to Controlled Labs.

I play PS4 with my kids and they're tough. My three year old is building towns in Minecraft and I'm not even close to joking. I need to step by game up.

thanks, this is well ahead of the typical gamer supplement

love it

It's marketed for gaming, but profile says it should be good for other things like studying, something to use prior to attending class, energy drink replacement for a night out, etc.

I'd love to try this out, hopefully Pineapple is approved for production <3. Ive had too much bubblegum in the past few months, with white flood lol

correct, can be used for a variety of situations including lifting

Eh, great job CL. This is pretty good lookin. Haven't tried any of the lions mane products yet. Let us know a release date asap

lions mane is pretty awesome, give it a shot.

I'm intrigued with the profile. Not sure how I feel about it, the caffeine content seems to be just right but I'll say honestly I'm not sure how all the other ingredients will play a factor in focus.

you will love it, give it a shot. there will be plenty of opportunities to win a free tub as well.

[MrMakAttack]

many thanks man.... honestly, I wouldnt mind going this route if I know how to put a PC together.

It really isn't that hard. I had someone help me with my first build and have built about 4 others since then. Go to somewhere like overclock.net and have them spec out the hardware for you based on your budget. They get off on competing for who can build the best rig at the cheapest price.

That build is a POS.



Srs.

Agreed, but it is comparable to a PS4.

[DamonX]

I'm not sure, I think it is only an xbox thing, but i may be wrong.

[BenBlue]

Agree somewhat. But if you spec out the right PC and you get a processor and cooler that has unloacked cores or allows for a little bit of overclocking, your PC will last much longer than a console. Plus, graphics on a PC compared to a console are far superior...because for the most part, newer cpus are cheaper to put in a PC than in a console....plus you can't ever upgrade a console ever. Witha PC you can upgrade the ram, gpu, you can OC the cpu, etc. You get what you get with a console and that is it until the next version comes out.

Consoles may be cheaper initially, but their horsepower for the price is inferior to a custom built rig. Plus...and this is kind of a big deal...you get a fully functioning computer capable of doing many different things whereas with a console you can game, watch movies and potentially surf the internet and that is it.

@Ben, you can get a console controller for a PC....

This post has me seriously reconsidering lmao when this gen is done, may consider switching. Need a new rig for recording anyway

My laptop is better than that though, and my laptop isn't going to do a good job with demanding games. Just because you can put together a cheap PC doesn't mean that's a great option, IMO. The thing with PC gaming is that it moves fast. The PS4 will probably still be current gen for the next 5 years or so, and still have another couple years after that where games are still being produced for it. A cheap PC has a year, and then it won't run the current games anymore unless you nerf the settings. Don't get me wrong, if money was no issue, I'd go PC over console for sure. I built my own rig when I had a normal person job and wasn't working on getting a business off the ground, and I didn't regret that build. But it's the more expensive route.

We may just have to agree to disagree. Laptops usually aren't good options for gaming due to inadequate cooling. I know this from having an Alienware laptop. Plus you're pretty much stuck with what you got when you get a laptop. I definitely wouldn't suggest a laptop over a console for gaming. But if you're considering buying a new console, I would definitely consider building a computer instead and it is a no-brainer if you're in the market for a new computer.

I'm a sucker for good graphics and high frame rate so I will always favor PC gaming. And I disagree about needing to upgrade after a year. My rig is several years old now and I guarantee I can probably play any of the newest games out there with no problems. If not I can go and invest $100 in last year's or the year before top graphics card and be golden.

But to be fair I will say that my PC is not cheap... it was around $800 for everything including the monitor if I remember correctly. My son's is much cheaper and I guarantee that he can still play any of the newest games with it. He may need to upgrade the graphics card but you're only looking at $100 or so.

Anyone play Skyrim? I got like 500 hours in that **** and still rocking it. Also i used to own in COD4. AK47 No attachment.

You'd only need to upgrade after a year if you bought the computer that article suggested lol. But even a high end PC has a shorter shelf-life than a console. Like I had said before, the PS2 was current gen for 6 years and then it was 13 years before it actually got discontinued, and the PS3 was current gen for 7 years and it's still technically supported. You'd need to upgrade a computer several times to keep it current in that timespan. That gaming rig that I said I built? That was probably just under 10 years ago and it way outclassed the current consoles on the market. But now that thing is long gone and would be way obsolete at this point.

I wouldn't suggest a laptop for gaming either. They're expensive, hard to upgrade, and most likely you want a separate mouse and keyboard anyway (well definitely a mouse, and probably a keyboard assuming you got spoiled somewhere along the line with a mechanical). I bought the laptop while I was finishing up school and needed something I could bring to the clinic, so it was a compromise.

[WaxyMaize]

New God Of War going to be insane.

[SCG]

I like consoles because I can throw a disk in and play. With pc I have to jump thru hoops, go online find out tricks to delete such and such file from code, go to control panel change this change that for damn near ever game. Nothing is plug and play about it. Took me almost 3 days to finally get grand theft auto V to work in offline mode. Straight bs.

Sure you can keep a console that long but the games don't get much better and they are pretty limited by the hardware in the console. If you build the right rig from the beginning you can continue to play the newest games because the current games don't utilize the full horsepower of the rig. Also you will notice that console games are running at lower resolution and just an overall lower quality user experience... because that is all the console Hardware is capable of. You can get some pretty powerful Hardware if you do your research before you buy. Get a decent cooler and you can upgrade your CPU by overclocking it. The first computer I built is now about 10 years old. I can probably upgrade the graphics card and play the newest games on it. Maybe not at the highest resolution but resolution that is equivalent to current console resolution.

Just started GoW3 Remastered for PS4 last night, beautiful game.

[HeavenBeyond]

I'm actually excited for Gran Turismo Sport, it's been a LONG time since Playstation has seen a quality racing game.

[BenBlue]

Back to the product: saw a priceplow post about this on ********, and some brainwashed jackass is trying to say that this is "only 8 ingredients and you're better off going with pre jym which has 15".....and then he proceeds "jyms goal is to change the corrupt industry" blah blah blah....ugh

[VO2Maxima]

Haha, Imagine Kratos taking a Preworkout!

But would he use God of War or something from Olympus Labs?

Heroes of the Storm anyone?

[AMeyer9]

Every racing game is the same. Nerd out to it until you unlock the best car, and congrats. The game is now boring and you'll never play it again.

Heroes of the Storm anyone?

Played once. Went like 8-3. Went back to LoL.

I have ForumSentinel added on there, but neither of us play it ever

[Jammer02xd]

you will love it, give it a shot. there will be plenty of opportunities to win a free tub as well.

I'll keep an eye out for a chance to try it and I'll look into the combination of ingredients. I wouldn't even want a full tub, just a few sample packs would be fine with me.

[CONTROLLED LABS]

unfortunately we will not have sample packets, but we will make sure to get you on board as a logger. when we launch just PM me with a link to this post
