Also a lot of stuff about how women are all evil pieces of shit that will never love the reader because they only want the reader for their attention and whatnot. Without going to read it myself(because I won't) it sounds like a meeting ground for the people who really drink in the messages from blogs about female solipsism and hypergamy. I've had some interesting conversations about it, but there are people who take it to an extreme, and also a ton of dudes that aren't aware of the hypocrisy of their actions in reaction to the discussion. Then there's also dudes who just use it as an excuse to hide from insecurities and character flaws, because hey, they pickup any woman they want! | ||

The 270 is the successor to 7850, but even the 270 still out performs 7870 in some games as well. the new r9 series are a nice price/performance update. | ||

Looks like I was mistaken on the 7850 replacement. You're right that they 270x is specced out to be competitive with 7870 GHz. But I picked up a 7950 a few months ago for $200 so spending $230 on a 7870/660 competitor is questionable for price/performance. Also, http://i.imgur.com/krz55uT.png has a Z77 motherboard without a K processor. I guess you keep the ability to drop a K in there at some point but by the time you upgrade intel will probably have yet another generation of processors. If you're not going to overclock you might as well get a H77 mobo and save money | ||

Realistically it doesn't have much to do with those things, because the vast majority of the internet PUAs are just dudes who had(or still have) insecurities when they were younger and vent it by 'mastering' the art of bedding women, and then start complaining about the lack of relationship quality women as their new hurdle to clear(having moved on from just getting women to 'appreciate' them as former nice guys or nerds or fat or whatever their poison used to be). This is hardly all encompassing, not every dude who just runs through women is a formerly insecure kid who is exacting some kind of revenge or making a power play on women, but it's probably a pretty solid portion. I brought those above topics up because a lot of men use them as a sort of excuse for their behavior, in a sort of 'women made me do it,' exasperated battle-cry. | ||

Though I wouldn't consider it a "real" 7950. The greatest trait of the 7950 was that a huge chunk of them were binned 7970's. So with a lot of them you could oc them near the oc level of 7970's but save like 150 bucks. The sapphire 7950 that was on sale were pretty much binned 7950's and were voltage locked. That means no ocing available | ||
