Lol no, not in any game in the last 5 years I can think of except perhaps MOBAs like League or Dota. If it has the proper output you could run Windows in 4k, but good luck playing any games like that.

$720 is a actually a good price, but $1300 is slightly insane for those specs, even for a prebuilt computer. You're lucky you got it for such a deal. (I checked some part prices and figured it would cost $800 - $900 to build a similarly specced computer depending on processor choice and quality of mobo/psu etc)

I've just noticed that the few times I come out from lurking is to post stuff about computer parts. I should go outside.

I never specified when it would support 4k.
Yes I know it would for running just the os, but less likely on games for sure because yea
I know how things work :/
I've been looking at this computer like it only costs about 220 because that's what I would have to pay (because grad present.)

That's actually not a bad idea, throw a 750 Ti or a 960 in there and it would likely be pretty decent.

I should also design a studio but I'd have to move out first.
I would have a pretty cool studio.
It would be a fruity loops studio.
(Bad joke!)



So my grad party is today. Home alone right now preparing.
The house is a mess. I'm literally never home. It's just a bunch of my parents stuff.
But my parents are stressed that I haven't cleaned anything.
Progress is slow because it's their stuff and idk where it all goes.
Let me repeat. They're mad that I haven't cleaned their mess.
Wut
Anyway the party is in less than 3 hours. Hope it goes well. And by "it" I mean the cleaning party because my parents really know how to freak.
I'm also hoping it doesn't rain again. I want to do an outdoors performance. I'll try to video for you guys.

oh yes. when i first joined. those days I could say i was an annoying little shit boy who wanted to get fandom famous and fast. yea.... at least i am not annoying like that anymore. (hopefully)


anyway, the party went decent. my parents weren't even around for the performance :/
but thats also kind of a plus since it rained again so we had to set up in my basement. which meant indoor performance and my mom would have flipped a shin dig about that being too loud
but no parents = no volume limit
no limit = heck yea dude
the performance was rough at first. the drummer I was playing wth had a hard time staying on the tempo for the first minute but he got way better as soon as th chorus hit. We maybe had one practice run together ever doing this so for the absolute minimal lack of practice, it went good. Then I played 3 other pieces alone on my launchpad and everyone seemed to enjoy it.
But then, I revealed that I wasnt actually lpaying the last song at all and I just hit play on FL studio because I never prepped for that song. lol so yea

*gives hug through Internet*







I didn't realize that it's possible to have a nose bleed to last over an hour.

I literally got one randomly while on my PC. Luckily it didn't land on my clothes or anything but just my hand.
But then I plugged my nose with tp to block it and stuff. It stopped. But I left the paper in for some time while I was still on my PC. After about an hour of interesting articles and you tubing around, I removed the paper and my nose was bleeding way faster! Crazy right.

So now I plugged it up again and am laying down in a position to the blood would go back inside my body. :/
Weird I wish it would stop. I want to go to sleep but I'm too worried I'll get blood over my favorite mlp blankets. :/

FIRST AID ACSII TO THE RESCUE
OKAY SO FIRST OF ALL
lean over a sink, DO NOT LEAN BACKWARDS OR LAY DOWN WITH A BLOOD NOSE, the blood can go down your throat and choke you causing suffocation.
Once you're leaning over the sink feel the bridge of your nose for the bit right where the bone of your skull ends, pinch SUPER FUCKING HARD HERE, holding both nostrils closed but maintaining the main pressure at the point mentioned, hold for 10-20 minutes. Your fingers will hurt but keep doing it for that time, it will allowing the blood to clot, you may feel blood and stuff go down your throat, attempt to spit it out while still home your nose.
This works 100% of the time, and is what I use when I get my blood noses (I have a condition that causes sudden and severe blood noses).
Hope I'm not too late.

So, I probably did the absolute worst thing for my bloody nose.
I was leaning over a sink so yay for that. But I plugged my nose and literally kind of just went to bed because I was tired. lol
I didn't die!!!! Yay

Aw man acsii, i have that too. it happens like once every 3rd month. feels like I have some sort of nosemenstruation. I generally just tend to clog that shit up with toiletpaper for a few minutes, then it passes, but i had no idea you could do that pinchy thing. I used to just stand over the sink and wait for it to be over, but the cleanup was always super annoying.

It used to happen to me once every like 6 months. But I have had this happen to me at least 6 times in the lest 3 weeks already. I hope it's nothing serious because that would kind of suck. I just don't want it to ruin anything I really like (pony shirts, bed sheets, headphones, etc)
I had it happen to me while I was driving. I had to pull over. I don't have any tissues to I used a greasy wax paper that came in a pizza box. (I went to a fast food joint and cleaned in their bathroom then took like a handful of tissues in case it happened again.)
Happened while I was pressure washing at work. Every asked about it and I said I got in a fist fight with an eagle.
And happened to me at home 3 times all while on the computer or watching television.
And happened at a grad party. :/ blood on the deck made some people very qweezey

Not sure if it counts but the worst nosebleed I've ever had happened when I was 10 after I accidentally ski'd full speed into a sign that said 'slow down'. Sign was at face level and my nose took the brunt of it, probably the most I've ever bled in my life.
I'm not here anymore, but if you want you can still just call me Mr. BigBagelBoggle!

And saying something along the lines of "stupid fucking nose" and getting super angry at everyone?

I used to get random nosebleeds all the time when I was little but I burned my veins in my nose and I haven't had a single random nosebleed ever since :p
10/10 would definitely recommend!
Can't be very expensive either since it literally takes like 30 seconds with a proper burner, but Sweden has free healthcare so I don't know.
