Dads own fault if he has used the card to make purchases on the system before natwest will not see it as unusual, xbox has parental controls my son can't make purchases without me signing in and it's not a complicated process to setup. i'd assume PS has similar things

They all have some sort of parental locking, Nintendo's being the most comprehensive.

I share your view that its the dad's fault, no way in hell would I allow my card to be linked to my kids account, they buy credit top ups and that's it

I could make an account and add my partners card without her knowing in minutes. Xbox being the easiest of all consoles to do it. Not all parents are tech savvy enough to enable proper protection.

Apparently the new 8 core coffee lake chip will work on current 300 series mobos -

I can't se how it can be a surprise. As normally they work on 2 generations of chipsets, and there is a difference in pinout on z370 vs Z270, to make it ready for more core.

But Intel still win, as it's just the same cpu +2 cores = low development cost.

BIOS tools have revealed that Z370 boards already have a setting for 8-cores.

So the Z390s released are just rebranded 370s?

Yep, Intel has pretty much confirmed Z370 is being re-branded as Z390, So everything is the same, Just a name change, Meaning 8 core coffee lake chips should work fine in existing Z370 mobos -

Probably TitanXp performance but at a lower price point and more efficient. I'd still wager though that it'll be around $800-900 in price because Nvidia and GDDR6.

Personally I think it's a little distasteful, RGB when done right can look great but on the power cable, Nah, Getting into the cheap and tacky area now.

This and that stupid RGB ATX power cable.

I really don't understand why so many people think this is such an issue. It's a product like anything else. If you don't like it, don't buy it. You can whinge about it, sure, that's what the Internet is for, but some seem so frustrated by RGB that it's almost like it's an affront to PC hardware and PC enthusiasm as a whole. I just see like anything else I don't like.
