dismal [diz-muh l]
adjective
1. causing gloom or dejection; gloomy; dreary; cheerless; melancholy: dismal weather.
2. characterized by ineptness or lack of skill, competence, effectiveness, imagination, or interest; pitiful: Our team played a dismal game.
3. Obsolete. disastrous; calamitous. unlucky; sinister.
DIRGE [durj]
noun
1. a funeral song or tune, or one expressing mourning in commemoration of the dead.
2. any composition resembling such a song or tune in character, as a poem of lament for the dead or solemn, mournful music: Tennyson's dirge for the Duke of Wellington.
3. a mournful sound resembling a dirge: The autumn wind sang the dirge of summer.
4. Ecclesiastical. the office of the dead, or the funeral service as sung.
dismalDirge is the name chosen by a good friend of mine. This is not only his online screen name, he also has some art listed under this name. Under his permission I will share some of his dark art and literature here in conjunction with this build log. Now, on with the good stuff.
This build will be using the newly released AMD Ryzen processor. The ZEN line of CPU's is a low power high performance option and I'm very excited to get my hands on my first sample. This will be primarily a gaming build but will also need to do a fair amount of video editing. For this reason we have opted to go with the Ryzen 7 1700 8 core 16 thread CPU. He games at a 1080p resolution and would like to be able to run all settings at max. I have selected a GTX 1070 8GB GPU to manage this task.
Stay tuned as parts should start rolling in early next week. With that here is the first piece of literature written by dismalDIRGE.
