Northern Ontario Men's Provincial Curling Championship
The Northern Ontario Curling Association (NOCA) Men's Provincial Championship is the Northern Ontario provincial championship for men's curling. The winner represents Team Northern Ontario annually at the Tim Hortons Brier. Northern Ontario has been represented at the Brier since 1927 despite not actually being a province. This historical fact has guaranteed Northern Ontario a separate team from Ontario in every national championship except the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.

gollark: In any case, this may be irrelevant, because new CPUs will be out in 1-3 years.
gollark: Well, GPUs are meant to run on 16 PCIe lanes though apparently work on 8.
gollark: (Ryzen is better anyway)
gollark: So I think what it'd do is either not work or bring your GPU down to 8 lanes.
