It almost always devolves into this because many just can't have objective discussions about it. I generally don't care that much these days but over the last 12 years or so since Win8 I have seen people genuinely defend the just outright crazy design ideas that Mircrosoft has done with windows...

Windows White Knight Defender Squad in full effect as usual.

Intel published a statement on the issue: https://twitter.com/aschilling/status/1788133702448336902 "Intel is not recommending motherboard manufacturers to use ‘baseline’ power delivery settings on boards capable of higher values" Edit: Toms Hardware link...

Might try Benchmate, it combines a bunch of programs like cinebench for testing systems.

HUB weighs in with a performance and power comparison given the bios updates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHILyzooR58

Yet that violates equality. Why do those of us in PSN account allowed countries have to sign up? They clearly aren't needed to play the game or do crossplay with the ps5.

Amusing screenshot of the game's discord back in Feburary of a customer asking a Community Mangager for the game about PSN linking. https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cl7f5t/screenshot_from_the_helldivers_2_discord/#lightbox

All done within 72 hours or so. A good example of how protest via review "bombing" etc. can indeed work.

It is not just the data for marketing etc., they also want the ability to easily ban you (and possibly your psn account as a whole) for any transgressions in Helldivers2.

Updates via the Helldivers discord, their Community manager: https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cjyll7/some_discord_updates/ It looks like Sony is backing down, at least for those who can't get a PSN account in their country.

Because I don't trust Sony or MS but especially not Sony these days. Nevermind that I cant play the game on ps5 because I don't own one and I dont think it runs on a ps4. Edit to add: When I had to add a MS account for Halo Collection and the Gears Tactics game to play them on Steam, it would...

Bummer. I knew I should have passed on this game or waited for 6 months. Ive not even really played the game beyond the tutorial. I guess I'll wait and see until June 4th when they force players from pre May 6th to link an account. I guess I'll have to figure out if I really want to link my psn...

News is getting worse on this. A tester in China bought up 100+ chips to test. 50% of 13900k are stable in auto profile. Worse numbers for 14th gen. https://wccftech.com/only-5-out-of-10-core-i9-13900k-2-out-of-10-core-i9-14900k-cpus-stable-in-auto-profile-intel-board-partners-stability-issues/

Yeah, I forget when I first saw this in win10. It was at least earlier this year if not last fall. First time I saw it I thought there was a pending windows update or something waiting to go.

From what I've read online, a lot of the transportation stuff is bugged or just wonky. Many said they were often just better off trading goods for food.

Hub cites an interview at Anandtech from 2019: https://www.anandtech.com/show/14582/talking-tdp-turbo-and-overclocking-an-interview-with-intel-fellow-guy-therien Power limit can be 999w and be in spec.

Yes, I know. I'm interested to see if it will be on sale or discount as it were for as much or more this summer. It will probably be the same discount as now. I'm not sure I want to spend even $30 on an EA game right now that looks like it has awhile to go in development. 5-10 hours and lots of...

Intel makes a statement: https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-issues-its-first-statement-in-response-to-13-14th-gen-core-i9-cpu-stability-issues

I think I've talked myself out of this one for now after reading various reviews on Steam and online. Still rough around the edges. I think I'm more interested to see if they put the game back on sale when the summer sales start in June/July. $40 for what I'm seeing now just seems too much. Even...

Thats another city builder I forgot about till recently. Reviews said it is not optimized yet.

Usually hard to tell at release if a dev will be slower on getting updates out on GoG.

You usually can download the older version or versions for awhile after a new patch via the website or launcher.

A bit pricey for early access but not a bad release price for a highly wishlisted game. Sale is on until May 10th at least. I think I'll wait a few days to see how its going with customers and not just early access streamers.

Yet what really led to this problem being discovered or discussed was constant crashing while playing games and pre-caching shaders for games. Not stress tests like cinebench etc..

I read somewhere that there is a mod or mods that look just as good but only use 1-2GB of space for the high res stuff.

Benefit of the GoG version is you can download the installers for the old version just in case. I've never really played FO4 much, so I started up a game on Steam. It will be interesting to see the differences now. I didn't bother with the HD textures, didin't seem worth 58GB install size plus...

FYI, H forum thread on this in the cpu section with more info: https://hardforum.com/threads/13900k-out-of-video-memory-or-bsod-during-shader-compilation-in-two-ue5-games.2031265/

But what about Ash? For your meme education: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmVWD0uCyyY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzFxl3mj9Fw

We'll bang, ok?

Finished? Eh, spent 20+ hours in. Balatro, a rogue-like poker based card game. It is fun for 5-10 hours but beyond the basic difficulty it becomes all about random joker card drops in the store between rounds.

Yeah, Steam can be very odd ball with downloads and patches. SSD drives can vary for a number of factors, how full they are and dram cache, usually.

I thought the main slow down was actually video ram and gpu compute because it was drawing all the citizens body parts even when you're zoomed out?

So far the previews are very positive along with what I've seen streamers playing. For Mack (worthabuy linked above) to sign its praises is a good indicator. As long as its not a crazy price I'll likely pick it up on GoG.

From what I've seen in reddit reports, most aren't stating their gpus. Those that do list it, it is a 4090 and a few 3090 cards. Most of the reports seem to be issues on the i9 chips than the i7 chips and only 13/14th gen stuff. I would still test the heck out of a 14900k to check for...

Welcome to Blizzard these days. Overwatch2 is pretty bad now with AI bots handling all reports and it being slow to appeal if at all possible.

Just checked my account, same thing. It is listed under "inactive games". I'm pretty sure I got the crew from some free give away a year or two ago. Never played it.

Intel investigating the problem: https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-13th-14th-core-raptor-lake-gaming-instability-is-now-being-investigated and Nvidia jumps in, tells 13/14th gen users to talk to Intel if having stability problems...

Its all about the =, equality.

Like the pictures show, just look at the story lines, face animations etc. in the Division games. Lots of low key grrl power stuff in Div2 for sure.

All three of those companies offer far far more services than a table at a flea market. If the flea market was running a credit card processor and concession stands with free drinks, maybe that would be a similar comparison.
