I wonder when review sites will move on from 1080p as a standard for benchmarking CPU performance / scaling in games. I know why 1080p is used, it’s just funny to see graphs scaling out to 1000 FPS for some games. “When looking at the $2,000 AMD 11950x5d in 1080p, you can see the 7322.8 FPS for...

That was a good read, thank you for digging up and sharing this! Maybe a good approach would be to pick up a newer PSU and have it on standby while I test the old one. If I run into issues, swap it. If I don’t, then just return the new one.

I have a working and in good condition Silencer MK III 1200 which I bought for a build back in 2015. It has worked beautifully through upgrades, including 2 and 3 way sli setups, but the most recent cpu and gpu I’ve paired with it are a 9700K and single 2080 Ti (both overclocked on custom water...

I didn’t bother to read the whole thread so sorry if this is a repeat. I think another potential generational difference may be driven by the fact that every game we grew up on looked like ass when compared to modern games / graphics. If there was any change you could make to improve the...

Commenting only to call these maths into question. For shame!

Wasn’t on a single credit but I remember beating the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game. When I was 7 or 8, my mom worked at a pizza place that had an arcade attached. On days I had to go with her, her coworkers would give me cup fulls of free arcade tokens to use while they...

While this is a funny analogy, I gotta disagree, lol. Plenty of people can and routinely do control or limit themselves with regards to gambling. The guy you’re describing seems to be on the extreme opposite end of that spectrum. 😛

Im not sure, I think the last time I played was maybe a couple weeks after launch.

I got bored of it pretty quickly as well. It was fun at first but after the 4th story dungeon area I felt like I’d seen all the game had to offer gameplay wise and nothing else really hooked me. While the combat felt good and I enjoyed being able to switch classes at will, the loot system...

But it’s got more cores man! Good deal though (even if it went quick), thanks for resharing!

I’ve been playing pretty much exclusively in coop and yes it is very fun! Only issues my wife and I had were during the first week getting connected to servers (but we could still play coop over lan).

Same here, and agreed on the positive changes! The Tiny Tina expansion for BL2 was my wife and I’s favorite Borderlands content by far, but Wonderlands is on pace to dethrone it.

Only times I’ve been frustrated over compatibility or odd game behavior on pc was due to 1) a faulty component, 2) SLI on Nvidia cards, or 3) poor driver support on early ATI / AMD cards. If anything, it feels like those types of issues have become less common in PC gaming over recent years...

Just FYI, I can confirm that the .ini tweak to reduce the thickness of the black outlines on various models/objects in BL3 also works in Wonderlands! I copied the steps for BL3 (from a Reddit post) below and just swapped out the game folder: - Go to C\Users\Username\Documents\My Games\Tiny...

I turn 40 next year but have had a similar history with gaming and feeling guilty (or sometimes depressed in my case). I’ve taken 1 - 2 year breaks from gaming, last one being shortly after my son was born (he’s 6 now). In each case there was something else important going on in my life and I...
