    Full System or Video Card to my GF

    I could pick up a used H270 mobo and a new power supply and move everything into a new case. Drop my 3060 ti in and a faster SSD. 1440 display. I think the 7700 and 3060 ti can co-exist reasonably well at that resolution. And then just get a new video card for my 5900x system. These 6950 XT...

    Full System or Video Card to my GF

    I've had the rig in my signature for a few years now. Still running fine although the frequent increase in temp/AIO fan speed noise is somewhat annoying. From what I've read that typical of the Vermeer chips. I wonder if the new Intel stuff does the same. I prefer things to be as quiet as...

    If Apple made a new console.

    They may have a shot if they don't call it the fucking "Pippen". lol

    What are you nerds playing this weekend?

    4E D&D session for a homebrew campaign that started in Feb 2010. I write all my content on the PC in my sig so I hope that counts as "PC gaming". :-)

    FF VII Remake Combat

    After watching some videos and knowing that I can switch back and forth when not in combat, I'm just going to try them and see what's comfortable.

    I should have avoided this thread. There goes $40.

    Anyone here collect classic/vintage PC games?

    Oh man, I had some serious hours in Archon, M.U.L.E, and Mail Order Monsters. My reaction to the EA logo was a lot different back then. lol

    Anyone here collect classic/vintage PC games?

    Got the white C64C, 1541, 1802 monitor for Christmas 1986. Bard's Tale was the first game I finished on it. I was 14 years old. Man, things were a lot simpler back then.

    FF VII Remake Combat

    I bought FF7 on release day for the PS1 back in 1997. Had a lot of hours in the game and my memory card died. Progress lost and I didn't have it in me at the time to start over. So now we have the Remake. Played the demo, bought the game, and just did the free upgrade to the PS5 version. I was...

    X570 USB Issues: Keep or Exchange for Intel

    I did see the good news this past week about AMD supposedly fixing the issue with a forthcoming AGESA update. I still haven't built my new rig yet. With this recent Microsoft Exchange zero-day issue, I've worked a lot of extra hours the last ten days and have just been out of gas when I'm not...

    X570 USB Issues: Keep or Exchange for Intel

    Why would you guess that? I never mentioned PCIe 4.0 and it was not a major deciding factor in my purchasing decision. Intel will get there. Yeah, that would be ideal. But not realistic. Storage, RAM, video card coming over from my 3700x box that I need for remote work. And days off are all but...

    A Plague Tale Innocence

    I played it at 1440 with everything cranked on my 2070 S and it was fine. I love this game. A lot of people shit on the gameplay but the graphics, story, music, sound....it all comes together really well.

    X570 USB Issues: Keep or Exchange for Intel

    Worst case I'll sell the AMD motherboard and CPU and go Intel.
