Starfield: Way worse than Fallout or Skyrim. Even when ignoring the many QOL problems (seriously it is the same faults that have been fixed by modders in their last games - to go modding site, sort by dl's, implement top20 fixes. Then enable as an option, if the devs feel that strongly about...

On a 3080 now and I'll wait for 50xx. Gaming at 4k@120 (LG CX) so I do want as much gpu🐎 as possible. This time I won't wait forever on a cheap xx90, that won't happen 🙄

Bonus info for Corsairs 7000 series, the doors are reversible. I don't care for glass either but also found the selection of large cases with the layout I wanted, almost non existent.

It looks like we'll have to wait until the MLA tech from larger G models is implemented in the smaller C models. Review: LG G3 (MLA OLED) And preferably with moar Hz for the FPS'sss 😉

Is he going to lose some fps? Sure. But knee cap it? It doesn't seem so: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-rtx-4090-pci-express-scaling/29.html That was just pcie 3 vs pcie 4. Going from cpu gen to cpu gen he'll lose a bit more, but less than I thought:

Take a look at the Asus Proart X670E, it meets your pricerange and has USB4 and 10Gb ethernet. So it seems pretty future proof.

I wouldn't, but then there people queuing up at night to get one. And in the words of the BOFH "the only thing you should be queuing for at midnight is a kebab."

As I'm trying to max out 4k@120hz, I think I'll wait a bit and see how the partner cards do. Also interested in how much of a difference there is down to the 4080 and the not so 4080. I'm getting the custom loop itch again (haven't build one since socket 939 and gtx 7800), so in the end I might...

From Asus's tech spec, in the notes section: *2 M.2_2 and M.2_3 support 44-Lane CPU (Intel® Core™ i7 9000 X-Series CPU and above). So I read that as there aren't enough pcie lanes on the 7 series.

The following is purely based on information from Steve's latest video. While the PSU business was 20% of the revenue, it made almost 50% of the profits. So yes, a whole lot of people will lose their jobs and a massive amount of knowledge is leaving. But they'll carry on making a product line...

Ohh Galaxies brings back memories and not the fond kind. I got into the beta and was all ready and fired up. But was so empty and had zero sense of direction. It felt like a cardboard cutout or a generic bland mmorpg with Star Wars theme music.

Nice, just be careful with the handling. I had the wife helping, and one of her rings left a light 10" scratch in the screen coating.

Yeah and in a few days they'll say: In fact forget the minecraft.

+ 1 for Deus Ex and Halflife. Max Payne - but Max deserves to stay retired, so I'm not sure how they should proceed.
