    Worst video card market ever?

    Yeah weird, if you discount the time it was worse, this is indeed the worst time ever. Also, if you don't count the times it was colder, today is the coldest day on record.

    Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

    Will be diving into this one this weekend hopefully. I don't stray from flight sims too often these days, but this one I won't pass up. Really enjoyed the first one and there's not been anything else quite like it IMO and seems this one stayed true to it. That said, I got a laugh out of the...

    ZOTAC introduces 12VHPWR “Safety Light” for GeForce RTX 5090/5080 series

    Getting a bit off-topic here, but that's just a feature of having solenoid packs in the valve body. Outside of some niche applications, they're superior to the older style that had mechanical linkages with regulator & servo valves. Would be pretty dumb to NOT have the electric solenoids put the...

    5070 will reportedly only have 12 GB of VRAM

    This is the most awesome MSFS setup Ive ever seen!

    Yeah it is when you get into the 3rd-party aircraft. There's a reason they can cost $70 just for an add-on aircraft - the amount of systems simulated is part of that price. That said, that pretty much requires a separate 3rd-party program to properly map those things. Programs like Spad.next or...

    Microsoft Recall becomes a dependency for File Explorer in Windows 11 2H24 and is thus mandatory.

    MicroSoft Flight Simulator 2024 to have only 50 gb install size due to cloud streaming of assets

    I'd wager money that you'll still be able to optionally download stuff like airplanes and airports at the very least. Up until a few days ago you had simmers complaining for 4 years about the install size of MSFS2020. They offer an option to lower the install size and the pendulum abruptly swung...

    MicroSoft Flight Simulator 2024 to have only 50 gb install size due to cloud streaming of assets

    Some of you guys are wanting an install size in the petabytes. When MSFS2020 launched they said the streamed world data totaled 2PB. Here's my MSFS 2020 install folders. Left is just MSFS, right is everything including mods. All that and if I fly offline it looks like MSFS X outside a few...

    Ubisoft's The Crew is shutting down 31st March 2024 and will be unplayable after that because it is online only.

    Right, that's how it was done in the past for flight sims via third-partys. It ate up a ridiculous amount of disk space for a relatively small area. My point was demanding laws as some suggested would mean stuff like that would go back to third-party. I doubt anyone is gonna offer a several...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    I think the FOV is what really messes it up for me because I always liked to play a sorcerer. It seemed really pointless when you can't see much further than melee range.

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    I checked this out over the weekend via the free weekend on Steam. Put maybe 2 hours into it, a good chunk of that watching the cinematics, before I uninstalled. That FOV is obnoxious and it really didn't feel like an actual Diablo game but more like a knock off IMO.

    I mean he ignored my post correcting him on the thrusters after going on a rant about it. It's clear at this point he just wants to complain about the game that now says he stopped playing. The way of the internet.

    Starfield

    No it's not, it's thrusters. I use a controller when piloting and holding down the right bumper lets you do exactly what you're talking about and translate up/down/left/right. Holding it down also allows you to turn the ship without changing your trajectory so you can essentially go full...

    A $5 Starfield mod to enable DLSS Frame Generation has been cracked to remove modder's DRM

    Well it's no surprise they're not going to OK or encourage a mod that adds features for the competitor of their game partner, not that this is even a traditional mod in the first place. Don't forget Skyrim had paid mods that was set-up by Bethesda with the creation club though, but people...

    A $5 Starfield mod to enable DLSS Frame Generation has been cracked to remove modder's DRM

    I like the reasoning here that somehow paid mods would price free mods out of existence. It's greed if someone decides to charge for their work, and if they do the altruistic gamer will.. pirate/steal that work, because that apparently isn't greed. 🤨 Wait til you find out about flight sim mods.

    You'll have to edit the StarfieldUpscaler.ini the mod puts in the /mods directory. It even includes a link to show you the list of what number you have to use in the .ini for a given key.

    I got shafted on the free game when I bought my 7800x3d. They had the Jedi Survivor at the time I bought, then by the time they actually sent me the code it was expired when I went to redeem it. I wasn't really all that interested in it anyway so oh well. But then right after that they added...

    Question Is 4070 (non ti) a good option for 1440p gaming?

I would have looked more at a AMD card, but the bulk of my gaming these days is MSFS2020 (yeah, Im one of those ppl) and Nvidia is the way to go for...

    [Rumor] Windows 12 to arrive in fall 2024 with a floating taskbar and a focus on AI

    My main computer use is CAD and gaming - two things Linux really falls flat on. Not really thrilled about all the "features" they keep adding to Windows, I just need an OS to run the programs I want to actually use, so the OS situation as a whole is a solid "meh" from me.
