I have several favorites, but if I had to pick one, it would have to be the GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB. I ran a pair of EVGA cards in SLI and it handled games like Half-Life 2 and the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare with no problems. Close 2nd would have to be the Voodoo II (specifically the...
I haven’t bought an Asus motherboard for close to 20 years (during the Pentium 4 era). It wasn’t due to reliability, but mainly because other brands like Gigabyte or MSI were a better value and had the features I was looking for at the money I was willing to spend. Thankfully, all of the mobos...
Depends on the price / performance ratio, but I'm almost certain no. The 7950 XT/XTX does sound interesting based on the rumored specs, but it's going to cost a pretty penny.
Purchased DIRT Rally 2.0 GOTY Edition ($11.99) and Half-Life Alyx ($29.99). The non-GOTY edition of DIRT Rally 2.0 is also on sale for $4.99, although I think the GOTY version is a better value since it includes all DLC content.
Definitely by no means complete, but these were the ones that were in my desktop rigs since middle school. Unless otherwise noted, I still have those CPUs in a build, or in storage!
Pentium MMX 200MHz (probably sold or donated the pc when I was in high school)
Pentium II 400MHz (sold the...
Agreed. It does get a really repetitive to replay missions and control point tasks just to unlock the bounty mission for the season's target operatives.
I'm still playing it several times a week, in order to complete the Warlords of New York season quests. Part of me wants to know how the Division 2 storyline ends.
Just got back from the Houston Micro Center, and was lucky enough to buy a Sapphire RX 6800 reference version. As far I know, they had 30 or so Asus TUF Gaming RTX 3070s and maybe 10 RTX 3080 cards, but only 5 or 6 RX 6800 cards available this morning. Don’t know if they had any 6800XTs in...
Waiting in line at the Houston Micro Center and I think there’s got to be 60-70 people right now. I’m a little bummed that they don’t have any AIB 6800XT in stock. We’ll see what else they have in stock, but not keeping my hopes up.
Tried to purchase a 6800XT from Best Buy this morning, but it never went out of "Coming Soon" status. Not too surprised about day 1 launch stock though, since I figured the AIBs were more focused on building custom versions of those cards for next Wednesday's (11/25) launch. Probably going to...
Just ordered a factory Refurbished MSI Z370-A Pro from Newegg to go with the 9700k: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813144358?Description=msi z370&cm_re=msi_z370-_-13-144-358-_-Product
Currently on today's Shell Shocker deal for $59.99 after $20 mail-in rebate, with free shipping. Good option...
I think the Mk17 series / Everlasting Gaze would be a good option. Decent damage, good fire rate, and standard 20 rd magazine (expandable to 30 or 40 rounds)
Yup, I'm pretty sad/upset about this change. What made it worse (in my opinion) was that the devs forgot to mention it in their patch notes until TU9 was released (link: https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthread.php/2218056-Title-Update-9-Patch-Notes).
Classic M1A and Baker's Dozen

Played about 6 hours of WoNY thus far, and it's been pretty good. I've already cleared one of the lieutenants and the all of the tasks associated with it. Definitely like the new re-calibration library feature and how the stats compare with the max values.
Difficulty is quite decent for me. I...
Single Player story is pretty good, although there are some references to the Division 1 storyline, so it'll be good to read up if you've never played Div 1 before. I almost always play solo (not a huge fan of PvP in general) and it's a good 50-60 hours worth of gameplay on the story mission...
My experience has been that it will crash a couple of times after the first few minutes after I start the game, then no problems. It's quite random for me too.
Yes, it's pretty friendly. I mainly play solo and I've really enjoyed the game. I agree with jiminator that playing the Dark Zone solo may not be as fun, but I'm speaking from experience in Division 1 (haven't tried the DZ in Division 2 yet, other than the tutorial mission). Good idea that you...
I've clocked in 10 hours of gameplay since Friday night. I've enjoyed it thus far, other than the occasional program crash. I ended up missing the 1st bounty because of it. Anyone run into a similar issue, and any suggestions to fix the problem?
BTW, I just joined the clan -- Forum Name...
After playing most of last night with the beta, I was relatively impressed. Even though I've clocked in a lot of hours on the original Division, I'll probably wait for a sale before purchasing. I hope some of the game crashes I ran into will get fixed, as the same thing happened whenever I play...
