    Best True Double Slot GPU

    A reference 7900XTX should fit in that case and have very little room to spare. Specs say that you have 12.20 Inches Long + 6.5" for Cooler, the 7900XTX Reference models are 11.3 Inches Long and 4.7 Inch Cooler. 1080Ti (reference) is a bit smaller and slimmer AFAIK (Technically the shroud on...

    I can't speak to other industries. I do know people that don't run into the petty bullshit I have seen in my life. Corporate America is one thing, that's its own Ethics violation... Though I am working for a fairly conscious global company (as a contractor) that cares more than most. It all...

    14900KS coming with new boards same 1700 socket TechYES video

    Is this even worth upgrading to? I'm using a 13900K, looks like marginal frequency improvement, higher power draw, some under the hood tweaks. Intel mentioning in the disclaimers they can't protect against vulnerabilities (thought that was cute, likely means a shitload of microcode patches en...

    Yeah, that's a nice and quiet admission that their original power connector actually was the piece of shit that most of us knew it was. They did something like this back in the 2080Ti era where they released a shitload of defective silicon and lied about their failure rates. I think it was...

    Diablo IV: System Requirements

    You will be fine. I was able to run it on an HP with an AMD 5700x and it's 8 Core Integrated Radeon Card at 30+ FPS at 900P, stock settings. It will probably run perfectly on your laptop at medium to high/max settings

    I never really got into D3. I think I only played D1&2 for Story and the expansions. Never paid attention to the Paragon stuff and the Seasons. This is my first taste of it.

    Pretty sure a line dev stated that everyone has to start over with their characters. Kinda pisses me off seeing as I have been grinding away to level 85 and the thought to starting a new character just to play in Season 1 really chaps my ass.

    the Sorc is squishy. they can deliver high DPS and that's not the issue, they can't take damage. You get melted by almost everything in the game.

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    So, the Sorc still sucks. It's been so nerfed that while you can get a 20 Second Lillith Kill you get brutalized by mobs and mobs of Hero Enemies. It has no Armor buffs, just resistances that you can get from paragon that aren't as valuable as Armor. Plus they stripped out the 3rd Enchantment...

    You also have to be more mindful of the Rares you get from random loot drops. I started noticing in WT4 that I was often getting better Rares than Legendaries even prior to the last patch. It's just that the frequency that they dropped was stupid low. Now, I get something decent every time I...

    I have been pleasantly surprised after the patches. Sorcerer still seems a bit weak but I'm gradually gearing up and starting to chew bubblegum while kicking ass and it's nice.

    Yes! I found this out when I had a Legendary and kitted it out and then randomly saw an item in the shop that was Rare that had better base stats than the Legendary item I just fixed up. Bought it and added the aspect I wanted to it and it's changed the game for me!

    I'm still playing and I have an Ice Sorcerer at level 78. After the Nightmare Dungeon Buffs I was able to start finding pieces of armor and gear here and there. So, something changed for the better. I can Solo Tier 21-24 Nightmare Dungeons in WT4. However, anything past 21 has an increasing...

    It's ok. I did the same but at least we get the season pass with the price level. Wartales... I picked it up early in the development and it was broken and linear, if it's good now I will revisit it.

    I'm amazed how many of their dungeons they have reused. The Art style for most of their dungeons is all used over and over again. There were basic games 10-15 years ago that randomized the dungeons. I think it was called Fate... every dungeon was totally random. It was a cheap game too, I...

    I'm on the edge of 73. Hitting WT4 World bosses and Legion events and the drops are garbage. I managed to get a pair of Rare's that are better than anything Legendary or unique that has dropped and it's underwhelming. Just happy I was able to push em into Legendary territory after imprinting...

    OK, that's solid advice. I already have the skulls in all my jewelry. I will drop Glass Cannon as you suggest. I'm a bit underwhelmed with the game after all the hours I have dumped into it. It's not like other games I've dumped hundreds or thousands of hours into and I walked away...

    So, I reached WT4 last night at level 71-72. Barely made it through the Capstone but had a level 56 guy to draw aggro a bit and managed to beat the boss even rezing him a few times. When I got to WT4, I was utterly underwhelmed. The volume of drops is not better, it's worse. The legendaries...

    Aside from the joke I totally didn't get (TY for pointing that out), I did figure this out and I now know why I shouldn't have been just filling up one board. I'm well into the midpoints of the next one (after I rotated it) and my Ice Mage is disgusting. I soloed all night after work and...

    It would be better if they actually gave you a choice of the protagonist like Shepard in Mass Effect... But few ever learn and it would cost actual money to use 2 actors and mo cap them both.

    I've been able to equalize the losses with ticks on the Paragon Board... But dammit, I should be able to have good items that make getting the paragon points all that more valuable. Anyone know what happens when you fill up the paragon board? Does this trigger a new chart above? I'm almost...

    I made this mistake. I should have just hung onto the old gear and never updated my stuff. I was able to imprint 1-2 sets but the other already imprinted items I could not extract the imprint which makes me very unhappy. Yeah, having skills triggering at levels 7-9 was simply amazing. My raw...

    I am well aware of what the stats do. However, on a sorcerer (as Armenius said) the other stats are nearly worthless for the class aside from Dex being a requirement for certain Glyphs on the Paragon Board. The Sorcerer needs items with Willpower (Mana Regen) and Intelligence (Spell Damage)

    It's not just you. This is clearly an artificial limitation imposed by patches. That's why you've never seen a better weapon... They, largely, stopped doing attribute buffs that made sense for the specific classes. Like on sorcerer I get strength and dex instead of Intelligence and...

    The Sorcerer drains mana in about 3 activations even at level 52... Clearly the tiny amount of mana they give you is by design to really try to force you to party up. Soloing boss fights can make me scream at my screen sometimes. There are a couple claustrophobic boss fights that spam enemies...
