    Dirt Rally 2.0 on sale on Steam

    I use both a Logitech G27 wheel and an XBSX|S controller, and I gotta say, the controller actually works out surprisingly well. I only have the base game.

    Dirt Rally 2.0 on sale on Steam

    Fantastic game. I paid a similar price a few years ago. Definitely worth it at this price. Yyyeeeaaahhh...

    7900 XTX with 25 Waterblocks on eBay

    I really appreciate UV builds since I'm a big fan of UV-reactive stuff, and no one really uses (or makes) UV PC stuff anymore. I still use blacklights in my PCs to this day (but no UV-reactive cables, components, slots or brackets anymore).

    New NVIDIA control panel now in beta

    nVidia can do what it wants, so long as I get to continue using Sedona (aka nVidia Control Panel) without issue. It's bad enough that after nVidia drivers switched to DCH, Sedona became a Windows Store app. But yeah I just hope Sedona continues to exist as-is, and remains available for us to...

    AMD Publishes FSR 3 Source Code

    Yeah man!!! This was my favorite version of AA before I experienced the wonder that is DLAA. I used to be a fan of FXAA despite its flaws, and I never really liked TAA. But SMAA is some good shiznit! I agree that not enough games have it as an option. I still see FXAA around sometimes, and TAA...

    Broken M.2 slot. Safe to boot?

    And I was really hoping there would be. Cuz after reading "the last thing the previous owner did was to rip out his M.2 drive" and seeing those pics, I most definitely have questions.

    7800x3d build failure - *now working

    So what I'm hearing is Micro Center really fucking needs to expand out more. Long ago I too had to make a long drive to get to one. Now it's a 15-20min drive. And there are multiple in my state. I think the next closest one is 45min away. Kinda shitty they don't ship. It just plain sucks that...

    Which controller are you using for PC? (xbox?)

    Actually PS Vita is a system I don't have a lot of experience with. It's on my list of systems to get. I soft-modded my PSP back in the late 2000s, and for years I've been wanting to do the same with a PS Vita. But yeah I can't comment on the PS Vita's DPad as I've never really gotten to try it.

    Which controller are you using for PC? (xbox?)

    The controllers I currently have available for use on PC (and do actually use on PC) are: - Logitech G27 racing wheel controller - 2x wired Microsoft Xbox 360 controllers (one was decommissioned due to damage sustained when a friend was borrowing it long-term years ago) - 3x wireless Microsoft...

    When to replace that older AIO?

    I have a Corsair H100i purchased in September 2014 that has seen daily, all-day use since. Gonna be 10 years this Fall. Easily lasted nearly twice as long as the 5-year warranty. I probably won't be re-using it with any future systems though.

    Post Pics of your SLI or Crossfire Builds (I know its dead)

    I still use blacklights in my PCs (four in my current one), but I no longer use UV-reactive cables. I never did get around to using UV-reactive fans or paint. I always said if I ended up doing a custom watercooling setup that I'd have UV-reactive dye in the water (or UV-reactive water tubes)...

    [Steam] Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice 90% off @ $2.99 till 1-24-24

    Two of my friends played through part of the game, but never finished it. They gave praise to many aspects, but not the gameplay. They said it was very cinematic but didn't have enough real actual gameplay, and the combat needed to be deeper. I forgot what else they said. I've never played the...

    Cheap but decent 120mm fans for upside down mounting?

    I bought my Corsair H100i in September 2014. It has seen daily, all-day use for well over 9 years, and it is still running just fine. The warranty was for 5 years, and it easily lasted almost twice that long.

    Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer

    I always appreciate it when games are announced and shown off literally the same year they come out. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Depends on the individual game. 8th-gen and 9th-gen Xboxes natively support keyboard and mouse, and you can use them with some games, like Halo MCC. But...

    Yeah I been here since 2000 or 2001. I know I was on this site before I built my Athlon Tbird machine. Didn't join the forums until 2007, but I had been lurking for years before that. Gonna have to agree with that.

    how many guys in this forum are IT pros?

    I had been meaning to get my A+ cert back in the 2000s. By the time I did it in 2013, new rules were in effect, and the new ones being issued had expiration dates. Mine expired back in 2016. That's what happens when you procrastinate. My friend who is an Oracle database admin has one of the A+...

    How would treat your PSU if you experience this behavior? Not turning on at all when a bad cable is connected?

    I'm surprised you didn't know this. Things have been this way for a very long time. People have been complaining about the lack of standardization for this for a long time. Would be nice if it happened, but it's never going to happen. Yes. For example, if you need replacement Seasonic cables...
