    Forza Horizon 5 (Mexico)

    They still haven't fixed the frame rate issues. It's just not using my GPU and I'll get dips in to the 40's and 50's while racing.

    Harbor freight 20% off anything this weekend

    They come packaged quite well. That 73" one should come on a pallet as well. You'll need a pallet jack to move it around, it's not light.

    They have some products that are on another level for the price.

    Harbor freight 20% off anything this weekend

    Harbor freight jacks are the deal. I don't know any shops that don't use them.

    Harbor freight 20% off anything this weekend

    It's no SnapOn or MAC, but for a home shop it's more than adequate. I already have a 60" SnapOn roller cab, just needed a little more storage. Wasn't about to drop $1500 for a similar SnapOn box. I will say that I was extremely impressed with HF's Icon boxes. I'd put them on par with my...

    Yup, they are there to protect the company from any employee that would do the company harm.

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    You do know sexual harassment, discrimination, bigotry, intimidation and abuse are against labor laws. Even more so in Canada. The company is liable for that if found at fault. Linus, not directly, but LMG will get a huge stain on their record for it. It would also be public information.

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    Linus will never accept responsibility. His ego is larger than his care to give a damn. Even in his last vid he deflected and covered. He's a chode. Everyone is beneath him, in his mind. He deserves no mercy on being a chode. And if even 25% of what Madison said is true he deserves to be fined...

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    I won't even entertain an interview with a potential employer unless they disclose, at minimum, a salary range for the position. I've turned down interviews because of it. I'm not wasting my time unless I know the position is within a financial range that makes it worth pursuing. Most people are...

    AMD patent reveals complex chip design

    I'd imagine they are more concerned with yield per wafer. At least at this point. Packaging efficiency and effectiveness can be improved. Starting with a high yield of components makes that easier.

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    Kyle gave zero eff's about calling out people or companies from a purely journalistic standpoint. And so does Steve. Which is why I like(d) their content over others. J2C is great for water cooling content / how-to's and design ideas. Since he gravitates more towards the custom side of things...

    I actually submitted my resignation 3 weeks ago due to a toxic manager. I had nothing lined up, didn't even start looking, was just fed up with db's toxicity. The day prior on our team call he threatened all of our jobs with a "if you don't like it we can part ways". DEAL! Sent my resignation the next morning. SVP calls me, who I've known for all these years, asking WTF. Tell him the deal, he offers me to work under this other dude I've worked with for 11 years, plus a raise. Effective immediately. Uhh, sure. That works. The DB manager was written up. Then DB manager has another team call last week and tells everyone that I quit and was rehired by SVP. I find out, hit up HR, immediate termination for sharing personal HR related information. What a rollercoaster.

    I feel you. 11 years and still in the same position. I can't complain, I have a metric ton of flexibility, plus I work from home, and they keep stacking the raises on me. I'm making more than at least 2 of the people above me. Is what it is.

    dick is fine, so is the deck...when I say launched, it picked the grill up high enough to clear the rail and sent it about 30 yards in to my back yard

    Ryzen 4 Reviews Are Out.

    New platform prices are always high when they first come out. X570, DDR4-3600(and up) were stupid expensive when they came out for Zen2+ (3000 series). Just have to wait for B650 to come out and DDR5 prices to come down a bit for the market to equalize. Bleeding edge will always have bleeding...

    Ryzen 4 Reviews Are Out.

    Anyone that primarily games has zero reason to buy a 7000 series. A comparable, or mostly faster, gaming system with a 5800X3D will be hundreds of dollars cheaper to build with more readily available parts. AMD also said that the 5800X3D will not be the last X3D part on AM4. Which leaves room...

    Ryzen 4 Reviews Are Out.

    Basically, if all you do is game, and are still on an older 3000 series Zen3, then the 5800X3D is the best bang for the buck upgrade. Even a whole Zen3 system will be hard to beat for the money. If you just need to smash through productivity at breakneck speed then the 7950X is the king of the...

    Anyone else playing this? It's free on Steam right now for the closed beta. Just apply for instant access. Breakdown: It's like PUBG, but with crafting and abilities. The shooting mechanics are 100% PUBG, so if you need to warm up just use PUBG's training mode. The crafting is for weapons...

    NVIDIA’s Miner vs. AMD’s Whiner - CES 2022

    why is the focus of mining always on ETH? It's only 1 piece of the 1000 piece puzzle of mining. And it's not the most profitable coin to mine right now. Those 4 GB AMD cards will get bought up by miners just the same to be used for other coins.

    New World Amazon Studios MMORPG

    They need to unfuck these queues. 2000 slots per server is not going to cut it. How do you sell millions of copies of a game and only have space for a few hundred thousand players? I was lucky and got in yesterday at 8:00 AM, but was kicked at 11:00. Only to find I was 608 in queue which took...

    New World Amazon Studios MMORPG

    Most games are like that. 1 week of beta, then 2 days later the game is released with nothing fixed. While I didn't run in to many issues in New World, I'd imagine they are not only fixing bugs. But, also fixing some story line and PvP issues as well. They got a lot of feedback to sift through.

    Maybe reinstall the game or check for overall system stability? I'm on a similar setup and have had no such crashes in 30 hours of game play.

    AMD issues guidelines to retailers to prevent Radeon RX 6000 scalping

    I'm a firm believer that both Nvidia and AMD are selling through back channels to Chinese mining card manufacturers since the profit margin is higher. Imagine going to Nvidia and saying you'll take every die they can sell you at 10 points over what they're sold to AIB's for. The mining cards...

    After Ampere Launch Survey

    Waiting for Big Navi launch and reviews. That and EKWB to release blocks for AIB 3080's. Really whatever I buy will need to have available waterblocks. I feel like if Big Navi can come within 10-15% of a 3080 for less money I'll go that route.

    Call of Duty streamer accidentally reveals he's cheating, loses his Twitch channel

    They've made cheating on PC too easy. You don't even need to buy or download hacks. Logitech provides it for you in the form of LGS. Most of these FPS's you can change the fire mode on guns from full to semi. Semi always has a lot less recoil. Then just make a script in LGS to spam the...
