    Edge Router X Replacement

    I swapped out my ER-X for an ER-12 to better utilize/futureproof Smart Queue on my (currently) 300/300 net (may upgrade to at least 500/500). I had been using passive PoE passthrough to power both my AP AC Lite and the 'X' but for some reason the '12' Wizard defaults the only PoE out port...

    Fallout 76

    read my review a few pages back: https://hardforum.com/threads/fallout-76.1961424/page-27#post-1044566844 cliffs: gameplay is OK. grindy. story/roleplaying is token. broken canon. totally pozzed. think generic MMORG with FO skin. I reinstalled this to kill some drought time before CP2077...

    Can I permanently modify RX 480 settings?

    This process still works and is worthwhile. I still have 480s in the kid's boxes (they became very cheap when gpu mining crashed, great bang for the buck at 1080/60Hz) and it knocks down the fan speed/heat/power consumption considerably, and they will maintain boost speeds more consistently...

    What GPU for my son's rig?

    Both kids play 1080/60, very respectable settings in most titles (R6 and Monsterhunter mostly), using bios modded (undervolted) 8gb RX480s. Many to be had under 100 from the usual sources. There was a flood of these when crypto crashed.

    Best router for multiple devices primarily hardwired

    Slight threadjack regarding the edgerouters: Firstly, I noticed that the new 2.0.8 hotfix 1 firmware offers a setting in basic setup to automatically choose 'fast public DNS servers' (google, cloudflare, etc) instead of your ISP's. thoughts? Second, from what I've read the ER-X can't handle...

    Fallout 76

    My 2 cents, as a long time old school FO fan. I picked this up last year as a heavily discounted, Eurozone, reseller key. As a game, it does well what Bethesda does well, which is provide a large, fairly beautiful and interesting open world to explore, kill $hit and loot. That said, it...

    How do you disable intro logos/movies in KOTOR?

    Play the fan made restoration. doubleplus good. It restored tons of buried content in the install files including fleshing out the ending. Lucasarts force obsidian to rush it out for Xmas.

    Disco Elysium

    I've noticed that too and it's probably a Unity engine bug, where you have to be standing in a specific spot to interact with something. Wander a step or two away, and re-attempt. lol at ZeroPunc hiding the Disco review in the COD:MW one.

    Disco Elysium

    In some cases, it means you don't have the right item equipped: a bag to collect bottles, a crowbar to open containers, the key for a particular door, etc. It took me a while to recognize that you could click on the # over your health bar to dispense collected health/morale boosts, while in...
