    Assassin’s Creed Mirage

    I'm not really enjoying Mirage, the occasional crash doesn't help. I can't see myself buying the next one if this is a sign of things to come, and I've played and finished every release so far (except the side scrollers). It feels like they had the D team work on it (story dull, gameplay dull...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    I updated my C2 42" to WebOS 23 and it could just be my imagination, but the input latency feels slightly worse. Maybe I need to reset the firmware and set it up again. :inpain:

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    At the time I bought mine, the C2 was $1700AUD and the A90K was $2900AUD. If I'd waited I could have spent ~$1200AUD on the C2 and $16-1900AUD for the A90K. So a ~$700USD price difference when I picked mine up. And I mostly use a 4k 27" monitor on the right of the OLED with an Apple TV to watch...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    The lower price and input latency as well as the 4 hdmi 2.1 ports is what pushed me to LG instead of Sony. And I can't bring myself to spend money on a Shield to improve the upscaling on my C2 when Nvidia are massively overdue to replace the chip in it with something that has updated codec...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    My 43” Sony lcd died which is why I picked up a 42”C2. Still partly regretting not going for the 42” Sony OLED for the better image processing.

    Who here likes big displays as their PC monitor? 40inch plus gang chime in

    I’m tempted to drop lower for that 360hz qdoled samsung panel coming out. But otherwise 42c2.

    Sony A95L QD-OLED (New for 2023)

    I’m only slightly jealous ;). If my ~10 year old living room Sony died today this is probably what would replace it.

    The Verge: Westworld showrunners are creating a Fallout show for Amazon

    Sadly the show has a a high probability of being bad due to the terrible writers and show runners that are currently being hired for pretty much everything. I'm sure it'll look nice though.

    Just need the M3 pro mini models to come out and I'll probably replace my M1 mini.

    Apple 'Scary Fast' Mac event October 30th

    So a 10 second show where they have each product launched in a 1 second per product powerpoint? Scary fast.

    Assassin’s Creed Mirage

    I'm putting this game on the backburner until they release a patch to disable chromatic aberration. Their use of it is really bad and annoys the hell out of my eyes. I just wish the fad of it being added into almost every game like a tick box feature to add would be over already. A bad blur...

    6700 XT to a 7900 XT?

    Upgraded from a 6700xt to a 7900xtx and it was definitely worth it. I run 4k with mine. I had an issue with my corsair h1000i not being able to keep it stable but a spare fractal design 850w I had solved it.

    Microsoft appears to have given up on cloud gaming in the short term

    The pesky laws of physics keeps getting in the way of pay walling all video games behind a subscription. I feel so bad for them. :rolleyes:

    Square Enix Market Value Plummets By $2 Billion After Final Fantasy 16 Release

    I wonder how much money they burned on Forspoken. Surely that has far more to with a drop in share price (and the NFT direction).

    What Is Your Personal Favorite Video Card of All Time?

    Feel free to hate on it (it was after all the cool thing to do at the time) but I really liked those cards and 3d vision. The days of when if you wanted more performance you could just slot in another card. I used them till I swapped to a gtx970, which gives nothing but bad memories with it’s...

    What Is Your Personal Favorite Video Card of All Time?

    My tri sli gtx480’s that I used for 3d vision before they removed support for it. Also doubled as a space heater.

    Radeon RX 7700 XT Reviews

    I’m of the opinion the current price will go down once RDNA 2 stock is gone. Earlier if Nvidia aggressively drops the 4060 pricing.

    AMD To Unveil Next Major Products At Gamescom 2023, Radeon RX 7800 XT & 7700 XT Expected

    Decided not to wait for 7800xt reviews and picked up a 7900xtx. I play too many games at 4k. I’m hoping antilag+ brings AMD closer to reflex latency numbers.

    Volition shutdown. Saints row dev.

    Never played any of their games but unfortunate for the employees. Well maybe 5 minutes of a saints row and it wasn’t for me. Mimimi just went under as well 🫡. https://www.techspot.com/news/99964-mimi-games-studio-behind-shadow-gambit-desperados-3.html I guess it'll be another 10 years before...

    AMD To Unveil Next Major Products At Gamescom 2023, Radeon RX 7800 XT & 7700 XT Expected

    I don't live in the USA so the sale forums are no good for me ;-). Depending on benchmarks of the 7800xt I might grab a 7900xtx instead. But it's really only the antitlag+ I'm interested in since antilag has disappointing performance in comparison to reflex.

    AMD To Unveil Next Major Products At Gamescom 2023, Radeon RX 7800 XT & 7700 XT Expected

    If it’s enough of an upgrade over my 6700xt I might grab a 7800xt for the antilag+. (Assuming it’s actually good).

    Final Fantasy XVI Special Battle Demo Available Now

    I thought Graphics mode the game felt fine, though once you finally reached the training fight in the castle yard, the detail wasn't as good as the intro. Performance mode looked like bad upscaled 1080p to me and was unplayable because of that. (I partly blame the poor image processing that LG...

    New DirectX 12-to-Metal translation could bring a world of Windows games to macOS

    I assume this is in part is to try and get VR game developers to port their products over in time for the launch. And maybe they want m3 and m4 to steal back some of the game market they threw out the window decades ago.

    Diablo 4 review: The horror’s back, and we couldn’t be happier

    The game seems ok so far but I’m only at the first town. There’s the occasional stutter but I’m unsure if that’s driver related or game related. I’m liking that they brought over controller support from the consoles this time so I can lean back.

    Nvidia would like to correct the record on VRAM it seems lol

    Lack of VRAM in the 3080 was a key component in my decision to switch to AMD from only buying nvidia cards for my gaming machine since the riva128. Combined with the inability to find cards at msrp. Although suppose losing 1 customer doesn’t matter that much.

    Scumbag ASUS: Overvolting CPUs & Screwing the Customer

    Maybe I should throw some money Evga’s way when I upgrade eventually. Any known issues with their motherboards lately? I haven’t used one since they sold nvidia motherboards. Always have niggling problems with any Asus/GB/MSI I’ve bought in the last few years. (Bad bios design, killer nics...

    Jedi Survivor is the best showcase of a looming problem for PC players

    Seems to be running fine for me (30-50fps) everything set to epic on my 6700XT at 4k resolution. I get the feeling though that maybe the textures aren't loading correctly when I have FSR off so I've left it on since it looks better. (maybe I just like the boost in sharpness) I had the...

    PlayStation VR2 Launches Globally With Dozens of Stunning Virtual Reality Games Available

    I don’t get enough use out of my psvr1 (partly because I couldn’t fine tune the focal length to not be uncomfortable for longer amounts of use). So I’ll probably wait till something releases that I’m really interested in with the psvr2 before buying one. (It’s supposed to have better focal fine...

    What new OLED gaming monitors in 2023?

    Well I'm typing this on a monitor I bought from them, but I do agree they have big issues in meeting deadlines. (though the refund thread in their forums suggests maybe I got lucky, which is a shame since it's a really good monitor)

    What new OLED gaming monitors in 2023?

    Anybody plan on grabbing one of the new RX7xxx Navi cards on launch?

    I was going to get a 7900xtx, but instead bought a bunch of music gear to play with. I definitely need to upgrade in 2 years though, and the GPU chiplets should be more mature by then.
