I bought this on sale and have played for 12 hours. I'm running a 7800X3D + RTX 5090 and the game seems to perform well. All settings maxed, frame rate capped at 100 FPS, DLSS quality, no frame gen, 3440×1440. I'm surprised at the lack of stutters. Other than the sale price, I decided to buy...
This was on sale recently so I bought it. I'm 26 hours in and I'm enjoying it. The focus of the game seems to be on the story, doing things for NPCs, and finding things to unlock doors and progress the story. There are only several types of enemies and I think they are a product of something...
I'm probably at least 80% through the game and I'm just now realizing I should have been doing the Cabin challenges for the rewards. I only did tic-tac-toe, I didn't look into the challenges, so I didn't notice that the challenge rewards were upgrade materials.
This is an informational post because what I found regarding the flashing screen symptoms point to a faulty HDMI cable or connection but that was not the case.
I have an Nvidia Shield tube that has the most recent updates as of April 2026 and I previously logged into it with a secondary Google...
This is tempting but I think I should probably be looking into MiSTer FPGA when I see these old console remakes. It would be nice to have, but I'd probably play it once.
I started to believe that RE4 remake was dropping ammo based on ammo quantity in my inventory. It seemed like when I was starting to get concerned about ammo, more ammo would drop for my weapon(s) to keep me going.
Newegg has Resident Evil Requiem pre-order Steam key for 21% off of $69.99 (shows 15%, but it's actually 21%); it says that the key is sold by Newegg, so I bought that because it seems legit. I'm going to keep an eye out for a DS2 key there.
Last I checked, Counter Strike 2 didn't have surround support, Quake Champions maybe had it at one point and then they removed it or broke it, and PAYDAY 2 had it, but they broke it or removed it. I wonder if they removed surround from those games intentionally because it's very easy to locate...
I played the demo. Cranked up all the settings and used the frame gen option without resolution scaling (RTX 5090) and it runs great. I liked the demo, it feels like a '90s PlayStation game. I like the hacking and weapon switching during combat.
You mention "few months", got me wondering what Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas sale price might look like. It must be more than the BF6 release to already be on sale. I waited and skipped because of the supposed performance issues.
I've been playing the TotK upgrade on Switch 2, 99.9% of the time it runs 60FPS, if you move the camera through a cluster of tree foliage, you can get it to drop a few frames, but that rarely happens. With the Switch 2 upgrade, the resolution is clearly higher and the frame rate is consistently...
The game gets ruthless on 150cc mode, but that's what I expected; you need to use every trick in the book to stay ahead, but they will inevitably try to ruin your day with blue and brown shells. My only complaint is that there doesn't seem to be an option to restart a race in single-player grand...
I grabbed an MSI SUPRIM LIQUOD SOC. Availability on these appears much better.
I have a Lian-Li LANCOOL 216X case and was unable to install the front cover with the 360mm GPU radiator installed in Lian-Li's front radiator brackets. I already have a Deepcool 360mm radiator (for CPU) installed on...
I've only got to the research lab past where you need to clear the BTs and this sounds about right for DS1, you nailed it with the Iceland reference. I think Low Roar was based out of Iceland, so I wonder if Kojima toured Iceland and then base DS1 off if Iceland's landscape.
I haven't played...
F*** THESE PRICES.
I want a 5090, particularly one of the MSI or Gigabyte water cooled models, but another poster mentioned that their other hobbies are conflicting here. I could by a 700HP short block for my car for $4700 and that'll be good as long as I take care of the engine. Yes, I'll need...
I bought this because it's $30 on sale. Too bad they censored stuff, but I can't remember what was censored anyways. I do like the easy mode, because I really just want to replay the game without the hassle. I don't know if this is a feature of easy mode or something they fixed, but I've had...
I saw their gameplay demo and noticed stutters and was concerned, but I did play to the first delivery area in Mexico and it was smooth. I'm on PS5 Pro, I used the Pro fidelity/quality setting, which appears to be running at 60FPS based on my LG TV's game bar. No stutters.
Based on this, I'm somewhat concerned it's going the Amnesia stalking route to scare players. I guess RE7 and RE8 went there, but I'm not a fan of that that type of gameplay. I stopped playing The Evil Within at the place where some kind of apparition is stalking you, then grabs your head and...
Last time I checked Cyberpunk 2077, it does not use the dedicated subwoofer channel, so you'll hear no bass in the sub if your speakers are set to 'large'; that isn't uncommon, so I recommend always using a crossover to mix bass to the subwoofer. For your particular setup, run mmsys.cpl and set...
I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to push software/DLSS4 because it's *AI* (right?). If they can get gamers and reviewers onboard with fake frames, then they can use that as a selling point for their datacenter products. Nvidia: "Look at how much we maximized our profit with AI by selling...
I'm conflicted, I think it performs ok, while it does occasionally hitch, it does still feel smooth (the motion blur really helps), but I wish it performed better. I'm considering delaying playing it until I have a 5080/5090 because I'm barely maintaining 60FPS on a 3090/7800X3D at 3440×1440...
I bought it... like an idiot. If I couldn't previously run it over 60 FPS because of Gamebryo, I surely won't be able to run it faster because of UE5. BRING ON STUTTERFEST. We'll see after work.
Edit: Steam download died unusually. I'm guessing every other idiot is also trying to download it now.
Just got the black screens back in Atomic Heart. Played a few times throughout the day without issue, then it appeared in a specific area. GPU wasn't even being hammered because I was in a confined space. Maybe I need to use DDU.
RTX 3090 here. With 572.83 I was getting random black screens in Atomic Heart, almost as if my GPU was overheating because the image would re-appear, but it didn't affect Ghost of Tsushima that I played for 40+ hours. I rolled back to 566.36(?) and Atomic Heart ran fine. Decided to update to...
I hope the upgrade packs aren't more than $10, I own Breath of the Wild but put it off because I wanted a smoother experience, so I'll be going the upgrade route. I'm surprised that 4K is an option, but judging by the graphics, it looks like they probably keep detail low to make 4K playable...

This linked timestamp in the video, specifically 6:46 to 7:36, that's why I got tired of Eternal.
Looks like they've improved the gameplay. The parry looks fun.
I played the beta once, didn't really feel it. I played as the support class and had fun activating guns and stuff, it ran well on my 7800X3D/RTX3090, but I didn't feel the urge to return to it.
When I initially saw this thread I found that Nobsound amplifier on Amazon and my first impression is that it might be decent. It doesn't appear to be a powerhouse (rated 50W max - that's questionable), but I assume it can push some bookshelf speakers and a powered sub.
For the Nobsound amp, I...
I loaded it up briefly, seamlessly imported my single-player save (I don't play online), and loaded up the game. I did bump up some of the RT, AF, and shadows settings from the RT High preset and I was surprised that it still ran well.
I installed 572.60 yesterday, running an RTX 3090 and I'm poking around in Sonic Frontiers, which is not a demanding game, and it is now randomly black-screening during the game. Gonna roll this junk back. Ironic that they supposedly fixed black screen issues on the 50 series but introduced it...
I bought this on PS5 because I saw that it wasn't technically impressive (60 FPS cap, limited to 16:9, no HDR, etc.) so I figured I'd just enjoy it on the couch. I'm enjoying the game, I like exploring the open world and the cyberspace challenges are fun (not brutal), but one thing makes me...
I have a 3090 and I had to use DDU to remove my driver/Nvidia software, then re-install the 572.16 + Nvidia app driver to get the DLSS override option to become active in the Nvidia app; I'm not even sure that was the source of me not being able to enable that feature for some games considering...
I thought 2016 was alright, but I couldn't really get into Eternal. All of the weapon customization, leveling-up stuff, and the need to use different attacks to get health, armor, or ammo somehow didn't click with me in the DOOM context. I also got tired of the gameplay. I'm interested to see if...
LOL. I was giving my son a bath and told him that the Switch 2 was coming, I mentioned that there will be a new Mario Kart game and he said that it'll probably have cool graphics. That brief moment from the Switch 2 trailer flashed in my mind and I told him that it probably won't look much...
