Didn’t know about this, I may submit some tracks.

Tell me of these PSO private servers you speak of.

Honestly, I’m flummoxed.

To answer your original question: you can mainly tell by doing benchmarks and watching your CPU/GPU usage. If your CPU is maxed the whole time but your GPU is chilling at 50-60% usage while you’re getting below 60 FPS, you likely have a CPU bottleneck. There are a number of free benchmarks out there, and several “AAA” games will typically have one too (Forza, Returnal, and many others) so you can tune your system.

So buying a 4080Ti without the supporting parts it needs will limit how much performance you can get out of it. Nowadays RAM typically is not the bottleneck.

I had a Ryzen 7 1700 with a 2070 non-super until earlier this year with next to no problems. The only reason I went to a 7800x3d was because it was bottlenecking the software I used to make music.

She may be making it worse but she has made enough money to not give a shit.

The new Prince of Persia roguelike is pretty good, although I’ve hit a wall recently and am too stubborn to look up a walkthrough. Lots of fun otherwise, though.

Hey what were those two sites so I can avoid them, don’t wanna accidentally pirate something yar har fiddly dee ifyouknowwhatimsayin

I’m in the same boat, in the early days of Android (Galaxy S 1 days) I used to go to their site just as frequently as Tom’s Hardware, TechPowerUp, etc. because they were on top of most new customizable ROMs if I remember right.

I haven’t had a reason to go back since it has become increasingly more difficult to get a custom ROM on any Galaxy phone, and I almost completely forgot about the site until this announcement.

Sounding like Richard Rahl and The Sword of Truth now. (Please don’t hate me the first 3-4 books were good…)

Oh yeah I love his tech tips!

Marlin jerkey. I was on a bit of a jerky kick last year and ordered all kinds of weird jerky, but the marlin jerky was my favorite. I think I got a lemon pepper flavored one from a company in Hawaii.

Not with that attitude.

Page 4: GorillAk47 is beating on the door in a rampage. I had taquitos for lunch today. I’ve synthesized a cure for the T-virus and it’s in the crucible right now. I just hope the door holds and GorillAk47 doesn’t destroy the lab because this is the last chance for humani–

Both Turnip Boy games (Tax Evasion and Robs a Bank), short fun, games with decent replayability. The writing is what makes it work though.

Wayfinder, don’t have a full opinion on this yet but it would have been interesting to see it if it had been released as an MMO as planned, the world is very pretty.

Crime Boss Rokay City is pretty fun, at launch it was crap but they’ve moved more towards a PayDay angle with heists and is pretty decent now.

Most Hunters I’ve met are pretty cool. Can’t say the same about Drew’s, Brock’s, or Clayton’s, but I feel like those are becoming more uncommon as I get older.

I’m thinking this leads to MegaCity 1 type situations like in Dredd.

Surprised to hear someone mention Dallas Tort Worth ever since The Incident.

I just mentioned this game to my coworkers yesterday, and they had never heard of it. I loved the concept but it didn’t hold me more than a week.

Overwatch/TF2 classes with portals? Sounds great! (haven’t seen the trailer)

The Manor Lords dev came out recently saying the opposite of this, basically there shouldn’t be an endless grind after the release of the game. He seems not to be bound to the “ultra-popular game gotta get content done ASAP” grindset previous games got sucked into.

I’ve never played Manor Lords, and barely played Palworld, but there are so many games out now why sink 100 to 200 hours into a popular new release, only to complain about the lack of content a week later?
