  1. Well, it was marketed towards the new consoles, and towards being playable on old consoles without having to buy a second copy when getting a new console... But it was most heavily marketed towards PC.
  2. Same way they do with tickets for sports... Limit resale price to no more than $1 + service charges over the MSRP. If exceeding that price, it's illegal. I'd say to get a better CPU before trying to upgrade the GPU. The CPU will be the more limiting item in that build. An RX 580 8GB is able to run virtually everything at medium settings with playable framerates. Frequency is a big plus, but only because it allows a higher frequency form the Infinity Fabric without decoupling it from the RAM frequency. If you want to increase the RAM speed above 3200, you're gonna need a new CPU. If you want it to exceed 3600, you're gonna need at least a B550 motherboard and a Ryzen 5000 CPU. (I'd wait for the lower priced ones to come out in a few months) Apart from the Infinity Fabric effects, latency is the next most important part of RAM performance. The 16-16-16-36 timing numbers after the speed are part of what determines that, and lower are always better. If it's already decent timings, then using 4 sticks instead of just two will almost always perform better than "faster" RAM. Anything over 120Hz is effectively negligible for anything except ultra-competitive e-sports "gaming". I'm using a 165Hz monitor right now, and I can not see any difference between 165Hz, 144Hz, and 120Hz in the vast majority of games. Apart from that, a nice build.
  3. 3560 - Looking forward to this year...
  4. Right on my dude! TPBM still has far fewer posts than me.
  5. Of course he was. It's illogical for him to do so, so he naturally would. Same as the rest of us.
  6. Things I have to hate, just to keep this place from becoming a toxic cesspool of fanbois of non-Ross content. My hate keeps us safe. My hate is life.
  7. Star Trek Online. I did some dailies.
  8. The shortage will happen until they either outlaw scalping, or until they produce more cards than the scalpers can buy. I'm personally for them outdooing the scalpers and forcing all of them to have wasted money by scalping, and have it be illegal, rather than neither because people are paying a scalper to make this problem permanent.
  9. Is this going to be another one of those things I have to hate to get people to stop spamming it everywhere now?
  10. Welcome back my dude.
  11. I just remembered, effectively no replayability IME. Not even any real mods...
  12. I thought that was corporate mono/oligopolies and corruption, not radicalism...
  13. When they feel like it... Please don't. It's hard enough to get them now, and every dollar you give to a scalper will make it even harder for everyone in the future. (even you)
  14. That was my reaction as well.
  15. Looks like quotes make it bigger... It's a grower, not a shower.
  16. Wait... There are idiots that think "old" means it's not worth playing?
  17. ghobe’
  18. 3546 - 454 to go.
  19. That is the least enticing ad I have ever seen. It makes me actively want to NOT look at it.
  20. I do in fact love this game. Very fun, and quite addictive. It hits on that same OCD I had that forced me to run every race in NFS Underground or Most Wanted several dozen times, until I beat them without crashing on the hardest difficulty. The weapons don't matter, even though they're there. I don't even try to use them... lol
  21. Qo'
  22. 3540 - 460 to go.
  23. Most of that is outright illegal in the USA. Especially the skipping breaks part. (in the USA, you can sue and win millions over it, if you can prove the management is forcing it)
  24. Says who?
  25. Because you're looking.
