Same here :unsure: :LOL:
In fact, I also still have the set of 3.5" floopy discs for MS DOS 6.1 and Windows 3.1 and Windows 95, and the MS manuals to go with them :oops:
Check out Gamers Nexus, Hardware Unboxed and the like on YouTube. They all do monitor reviews, produce 'Best Monitor for a price range' lists, comparisons of similar spec monitors, and some do HDR compatibility. Quite often, although the manufacturer claims it's, lets say HDR 400, it isn't...
There's a puppy in Days Gone. You have to rescue it and give it to your best mate. That's a game mission.
You can't actually pet it, but you find dog toys throughout the game, which you give to the puppy :love:
OOH! Thanks, I'll do that then. Check my PSU has an output port available, and if it does, get another cable.
I'm glad you pointed that out, it hadn't crossed my mind. It does make sense though, you don't want a big heavy stiff cable if a lighter one is all that's required.
No spare PCIe cable in the box, I already had a look. Every other type of cable, but not that one 🙁
The Quick Start Guide, which is generic so doesn't say specifically, but does say don't use a splitter on 1 power cable to a 2 socket card. I'm guessing the same applies to a 3 socket card, ie 3...
It arrived safely, but I wasn't home. That was a disastrous week altogether that one. But anyway, the Royal Mail redelivered it this morning. I've physically installed it, and then noticed it has 3 x 8pin PCIe power sockets. I take it this means it requires all 3 sockets to be powered, directly...
Well I haven't noticed the prices dropping, so I've just hit the button on fleabay to buy a new,
ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 7900XT OC Edition 20GB.
£780 with free postage. I should have it by next weekend.
There were pre-owned cards available, at a considerably lower price. I decided not to take...
Festive plans:-
Christmas Day, going to see my daughter, grandkids and SOL for Xmas Dinner, gifts, etc, in Cumbernauld, with my mom. The rest of the family will be doing their usual Christmas Day things.
Boxing Day, the whole family descends on my mothers house for most of the day, including...
Still playing Days Gone, but now playing the hardest setting. I'll probably play it again for a direct comparison between GPUs. Also in my library are; Star Wars Fallen Order and Squadrons, Hitman 3, 2, The Witcher 3, 2 and 1, Assassins Creed (complete suite), Horizon Zero Dawn, Tomb Raider...
When I bought my PCS build, about a year ago, I installed a 2070 Super. The plan always being to upgrade that in the 'near' future.
Well I think this is the future point I had in mind.
I've got a Gigabyte M34WQ monitor, 144Hz, 3440 x 1440p superwide, which is great and probably won't be...
I've got an M34WQ, on advise from Martinr and others.
It's a flat screen and I personally wouldn't recommend anything wider.
It isn't quite wide enough for 2 full windows side by side (on 3440), but very close to that. Either overlap them slightly or have them slightly narrower.
It's 144MHz...
This is about my old computer, not a PCS build. I apologise if this is too naughty, just tell me I'll delete it.
Old computer specs in my sig.
I gave my daughter and family my old computer, the complete set-up including monitor.
It worked fine for a couple of months, then developed a problem...
Hmmm, it looks like AC Valhalla is back up to £50 (less a bit of change) already.
I must have got in at just the right time. I'm afraid I didn't post immediately, I didn't think of it until the next day. Sorry :cry:
