  1. Prodeus

    I had Prodeus (https://store.steampowered.com/app/964800/Prodeus/) on my Steam wish list for quite some time and finally decided to take the plunge and buy it last weekend. I'm about 3 hours in and really am enjoying it. If you enjoyed DOOM 2016, you would likely also really enjoy this game...
  2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Logo Revealed by Infinity Ward

    Am I living in an alternate time line? I could have sworn there already has been a "Modern Warfare 2" game
  3. Microsoft Building Program That Lets Brands Place Ads into Xbox Games

    Yeah, I remember when Enemy Territory: Quake Wars tried this (as well as Quake Live when it was browser-based). I saw a couple of live ads, but in general I think it flopped pretty hard. Now, ad tech has come a long way, and Microsoft has a huge portfolio of studies and games now, so I could see...
  4. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    To wrap this up -- Yesterday I sent a lengthy message to the buyer with specific instructions on how to test the card for failure. Got a response today that the buyer purchased 2 cards and accidentally opened a return on the wrong one. Perhaps it was an honest mistake :) Still never selling...
  5. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    Well good to know that eBay SHOULD refund the selling fees. I've yet to see see that in their FAQ, but here's to hoping. And yeah -- What is the point of having a "No Refund" policy if the buyer can always request a refund anyway? I don't see any reason the buyer couldn't just be having buyers...
  6. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    Thanks for that! I sent a reply asking to take a video of the card running a stress test (suggesting the stress test built into the AMD drivers) with the command output clearly visible in the video. We'll see what the response is...
  7. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    Yes, I will do that but from what I’m reading in the internet I’m basically going to have no choice but to accept the returns. And, even if the card is returned in perfect order (perhaps the buyer just has remorse) given that the price of video cards are falling, I’m going to lose some money on...
  8. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    I have pictures of the card which visibly has the S/N printed on it
  9. Sold a Vega 56 on eBay and the buyer wants to return -- what should I ask for?

    Has anyone sold computer hardware on ebay before? And, if the buyer has requested a return, how did you handle it? I recently sold a Vega 56 on eBay (it was delivered to buyer March 14) and I got a return request for the item today, stating: "This gpu runs for at most 10 mins then will give a...
  10. New Alien Film in Development for Hulu

    The only Alien licensed asset that should see the light of day is a sequel to Alien Isolation
  11. Mozilla’s Firefox Browser Is Flatlining: “Not Expected to Win Back Any Market Share At This Point”

    Firefox is my main desktop web browser. The only thing Chrome has I wish FF did was the ability to cast a tab onto a Chromecast enabled device
  12. Crucial Ballistix brand going away

    One of my first builds I had the Ballistix Tracer memory in it... Eventually it went bad, likely due to the cheap BioStar motherboard it was plugged into. The RMA process was smooth, and Crucial sent back a stress "ball" shaped like a pig, and branded a "memory hog". It was a nice surprise and...
  13. Comments no longer on the main site?

    Why can I no longer see comments on the News posted on the main site? Have to specifically go find the thread in the forums to check out the discussion.
  14. Micron Discontinues Crucial’s Ballistix Gaming Memory

    One of the first computers I built myself had Crucial Ballistix Tracer memory in it. Loved that stuff! My recent build has the 16GBx2 3600 Ballistix in it... Guess next build it will be something else.
  15. Non-Big 3 Cell Carrier

    Just to give everyone an update on this... About a month ago I took the plunge and signed up with Visible Wireless (https://www.visible.com/) Their Unlimited Plan is $40/month, plus I get a $15/month discount through PerksAtWork.com... So, I figured for $25/month, I should at least try...
  16. AMD Releases Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.12.1 Driver with Support for Halo Infinite and More

    I just upgraded to these and there is quite a large difference in performance for Halo Infinite. I have a Radeon 6700 XT and at 1440p I noticed an immediate difference in smoothness. Additionally, just looking at my average fps (as captured by the driver software), increased from 62.5 fps to...
  17. Intel Launches 12th Gen Core “Alder Lake-S” Processors, Flagship Core i9-12900K Costs $589

    241 Watt for turbo speeds seems like a lot, no?
  18. Halo Infinite Gets a Stunning New Campaign Trailer with Much Improved Visuals

    I never play SP games and therefore don’t watch any game trailers. I think this visually looks pretty good! What SP games make this look dated graphically?
  19. Case with buttons on front or side

    I'm looking for recommendations on mid-towers that have buttons on either the front or the side. My current case has the power/reset buttons on the top of the case. My cat loves to hop up and sit on top of my tower, and unfortunately, sometimes hits the power button with her paw. I'd love to...
