    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    The movie is steeped in North American rural from the time period. I would not expect someone from a different part of the world to fully relate to it. Some comedy is universal, some is much more nuanced and or targeted.

    "Hey guyz! 7200MT/s is officially supported!" Shoppers response - "Not by our wallets!"

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    My son and I co-oped the hell out of Crackdown. Did not like the second one. Never played the 3rd.

    level1tech watching three ASROCK AM5 mobos like a hawk!

    My hot take: Any anecdotal results from users that tune/overclock, should be studiously ignored. Nor should you trust randoms for either methodology or honestly. I.E. always err on the side of PICNIC first. Until the numbers become too large to ignore.

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    Depressingly on point. Let's hope the decision makers are smart enough to use the - if it ain't broke, don't fix it, managerial style.

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    But they won't get to take DC Comics or any of the other IP with them. My hope is Netflix will let people that love the comics, the characters, the movies, and the books, make the games. Suicide Squad and Gotham Knights are examples of not understanding the fandom. Hogwarts is a great example...

    Smoking hot deal! 32gb DDR5 for only $400! /s

    FUD over PC gaming dying is almost as old as the hobby. I think it peaked when the PC section in stores like Best Buy shrunk to a tiny display area on a couple of shelves. When it used to be 3 aisle on both sides. PS2 made console super popular again. Then the 360 and PS3 came out with a...

    Smoking hot deal! 32gb DDR5 for only $400! /s

    I'll be that guy. :devilish: Am I the only one that remembers when gaming PCs were expensive, especially in adjusted dollars? And aged out way faster? I feel like we get sucked into ragebait over and over like Groundhog day. If a good gaming PC cost me 3K instead of 1K to spec out, no BFD...

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    I am biased because I played co-op with my son as he grew up. I can honestly say that they surprised me with the need for puzzle solving. Some requiring going back later when you unlock a character that has the skills/powers necessary. The humor in the games had me LOLing far more than I would...

    Buyout Deal Worth $82 Billion Could See Netflix Gain Access to Warner Bros. Game IPs Such as Batman, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat

    I canceled all streaming a couple months ago. Including game pass. I put $80+ back in my wallet every month. ☠️ I retired early in life so have no need for mobile gaming. I have such a big back log of PC games, I won't get through it for years. Amazon and Epic keep giving me more free titles...

    level1tech watching three ASROCK AM5 mobos like a hawk!

    This issue is highly unlikely to get any traction. Beyond some prudent DIYers that are tuned into the scene, avoiding ASRock for their AM5 builds. The reasons being: Let us be generous and say that after eliminating PICNIC as the culprit, there are 1000 unique users reporting failures to date...

    DRAM Prices Skyrocket to a Record 171% YoY Level as Shortages Continue amid Increased Demand from AI-Driven Applications

    This decade has exacerbated my predilection for hoarding PC parts. That it keeps ending with me patting myself on the back for getting in at the right time, is the worst part.

    Recommend a fan hub for a be quiet! Pure Base 501 please and thank you.

    Gratitude homies! 🍻 Never had anything Noctua I was not stoked with. I have avoided RGB since retiring from doing custom builds for clients in early 2020. RGB sells PCs, but it is not for me. The Pure Base501is all black stealth. I am probably going to get the Noctua.

    @igor_kavinski Is there any profit to be had at $430? Or is this trying to clear out existing stock?

    A Lot has happened in the last year. New games. 1851 has matured. Arrow's gotten some performance improvements, plus more APO titles added. Amazon has the 285K shipped and sold by back in stock for $430 with 10% back on Amazon cards https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DFKC99VL/?tag=thefpsreview-20

    Early Black Friday Deals on RAM, NVMe Drives, GPUs, and More

    That was one of my favorite cards. Gave it to my son when I upgraded. I have a retail boxed EVGA GTX 650 just so I can keep a part of PC gaming history that gives me warm feels. I have not seen any deals worth posting about, that someone here has not already linked. Been some hot deals on used...

    Depends on the games my friend. Turn up graphics settings in many modern titles and you place more load on the CPU, not less. When the CPU can't keep up, your are cooked. Aussie Steve tested it in a video the last week or 2. I would rather use upscaling and optimize graphics settings for the...
