  1. Your 2023 Game of the Year

    **** what all the major outlets say, I want to hear what was your favorite game of the year? It was a good year for video games - a lot of high profile releases, and a lot of good releases (not necessarily the same pool of games there). Also a lot of duds. Unfortunately, Steam hasn't updated...
  2. Looking for ideas - new case

    So my current build is in a Lian Li Lancool 215. I do not recommend that case. I'm looking to replace it. I've got an ATX motherboard and 2 240mm radiators. The computer currently lives up on my desk behind my two monitors (corner desk) - as such, some optimal combination of small footprint...
  3. Post editing stuff is gone

    All the formatting tools are gone. Did I flip a switch somewhere in user settings, or disable something on my browser, or is this something server-side? My bbcode is a bit rusty but I guess I can polish it up in the mean time Here's a SS (which I had to save in paint and upload as a file, as...
  4. Destiny 2

    So, I bought this back when it first released. Was never huge huge into it, but had run through the story and leveled up one of each class. I loaded up the game last night on a lark and was utterly lost - it dumped me into some mission on Neptune? No idea where I am or what I'm doing anymore...
  5. The latest Windows dirty trick?

    So, I just noticed this week... Every time I reboot my Windows 11 PC, a shortcut for Microsoft Edge keeps reappearing on the desktop. Reading around, apparently this is "normal" when Edge updates, but I haven't noticed it until just this week.
  6. LG 2023 lineup

    https://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&id=1672651962 TL;DR The G3 gets a nice brightness update. All other models pretty much unchanged - so feel unafraid to go out and get those C2’s on clearance.

  8. DP 2.1 notes

    https://videocardz.com/press-release/vesa-releases-displayport-2-1-specification Looks like it's pretty close to 2.0, just tightens up cable marking (since there are 40Gb and 80Gb cables - it makes the difference more obvious), and tightens integration with DP over USB C.
  9. Love the new layout

    Looks great! Any chance we can get a selector or toggle or something for font size in the articles? There's a bunch of F'n Old Farts around these forums, and I am one of them. I use Zoom on Chrome, it makes the text readable but the pictures get gigantic. And while I'm being super nit-picky...
  10. Goodbye Stadia, we all knew this was coming

  11. New Intel Arc Benchmarks... from Intel

    https://www.tomshardware.com/news/arc-a750-trades-blows-with-rtx-3060-across-nearly-50-games You'd think these guys would have learned -- don't release your internal benchmark results. Release your card to a reputable third party review site, and let them publish the benchmarks. Doing anything...
  12. Intel drivers

    https://www.pcgamer.com/intel-arc-legacy-dx11-support/ If I read between the lines there — it’s basically Intel saying their drivers are going to suck for anything less than DX12
  13. New Apple M2 Processor announced

    Shipping in forthcoming Airs and 13" MBPs (similar to the original M1 roleout) This iteration has: TSMC 5nm, 20B transistors. Up to 24G RAM and 50% higher bandwidth (I'm guessing they added another memory channel) Up to 10 GPU cores (2 that the previous generation for these products) - gives a...

  15. Intel Arc ... I hope you aren't holding your breath

    https://community.intel.com/t5/Blogs/Products-and-Solutions/Gaming/Engineering-Arc-5-9-2022/post/1383055 One interesting take away is this is written from the desk of Lisa Pearce, Vice President and General Manager for the Visual Compute Group and not Raja M. Koduri, Executive Vice President...
  16. EGS Rant

    Ok, first world problem. This isn't a rant about capitalism or the death of player choice. Rather, I hate it when I get something on the EGS. It says on the storefront "In Library". LIke today, Terraforming Mars. I want to give it a shot. I got the freebie, and now I want to install it...
  17. Square/Enix just spun off Eidos to Embracer (Gearbox)

    https://embracer.com/release/embracer-group-enters-into-an-agreement-to-acquire-eidos-crystal-dynamics-and-square-enix-montreal-amongst-other-assets/ Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Thief, etc. meet Borderlands. Never thought I'd see the studio that did Tomb Raider get split off, but I guess the...
  18. Snagged an XBSX

    I thought it was an April Fool's joke when Amazon listed the XBSX in stock on April 1, so I half heartedly threw in the order expecting to get trolled. But it arrived yesterday, much to my surprise. I decided to keep it for the moment - it does have a 4K Blu-ray player which i've been after for...
  19. Vertical mice

    So, I'm getting old. I can always tell when I've been on the computer too much. The same way I can tell a storm is blowing in. My wrist is shot. I don't think it's carpel tunnel, but the back of my hand and wrist area will burn like there's ghost pepper in my veins, and using a mouse for a long...
