Intel got on board with it and sells unlocked CPUs as premium for gamers, years ago. Pretty sure mine can I've just been lazy.

I mean poo poo they sell premade watercooling rigs now too.

I mean, its free performance just left on the table. We do not know why a chip failed validation at certain speeds/voltages. Whatever failure it experienced might never even be encountered. Is it gamebreaking gains like back in Ye Old Days? No, but that extra 3-4% could be the difference between hitting your framerate cap or not.

MSI Afterburner has a new function to automatically find your max clock rates. It's pretty neat.

I've never bothered looking into OCing this thing, might be worth a shot.

My 1070 has been OC since I got it and it still keeps up with literally everything I play, I feel like it will be fine for at least another year

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?

Man, I wish I'd had all the MSI Afterburner functionality y'all are talking about back in my stupid hardcore-OC days.

Then again, I wish I'd had my current level of common sense and financial responsibility back in, like, 2004 as well. Welp.

/edit:

Don't ask me how well my first "community-sourced" compressor cooling went.

I played through MoH Airborne somewhat recently and it was strange how old school it still was despite coming out after shooters started to change up their mechanics quite a bit.

Yeah, you can see a lot of design elements you wouldn't see nowadays, especially in levels 4 and 5. That goddamn Nijmegen rocket bridge and the way they just drop you into the middle of no less than ten snipers going into level 5.

reviews are out now. Famitsu gave it 38/40, everyone is saying that its fantastic and nintendo fixed nearly all the gripes from the previous games

moh airborne was legit a cool shooter and i loved the drop in function for levels.

it worked super well imo and i liked being able to do objectives in whatever order

i played a bunch of the MOH games and that's really the swan song of the series, its def worth grabbing cheap on a steam sale if you wanna play a 360/ps3 era shooter that did cool things

I believe so yeah. Seems arbitrary and each account on the switch should have the option to their own island
