Large Testicles posted:old paste doesn't gently caress with temps that much unless your poo poo was like crusty on the cpu it was solid and had to be chipped off. the paste being solid probably did cause loss of contact area between the heat sink and cpu. not sure how much would be due to that or thermal conductivity loss from the paste being old and hard as a rock. it was seated correctly the first time around because temps were also down around 40-50 and just crept up imperceptibly over the years

4K isn't fake, its a very real marketing strategy for selling more expensive displays and GPUs.

ideally people would recognize that it's too many pixels for games and not have resorted to upscaling extremely low resolutions up to 4k with blurry bullshit but we live in fuckin HELLWORLD

That is also part of the marketing strategy where Nvidia can now sell people DLSS to remove the extra pixels that they paid for.

MonsieurChoc posted:FFV rules. The new translation from gba onward gives it a Saturday morning cartoon charm, the job system rules and the soundtrack is great. There’s a I’ve seen the job fiesta threads before but only scanned. I’ll check it out again. docbeard posted:I'm glad someone thinks so! (Because I have more, brought to you by a minor bout of sleeplessness) It’s always those drat Zhents. I had no idea the Gold Box games had such robust storytelling. I think Neverwinter has to be used the most in CRPGs. Besides Baldur’s Gate, Luskan perhaps? Shadowdale is just too small I guess.

Ok, the ending of KOTOR is pretty boring, also a bit tedious. The whole Star Forge section is just waves of mooks, and not interesting. They repeat the whole act in Mass Effect too.

That part is still ok because there's still one lore dump left where they tell you that the Star Forge just sucks the force out of everyone and that's why the galactic empire of the builders collapsed and they reverted to squabbling island tribes on a single planet. Malak and Raven were complete morons and whatever they did with the Star Forge would eventually blow back on them.

I tried to Eco this week. I went onto a South Park themed weed server and set up a shack for basic hole digging. After setting up basecamp, only citizens can use the workbench and the admin sold skill scrolls for 500 Tokes which for me to get I'd have to sell him 7100 plant fibers. So..... that place can go gently caress itself. Looking for an Eco

Chants of Sennaar is a fun little puzzle game and I'm glad I gave the developers my $20 - only one puzzle in the whole game I felt was unfair and needed to cheese next up is maybe Cyberpunk but I just saw World of Horror 1.0 is up. anyone try it out yet?

Bro Dad posted:it was so rushed they forgot to add enemy animations, they just take damage without flinching like an xb1 game. assassinations consist of the target politely turning towards you before dying Cool, sounds like I'm skipping this one. I'm one of those sickos who likes the Ubisoft games where you just do all the map icons, so I was disappointed to hear this one was back-to-basics AC. Also that $45 price point makes it seem like they don't believe in it themselves. I'm dumb to say a game should cost more but when even a AAA developer isn't shameless enough to slap $60 on a product, it's a sign of problems.
