If the 30 series is overpriced like the 20 series then nvidia can piss off and I'll switch to Radeon as soon as they release high end cards. PM me your steam I'll add you later. I played the Halo 3 pc beta btw and it was awesome, buttery smooth. So I wasn't 100% happy with the performance on first impression. Had a look at my rig and decided that the one thing it was missing was a decent SSD. Just installed an M.2 boot drive and it's fucking flying now. Games run soooooooo much better with the extra data transfer speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazey Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Bought Doom Eternal to see how it ran compared to my XBox and I'd say it's quite the improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have recommended these before. I recommend them to everyone because they're criminally underrated. Each of them have a lot of heart and are now cheap. Lol I have these three in my backlog to play. I tried Binary Domain with my Xbox One controller but turns out it doesn't support it, ended up accidentally resetting my C drive trying to get it to work I have a 360 controller so I'll get around to it at some point.

SoulMonster Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Playing around with my new computer. Civilization VI is nice and all, and I love the game, but I want something to flex the muscles a bit. Downloading Doom now (used to play that one back in the 90s). Any good?

Two things: 1. I am abysmally bad. I tried Rainbow Six at the "newbie" mode and the first thing I did was drop a bomb at my feet and the next was to detonate it. A few laconic comments followed from my team mates before I disconnected. 2. My gaming friends have been cheering when I finally bought a proper PC and now wants me to play some pirate game with them. But as soon as I have shaped up a bit and given my mates some quality time on the oceans, I am in! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazey Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) They’ve just announced the 3080 and it’s 50% faster than a 2080Ti for about half the price. Fucking hell I’m going to have to sell my 2070 Super now. 🤮😭 https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/watch-nvidias-rtx-3080-rip-and-tear-the-2080-ti-at-4k-in-doom-eternal/ Edited September 4, 2020 by Dazey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nvidia made everything else obsolete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m considering a 2080Ti but I’m not sure if it’s enough of an upgrade for the cost. Rig upgrade.

Assuming I can find some bloody stock I'll be getting a SeriesX this year and then in 2 maybe even 3 years once the prices have normalized I'll go full retard and buy a state of the art $10K PC and hook it up to my 50inch 120hz TV. My 1080Ti is still managing to soldier on in the time being. Woo hoo! Working! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
