    Any recommendations for good 2 player co-op?

    We started a second go at it about a year later having had such fond memories. We found the best way to play it was to remove loads of the aids such as the mini-map and being able to tag enemies. I forget what else we changed but removing these bits sticks in my mind as greatly enhancing the...

    Low-profile cooler for i9-12900K

    That’s interesting. I’ll look into throttling and see if that solves my issue. I’ve taken the case apart and I reckon the clearance will be almost 150mm (the specs say 115mm) so that also opens up my options.

    Low-profile cooler for i9-12900K

    Possibly an AIO, as you suggest. If not, I’ll change the case.

    Low-profile cooler for i9-12900K

    I’ve not thought of throttling it, that’d seem like a waste of its capabilities. It’ll be used exclusively for gaming.

    Low-profile cooler for i9-12900K

    I have a 4U case that supposedly can only handle a 115mm cooler height. Are there any low-profile solutions that would handle the heat of a i9-12900K or am I going to have to come up with a different plan? Thanks.

    Thanks, so only 8 required buy all 12 does no harm.

    Satisfactory Alpha release

    I’m in the same boat. So much seems to be added at every update that I decided to wait until release. Ideally I’d like to wait until they (hopefully) add proper controller support so I can play from my sofa rather than at a desk.

    CPU power connectors

    I’m putting together a system that has the following: Gigabyte Z690 Aurora Elite DDR4 motherboard. Intel 12900K CPU I bought a Seasonic G-12 GC-850 motherboard to power the system. The motherboard manual shows the following CPU connections: There seems to be both a 4-pin and an 8-pin...

    "simple" FPS games

    Thanks, I’ll bear that in mind. I played the original Operation Flashpoint when it was released over 20 years ago and loved it in spite of its rough edges. I’ve tried ARMA and ARMA II but always found them to be great in their ambition but flawed in execution. I remember sinking hours into one...

    Arctic Circle Road Trip (late Oct 24 plan)

    -10 won’t feel as cold as you might imagine, the dry air is crisp rather than that damp cold we often get here. As you say, layers are your friend rather then some massive duffel coat. Unless you'll be standing around, in which case maybe a big coat might be good.

    Band of Brothers Rewatch

    If you haven’t got the Blu-ray, I’d imagine Prime is in HD which might be a better option than SD DVD.

    What Virtual Reality games are you playing?

    VTOL VR. I only came to this game/sim about a month ago and it's a work of genius from the one-man develpment "team". The fact that it was built for VR only means that it never feels clunky. Coop missions with my brother in the front seat of the helicopter are fantastic.

    Password managers! (Fed up of lastpass!)

    I went from KeyPass to Bitwarden and it's done me well.
