    Motion Sickness - Thread

    As someone who lives with an inner ear condition I would echo the advice Cern provided above. Some games can be tuned with FOV, headbob or control options. For those that can't or simply don't work for you, definitely walk away as soon as you can. First person games tend to be the worst for...

    NVIDIA 4000 Series

    As stated above, cache doesn't help with the redued amount of VRAM, but it does help mitigate a narrower memory bus. From what I've read though it's massively inferior to just having a wider memory bus, but is presumably cheaper which is why nVidia do it this way now.

    Star Wars: The Acolyte

    The Sith went pretty much into hiding from Darth Bane onwards in order to grow their power in secret and strike when the time was right, i.e. with Palpatine. I appreciate the Expanded Universe is now non-canon, but pretty sure that Bane as a character still exists in the canon and that all sith...

    Baldur's Gate 3

    I found some +4 dexterity gloves on my playthrough, that and/or Astarion make your chances of sucess much higher, resulting in fewer lost lockpicks.

    Ghost of Tsushima - directors cut

    As an exclusive PC gamer, I had been hoping for this for a long time. Looking forward to it immensley.

    The last game you completed, and rating.

    Starfield 6/10. A very difficult game to rate this one. It was quite tedious in places, but somehow I did keep coming back to see it through, even though it felt like a slog. The dull main quest is offset by some interesting faction missions, and there is an awful lot to do. Without mods...

    **THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

    Yes, exactly the same for me, fine in games but browsing seems to trigger it.

    Skull and bones

    The Mrs and I tried the open beta for a few hours, but decided it is not for us. There's no real story as such, just picking up contracts from NPCs. As mentioned above, boarding consists of a brief cutscene rather than hand-to-hand combat. It seems you can only disembark from your ship in...

    RTX 3090ti RMA'd, B Grade 4070ti offered as a replacement

    While that is true, there is a difference between choosing to sell your property and being forced to replace it due to a fault. That said, I think both the offer of a ~£1K refund or the 4080 Super that was agreed in the end was a fair outcome. The OP just shouldn't have had to push to get an...

    Docking station

    @Gepetto - THIS is the USB switch I currently use, the same company make a large range of genuine KVM switches too.

    Docking station

    I use exactly the same setup as ED209 above and it works beautifully. Years ago (in the analogue and DVI interface days) I had a dedicated KVM switch, but in modern times switches that support displayport are expensive, and in general don't play well with G-sync or Freesync. Using the monitor...

    ****Star Wars: Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker - Official Thread****

    Agree with this. 9 didn't have much hope as it had to clean up the mess ep. 8 had created, but 9 still turned out to be a better (but still not great) film. The Last Jedi is one of the worst films I have ever seen IMO, the fact that it was a Star Wars film was even more unfortunate.

    Show us your kitty cats

    You'd think both of them going to the vets would help in that respect. Hopefully things will improve soon, but the only other advice I can give is don't force it and help them reintroduce slowly if you can. Feliway plugs can help soothe things too.

    Show us your kitty cats

    @ED209 - This is quite normal in my experience when one cat returns from the vets. In an extreme case when one of our cats as hospitalised for a week it took fully two weeks for our other two cats (one of which was his brother) to accept him again. I think it's just down to the scent of the...

    AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D Cache Eight Core 4.5GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail - Go Go Go xD

    @Andromeda1983 - Yes, have a 90w PPT Limit set for my 5800X3D over the summer months, and this works fine on the board in my sig.

    **Star Wars Outlaws Open World Star Wars game from Massive Entertainment**

    Think that was Star Wars 1313 which was set entirely on the lower levels of Coruscant. As for Outlaws, it appears interesting, but dissapointingly looks like no co-op. Was hoping for a sort of The Division but in Star Wars type game.

    The AMD Driver Thread

    Interesting, thanks. Wasn't aware of this, but very handy for anyone using home edition.

    The AMD Driver Thread

    ^ I use this approach myself, but be aware that you can only modify group policy settings on Pro and Business editions of Windows 11, there is no Group Policy Editor in home editions.

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    Can confirm Afterburner 4.6.5 Final now includes power monitoriung for 7900XT/XTX. Prior to that was using the HWinfo plugin for Afterburner, but it was slower to update the power numbers in the overlay.
