  1. I think the days of PC master race power are gone. Aside from some limited developers going full Crysis now and then just about everything is tuned to where the consoles thrive.... It is a sad, sad state of affairs anymore. It may only get worse going forward. Anything tuned at or a little above the current consoles should thrive for a while... go 1.25 times performance over that and you're good for a long while. When does the PS6 release? It may still lack the performance of today's peak pc hardware...
  2. I think you've already solved the use case then... anything modern, even mid-grade annihilates the frame rates on older titles. Under these conditions I would stick to reliable performance as opposed to beta testing hardware and serving as a customer service incentive statistic.
  3. I would recommend aiming for a nice 1440p monitor that works at a high refresh rate. I'm also seeing better prices on packaged, pre-made PCs than parting out. Just find a brand that is friendly for DIY upgrades. You'll get more bang for your buck and you don't get sucked into the 4k/8k bs. High-refresh 1440p with all of today's graphics tech is fantastic. Also much more affordable. I game on a 150" 4k/1440P projector that runs at 144hz. Even at that size the smoothness and additional bells and whistles I can run at 1440p make the experience much better than 4k freesynced to anything 60-90hz.
  4. Nice! Jaws reference 4tw. I felt similar when I finally found a manual for my copy of MUSHA after all this time.
  5. Well said, I'm in this mindset. I've got a host of the old comic books, novels, games, etc... I think some of these Xenos are behaving precisely as shown and described. It's been fun and stupid at times, but mostly fun.
  6. Well, we know what happened to the rich.
  7. My plan is to display the Sentinel Legioss + Tread in fighter and the Pose + in soldier. Assuming we get a green tread :P.
  8. Authentic manual secured. Expensive, but it's almost complete.
  9. It may be plausible that all of these events are happening concurrently due to the length of time for space travel/hypersleep/etc, right? Or maybe that's a stretch based off past canon analysis.
  10. Broke down and used BBTS. There are a handful of sites that are advertising a lower price, but no interaction with tariffs. We'll see how it goes, but I've ordered other stuff from BBTS and it worked out OK.
  11. Watched the first 2. Enjoyed them greatly... I like the new creepy crawlies. Can't wait for episode 3.
  12. Just did the same. You are not alone.
  13. Check this one out... $899.00 5060ti. https://www.microcenter.com/product/696587/asus-tuf-gaming-t500-(2025)-t500mv-ms564ti-desktop-pc
  14. AND it comes with Picard's teacup and Riker's trombone...
  15. Bittersweet considering this year. I never realized the fin from the Batman Forever batmobile was that enormous, lol. Happy Birthday to one of the coolest dudes on the forum!
  16. My Ally X + eGPU solution destroys every game at my projector's 1440p 120-144hz point. In most games even 4k above 60hz is good, too. All I'm waiting for is a TB5 dock.
  17. If I had a dime for each time I've heard this or said it myself I'd have two whole stuffed crust pizzas. Awesome pickup!
  18. Another C hit the market @ Mandarake. I'd snag it, but need to cool my rockets or my wife is going to wombo-combo me. Maybe someone here can find it a home.
  19. I think I'm in for this 13" tall Legioss - already worked up the spot in the hex case. Regarding the tread - has there been any rumbling of an Iota version?
