GPU Usage 40%

What is your monitor resolution? And online games like FFXV are going to be very CPU usage heavy.

Grim Dawn Forgotten Gods expansion is out

I found both Titan Quest and Grim Dawn boring to start, but once you start advancing, and replaying new characters, both got a lot more addictive. I like seeing how characters evolve and getting to know how to make the most of my characters. At first, these games are a little overwhelming, and...

The anti-DRM thread

Whether it's a scam or not, doesn't change what an MMO is. And the terms MMO and RPG are not related. MMO's don't have to be RPG's and RPG's don't have to be MMO's. Their meaning is unrelated. It's quite hard to have a conversation if you won't stick to the proper definitions. That said...

The anti-DRM thread

Ya, D3 was online to prevent cheating and as a DRM, but ya, it's no MMO.

The anti-DRM thread

Let me help you here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massively_multiplayer_online_game A couple key points are the 100's to 1000's on the same server (guild wars might have 5 players per server, same with PoE). Large persistent worlds is another key that those games lack. You go into...

The anti-DRM thread

You just don't understand what an MMO is, and what a coop game is. I played through the transition, and there is a pretty big difference. Obviously you don't want to understand the difference, but there is a large one. One that anyone who has played both would understand. Even PoE is...

Two kinds of anti aliasing on at same time for graphics quality?

Most types of AA don't work together at the same time, but there are some exceptions. If you find it better is personal opinion. I have used a mix of AA, and I've done it from within the game settings, and sometimes a mix of outside options. There are 3 categories of AA, which you can mix...

The anti-DRM thread

Let's get a few things straight. Guild wars is not an MMO. It was an upgrade to the Diablo style of game. The cities were just game rooms where people try to setup games and enter a zone to play. They only allowed a few people in them, and spawned new rooms as they became over loaded. I'm...

What games do you want to see getting a remake the most?

I'd think the Wing Commander series and Privateer would make good for good remakes, if they haven't already had some sort of remake already (if so, let me know).

I am thinking a Dragon Age: Origins style remake. A FPS version wouldn't be a remake at all.

Question GTX 1080 VS RTX 2060 at same price. Which one to pick for 1440p 144hz?

Just because your monitor supports 144hz doesn't mean you need 144 FPS to justify it. Most those monitors include G-sync or Freesync, making them great for the variable refresh rates alone. Even without variable refresh rates, 144hz makes things a lot smoother for lower FPS as well, without...

News Intel GPUs - Falcon Shores cancelled

It won't mean people stop gaming, it just means more people will use lower settings.

News Intel GPUs - Falcon Shores cancelled

It would seem to me, there is a good reason people are buying up the stack. If you want meaningful improvements, you have to, as cards are not increasing in performance like they used to.

What are you playing now? [Chat + Discussions]

This has an interesting conversation. I've found myself resistant to start playing new games simply because I don't feel like going through the trouble of setting up my G13 keys and/or learning the UI layout. I wonder how often this slows people down from switching between new games. Way back...

What are you playing now? [Chat + Discussions]

PoE is like GuildWars. Only the hub cities have uninvited people around, and even those areas are limited to a certain number of players, after which they spawn a new copy of the hub city. The part I don't like about PoE, is that those in the standard version that have played a long time, have...
