I'm so far out of the hardware loop that I couldn't even tell you whether to go AMD or Intel anymore. So to that end I'll suggest selling the kid and pooling the money for his PC and going to Vegas instead.

Intel or AMD for a CPU is a little from column A and a little column B. On the top end, AMD releae a new chip and tale the lead, then Intel release a new chip and take the lead then rinse and repeat. More mid-range it gets a bit murkier as I’m not sure on the price to performance. I’m also not certain of prices in USD but for a similar budget here you could get something like a Ryzen 5600x or Intel 12400 with appropriate motherboard. I’d recommend 16Gb RAM with as fast as you can get, probably 3200MHz at minimum. I’d also recommend getting an M2 SSD as they’re super fast and you could re-use your existing drives as additional storage. PSU it depends what you end up speccing and future proofing you want to do. Once you have a rough idea of spec there’s plenty of PSU calculators online. I’d guess you’ll only probably need 500-600W at most. Though depending on how long you expect the PC to go for and if it will see futude GPU upgrades, it’s cheaper to spec higher watt one now than have to change in the future. Corsair, Seasonic and SuperFlower are generally the top brands but it does depend on specific models. Case, I’m sure you could re-use the existing one as not much really changes in cases design except for the addition of tempered glass and generally a reduction in hdd bays. So up to you on if you want to switch cases. GPU, I’d imagine you could get a RTX3060. Dependong on USD pricing and if you don’t want a case, you might be able to go for a 3070. Though even a 3060 is 4x or 5x faster than a 480 so would be a massive improvement. If you go on PC part picker you can spec a PC and share a link for us to look at. For some reason, on my phone, it defaults to UK so can’t put a US build together.

Hi Ally, we play on Monday Nights mainly. If you're interested I've put up an event, you can RSVP: https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/index.php?/events/event/916-monday-night-football-🏆/

My logistics journey continues slowly but surely. I’ve fully paid off my initial loan so it leaves me with just ~£4.5k a day to pay in loans. So, with no help from crashing and speeding tickets, I’ve saved enough to buy my second garage. Though I don’t yet have the money to buy any trucks to fill the second garage 😄 Only need to save ~£200k for the trucks so shouldn’t take too long. I’ve fully ranked up the long distance and high value on my drivers so now ranking up their hazerdous materials. Hopefully, once everything is fully ranked up they will start earning some better money. Though £4-£5k a day total isn’t to be sniffed at but it’d be nice to earn a little more to help towards more trucks and garages.

Hey folks, I'm Tove and am new around here, late 30s lifelong gamer dad. I'm mostly into FPS and Fighting games. Most recently playing the new call of duty and enjoying it at around 100 Hours in. I used to play a lot of Dead by Daylight but had to step away from that earlier this year and have spent most of it trying to find a new main multiplayer game which I seem to have found in MWII I thought it might be Overwatch 2 but the solo experience on that was just dire. I've been looking for somewhere to post and chat with others about gaming! So you might see more of me in the forums!

Welcome dude, whereabouts in SW? Add us on PSN, you can make us look good in CoD.

Thanks for the welcomes! I'm from South West UK

Hi trouble 👍

Thanks guys. I feel fine at the moment, just waiting to test negative to get the all clear to leave the house and take the dam mask off

I hadn't noticed that so far so thanks for sharing Kenny! Funnily enough though I believe there is an automatic setting that I seem to have switched on that helps me auto mount whenever i'm close to things so I've not had to worry too much about mounted kills just yet. I'm sure for the long range ones though I'll need this!

Can't believe Championship is slowly getting going again already, where has the time gone?? Hopefully the small break will help keep the league competitive way into next year. Its definitely been a mental year in the Championship as everyone is beating everyone. This is the year for some surprises in that top 6.

I recall you saying this and I think its a great option for a free game as its not shoddy by any means. Wish ME had the multiplayer side in it...

Some fantastic upsets just showing why football is loved so much being one of the most unpredictable sports in the world. Really hoping we can carry momentum into the Senegal game today. I really do think it will be a tough match and probably more stop/start than a full flowing game. Feeling positive still though so come on England!

Do I absolutely need to use a wheel for this? Just thinking sometimes to hop in here and there may be just a ballache getting my wheel out every time. I picked up the version with some xpacs that were on sale so all in all cost less than 10 quid. Just need to find some time to get on over some weekends so I can get used to it. Whats a good first objective to aim for?

Absolutely fucking disgusting behaviour tbh, who puts alcohol in a paper cup? 😡

Welcome to FG 🤘🏻

Episode 22 is LIVE!!! We talk about some choice decisions by Wyrmwood, a decent selection of freebies for PS Plus in December, Grounded, and my choice of games while I've been home sick all week.

Got the Icarus done today. The best gun in the game in my opinion. I needed to get the mantle kills done. I have a 2.1 K/D using that gun. Nothing else I have compares to it. Also did the SPR 208. I really like that gun too

Welcome to FG. Hopefully get some games in with you at some point.

Hey everyone, hope alls well, I’m interested in joining you all on pro clubs 🙂

Looking a lot better these days but I dunno if it's too late in the day. At least it'll give some confidence for the next title especially with all the staff associated with the OG 2042 literally all gone. The team that's taken over have done a pretty good job and there's been an upturn in players of late thanks to free weekends on Steam, discounts and people returning. Still needs a good 12 months to complete the overhaul I'd say and the guns really lack punch compared to COD now, but they may be able to salvage something and go out with some pride.

Hello and welcome

Thats awesome! I didn't know that I found that I was just mounting at every single corner when trying to get those challenges, I found mounting on crates in strategic areas on domination was quite useful. You can also mount on the deployable cover.

I lost 40lb and everyone was asking me why I chopped my winky off.

Good job on him losing weight etc, but he looked "better" heavier and with less surgical procedures. It's definitely a terrible picture tho I have to agree.

I think Tom @LordBaguette is doing the same thing. You'll probably find you'll only have the Gold challenge to do on some of the guns when you go back and check them.

Welcome to FG @Tove ! Nice to see more gamers join in on the fun here and online. Mw2 and OW2 are pretty solid in groups and we certainly play both of them of late. Definitely more fun that way too. Looking forward to seeing you around the other sections here and hopefully we'll try and get a few games online too soon! We hope you enjoy your stay at FG 👍

batttlefield has always suffered from execution problems I remember removing BF4 to come back to it a year later because it ran so poorly. After than it was awesome Didn't like any of them after that. DICE needs a kick in the ass to get developers to get it somewhat right the first time

My goodness that's hideous. I'm sure he has enough money to get it fixed again. The man looks ridiculous! 🤭

Welcome to FG Tove, you will enjoy it here. Lot's of cool people to chat and game with. MWII is very popular here at the moment. Hopefully we can catch some games dude. Whereabouts are you from?

Crazy that they have a fully functioning cash shop but haven't finished implementing solo yet or other simple features🤣 Game had quite a long and significant beta phase plus it's released with other issues on top. I may wait and then give it a try on Game Pass sometime.

So I have been working towards and picking up a few gold camos, mostly coming through gameplay and just trudging along with a gun until I get it ^_^ And just typing this out I realise I have a couple more than I realised. So far I have (just working through assault rifles at the moment as they are my preferred choices, imagine I will move onto SMG's next) - Taq-56 (Got this last night) M4 Kastov 762 STB-556 Kastov 545 I am now working towards the Kastov 74U which isn't too bad, I have 4 of the point blank kills that Lee said are a pain in the ass but I find these are ok if you manage to get the drop on someone and I have 10 of the 30 crouched kills. Maybe if I get the lacman 556 (have not used this yet) and the M16 which I haven't unlocked yet I will be able to look at platinums on the assault rifles before too long.

Yeah, I had to change my tactics playing solo, and sometimes just extract with what I have instead of pushing too much. That way I almost always extract. I do still take too many chances with the ai and need to avoid getting shotgunned in the back because I didn't check a corner... @James5497 let's definitely sort something out 👍

You said you weren't into DMZ but that will do it. You rank up weapons crazy fast in that mode. Have it as your insured weapon and go kill stuff. Plenty of vehicles to shoot too

I hope so, although we've had similar issues with Fifa 21 that persisted all the way through... This one is a major one though 😞

It ain't rained in Scotland for a week. A flood is coming, I can feel it. Need to fly Chris here with his Noah shoes to come build me an ark.

Way to support your team doug! That's just pathetic

Just seen that should moyes be sacked before the end of the season giggs is being tipped to take over until end of the season... Surely a real manager is better to have in charge than giggs?

How good is raheem sterling right now? England's secret weapon for the World Cup ATM...

Chelsea

Ooh Buckfast! Love that stuff!

That result on Sunday was amazing! Even better than the 4-0 against Everton, or the 5-1 against Arsenal, or the 0-4 against Spurs. Damn this has been a great season. But yeah i was pretty disappointed in the Sturridge dive. Suarez has cut that out, and the last thing we need is Sturridge bringing all the criticism back. Rest of the season should be exciting. The top 4 has already been decided, but the title is still up for grabs. Obviously Chelsea/City are the favourites, but Liverpool/Arsenal could still win it if a few results go their way! Regardless, Champions league football was the goal and it's looking like we'll get it!!

How about the Liverpool result eh eh! Great performance but UTD didn't help themselves yet again they just look lost and broken... Bit annoyed about the 3rd pen, there was no need for simulation, game was own and there were plenty more chances to follow, heck sturridge should have had a legitimate pen afterwards and no doubt would have gotten it had he not conned the ref previously...

Brian Laudrup was godly.

Chelsea want shaw aswell... And no doubt would offer more money...

63rd, FFS. I didn't know there was that many countries.
