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 🙂

We went out to California again, visiting the in-laws in Anaheim and taking the opportunity to go back to Death Valley and the Mojave Preserve. We didn't get to do everything I'd hoped due to flood damage closing some roads and trails, but we did get to see things we hadn't done last time. I couldn't sneak my Power Wagon into checked bags so I made due with a rental Ram Classic 1500 4x4. Only one hill was a little sketchy, it did everything else without drama, though I did get a little nervous on one section of softer sand. My wife wanted to stop for a photo but I was afraid we wouldn't be able to get going again if I lost momentum and I didn't want to rely on random Jeep Bros to help us out, though I'm sure they would have. Those are all from Death Valley. Temps were in the 60s most of the day, colder at higher elevations and warmer at lower elevation, so we did a lot more hiking the canyons and trails then last time. We stayed in the park again, but this time at The Ranch at Death Valley. Nice hotel, terrible restaurant. Avoid. Drive to Beatty NV or at least to Stovepipe Well village in the park, much better food. Various places in the Mojave Preserve, including the Lava Tubes, which was the main goal for the day. These photos were taken on the trail network behind my BIL's house. At least 18 miles of trails that start about 2 blocks from his back door. I think the last rock formation looks like a mummy, but some have said nun or mermaid when I showed it to them. I have a ton of other photos, but many are too big for my free host to accept and share. We went to Huntington Beach and climbed around on the rocks, found tidal pools with sea urchins and other little sea creatures living in them, went to the Santa Monica pier, and several other little day trips. I have to say I've rarely met anyone as nice and nobody more generous as my BIL that we stayed with. He's the one who donated 2/3 of his liver in a futile attempt to save SIL's life. Just a genuinely incredible guy and we got along great the entire stay. MIL was still there and of course that was great. I met two more BILs I hadn't met before, but work schedules and distance kept us from spending a lot of time together. All in all, a really great trip.

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.

Id never thought id the see day someone would be writing threads about Simon Cowell on this forum

I've played it on SteamDeck and on PC, all control methods are fine, kb&m, controller or wheel are all good.

I’d say a wheel is easier simply to do the long curves and lots of buttons for things. Though I’d imagine you can do it on a controller reasonably well. As for first objective, in the beginning you can only take paid jobs as you don’t have a truck of your own. You can either keep doing them to earn enough to get your own truck or you can take out a loan to do so. Once you have your own truck you can start taking your own jobs.

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.

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?

Someone I work with mentioned this to me last week, as they were excited about an impending update version. I'd never heard of it and had to google it...but apparently its a very highly rated old game. I'm also tempted!

Happy to play this for free on gamepass but is lacking a number of important features. Can't play solo and no crossplay between xbox and Steam. Shooting and movement feels good, if very similar to Vermintide. In fact it's essentially a very good reskin of the Verminite games but I'll wait for it to be finished before I consider spending any money and buying it.

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.

I think it's more DMZ specifically. 💀 Warzone 2.0 will soon add popular Metal Gear Solid feature WWW.GAMINGBIBLE.CO.UK The feature was spotted by one eagle-eyed player.

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 😞

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?

I still think it's stupid, people need more time, yes it may be the same team as last years title winning side but I still look at that squad and think there are very few top quality players, it's a very average squad all round in my opinion apart from the strike force if it was fully fit... Managers need more time to build there own team, even if SAF was there still I would see this UTD side struggling...

Almost every game over the past 4-5 days has had a 1 minute silence before kickoff, really nice gesture even after all this time, and all the 1s I saw have been really good, so quiet and peaceful...

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

Chelsea

I fucking hate Chelsea! I knew they would win and I even texted my brother saying it would be a 2-0 win... But still, it's the whole anti football tactic that prevails once again... They will probably win the whole thing again playing like it aswell...

Can't wait for tonight's game! I reeeeeaaaaallly hope Ibrahimovic turns up...

Was banned for like 6 games aswell...

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!!

Wednesday is make or break for UTD... Come back and win you could get some momentum and beat spurs to 5th. Lose, and that club falls apart, moyes would probably go... However I'm struggling to think of who would take over... I bet a return for SAF would be the bookies favourite...

Vidic to inter Milan end of the season...

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

Ugly Delap.
