  1. I did not know, I will have to get deleting 👍
  2. Original GTA on PC you could enter cheat codes when typing your character name. If you entered ‘suckmyrocket’ you had all weapons in the game. Or ‘iamthelaw’ for no police. Trust Rockstar to get some humour in their cheat codes.
  3. It would be good for the GPU market to knock nVidia down a peg or two as their pricing for the higher end cards is just ridiculous. Though I'm not so sure AMD will go chasing those halo products in the GPU market for now. Sure, having a halo product gets their name out there more but it's the CPU market where the money is - more specifically HEDT and server CPU's. As that is the market they need to push and focus on, I don't see them really focusing on consumer GPU's for a few years.
  4. Yeah, competition in the cpu market is needed. Too long the CPU market stagnated due to Intel’s iterative upgrades due to no competition. Arguably they’re paying for it now though as AMD are smashing them and some of the rumours about 10th series sound bad. Though I hope few more years of AMD domination so the company is financially sound and they regain a decent market share.
  5. I hadn’t realised there had been perk changes too. I’ll have to check them out as reading that suggests you now can’t run ghost and overkill as they’re in the same perk.
  6. My vitiol in my other post aside, I’ll give it another go of two to properly judge though I’m not hopeful. I’d also like to try it in free for all as that was how I mostly played it in mw2.
  7. Yes, yes it can! I watched LTT’s video review on AMD’s Threadripper 3990x - a very modest 64 core 128 thread CPU 😂. The thing that got me about it though is they got it playing Crysis solely on the CPU! It is crazy how far AMD have come recently and how hard they’re spanking Intel. Skip to 10 mins in if you don’t want to watch the rest.
  8. I take it back, I take back everything bad I said about shipment. I’d rather pay 10 games of shipment than another one on rust.
  9. Boats and hoes. That is all.
  10. ooooooo I do love Kyoto in Gr3. I will definitely have to get on it at some point this week.
  11. Yes, the i5 is an all round faster and better cpu than your A10. If you’re not looking to do a full upgrade for a while then I’d say yes it’s worth getting a motherboard for. It will be hard to find stock due to the age but if you’re on a budget constraint I’d go for the cheapest you can find from one of the main brands (Asus, msi, asrock, gigabyte) that meet you requirements for sata ports for harddrives, sound output etc.
  12. That mother board looks alright 🙂 As for a cpu mother board combo, I’d say no. If you’re going to upgrade then it’s worth doing a proper upgrade. The problem is any more recent cpu’s worth upgrading to are all going to be ddr4 (whereas you’re ddr3). Which you aren’t going to do in your current budget. Any combo you could get in your budget would be a small upgrade and still on a dead upgrade path as it will also be ddr3.
  13. A general answer for now as without reading some reviews I can't recommend a specific one. The Z77 boards won't work as they're socket 1155 but your CPU is 1150. Socket 1150 needs a B87, H87, Z87 or H97 or Z97. The 97 boards were a refresh over the 87 board so have a few extra features. As a general rule the Z boards are the top tier come with everything and have a price to match, B boards are the low spec sacrifice areas to keep them as cheap as possible and H boards are somewhere in the middle. Some of the cheaper / smaller boards will only have 2 RAM slots so something to keep an eye on though I can't think of any consumer board that doesn't have a PCI-E lane so your GPU will fit whichever one you get. As for the cooler - they're not brand specific per se but they are socket specific. Most coolers come with an AMD bracket and Intel - though which intel depends. Some manufacturers will give / sell you other socket brackets which is easier and cheaper than buying a new cooler.
  14. Really?! Damn that is a nice brucey bonus upgrade.
  15. Nice one @Diddums It’s good it has been sorted so quickly too. @Plumbers Crack I better go refill all those fireworks then 😆
  16. If the rest are like Dragon Trail then they’re going to need some very fast times. Still, even if only gold times they pay 1mill so could buy some nice cars. Interesting you find the Lexus understeers as I find it more neutral with maybe a little oversteer. I think I’ll have to give Sardegna another go else it will always be my bogey track. A clean fast lap over the mountain is awesome and even more so with clean racing. Just a shame it is rarely clean 😞 Still ACC have just realised Mount Panorama so going to give that a go soon too as hopefully some cleaner racing on there.
  17. Phil Phil he’s our man! Be careful though, you’ll just get out of D, then want to move up so you’re secure in C. Then realise B isn’t too far away then you try to get out of C and start the process again. I’m not trying any of the races this week. I do love Mount Panorama but it’s too messy over the mountain. So decided to give the Hamilton dlc a go. Only tried Dragon Trail as it’s the track I know best. I’ve got within 1 tenth and I know I can do it but it is going to take an almost perfect lap from me.
  18. Imgur WWW.IMGUR.COM Imgur: The magic of the Internet Mmmm yeah, take it, take it 🤣
  19. It isn’t when you spawn in and the map has changed that annoys me. Well it does but it’s shipment so what are you going to do. Where it is beyond frustrating is to spawn in where someone is ads’ing then spawn in another 3 or 4 times in the same place.
  20. Second episode was a bit of "we'll get characters to really explain what is happening just to make sure you know what's going on" fest but on the whole another good one. Plus Peyton List is never a bad thing.
  21. It’s a standing offer mate so whenever you want.
  22. haha that is brilliant! Couldn’t happen to a nicer person.
  23. Lemmy had a distinctive voice and he certainly had presence but he didn’t have the power that Dickinson/Plant/Gillian et al have/had. Though I’d say Motörhead really fall into a different category to Iron Maiden, Zepplin, Deep Purple etc. On the subject of unique voices, it’s one of the reasons I like Joakim from Sabaton. Though also quite like cover
  24. My last (at least 3) mobos haven’t come with a speaker and I don’t remember one at Dave’s. Also Dave said he doesn’t hear a beep which usually there’s one to signify handing off to windows. Dave said on whatsap he tried a hdmi cable and that didn’t work either so a speaker would allow us to maybe have a better idea if whats going on. @Diddums can you remember if we set the pre oc ram settings?
  25. Enjoying some classic rock right now so rude not to share.
