    Breaking Dad's Big Bad Gaming Discussion - For all things to do with PC Gaming !

    I'm actually loving Starfield, it's not perfect, it's very Bethesda, a bit tricky to navigate in places , lacking in any kind of tutorial but still for me throughly enjoyable. I really wanted to like Elite Dangerous having been Deadly rank in the 80s on the BBC Micro. I found the ship so...

    Anyone using a Philips Hue?

    How about a flashing red living room bulb when there is a new Merlin update? The wife will just love that. I'm all in and all hued up.

    Yeah I would stick with 1415, which seems pretty solid, until 1516 is out of beta.

    I did look at logitech, their mice are amongst the best you can get but their keyboards have proprietary Romer G switches, which the public seem split on. My gut tells me to stick with the devil I know - Cherry MX, and avoid proprietary switches, so I am still hovering over the TKL K70 Corsair...

    With respect I kindly refer you to post #206 "Agree to disagree, it's as futile as discussing apple vs android with an apple fan." You had a bad AMD laptop and now you hate them, I get it :) I didn't all my AMD systems have been top notch stable, cheaper, faster and more efficient. Each...

    I would get the Deck as well, on paper the Ally is faster etc, runs windows; in theory allowing the use of more store fronts. But it's using Asus's Armoury Crate as a launcher on top of 11 , and anyone who has ever used that trash bloatware will understand why I don't want to use that. That's...

    Interestingly I performed a rather unscientific test, I went to https://humanbenchmark.com/ and ran the reaction test, at my age I wasn't expecting anything amazing, I was hitting around 250ms (the average for a human) on my standard office dell pc at work. So I wondered how I would fare at...

    As have cpubenchmark, at least 15 years. Nothing against Intel tbh, but to avoid turning the thread into a silly amd vs intel thread just going to know the facts in my head and keep the mouth closed. Hopefully we can revert to peripheral talk again, or talk game ports being dire rn :)

    I have two Asus Rog 27inch Panels, one is 165hz the other is 144hz, both 2560 x 1440, both full gsync, both 1ms response TN Panels. My keyboard is a TKL HyperX Alloy, with Cherry MX Red Switches, I did have blue full size hyperX alloy for a while, however I prefer red as a nice balance of...

    Best powerline Ethernet adapters tested?

    Agree TP-Link AV2000 work flawlessly in our house, not the fastest, but very stable.

    Finally new asus bios non beta is out that seems to fix all the issues. Warranty nonsense removed as well.

    To be fair I've not experienced any issues with any ASUS motherboard, and I've used a lot of them over the years. They have all lasted right until the end and been hammered, abused and had everything thrown at them. The Issue with the soc voltage imo has become so overblown (pun not intended)...
