Re: Roberts Space Industries

I gave this another go yesterday seeing as how I should be able to run it decently now. Walking around the hangar is fine, but as soon as I try any of the training missions the game start stuttering and freezing no matter what graphical setting it's on. There seem to be various reasons for it but no...

Yeah, there wasn't much else in the box but I'll get an adapter just to be sure.

Re: Dying graphics card?

New graphics card has been got alarmingly fast, but upon installing I noticed it had a 8-slotted power supply and I only have two 6-pronged ones. I tried it anyway and it seems to work, but is this something I should be worried about?

Re: Is it a good time to upgrade, bitches?!

Sounds like I made the right choice. I was initially going for the 960 due to budget but decided to save just a bit longer because of the aforementioned guffawing and therefore had some extra dosh.

Turns out I can't. The Johnson Christmas dinner will be crackers and American cheese this year.

People seem to be pretty excited about this one:

Re: Is it a good time to upgrade, bitches?!

A you can see in the other tech thread it's more than likely my graphics card is hella dead. I was going to wait till after New year to buy a new one but looks like it'll be a Christmas gift for myself instead. FJ recommended the 960 GTX, but after hearing Grimmie and Shada guffaw about the 970 I'm ...

Re: Dying graphics card?

Okay, off to the update thread I go.

I'll run OCCT to be sure, but I needed a new graphics card anyway so maybe it's not all bad.

Re: Dying graphics card?

Testing ram now, but in case it's the GPU, will changing my graphics card fix that? Or are we talking about the shiny silver square in the middle of my motherboard? (legit computer terms)

Oh, and there's an array of red lights on my graphics card, I'm not sure those were shining there before.

Dying graphics card?

Yesterday, whilst playing a quick late night game of rocket league that I was most certainly winning, my screen had a lot of pink squares on it and suddenly froze. I decided it was a worry for tomorrow as it was late. Turns out it was more of a worry than I thought it would be as now I couldn't boot...

Re: Movie mini reviews

Incidentally I also gave that a go after Buzz recommended it a few posts ago. I'm not a huge fan of cringe humour* but sometimes it works. In this case it worked, I liked it enough to say "This is bullshit, vampires don't do dishes!" every time I do the washing up. Mrs. J still thinks that...

We're making this pretty complicated so if you can't separate it Pants can have the whole lot.

Really? I had to buy him. Maybe he came with reaper of souls, I bought that after I got Diablo in HOTS.

Anyway, if no one else will take the skin or wants a free diablo then I'll take it.

Re: Heroes of the Storm

I'm tempted. I can't really afford skins and such at the moment so I would be grateful but I already got a free lili from Anery last time. Maybe Bits would like it?

Re: Game Videos

As I casually mentioned yesterday:



It bothers me a bit that it's crowdfunded but I'm not sure why as they got half their backer money already and it's only for a part of the funds.

Also it's the god damn psychonauts sequel so shut up and take my money Tim! (again)

It's more like magicka mixed with an RTS by the looks of it. Could be fun, but I'll wait for a sale to buy it.

Re: Movie Trailers

Don't watch this if you don't want a big chunk of plot spoiled. Seriously. It's another trailer that's given too much away. That's true, but I guessed the entire plot well before I saw the trailer. That said, this is the first trailer that makes me actually interested in seeing it. Sweeped off the ...
