What happened to the CPU and GPU upgrade? 😂

I hope it was your wife that parked like that...

I've got a dab Kenwood and just use Bluetooth to play whatever music app I want on my phone. It can skip tracks using the headunit, and if I really want something else on I can just tell the phone to play it. Not sure why you'd want a touchscreen in that place on a Clio, it's far from ideal.

I went from a 6700k to a 11600k last year and finally upgraded my 1070 to a 3070ti this month. So much better knowing you're not going to hit bottlenecks with the CPU in some of the newer games.

I can't see availability of the new cards being amazing when they first release tbh. You'd be looking at waiting longer than a few months. The 7000 series processors are due to release later this year too. If you're happy with what you have then wait, if not then maybe just do the GPU now.

5600x is a good budget option that won't bottleneck, but the 5800x is the better option. Only really need one of the 59** CPUs if you're planning on doing something more intensive than gaming. Thermal Grizzly is decent paste, I've used that and I've got Arctic MX at the moment. No issues with...

Big ears? Tough break.

They're both f**king massive.

Turns out the Godzilla/Kong mode isn't too bad, nowhere near as annoying as that Krampus thing.

Wow. You've had zero luck with this one! Hopefully you'll actually be able to drive it soon without the dash turning into a disco.

It's the Intel Lan port that has issues. My Gigabyte board has the same one and it's a pain.

I gave up with mine and use a usb adapter now 😅

I've had fun (not) the last couple of days getting a 3070ti to run properly in my new build. I ended up reducing the power supply to the GPU in MSI afterburner and it finally runs well. Just a small improvement over the old 1070 it replaced. The old one... The slightly bigger new one...

It was the noise that gave me a headache. Constant droning is not good.

Decats are just noisy and stink, mine used to give me a headache. Absolutely no advantage to having one fitted.

I've got some bits I need to get rid of if anyone is interested. Asus Z170i Pro Gaming Motherboard i7-6700k 16gb 2666MHz Corsair Vengeance LPX RAM Corsair RM650i PSU Corsair Pro PSU Cable Kit - Black NZXT H210i Case x 2 (One used, one unopened)

I've got similar in mine, works a treat.

If you buy a new mobo when they change the socket type then you can be pretty sure it'll support 2 generations of CPUs. That's how it's been for quite a while now.

Does this mean another update? I spend more time updating this game than playing it 😅

That will most likely be single point injection, much like the saxos etc. of the same age.

Only just seen this, love the work you've done so far!

Booked for the Saturday, might see if the missus wants to go too - I'll need someone to pass me snacks whilst driving.

That reminds me...I need to sort out selling my 6700k!

You can 100% upgrade to a 6700k from a 6600 - they both use the same socket type. I had a 6600k which I swapped out for a 6700k.

I saw something about Activision taking engine owning to court over it.

Love it 😂

Had a quick go last night as my lad was playing it. Looks nice on the One X, so I think I'll have to download it on the PC too.
