    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    If it any consolation - I've built PCs for decades and still get caught out occasionally by something not immediately working. The golden rule is to put everything together in the most loose way possible and ensure that it works first. Once done, you can then spend time on the tidying up of...

    Senua's Saga: Hellblade II

    One of the main reasons why I gave up on Gears 5. The incessant talking during the campaign - assuming that's similar to what you mention?

    Been a long time but don't we all return to these???

    To be expected really - next year will see the 20th anniversary of the last 182s made. It's difficult to justify the expense for most people on a small French hatch. There will be minters out there of course - or ones that have had a lot of time and effort spent on them. I personally think...

    Fallout 4 Next Gen Update

    If you're on PC, it might be cheaper just to rebuy the GOTY Edition off cdkeys?

    Fallout 4 Next Gen Update

    Ah, that was part of the 'Fanatec Delivery DLC'. It literally removed availability of all items within the game to zero.

    Fallout 4 Next Gen Update

    Seems locked at 71fps on my PC at 1440 - regardless of what happens onscreen. I assume that there may have been some mods previously that allowed it to go higher? Speaking of frame-rate - I had a strange one on PGA 2K23 recently. It sits at 144fps throughout, but despite that, appeared...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Ah, no worries - it certainly won't be a slouch in any sense. I've got the AM4-based Ryzen 7 5800X3D, paired with 64GB DDR4 (a bit silly and overkill - I certainly don't use all of that) and an RTX3090. I've got two NVMe drives - 1x 2TB PCIe 4.0 and 1x 1TB PCIe 3.0. I install games on both...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Quite the opposite really. Just get the biggest and best NVMe drive you can and chuck the lot on. The established commercial benefits of having a smallish server OS drive and then having a large drive for apps or log files makes sense. But in a home environment - not so much. Unless you're...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    I did some speed comparisons in the post below. https://www.cliosport.net/threads/the-power-pc-thread-f-ck-off-consoles.691585/post-12450156 The PCIe x4 drive is certainly quicker - and I'd recommend getting that, if your mobo supports it.

    Clio 182 wishbones

    If you need your car on the road Sam, I know someone who is breaking a black gold 182 with no visible signs (from the pictures I've seen) of impact damage. Just an option to leave yours on for now - nab those off this car and get them prepped and fitted with new bushes perhaps?

    Old Games Collections.

    They certainly are. But I guess at the time and as a kid, you perhaps don't really know that? I remember back in 1980/81, we borrowed an Atari 2600 from a close family friend. I'd never seen or played with anything like it and being around 6 years old at the time, moving objects on the screen...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Yey. So if the new owners produce iCUE software at over a gig in size - I wonder what size of TB drive I'll need just to operate a future driver for my Fanatec wheel? ;)

    He most definitely should do - his insurance premium alone should tell him what the difference was. ;)

    197 steering wheel in a 182

    Sounds like a lot of effort - but worth it for the end result. Oh, and Kudos Points for the thread revival age-gap too!

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Had them delivered today from Lithuania - all in official Renault packaging. Got the trim tools and had them popped out and replaced within minutes. Look much neater now. Thanks again. (y)

    Clio 182 Turbo

    The end result looks great above. I take it that you popped the front bumper off rather than spray them on the car itself? Do the grille sections and fog surrounds pop-out of the bumper itself or are they fixed in place? Questioning it as I do need a front bumper and bonnet refresh at some...

    Clio 182 Turbo

    Interested to hear how you get on with painting the panel and the wiper arms. Mine are looking a bit shabby too.

    Fallout 4 Next Gen Update

    Less that 4 hours into a save game on Steam from a while back. Think I might restart it now with this update applied.

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Kind of a weird blessing in disguise. Mine have had condensation in them for years - but the top covers seem the most flimsy of things to stay on. Having new ones should freshen them up nicely.

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Spotted one on Amazon - £45 for one?? Silly pricing.

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Nice one - I'll nab a pair of those - thanks! edit - order now placed.

    Replacement side indicator covers?

    Looks like I've lost an indicator cover off the front wing and tbh - could probably do with replacing both. I swapped out the awful orange originals probably 15+ years ago - so would be after another set of clear ones - or very mild grey tint. Having looked online, there appears to be some...

    Battery powered impact driver

    None mate - I don't have any power tools like that. Other than the usual hammer drill and a sander.

    Battery powered impact driver

    Hi all, Just after a recommendation of the subject header really. Would only have occasional use just to assist with general car maintenance - nuts, bolts removal, etc. Not airline/compressor powered. Cheers, D.

    Fallout 4 Next Gen Update

    The rocky road of my Fallout history... Wasteland - started it all, still my most influential game of all time. Fallout - tried and tried with that - found it too testing for my patience. Unforgiving and difficult. Fallout 2 - never really progressed with it due to me not sticking with the...

    Lugs underneath the back seat?

    Cheers all - I'll have a look into this further. @Matt Cup - thanks for pointing that out, I didn't even look at that carpet section on the photo. (y)

    Lugs underneath the back seat?

    Hi all, Can anyone confirm what these lugs are beneath the rear seat please? This is on the passenger side. The rearmost one appears to be leaking water in slightly when driving in rainy conditions?
