Some new features in Windows 10 v2004, it seems...

Nice to hear of another old-timer Clio being resurrected and looked after. How is the underfloor and cills on a car that's been Down Under for two decades? Pretty free of rust?

Yeah - as @McGherkin says - there are plenty of us on here. If you ignore the likes of iRacing, there really are three main contenders for racing games on the PC right now. Project Cars 2 is a good balance between serious driving and arcade feedback. It’s instantly playable out of the box too...

The worst I've seen was at the home of one of our director's. He had a converted barn and one room was separated from the rest of the house by a solid brick wall - it was part of the original outer wall of the barn itself. Nothing that we tried could get through it - and the router was...

This is the thing. Although it could vary how you get from A to B - you're adding a lot of extra steps into the 'chain' of communication with wireless. Encryption, decryption, interference through building materials, proximity to appliances such as microwaves, distances between the wireless...

Yeah - even with fairly thick bevels at the edge of the screens, somehow your eyes see past those to appreciate the three-screen view. I don't spend enough time on racing games to justify the trio, unfortunately.

Tell you what though - back in late March, numb-nuts here thought he could work from home using his own 27" monitor - and that I wouldn't really require all three monitors from work. How wrong was I! I'd dread to think of the amount of time wasted in minimising/maximising screens, dragging...

You’d have no trouble with that. Mine is set to 144hz at 1440 on my 1080.

Yep - don’t bother with additional AV at all. Although you can still be caught out as such, I think user education is far more useful than weighing down your OS with additional layers of software checks and validation. It also makes it more difficult to assess what’s the core issue if you have...

Hence my personal preference for a decent monitor. Our TVs are Samsung shite - but I'd be more gutted if anything happened to my PC monitor!

You're not running via DisplayPort by the looks of it - but this is worth a shot https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/nv-uefi-update-x64/ Stopped the flickering and flashing black screens that I got on mine about 85hz. 144hz was a lottery. Didn't matter if I used a basic cable or a premium one...

Read some article last night about some 'spy shots' of a 3080. Not sure how real/likely those are though.

That does look cool - never heard of that before?

You're right. As much as I really like Assetto Corsa Competizione - it's a niche game. And niche games don't rake in the same amount of money. I've been trying to get a couple of races setup as a regular Thursday evening thing. I've no problems at all drumming up interest for PC2, but hardly...

All about the ping life... :LOL:

As with all powerline adapters - make sure you don't have them plugged into trailing sockets as many have surge filters that can affect the transfer of data. If you can - I'm a massive advocate of running cables. It can be a pain - but sometimes it can be very straight-forward. I'd certainly...

.....I'd be telling that "Perfect Corners" message to f**k right off as well.

WTF is with all the Mario Kart pickups on the circuit? Very early days - but I highly doubt I'd be keen for PC3 based on the above. I think I'll stick with ACC.

Total Annihilation is free over at GOG.... https://www.overclock3d.net/news/software/total_annihilation_is_currently_free_on_gog/1?fbclid=IwAR2ywCLVCJVnaFsKtNftgk0XcFgMQd7cr-L35sARwyUae7srZrBrJ0OC9po

Those running costs are similar to here, depending upon the insurance part. New drivers or those with convictions will likely to pay a lot more. Mine for argument's sake (and the fact that I'm 45 - lol) is almost a 50/50 split. The road duty (tax) for a 172 or 182 is currently £305 - around CHF...

I agree. Drove back from Venice a few years back and went through Switzerland. Some of my best memories were seeing the location of various houses way up on hillsides - thinking 'how the hell have they built that up there?'. And of course, being overtaken in the several tunnels we drove through...

Borderlands - The Handsome Collection is currently free on Epic.

Seen it advertised, but not tried it. Is it purely PvP and not PvE?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - you B1TCH!! 😂

Same view as me to be honest - it really would have to get silly expensive before I'd give it up. The most likely issue we'll face with the internal combustion engine - is the reduction with the petrol station network. The large corporations that deliver and provide these fuels, usually within...

This popped up on the Steam Spring Cleaning list for me. Yep - guess what doesn't use Steam Cloud for saves.... or at least it didn't back then. That said, I am tempted to go back into it. Such a great experience and I think I'll appreciate it more this time around, rather than the fumbling...

It wouldn't shock me if the Govt. effectively bumped up the road duty to cover this as yet another measure of reducing ICE cars on the road. Drive an ICE car? See your road duty bumped up by a further £100 (minimum) as we have to pay for the install of a CCTV network across the MOT...

I guess there isn't really. Would have been nice if they could have somehow had a few more bolt fixing areas to keep them straighter. I can imagine the left side would be tricky though.

The painting is great - but it bugs me how these covers 'banana' in the middle. Mine is exactly the same as yours - lifting up at each edge, but nice and inline mid-way.

Should be entirely fixable that. I got ham-fisted on a motherboard swap that I did a while back - bent about four pins and thought I'd knackered it. Bent them back to where I thought they should be and re-sat the CPU. It still didn't progress past the BIOS POST. Took it out again and checked...
