What a pisser. Rant warning. :angry:
So I get the Steam Link up and running with Diablo 3 on the TV - very easy and surprisingly fuss-free given that I'm streaming a Blizzard game though the Steam front end.
Pick up the XBox One pad that's connected - nothing. All I get is a mouse pointer on...
Ended up buying the new Necromancer expansion yesterday - mainly due to it being the best class in Diablo 2 and it's the class I pick on any fantasy/RPG type game.

Even better is the wife wants to play this through again as we never...
Andy - it's not the spec of your GSync cable is it? I had black screens aplenty when using DisplayPort initially on my PC. Swapped the cable for another and it's been flawless since.
Unlikely - but it's worth a shot before the hassle of returning it.
I guess in the real world, they have to be seen to be making some form of 'eco' effort - though I suspect they don't have to make it so obvious.
Putting it bluntly, maximising MPGs and having zero emissions is hardly the top of list of priorities for the usual M buyer. Such things as...
That's my noise - though admittedly not as bad as yours! Mine does it within a short turn of either left or right and doesn't have the lob, drawn out noise that yours does.
I'm glad in a selfish way to know that yours is going into Birchdown soon. I'm planning early August and whatever you get...
Does look good that. Must be a total change in your approach to driving from the 172. :smiley:
You can tell that manufacturers are in a state of mild panic in terms of portraying their performance-related image, these days. On the one dial, you have a nice 'M' badge in pride of place - but we...
Lol - looks similar in dimensions to the Zotac 1080 I installed in my nephew's PC. That thing actually started to bend under its own weight on the overhang. Managed to cable-tie it straight - looks awful, but does the job.
Yep - similar to mine. Definitely worse in the drier/warmer weather. That said, I pulled into the Shell station in Darwen on the way to work this morning and it was creaking badly.
Pretty much 101% convinced it's steering rack area related. As others have said in this thread - that's going to...
Used to play a lot of the old PGA Tour games on the Amiga and Links 386 Pro (that's showing my age - lol!). I've never really enjoyed them much since - I think the swing mechanics (and putting especially) has definitely taken a backwards step.
If you're still in Blackburn - I'd love to meet up and know if the noise is the same as mine!
Hopefully getting it sorted on the next trip down to Birchdown.
I could mentally justify myself to have an Avantime. The Vel Satis? I think that's just a step too far. Maybe.
That said, the next time I pulled into a supermarket amongst a ocean of Audi and Nissan metal - I'd like to see the reaction of the massed sheep, when I stepped out of that.
"Yep...
I think it's the faffing about trying to output the screen image that will be a bit of a ballache these days. Having the HDMI out of this new console will be a major bonus!
Thanks @andy_coops for the total lack of pre-warning coming into this thread. Almost NSFW material.....!
And Nissan...... this is what Nismo should be adorned upon. Not those spunk-mop Juke abortions for buyers who haven't got a frigging clue.
Still cracks me up that the same creative genius...
Apparently they are more 'profitable' to have a set period of time where all the discounted titles are on offer. I'm with you though - I much preferred the flash & daily sales method.
Btw - anyone considering the rather excellent Steam Link - they are currently down to £11.99. Unfortunately...
Not really sure m8! I bought it purely for a technical reason in that it was one of the first dedicated DX12 titles and would have been good for benchmarking my quad-SLi system.
Needless to say, it ran like crap with a lot of eye-candy turned off. Once I put the single 1080 in, all was fine...
Thanks @Rojer - it's my daily, but its fair to say that I drive it fairly enthusiastically. As speed is pretty much pointless these days with cameras, traffic, and so on - I'm much more focused on keeping the handling in good form. And being over twelve years old now, there are going to be parts...
Has anyone got any experience of the full Powerflex handling pack?

Is it over-priced/not much use? Or really worth the money for refreshing the tired bushes?
Cheers,
