    A good combat flight sim?

    That's one of the big draws with Warframe for me. Only a small fraction of the game is PvP - and can be totally ignored, if you so wish. I tried it once - killed a few and died a lot. Just pointless - especially up against the Mastercard Kiddies who rinse their parental's credit card and have...

    Anyone handy with Visio? I've got a simple question...

    Sussed it - it adds another 'window' to the worksheet that can then be selected and edited.

    Anyone handy with Visio? I've got a simple question...

    Pretty much new to it - just dabbled with a few basic flow charts. I can't seem to be able to edit the Title header when I insert a Border & Title. It must be a really straight-forward fix - but I can't see it and Google hasn't been much help! Cheers, D.

    A good combat flight sim?

    I can believe that. I tried the tank side of the game and my standard rounds had the equivalent damage as chucking tomatoes at the enemy....

    A good combat flight sim?

    I remember those from back in the day, Andy. They did the Operation Overlord games, didn't they? Looked very good for their time, iirc too. The original Falcon by Spectrum Holobyte was jaw-dropping at the time. I remember having my trusty 'ol C64 and my m8 having Falcon on his Amiga. The...

    A good combat flight sim?

    Have you tried War Thunder? Free to download - quite arcadey in feel - but full of active players. You can either play in tank vs tank battles - or go in the air - take on other fighter aircraft or go in the ground attack role against the tanks. Depends how heavy-duty to want to go. There are...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Could be tricky m8! :P I do want to try some testing for the lolz though. Like the Quake3 engine or something similar. I tried the original Medal of Hono(u)r from 2002 the other day and as soon as I maxed the settings out, the bottom half of the screen went black. Clearly the concept of SLi...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Connected the monitor properly last weekend. Now have the full Quad-SLi recognised, rather than the 3-Way SLi as seen above. I love just how pointless having four GPUs in one PC actually is! :tongueout:

    Mortal Kombat X

    Brilliant! So wrong - yet clearly the devs had fun creating these!

    Steering rack bushes worn?

    I wouldn't have thought a steering rack would make cracking noises on acceleration or braking though? I know the heat shield on my rack was catching and making a noise - it still does slightly now tbh. Either that, or my rack is on the way out!

    Advice Required on Small Form PC

    Does look good for the money. I like the fact that it still retains iLo functionality. I just haven't got the need for a media server at home - I never have. Yet.

    Back in the game!

    Welcome back!

    Star Wars Battlefront

    Hopefully EA won't screw it up.......... hmmmmmm. I'd really like a true follow-up to Republic Commando. That was a superb game for its time.

    [PC/XBone/PS4] Warframe

    Having maxed out the Volt Warframe, I'm nearly there with the Nekros as well. Polarised and with the four skills maxed, it's a very good support class Warframe... I think only the arrival of GTAV for the PC could divert me from this at the minute!

    [Next Gen/PC] GTA V

    Nothing like mouse smoothing or acceleration enabled by default, is there?

    [Next Gen/PC] GTA V

    Looking forward to using K&M on this, tbh. Driving on the 360 version was great with the pad and walking about wasn't too bad. But I couldn't aim for s**t with the guns - frustratingly so.

    Mot Fail CV Gaiter insecure

    The CV boots on these are a joke. Such a flimsy method of staying attached to a hub that is forever pulling on one side or the other. Then nice, warm CV grease drips out of the boot onto the inside of the front alloys. That cools (or gets splattered all around the alloy if its moving) and starts...

    PGA Tour Golf (Tiger Woods/Rory McIlroy)

    My first golf game was on the Atari 2600 - and yep, it was crap! I had one on the C-64, but can't remember the name of it. The one I played the most was the original PGA Tour Golf on the Amiga - along with the expansion packs. I then switched that game to the PC and although I tried the Links...

    [Next Gen/PC] GTA V

    Ah - cheers Andy - I didn't know that - but I guess it makes sense. Bah! :)

    [Next Gen/PC] GTA V

    The only two platforms I use at the minute are Steam - Unzen and Origin occasionally - which I think is the same, though I'll have to check! :)

    [Next Gen/PC] GTA V

    The whole multi-GPU thing varies massively on make, model and drivers. My single GTX690 (which is two GTX680 GPUs on one card) played one of the later Metro games brilliantly - with most of the bells and whistles on. Then bit by bit (over a period of about 10 minutes) - the game got...

    Pigeons, FFS

    In this day and age, it should get some royalties, at least.

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Have 4 & 5K monitors really got a bad rep at the minute? Read the article in the back of this month's Custom PC and the bloke was saying that through the DisplayPort - they suffer extremely bad screen tearing? Can anyone vouch for this?

    A better spec monitor is definitely my next purchase. Might be a while off yet, though....

    New toy on its way...

    I think out of the box, the 20V Turbo was circa 220bhp? That 5-pot sounded brilliant when allowed to sing too.

    New toy on its way...

    Nice purchase! I nearly jumped in on a part-ex deal with my Punto GT on one of these, back in about 2000. It was red too - strangely not a colour you see them in often? The only reason I bailed was that the garage offered me peanuts for the GT - I actually got more for it in private sale 4 years...

    My Audi A3

    I've never been a fan of those BBS wheels on anything. They look too 'fussy'. Those Turinis however..... :)

    Temporary brake leak fix?

    As you're running a 172 Cup with no ABS - it's a no brainer as it's cheap to sort. Pretty much any garage worth it's salt would be able to rectify the leak.

    [PC/XBone/PS4] Warframe

    73 hours in now. Definitely one of the titles that I've put the most amount of time into on Steam.
