The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

[R3k1355]

That’s the thing with these drives, the speeds they can do are ridiculous, even a ‘slow’ one is faster than most people will ever need, and would certainly struggle to see the difference.

Still 5k Mbps read lol.

Yea it may be the slower model of the WD Black line, but the WD Blue line run at 3000 read/write, and models by some other brands are around 2000, so it's still much faster.
Kingston are offering a line at 7000+ read/write 😲

I'm guessing it's for use in a PC and not PS5? It's just Sony recommend a heatsink around the M2 for use in the console.

Wash your mouth out and check the thread title

(yup would be for PC, although still procrastinating on it! Think I paid £240 for a 1TB nvme 5 years ago )

it’s true, I had to sell my ps4 and ps5 before my ban for this topic was lifted.

im one of the cool kids again.. pc’s are lit again, no cap..

 

[R3k1355]

I've both, and I prefer to play the PC using the controller from the Playstation.

I'll leave the front door on the latch, so the hard drive checkers can let themselves in.

Controller on PC? So many snow flakes/cheaters on here….

I'll start using controller on PC for single player games (RDR2/Cyberpunk) bit overkill using K&M and with vehicles etc a controller is much better. Ever tried GTA on K&M? f**king woeful lol.

 

[dangerous dave]

Anyone stuck a much newer 3080/6900 gpu on a much older cpu? Like a i58600k

just wondering how many frames for games before the bottleneck kicks in at higher detail.

i could possibly stick a better cpu in my z370, but I don’t wanna. I need the spare cash for aimbot and wallhack software.

Yeah I couldn’t be bothered to mention that you are part of the non aim assist pro list.

Not yet. I've mainly bought this for racing - though I have heard a lot of good reviews about Alyx.

Both those purposes will knock your socks off

Must admit I play 90% of stuff with a controller these days, but multiplayer FPS no way. I stream most stuff to the livingroom via Gamestream (which NV are removing from ShieldTV as of February in order to force people onto Geforce Now, the c***s).

Attempted to try the trial, game wouldn’t start because of the new anti cheat or whatever it is. Kept telling me that secure boot isn’t enabled, even though it is 🤷🏻‍♂️

I played every FIFA until this year

Just the same s**t game recycled. I'm hoping since EA lost the rights that it will be better in the future... I mean it can't get any worse unless the makers of WZ2 had a go

f**k that. Can you imagine have to score a goal so you could get your loadout of a pair of predators with uprated laces and studs, and perks like speed boost.

 

[GiT]

Controller on PC is fine for driving games - unless you have a wheel.

Shoot'ems, it's got to be Mouse and keyboard, surely?

Nonces.

Anyone want an X570 Prime Pro / 5800X ?

 

[SharkyUK]

Anyone want an X570 Prime Pro / 5800X ?

Let me call my mate... he's looking to upgrade.

 

[charltjr]

I did something stupid. Again.

I fancied doing a case transplant as I don't like the XPS case at all.

Then I decided I wanted to upgrade the motherboard, because the Dell one is pap and won't even let me enable XMP. I don't need more memory performance, it just annoys me that I can't have it.

Then I decided what I really fancied was doing a small form factor build as I've never tried that, so I bought a mini-ITX case and a mini-ITX motherboard.

Then I bought a CPU cooler which would fit in the mini-ITX case, because the current one is too tall.

Then I remembered the Dell PSU is non standard, so I bought a new PSU.

Then I found the physical size of the SSD was too small for the motherboard as Dell use the really tiny laptop ones. Obviously just getting one of the £10 kits off Amazon to make it longer wasn't acceptable so I was literally forced to buy a new 2Tb SSD. Literally. Forced.

Actual bits being carried over? CPU. Graphics card.

Should have just bought a new PC

Did the exact same thing when I upgraded my CPU. The only things that carried over were a hard drive and the GPU, and the GPU was also replaced within a month 😂

 

[Daz...]

Sounds like a standard case upgrade to me.

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Funnily enough all my old components are in my old case, not my new one. 🤷‍♂️

 

[charltjr]

CPU cooler is missing from my delivery. Company say they are overwhelmed with customer queries because of postal strikes so give them four days to respond to emails about missing items. 🤷‍♂️

I also ordered an ATX power supply by mistake. For some reason my brain translated the "RMx" in the part number to SFX.

This is going very well.

 

[charltjr]

Really enjoyed it in the end!

Case was great to work in, everything went smoothly, a genuinely enjoyable build.

Only job left to do is swap out the top fans for some Noctuas I have in the other case, as the ones supplied with this are a little bit louder than I’d like.
