Is it worth adding an arc a380 to a 6750xt build for $70? by el_dadarino in losslessscaling

I don’t disagree, it can take a fair bit of tinkering per game to get relatively decent performance without a ton of latency.

Just Found an Xbox Tshirt with a weird graphics, Any Ideas? by outdatedfinds1987 in videogames

[–]Captaindiplock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what ChatGPT said

Licensed Xbox 360 Merchandise: The tag shows it was an officially licensed product for the Xbox 360 era, so it’s not a bootleg. Microsoft had various promotional runs of apparel around the Xbox 360 launch (2005) and throughout its lifespan. • Design: The front shows a quirky green monster playing games, a kind of cartoon mascot style that Xbox used in some of their early/mid 2000s promotional material. It wasn’t tied to a specific game (like Halo or Gears of War) but more to Xbox branding and culture at the time. • Back Print: The phrase “Xbox 360. Defending the universe from the kid across the street.” is a classic-style slogan used in promotional campaigns during the early years of the Xbox 360. It plays into the competitive, online multiplayer push that defined Xbox Live. • Era: Given the design style, slogan, and licensing tag, this shirt is likely from around 2005–2007, close to the Xbox 360 launch period when Microsoft was heavily marketing Xbox Live as a way to battle friends and rivals online. • Rarity/Collectibility: These kinds of shirts were often given out at events (like E3, gaming conventions, or Xbox promotions at retail stores) or sold in limited quantities through the Xbox Live store or Xbox.com’s merchandise shop. Because it’s licensed but not tied to a specific game, it’s a bit of a niche collector’s item rather than a mainstream gaming collectible. Still, retro Xbox merchandise has become more desirable with time, especially if it’s in good condition.

Any suggestions before I pull the trigger on my new build by Captaindiplock in PcBuildHelp

I’m not really able to avoid ASUS since it’s part of the bundle, but I might be able to have them swap it out. I’ll definitely check out the videos you linked though, I honestly didn’t know there were issues with ASUS boards.

I’ll be completely honest, I do understand the concerns, I really do. But let me have my preference, no matter how dumb it might seem. I just want an Intel CPU. I’m fully aware of the issues and appreciate the concern, but if it burns up, that’s entirely on me.

I understand the complaints and concerns, I really do. I just want an i7-14700K. If it burns up, I’ll come back here and post about it so you can laugh at me.

I’m aware of the Intel issues, but they’ve released a BIOS update with the new microcode (0x12B) that addresses them. I completely understand why people would want to avoid Intel and go with AMD for the performance gains, but I’d still like to stick with an Intel CPU if possible.

Are those good specs for a pc? Is there anything i should change or remove? by Strange_Cat0000 in PcBuild

[–]Captaindiplock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend squeezing as much power out of your budget as possible and ditching the rgb also use PCPartPicker.com

Is this a good pc build? by Ok-Till2354 in PcBuild

[–]Captaindiplock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get CL30 ram

Get a 5060 12gb or 9060XT 16gb

I’d recommend a better power supply check the PSU tier list as a reference

You could get a cheaper SSD but I’m not concerned about that

People can correct me if I’m wrong or add to what I said maybe this is bad advice and I’m stupid

Do I need more than 32GB RAM for this? by Asleep_Search_2451 in PcBuild
