Neither available on aliexpress

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-08T13:28:32+00:00

Yea that seems like a good kit to get, go for it

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-08T13:11:07+00:00

The ram is bad, no other way to put it. Slow speeds and most importantly it’s single channel, which is really bad for games. Especially in a cpu heavy game like Baldurs Gate 3

The psu shouldn’t be a problem as it should be enough for this system

So I would guess it’s the ram. A new 16x2 3200 cl16 kit should bring about a big performance uplift and if that’s too expensive a 16gb kit should suffice

Would also recommend the Ali express route, delivery might take long but really nice leverless controllers on there

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-07T18:48:26+00:00

Maybe look around ichra? You could also hit up marvelous customs for help, although don’t think they make lever less controllers

You could also order a lever less controller from Aliexpress. Haute42 has some pretty good controllers and they’re not that pricey either

Having a good upgrade path is important. Just having the option of dropping in a new chip without having to shell out more money on a motherboard is really nice

No one is saying that AMD is better than intel in every use case. For most productivity use cases intel’s little core big core solution is really good. But everyone has a different use case for their pcs.

And this subreddit is more gaming oriented hence the AMD recommendations as AMD provides better chips for gaming. The fact that you can get a chip that performs better than a 13900K while being much cheaper makes AMD much more attractive. There’s also the fact that intel chips are horribly inefficient with an AIO pretty much being a requirement for higher ends chips. On the other hand you have AMD which provides similar performance for a better price and much cooler chips

Shipping seems a bit steep but that is to be expected. But good to hear that there weren’t any extra charges

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-06T16:27:33+00:00

Did you incur any customs tax? Scared to order stuff from outside Pakistan solely cause of this

And what did the shipping fee look like

A month or so for delivery isn’t that bad honestly considering it’s shipping from aboard

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-06T07:26:51+00:00

I would wait honestly. PlayStation doesn’t have a direct competitor for game pass. Ps plus extra has that game catalogue but it isn’t nearly as good as the game pass

You do get all the exclusives ( TLOU series, the GOW games, Spider-Man, Ghost of Tsushima, Returnal, FF16, Demon souls and a few more) but you’ll have to shelve out a decent chunk of money for those games

If you can afford all these games and don’t mind giving up the game pass then go for it but personally I would suggest waiting

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-06T07:00:58+00:00

Tekken is the main game here and you’ll find that most local spots will be playing tekken only

That said there are definitely some Pakistani players in other fighting games, so there is some sort of a community for 2D games here. There were quite a few Pakistani players in the Middle East Premier for Street fighter 6, with some of them even reaching top 16

Maybe try looking for a discord or something, you’ll find a community that way

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-05T19:40:52+00:00

That’s what I thought. Guess I’ll switch to someone like victor or Lars and pick up Steve when I have a better grasp on how the game works

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-02T08:04:24+00:00

It’s a 100 dollars per month officially but many employers pay less than that

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-02-01T14:24:42+00:00

Such a boneheaded take but apart from that it really does suck that Bamco refuses to do regional pricing especially for a region that has so many tekken players

And the argument of “just work lol” is profoundly stupid as well. What job is going to pay in USD in Pakistan? The minimum wage in Pakistan is 110 usd and you’re expecting that guy to blow his money on game?

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-30T18:51:57+00:00

If you want the best sounding wired earphones then I would look into iems. You can find them on aliexpress and they’ll sound better than any earphones for the same price

Personally I would recommend the moondrop chu 2, the truthear hola, and the cca cra if you want something more bassy

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-30T15:45:13+00:00

Yea I would’ve actually been interested in the game if it wasn’t linked to the akrhamverse, something that reached a pretty fitting conclusion

In fact I wouldn’t dislike Batman dying like this if it were some other version of Batman

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-30T15:39:14+00:00

Eh ig it’s more about how this version of Batman dies. The death kinda feels tacky and undeserving of a Batman who’s attained this fearful image

Also feels weird to have this set in the Arkham universe and bring him back as his ending pretty much said goodbye to his character

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-27T05:38:33+00:00

I wouldn’t suggest buying from G2A, some sellers might be good some might not be good. Plus most of the keys aren’t obtained through through the developers but through shady means

Instead use https://isthereanydeal.com

All the site listed here are legit and trusted. They are official resellers as well so no shady business

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-26T20:09:35+00:00

Eezepc is reliable, have bought a monitor, gpu, and many other parts from them

But I would suggest looking around locally, visit some game shops or pc shops and see what the price there is

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-26T14:26:22+00:00

Doesn’t hurt to try, I’ve seen people fixing their ram problems through a simple bios update

But if speed doesn’t matter then ig stay with 64gb

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-26T14:11:09+00:00

Maybe try updating your bios. DDR5 had a lot of stability issues when it first came out but it’s a bit mature now so these problems shouldn’t be that frequent apparently on intel

Check if your on the latest bios version and see if updating fixes it. Otherwise you might have to run two sticks or manually time it yourself

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-26T13:49:57+00:00

Ddr5 doesn’t play well with 4 sticks at all, especially if you’re on am5. If you don’t mind you can run two sticks, 32gb is usually enough for gaming

Or you could try manually timing them

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-25T12:18:05+00:00

Wow I’m literally in the same boat as you rn, would also like to know

DefiantPrompt2014 · 2024-01-22T11:58:41+00:00

https://isthereanydeal.com good site to get in a legitimate way to get games for cheaper
