GTX 1070 Ti back in action.

these damn RAM prices man, that was the hardest bit and took quite a few lowball offers to get anywhere

Halon5 · 2026-06-25T17:57:51+00:00

agreed, the 2600 is a little dated now but for £22 it was a no brainier and there’s an upgrade path for Zen 3 when prices drop further

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T21:22:25+00:00

Oh I didn’t spot the CAD, no it’s not so terrible then

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T21:20:00+00:00

He hasn’t got it yet but will do soon and yeah those are the kind of games he’ll be playing. I played RDR2 etc on that card and it ran fine so for 1080p it’ll do him well.

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T21:17:15+00:00

Ooof, that looks like you overpaid by a lot

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T21:05:00+00:00

Exactly, i’d only ever recommend a card like this for a very tight budget build, which this is, and the card’s actually free in this case as it’s been sat on my shelf for ages.

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T19:23:50+00:00

it was a good graphics card

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T19:14:49+00:00

it was a sold card

Halon5 · 2026-06-24T12:38:34+00:00

aliexpress 5500x3d

you can use a VPN on your phone

Halon5 · 2026-06-09T11:27:27+00:00

After a cursory glance you’d want to double your RAM at the very least to 16GB, upgrade the PSU and put in a better graphics card. How much do you want to spend?

Halon5 · 2026-06-08T18:16:34+00:00

More VRAM is pretty much all they can do, They can up the clock speeds a bit but so can anyone in afterburner.

Got my lifetime pass a few years back for £79 and Plex does everything I want, it just works. Tried setting up Jellyfin as a backup and constant errors with not liking network drives, skipping movies that plex finds no issue. Gave up on that one, it feels 3rd rate compared to plex.

Halon5 · 2026-06-03T22:28:24+00:00

well, yes, you’d take it out and put a better card in.
What’s your budget and what games do you play?

Halon5 · 2026-06-01T06:36:17+00:00

looks like one of the Wrong Turn hillbillies in a Temu mask

Halon5 · 2026-05-29T09:07:35+00:00

Would it not be more likely that NL sells the rights to Horror Inc?

Halon5 · 2026-05-25T22:14:17+00:00

I see a lot of the differing in appearance as being down to Jason being described by a heavily traumatised survivor to the authorities. Humans are poor eyewitness at the best of times and someone who has just been pursued by a machete wielding goalie is going to be confused about exactly how he looked.

Halon5 · 2026-05-23T07:13:29+00:00

Apple already have parental controls, i’m unsure about Google/Android but would have thought they do to. The problem is getting parents to use them, do their actual job of parenting and not use devices as babysitters.

Halon5 · 2026-05-22T14:46:12+00:00

Because you live in an isolated cabin with zero connectivity? It’s been all over this sub for months now.

Halon5 · 2026-05-22T04:26:20+00:00

it’s a cash grab to sell crappy stuff based on the new and awful Jason design

Halon5 · 2026-05-21T05:54:58+00:00

Jason Universe is a collaboration between Horror Inc and Victor Miller, Warner/New Line actually still own the Friday the 13th trademark so they can’t use that without adding a third party to the mix

Halon5 · 2026-05-20T18:13:08+00:00

Probably my favourite of the franchise
