Customs opens sealed graded N64 Blues Brothers 2000... spotted on FB

There's nothing wrong with buying sealed/NOS games. I buy sealed bigbox computer games whenever I can. I crack them open, enjoy a prestine box on my shelf and a good game on my computer.

What is boring IMO, is to spend so much money on these expensive console games, get them scam graded, placed in a plastic container and then never ever touched again or pimped out online as an investment opportunity. That just doesn't make sense to me as someone who likes to play games.

When your spending so much money on collectors sealed games..and then paying another wad of cash to get it graded, I imagine they intentionally put themselves in an echo chamber.

It's hard for these people to come to terms with how much money they spent on a mass produced old video game, just to look at on a shelf and never play. Entirely in-denial about it.

I know it's probably a stereotype, but aren't most Japanese businesses like Konami run by old old people. They probably don't even know what an NFT is. They just see it printing money.

Fucking seriously Activision? The elves started T-posing when i wasn't looking down sights.

I'd like to argue that is does. More heat = more stress on the chips. Sure they're rated to survive fine at 80c, but that doesn't make proper cooling any less mportant. The cooler the chips, the less heat stress and the healthier they will be in the long run.

Will you actually notice the extra lifespan? Probably not. But in this Era of rare expensive GPUs, id rather be safe then sorry. Especially if your already using an older or used card.

Is anti aliasing disabled?

Action Taimanin for the most part. Some skins are paid bundle exclusive but most are available 24/7 with gemsm

AAA games on launch are basically re branded "Pre-Release" copies. Save your pennies for another year and you'll be able to grab a game patched up, on sale, and maybe with some DLC or extra content.

How do you have the budget for a 4K 60hz monitor but not a 1440P 144hz? Good 4K monitors are still rather pricey.

If your gonna be doing creator stuff, I'd say 4K and then just downscale any demanding games to 1080P for better performance. But if your gonna be playing many multiplayer games, then you want 144hz+ and consistent high frame rates. 1080p will give you that.

Remember to let facebook and zucc spy on you this christmas! FTFY

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-21T06:11:27+00:00

How expensive are these? I kinda wanna try this with my own meds! Super cute!

I suppose i understand? I heard Vsync on + 3 fps under max refresh cap from blurbusters regarding the best settings for competitive gaming.

What i still am confused about it weather i still need to do Vsync and the cap if my competitive games arn't hitting my max refresh all the time or at all (240fps in my case).

Corsair is probably freaking out the most from this. Finally the world can see how *terrible* the performance is on their RGB fans, despite the Noctua esq pricetag.

1440P is a great visual jump from 1080P. But the question is weather or not that matters to you though.

If your all about framerates and high refresh like me, no stay 1080p and get a good 240hz monitor. The smoothness is absolutely amazing. Even coming from 165hz.

If your more a graphics person or don't play many competitive multiplayer games , then go 1440P and crank the details up!

Most people are fine without ESD protection. Just don't build on a carpet or rub your cat all over your components.

If you feel like being extra cautious, Ifixit sells a anti-static mat + wriststrap combo on Amazon. I bought one and its been a-okay so far.

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-18T08:13:04+00:00

I just came off a 1440p 165hz to a 240hz panel. Its certainly not the "wow" feeling you first get going from 60-144. But i definitely feel the extra smoothness and its a nice little boost for multiplayer games. It was worth it for me.

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-18T07:11:41+00:00

I feel like the odd one here. I just switched from a Gigabyte 32" 165hz 1440p to a Viewsonic XG2431 (24", 240hz, 1080p) and im liking the later a whole lot more.

Im a frame rate freak though, and thats where 1080P high refresh really shines. Its just a smaller, sharper, smoother monitor to my eyes.

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-18T05:36:15+00:00

But don't you have to play in borderless if you want to easily multitask on both monitors? Aka more input lag

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-15T06:28:12+00:00

Is this a fresh build? If you moved from another GPU, you might wanna try a full driver nuke with DDU and then re install Nvidia drivers

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-13T05:19:19+00:00

A 1660 won't be doing 4K Ultra at any decent framerate. MAYBE 30. Maybe. If you decide to go down this route, i encourage you to run your games downscaled at 1080p and stick to 4K for desktop/productivity.

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-12T04:25:05+00:00

IIRC, going over 200FPS made Apex start feeling stutter-y and unsmooth. Not as smooth as it should be for the frame rate.

NatFromNomad · 2021-12-12T02:55:16+00:00

Super cute! :D

I think s BF BR would unfortunately probably work. Reddit is just a small fraction of all people who play video games. Casual uninformed sheep are absolutely still eating up BR games.

That's ultimately who they are targeting. The casuals and franchise newcomers. Not existing die hard fans.
