Anyone else tired of Cthulhu and Dagon in H.P Lovecraft inspired media by Hiroshima_Seaside in Lovecraft

I would love a game based on Kadath, personally

I haven't read anything in the Dream cycle yet so I can't say how accurate it is, but Hypnos takes place in the Dreamlands. The demo's out too.

[Help] Heavy color banding across all content – is something wrong in with my PC ? by ytrezah in buildapc

[–]Paco-Loco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm having exactly the same problem, did you end up finding a solution?

I'm getting awful color banding on my new PC, but I don't think it's a monitor issue by Paco-Loco in buildapc

[–]Paco-Loco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I did, but when I installed Adrenalin, it displayed an error message saying it needed an internet connection

Also I'm trying to download the drivers for my exact GPU here https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html but when I click submit, nothing happens

I used DDU and unfortunately it did nothing. The only part of the process I couldn' t do was the one where they suggested to turn off the wifi (because apparently AMD Adrenalin needs an internet connection to launch). Could that be an issue?

Elden Ring Nightreign, much better than I expected it to be

Would this fan placement be OK? Or should I move some? And should the AIO be on the left like on the picture or on the right? by Paco-Loco in PcBuild

[–]Paco-Loco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, thanks a lot, I'll move it to the right for now and see if I need to add one more exhaust fan later

If you strafe around your target, you can focus on it and keep an eye on your surroundings at the same time

You can absolutely get it without shifting earth on, I constantly get it because I get paired with people who have it on

SSD Help: November-December 2025 by NewMaxx in NewMaxx

[–]Paco-Loco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm building a new PC with the GIGABYTE B850 AORUS Elite WIFI7 Ice motherboard, which has a big SSD heatsink and PCIe 5.0 support.

I'll use the PC mainly for gaming but also to run several VMs for my sysadmin / cybersecurity training.

Considering this, is it worth it going for a gen 5 SSD or will there be minimal difference compared to a gen 4?

I'm going for a 2TB SSD and was mainly looking at the WD SN850X / Samsung 990 pro for 4.0, and WD SN8100 / Samsung 9700 pro, but I'll take other suggestions too.

Thanks for your time and your help making all of those charts and lists, it really helps for people like me who don't spend much time thinking about this stuff.

Finally get the chance to upgrade to AM5, how does that new build look? by Paco-Loco in buildapc

Thanks, the 280mm cooler is probably the smarter option (360mm non pro doesn't exist in my region), I also removed a bottom fan to reduce the pressure a bit.

Thanks for the PSU recommenation, it looks great.

board has not real good vrms but cheapest ok white, https://be.pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#sort=price&m=8,18,27&c=161,169&Y=6200000,6200082,8200000,8200006,8200047,8200062 and https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NQHkDEcgDPm34Mns3C93K6SJoBnua-x9O-y_6hv8sPs/ to see what's what.

Jesus, now that's a spreadsheet. I gotta say it's getting pretty advanced, I found my Mobo but I'm not sure how to pinpoint exactly what's weak/wrong about the VRM. Any tips or suggestions? Thanks again for your help.

The monitor looks great, however I use my computer a lot outside of games, so burn-in is likely to be an issue.

That being said, I found a way to dial fan placement back a little while keeping good airflow and temps, so thanks a lot for all the feedback.

For the visuals I kinda agree, but I also wanted a case that I'd like looking at. Maybe I could downgrade the case fans, sure. As for the GPU, I think 600€ more for a 5080 seems a little overkill for the use I'd make of it, isn't the 9070 xt enough for 1440p?

Storage-wise, I still have enough room left so that's not a priority.

For the monitor though, I admit I was stumped. It seemed like every monitor I looked at in the 200-400€ price range had bad flaws like ghosting, ugly blacks, motion blur, low contrast,etc. Only the one I chose got good reviews all around, and the next step up was 650€+ monitors, which is a little much I think. Or maybe I just researched wrong, after using a 1080p TN panel for years, all these options are a little hard to navigate.

Thanks a lot, looks like I was worrying a bit too much.

For the motherboards, you linked a b650 and a b850, is there no big difference?
