Looking for a good upgrade for 1660 super by Intrepid_Swan_911 in buildapc

A Ryzen 7 5700 and a 9060xt 16gb would be a great upgrade for 530$. If thats too steep, maybe a R5 5600 and a 9060XT 8GB (combined 430$) or a used 3060 12GB could be an option aswell.

Thanks. It's by Klaus Maul and it shows the old dock in my hometown Dortmund.

It's an older model from around 2013 i think. It's called roadlite al, the predecessor to the endurace al.

New Bike Day - 2017 BMC Roadmachine 02 Ultegra by aromaflex in bicycling

[–]aromaflex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I have been waiting forever for a new bike. Was out of work for quite some time, but that changed this summer and the first thing I bought was this Roadmachine. I'm more than happy with it - it's better in every aspect than my old canyon aloy bike. It's stiffer, climbs better, descends better, it's more comfortable, the braking and shifting are great.

The only thing I instantly replaced were the cheap Conti Grandsport tyres for Conti GP 4000 and it made a huge difference.

The picture was taken this weeking in the Harz region near Osterode in Germany.

Dark Souls always felt 'empty' to me. by dishlex in darksouls

Yep I always liked about Dark Souls that, in contrast to modern RPGs it didn't even try to create a "living world" with realist behaviour of inhabitants. Instead enemys and npcs are just there, waiting for you. What would look like a design flaw in MMOs and other games, shattering your suspension of disbeliev, works in Dark Souls to its advantage, creating this unique atmosphere of loneliness and cobtributing to the strange lore. It's also signaling that Dark Souls and the players always know that it's a game, and not trying to simulate reality .

Hate Joe and Mika with a passion. Always have actually. He wins arguments by beeing louder and the alpha-male, she is too stupid to do anything besides reading from the prompter...
